=== tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter [01:41] RAOF, some X questions. a) Does the X server have any system for setting the default configuration? b) Debian seems to have /etc/default/keyboard, but I think that's not standard, it does have four environment variables - are they standard? c) Is this file even used to set up X at all in the current setup? [01:42] robert_ancell: What do you mean by ¨default configuration¨? [01:43] Ah. Keyboard layout setup? [01:43] RAOF, default keyboard configuration - does X do anything special when these aren't specified explicitly in Xorg.conf [01:44] I don't believe so. [01:45] I *think* that it inherits it from the kernel VT. [01:47] Itś also possible that gdm is reading it from somewhere else; I don't believe that it's reading from /etc/default/keyboard, though. [01:48] RAOF, GDM doesn't care, because it uses gnome-session which sets the layout to what you've configured [01:48] Oh yay, the mountain of email after coming back from a week off. The only part I don't like about taking time off. :) [01:50] robert_ancell: Hm. Have you checked out /etc/gdm/Init/Default? That appears to extract the XKB* environment variables and then set the X keymap from them. [01:51] Oh, no. I'm misinterpreting that grep [01:53] RAOF, that just does completely weird stuff. I can't work out what it's doing [01:54] From the comments and code it looks like it's trying to port the XKB configuration from GDM's X server to the server itś spawning for the session. [02:07] robert_ancell: Bah! Of course, the keyboard layout information hangs off the /dev/input/event? node as udev properties. I knew that! [02:08] RAOF, so what does that mean... [02:11] X gets the default configuration from the udev properties. [02:13] RAOF, and that is overridden if config is set in XOrg.conf? [02:14] Yes. Xorg.conf always wins. [02:15] Or, now, itś udev → /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/* → /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/* → /etc/X11/xorg.conf [02:15] Hm. deadkeys suck :) [02:21] Yay for people opening a new bug to ask for an older bug to be re-opened... [02:22] The inevitable side-effect of having terminal bug states. [02:32] * TheMuso is continually disappointed by motherboard manufacturers not filling in all of the dmi fields for their boards. [02:40] RAOF, http://paste.ubuntu.com/611649/ [02:41] TheMuso: To Be Filled In By OEM is a *prolific* hardware vendor :) [02:42] robert_ancell: Youǘe been VT switching? [02:42] RAOF, maybe [02:43] I think I may have seen a patch for this problem… [02:44] Oh, no. That VT switch thing is probably a subsequent error. [02:44] heh, I have seen ASUS and ASRock be inconsistant with their data so far. [02:45] robert_ancell: How often/when is that happening, and can you get a proper backtrace? [02:45] RAOF, I just triggered it running Unity though lightdm [02:46] RAOF, haven't tried to keep triggering, what do I need to do to get a nice backtrace [02:47] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Backtracing [02:48] Particularly the remote gdb bit. [04:02] * TheMuso sighs. [04:02] Yay for bugs where people report broken sound yet they have actually gone ahead and built newer pieces of the sound stack, breaking everything. :S [04:02] foot-gun ftw [04:03] Yup. [04:06] RAOF, I just can't get X to drop a core file, I've enabled apport, set ulimit -c unlimited, and looked in the current dir, /var/crash and /etc/X11 but it just doesn't seem to want to make one [04:07] is it crashing? [04:07] yup [04:07] Do I need to set NoTrapSignals as well? [04:07] How does apport normally detect crashes? [04:08] I think you need to, yes [04:32] The apport integration patch is a little bit hit and miss. [05:29] Good morning [05:30] robert_ancell, RAOF: I think cjwatson went through some efforts to have /etc/default/keyboard be the authoritative source for both console-setup and X.org [05:30] pitti: Yes, it is. [05:30] I'm not sure how it affects the X server, though [05:31] X reads the udev properties that get set up. [05:31] robert_ancell: apport crashes> when a process dumps core, the kernel calls it through /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern [05:31] I knew this, in a past life. I just needed reminding of it :) [05:31] RAOF: ah, right [05:31] so did I [05:32] RAOF, oh, if I set NoTrapSignals, the whole display systems seems to lock up, I guess when X catches a segfault there is a chance for cleanup? [05:33] brb [05:33] robert_ancell: There is, yes. That's why apport doesn't necessarily catch it; X does some unwinding, and then our apport patch causes it to (mostly/sometimes) re-raise the SEGV. [05:34] robert_ancell: I just attach gdb to X and be done with it; that always works :) [05:34] RAOF, ok, i'll try that [05:39] Morning pitti. [05:39] hey TheMuso [05:41] * TheMuso wonders how hardware enablement guys keep their sanity... [05:43] I'm currently catching up on email, and doing audio bug triage, and keep running into users who have filed bugs about a chipset that has been shown to be buggy, although it took 11.04/2.6.38 kernel to make it show up... [05:50] RAOF, course, it doesn't occur once I connect gdb... [05:50] Heh. [05:51] It's not just blocked waiting for you to respond to a signal? [05:58] nope [06:04] Oh, well. Yay heisenbug. [07:17] good morning everyone [07:17] hey chrisccoulson, had a nice weekend? [07:18] hi pitti. yeah, my weekend wasn't too bad thanks. did you have a nice weekend too? [07:19] chrisccoulson: oh yes; spent all Sunday with gardening work, and Saturday with some more unpacking boxes, and calling family and friends [07:19] Hey chrisccoulson. [07:20] pitti - sounds like you had quite a busy weekend ;) [07:20] hi TheMuso, how are you? [07:22] chrisccoulson: Not too bad thanks, spent just about all my work day today working on bug triaging, based on what I received in email. [07:23] heh, i need to spend some time bug triaging too ;) [07:49] good morning [07:51] bonjour didrocks, ca va? [07:52] pitti: guten morgen. I'm fine, thanks, and you? how was your week-end? [07:53] didrocks: lots of work in the garden and unpacking boxes, feeling my muscles :) so, pretty good [07:54] nice in some way ;) [07:58] G'Morning all! [07:59] hey Sweetshark, guten Morgen! wie gehts/ [07:59] ? [07:59] server reboot after upgrade to squeeze, brb [07:59] morning everyone [08:00] pitti: the workitem show only up in the burndown, if targeted against ubuntu and named desktop-o-*, right? [08:02] hey jasoncwarner [08:03] hey Sweetshark, jasoncwarner [08:05] morning didrocks [08:06] how was weekend,everyone? Very raining here [08:06] good morning jasoncwarner , didrocks , how are ya all? [08:07] jasoncwarner: cdbs: I'm fine here, thanks! Long week-end of 3 days, sunny again like the past 2 months :) [08:07] didrocks: Tomorrow's the SRU, still no accept [08:08] cdbs: I'm afraid I can't parse that? [08:08] didrocks: And, Unity guys aren't around yet [08:08] didrocks: I'm talking about the code for the quicklist crasher [08:08] its bugging UpdateManager on Oneiric (as of now) might affect others as well [08:09] cdbs: yeah, they didn't merge anything yet. Have you provided an example program to make it crash btw? [08:09] didrocks: yes, its attached to the bug [08:09] for natty if you want it to be in the SRU [08:09] nice, thanks, I didn't look at it, you should bug them to do their merging [08:11] * cdbs learns some poking techniques [08:11] pitti: the workitem show only up in the burndown, if targeted against ubuntu and named desktop-o-*, right? (repost because of pitti sneakily vanishing after greeting) [08:12] Sweetshark: targetted against ubuntu and assigned to someone in our team [08:12] the naming is largely irrelevant [08:12] erm, targetted to oneiric in particular [08:30] hum, interesting, gnome-session dep on gnome-shell in debian === tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter [09:08] hey seb128! [09:08] hey didrocks ;-) [09:08] hello desktopers [09:08] how are you? [09:09] I'm fine thanks, how are you? had a nice weekend? [09:09] yeah, very sunny, long walks in city/parks… took some fresh air. Was excellent! [09:10] great [09:11] bonjour seb128, ca va? [09:11] pitti, hey, ca va bien! et toi ? [09:12] seb128: je suis bien, merci! [09:12] seb128: FYI, gnome-icon-theme "only" grew by 0.4 MB after fixing it, so right now it's not a major issue [09:12] nice [09:12] seb128: it ballooned to 25 MB because the new .deb installed the icon cache [09:12] s/installed/shipped/ [09:13] oh ok [09:13] icon cache == png from svg or another cache? [09:13] great that is was only a bug ;-) [09:13] didrocks: /usr/share/icons/gnome/icon-theme.cache [09:13] didrocks, the mmap of the icons in theme [09:13] I think it's only for category/size lookup and uncompressing PNG [09:13] oh right, the mmap, thanks! [09:13] not svg [09:14] erk, libgnome-keyring 3.0.2. causes an nm-applet segfault; I didn't notice that at first :/ [09:14] * pitti debugs [09:31] seb128: small questions on mimetype: do you regularly refresh desktop-files-utils defaults.list base on gnome-session's one? (and also, how do you determine if you use the alias x- or the canonical name?) [09:31] the desktop spec isn't very verbose about that point [09:33] didrocks, no, I mostly ignore what debian does in gnome-session for those [09:33] didrocks, what canonical name? [09:34] like audio/x-flac (alias) and audio/flac (canonical name) [09:34] I don't see a pattern, both are sometimes define, sometimes only one, and so… [09:34] well the defaults.list should use whatever the application .desktop list [09:35] but I don't know the specifics either, I though it was the same than for desktop keys [09:35] i.e x- for non official ones [09:35] i would have think that, but sometimes both are defined, that's weird… [09:36] well maybe that's for compatability when it switched to the official type [09:36] to not break applications still defining the x- variant [09:36] yeah probably, was thinking as the spec uses the terms "alias", it would have been done at a higher level (gio or whatever) [09:37] yeah, I don't know either [09:37] no worry thanks seb128 :) [09:38] I'll add to desktop-file-utils the one which can be relevant from gnome-session to us [09:38] ok [09:40] hello everyone! i got a question: is gdm no longer supposed to take /etc/gdm/custom.conf into account? [09:41] how can I restore the unity panel back on top of the windows, after a ffox crash it remains below them [09:42] side panel [09:43] hey htorque [09:43] htorque, what version? [09:43] tjaalton, compiz --replace? [09:43] seb128, 2.32.1-0ubuntu3 in natty [09:44] htorque, no reason it shouldn't work [09:44] seb128: probably would work, though it would resize all my terminals [09:44] +also [09:44] seb128: forgot to bzr push desktop-file-utils ? [09:45] ups [09:45] didrocks, let me check [09:45] it has been a while [09:45] seb128, :-/ it says 'DefaultSession=unity-2d' but it always starts what was chosen last time, will try different sessions instead of unity-2d [09:45] htorque, do you have a session in .dmrc? [09:46] htorque, well "default" is what is used when you never selected a session [09:46] oh [09:46] otherwise it will use what you picked [09:46] (if you never changed your session, yeah) [09:47] didrocks, no, I cleaned my checkouts since, just commit whatever is in the archive to the vcs, sorry [09:47] seb128: no worry :) let me see what changed then [09:48] but it's not me who did the recent upload [09:48] it's mvo who sponsored something [09:48] seb128, yes, i have a session defined in ~/.dmrc - has it always worked this way? [09:48] htorque, yes [09:48] hm? [09:49] hey mvo [09:49] hey didrocks and seb128 [09:49] hey mvo ;-) [09:49] what package are we talking about? [09:49] yeah novody checked, you just missed the debcommit -r ; bzr push, but the next upload is not there [09:49] aha, desktop-file-utils? [09:49] let me readd that [09:50] seb128, wow, then i'm sorry for interrupting - i always thought whatever you set with gdmsetup becomes the new (default) session [09:51] it's the default session if you changed anything at the user level [09:51] didrocks, yeah, that was a misinterpretation on my end :) [09:52] htorque, no worry [09:52] seb128, didrocks: thanks for your time :) [09:52] yw :) [09:58] hi [10:01] hey rodrigo_ [10:04] hey rodrigo_, good morning [10:04] rodrigo_: FYI, I finally got g-p-m to build [10:05] pitti, ah, cool, why wasn't it building? [10:05] rodrigo_: missing dh-autoreconf (for your "drop control-center dependency" patch), and wrong libnotify b-dep [10:05] pitti, ah, ok [10:05] oh, and libappindicator3-dev was also missing [10:20] great, versions is less than 2 pages of updates to do [10:21] I guess panel etc. are still blocked by unity gtk3 migratin? [10:23] panel? [10:23] yes [10:24] gnome-applets gnome-panel gnome-menus [10:24] didrocks, to update those we need to update the indicators to gtk3 [10:24] which also mean updating the unity panel service to gtk3 [10:24] right [10:24] so first, indicators [10:24] pitti, there is a note on the etherpad about that [10:25] rodrigo_, vino has a merge request from jbicha ready [10:26] cf versions [10:26] if you want to review and sponsor it [10:26] didrocks, btw mterry assigned you the accountsservice mir review if you didn't notice [10:27] seb128: I noticed, I try to get a day full of gnome-session first :) [10:27] didrocks, yeah, no hurry ;-) [10:27] the good news is that the diff will be less than before, but reviewing and ensuring everything will be fine is quite long with all the changes [10:28] yeah, I can imagine [10:29] so I'm wondering if it would be acceptable to "break" gnome-panel in oneiric [10:29] break, like right now, before alpha1? [10:29] i.e to go for the gtk3 version which will mean breaking indicators use in gnome-panel until they are ported [10:30] if we want the new gnome-panel, I'm afraid the indicator port will be long, so maybe that worthes it, isn't it? [10:30] seb128: don't call it "break" -- call it "increase the motivation to port indicators" [10:30] heh :) [10:30] seb128, ah, ok [10:31] didrocks, why would it be long? we got the stack ready previous cycle and this to build without deprecation [10:31] those [10:31] it should be trivial for those not using ido [10:31] kenvandine is working on that and got it almost ported [10:32] but I might be overlooking something? [10:32] rodrigo_, bug #786899 [10:32] Launchpad bug 786899 in gnome-settings-daemon "package gnome-settings-daemon 2.32.1-0ubuntu13.1 failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/gnome-control-center/keybindings/50-accessibility.xml', which is also in package gnome-control-center-data 1:3.0.1.1-1ubuntu1~natty1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/786899 [10:33] seb128, ok, taking it [10:33] seb128: there is still some patches waiting for gtk, isn't it? I don't remember if I merged them or not [10:34] for soundmenu IIRC [10:34] didrocks, I think there is one needed yes, I will check with kenvandine when he's online [10:34] seb128: I think I ported it in gtk2, but better to check, right [10:35] rodrigo_, it might not need anything but it's worth checking it's not a missing replaces or something, could be a downgrade issue from the ppa to natty (downgrades are not supported but some people try anyway and run into issue)à [10:35] seb128, yes, seems like a missing replace indeed [10:35] didrocks, pitti, rodrigo_: ok, I will start on gnome-panel in the ubuntu-desktop ppa to see how it goes and port one or two indicators [10:36] rodrigo_, no need to upload for it, just get the fix in the vcs, thanks ;-) [10:36] nice :) [10:36] seb128, ok, cool, should we also upload gnome-menus before you upload panel? [10:36] I finally bent {lib,}gnome-keyring to my will, uploading now [10:37] rodrigo_, you can upload in the gnome3 ppa with an oneiric target [10:37] pitti, \o/ [10:37] rodrigo_, let's try with the ppa first [10:37] seb128, ok [10:37] seb128: libgk-k will be in Debian NEW, so that'll take a few days; not that urgent though, I presume? [10:37] pitti, what is NEW in there? [10:38] it's a minor revision update? [10:38] seb128: Debian added a -dbg for the library [10:38] oh ok [10:38] no, no hurry [10:38] but you can just dput as 0build1 if you want [10:38] so it will be synced when it's NEWed [10:39] ah, sure [10:40] seb128: -panel/-applets jbicha's PPA are not useful merges already? [10:40] pitti, they are likely useful, I plan to start from them [10:42] did I say I hate autotools? totem fails to build with no obvious error in the log and it builds fine there. I bet it miss a build-depends but not sure which one [10:43] seb128: you hate autotools because you never tried cmake :p [10:43] ;-) [10:45] didrocks: its possible to hate multiple build-tools ;) [10:47] lifeless: heh :) [10:48] hey seb128, how are you? [10:48] hey chrisccoulson, I'm fine, what about you? had a nice w.e? [10:49] seb128 - yeah, good thanks, although i did a bit of work to make up for having another national holiday today ;) [10:49] you have another holiday today? [10:49] you are making those up right? [10:50] seb128 - yeah, it's another holiday here today [10:50] lying! [10:51] another royal couple to get wed? [10:51] lol, i hope not ;) [10:52] chrisccoulson, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_holidays_in_the_United_Kingdom says you are lying [10:52] next monday is one though [10:52] gord is there today, so yeah, stop lying :) [10:52] hey chrisccoulson! [10:52] njpatel as well [10:53] lol [10:53] it's next monday ;) [10:53] good job i did some work already! [10:53] stupid calendar ;) [10:53] chrisccoulson, http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Governmentcitizensandrights/LivingintheUK/DG_073741 [10:53] lol [10:53] right [10:53] Hello [10:53] i can't believe i got that wrong! [10:53] holiday next Monday [10:53] yes [10:53] hey njpatel, no worry, chrisccoulson tried to sneak off work pretenting it was a uk bank holiday [10:53] that's what happens when i never leave the house ;) [10:53] chrisccoulson: nice try! :-) [10:53] if United win the champions league on sat, I might still be drunk [10:54] lol [10:54] RAOF: you are the approver of https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-xorg-stakeholders-request, are you aware of this? [10:54] njpatel: and during this time, other people works on promoting ubuntu and french events. We see the priorities! :-) [10:54] hey - if chrisccoulson says its a bank holiday - i'm not gonna argue - extra day of sleep would be welcome ;) [10:54] lol [10:54] i feel like that too ;) [10:55] pitti: Hm, no I wasn't! Thanks. [10:55] * RAOF wonders why he's the approver of that. [10:56] didrocks, the ubuntu french party is at the wrong time, you are competing with RG... [10:56] I was pondering coming until I realized that [10:56] seb128: come on, don't try to get a slacking excuse! :p [10:56] ok, I'm reviewing https://code.launchpad.net/~jbicha/ubuntu/oneiric/vino/vino-3.0.2/+merge/61885 [10:57] rodrigo_, thanks [10:57] seb128: so, this "thing" I saw on TV yesterday was RG? [10:57] you have a tv now?! ;-) [10:58] for watching nolife, sure :-) [10:58] but dunno, the TV is able to display several things [10:58] and big bang theory, mostely :) [10:58] but you might have crossed it yes, it started yesterday ;-) [10:58] cyphermox: I left some comments in https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-desktop-network-enhancements, setting back to drafting FYI [10:59] RAOF: I think it makes sense of X.org folks cross-checking each other's blueprints; you'd rather have a different approach? [10:59] RAOF: you can hand over approver to me if you prefer [11:00] seb128: that should be it, they were shouting and seemed to feel pain :-) [11:00] didrocks, you just don't understand sport [11:01] Sweetshark: are you still working on https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-libreoffice-packaging ? (it's still in state "new") [11:01] but I will follow njpatel's at getting drunk saturday if manchester wins ;-) [11:01] Sweetshark: it should be in "drafting" while you are working on the spec, then flip it to "pending approval" once you are done and want the approver to review [11:01] seb128: I think it's rather sport which doesn't understand me :-) [11:01] pitti: I'm not *entirely* clear as to the role of the approver. However, that blueprint matches my memories of the session, and contain appropriate work items, so I've approved it. [11:02] RAOF: ok, thanks [11:05] pitti: I will have finished all blueprint work by tommorrow meeting time. [11:06] Sweetshark: it looks good to me; I just reordered the WIs a bit for chronological milestones, and also droped the redundant [bjoern-m] tags (as you are already the default assignee) === cking_ is now known as cking [11:06] Sweetshark: ah, good; leaving at drafting then, thanks [11:13] pitti - are we able to push the firefox update in natty-proposed this week without getting verification for bug 783856 and bug 783997? i picked those from upstream, and i have no way of contacting the reporters of those to get them to test it [11:13] Launchpad bug 783856 in globalmenu-extension/1.0 "Thunderbird 3.1.10 Crash Report [@ uGlobalMenuBar::~uGlobalMenuBar ]" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/783856 [11:13] Launchpad bug 783997 in globalmenu-extension/1.0 "Firefox 4.0.1 Crash Report [@ uGlobalMenuBar::ShouldParentStayVisible ] " [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/783997 [11:13] bug 783790 has been verified to work, and that one is one of the most frequent firefox crashers across all linux users [11:13] Launchpad bug 783790 in globalmenu-extension/1.0 "Firefox 4 crashes when opening Selenium IDE window" [Critical,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/783790 [11:14] chrisccoulson: should be fine, yes; after 7 days [11:14] pitti - cool, thanks [11:19] hey chrisccoulson [11:19] hi rodrigo_, how are you? [11:19] chrisccoulson, just pushed your fix for the g-s-d convert file to git [11:20] rodrigo_, cool, thanks [11:20] chrisccoulson, it was indeed a leftover from a previous commit [11:27] seb128, woohoo, I want pictures of drunk you! [11:27] ;-) [11:28] chrisccoulson: are you still working on https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-mozilla-rapid-release-maintenance? [11:28] chrisccoulson: i. e. should it go to 'drafting' or 'review'? [11:28] pitti - i've finished creating WI's for it now [11:29] (ie, i pretty much know what i'm doing with that one now) [11:29] chrisccoulson: ok, want me to review then? [11:29] pitti - sure, if you don't mind :) [11:29] chrisccoulson: do you have some idea which of the WIs should be handled first, i. e. for alpha-2? or want me to go through and sort them? [11:30] pitti - also, i sent an e-mail out to ubuntu-devel and ubuntu-motu last week asking for help from people who care about any particular packages on that list [11:30] pitti - i'm not sure which ones to do for a2 yet [11:30] chrisccoulson: actually, pretty much all of them seem fine by beta-1 [11:31] cool, thanks [11:31] I don't immediately see ones which are a blocker for other features/work, do you? [11:31] perhaps "Figure out how to support mozvoikko, enigmail and lightning (binary extensions)" [11:32] * pitti moves that to a2 [11:33] pitti - yeah, i'm not sure what to do about that. i know we have people using mozvoikko, but i don't know how we can support it [11:33] i thought about reimplementing it in javascript and using jsctypes this weekend [11:34] i don't think it would be that hard [11:36] jasoncwarner: you are the drafter for https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-o-default-apps, are you ok with this or want someone else to do that? (I wasn't in the session, so I shouldn't do it) [11:42] what's happening with the libnotify transition? it collides a bit with some other transitions in progress, but I don't know what can be done to progress it (which packages require non-trivial source uploads and which just no-change rebuilds, etc.) [11:48] cjwatson, we did try to actively work on doing a transition for it yet === duanedeisgn is now known as duanedesign [11:48] we figured it would be easier to just let things sort over time and do a push to clean remaining ones later [11:48] mm, but it's causing awkward build failures I don't know how to deal with [11:48] cjwatson, does it create any issue, i.e should it be actively sorted? [11:48] that are blocking other things [11:49] some of the interfaces seem to have changed - different numbers of arguments to notify_notification_new, e.g. [11:49] they broke some apis but the changes should be trivial [11:49] right [11:49] a post about how to deal with it would be welcome [11:49] I'm happy then to work on unblocking the stuff that affects me === alecu_ is now known as alecu [11:50] cjwatson, I can do that but I'm happy to deal with build issues that are blocking you as well if you give the list [11:55] cjwatson, basically they dropped the option to link the notification to a status icon and widget so the argument got dropped from the notify_notification_new() call and they dropped the function corresponding to those action as well [11:56] seb128: linuxdcpp balsa openfetion are the ones I recall seeing so far [11:58] cjwatson, so trivial "porting guide" is to drop the last argument from the new call and any call to function that deals with widget or status icon [11:58] seb128: hmm, I see that libnotify4-dev has now been NBSed though, so I wonder if it's worth retrying linuxdcpp and openfetion [11:58] the result is that notifications will be displayed to the standard location [11:59] cjwatson, right, we came back to the old name to be in sync with what debian is doing (they decided to just transition rather than having both versions) [11:59] cjwatson, do you want me to deal with linuxdcpp balsa openfetion [11:59] ? [12:00] let me have a look to balsa to start just to see what the issue is [12:00] if you could deal with balsa, I'll retry the others and see if they just work now that libnotify4-dev is gone [12:00] ok [12:00] looking at balsa now [12:08] seb128: what's your pick on dropping the failsafe session and just using gnome classic (no effect) for that? [12:08] works for me [12:09] thanks :) [12:09] lunch, brb [12:09] yw [12:09] enjoy === MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch === wers_ is now known as wers [12:43] seb128: linuxdcpp looks OK now [12:59] b'ah, xchat crashes without me realizing [12:59] **crashed [13:08] good day all [13:15] hey pedro_, how are you? [13:15] hello pitti!, I'm good, thanks. what about you? [13:16] chrisccoulson, xchat is crashing for me on Spanish, guess you're not using that locale :-P [13:16] it only works on English [13:16] pedro_, i'm not using spanish ;) [13:16] :-P [13:16] pedro_: I'm great, thanks! weekend was nice [13:16] hey pedro_ [13:17] bonjour seb128! [13:20] hey pedro_ [13:21] hola rodrigo_, is xchat-gnome working fine for you? [13:21] pedro_, do you use natty or oneiric? [13:21] pedro_, yes, but in English [13:23] seb128, Natty, looks like it's due to the translation, i blame dpm [13:24] pedro_, you should be using xchat-gnome instead of xchat, I blame you! :P [13:24] dpm, oh it's xchat-gnome :-P [13:24] i'm not so mean with the gnome project [13:26] dpm, bug 785740 [13:26] pedro_, ok, looking... [13:26] cri cri cri [13:26] no bot? [13:27] pedro_, you broke the bot?! [13:27] pedro_, wrong bug # [13:28] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xchat-gnome/+bug/785740 [13:28] pedro_: Error: bug 785740 not found [13:28] seb128, wasn't me i swear! [13:29] is the bug non public? [13:32] yeah it was waiting to be retraced, got a backtrace though so i make it public now [13:35] * rodrigo_ lunch [13:36] I think I remember that the one breaking the bot has to replace it manually :-) [13:40] pitti - i notice you're working on desktop-o-firefox-translations-in-launchpad. do you need the entire list of firefox language packs for that? [13:40] chrisccoulson: for the dependency? [13:40] chrisccoulson: I thought about checking the package repo for firefox-locale-XX at langpack build time [13:41] pitti - yeah (if we need the dependency for >= 11.10) [13:41] chrisccoulson: my intention was to make this check not version specific [13:41] i. e. once we backport this to lucid, it should just work [13:42] "if firefox-locale-XX exists, add it as a recommends to language-pack-XX" [13:42] is what I thought? [13:42] yeah, i think that makes sense [13:43] for lucid though, the firefox-locale-XX packages won't exist when you build the language packs will they? (if you build them in the langpack PPA) [13:43] chrisccoulson: not right now, yes; only once they are in -updates [13:43] note, i've started staging lucid/maverick/natty in here now: https://edge.launchpad.net/~mozillateam/+archive/firefox-next [13:43] chrisccoulson: I can also (temporarily?) switch that check to include -proposed, too [13:44] edge is not the hostname you are looking for [13:53] pitti: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cdbs/+bug/745828 << do you think this could be backported to natty? [13:53] Launchpad bug 745828 in cdbs "python-module.mk incorectly call dh_python2 with unexisting --prefix parameter" [High,Fix released] [13:54] bigon: yes, it only changes a code path which is definitively broken right now, so safe for SRU [13:55] do we need it for anything? [13:55] backporting of some packages [13:56] ah, right [13:56] chrisccoulson: would you mind doing https://code.launchpad.net/~pitti/po2xpi/fix-update-data/+merge/60688 ? should be quick [13:57] chrisccoulson: otherwise the PPA packages will break the SRU fix again === MacSlow|lunch is now known as MacSlow [13:57] pitti, sure, no problem [13:59] pitti - ok, done [13:59] chrisccoulson: cheers === johanbr_ is now known as johanbr [14:17] chrisccoulson: hm, lintian complains about [14:17] lintian error: W: language-pack-es-base: jar-not-in-usr-share usr/lib/firefox-addons/extensions/langpack-es-CL@firefox.mozilla.org/chrome/es-CL.jar [14:17] chrisccoulson: I guess that's for Debian policy, and we actually do want it in /usr/share? (for lucid/maverick) [14:19] pitti - the issue is that /usr/lib/firefox-addons/extensions can contain binary files too, so you can't move the whole folder to /usr/share, and there isn't really anywhere else in /usr/share to put them [14:20] chrisccoulson: ok, so this lintian check is just bogus then at least for our purposes [14:20] i think the firefox package used to be carved up between /usr/lib and /usr/share a long, long time ago, but it's been in /usr/lib/ ever since i started [14:20] and i just override the lintian warnings for those [14:22] * pitti filters it out in the test suite theen [14:55] chrisccoulson: I'm in favor or dropping https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598118 from now as we will revisit with compiz the screensaver experience, any thought on that? (I don't know with the GNOME3 world, but I don't find any gui to change /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/suspend for instance) [14:55] Gnome bug 598118 in gnome-session "Screensaver lock-on-suspend policy inconsistent with gnome-power-manager" [Normal,Unconfirmed] [14:56] I know that locking the screen was on robert's plate with lightdm [15:01] didrocks, i think we still need that until we've figured out what we're doing with screen locking [15:02] need what? [15:03] seb128: the screen locking policy, see my message above [15:03] chrisccoulson: where is the ui to change g-w-m screen locking policy? [15:04] g-p-m* [15:04] didrocks, ok, I just restarted my session so I didn't see it but doesn't seem like anything I would useful to comment on ;-) [15:04] so ignore my question ;-) [15:04] didrocks, there isn't one. the issue was that gnome-session and gnome-power-manager had different ideas about whether to lock the screen [15:05] there shouldn't be a UI for configuring the g-p-m setting (ie, assume that the screen should always be locked on suspend) [15:05] seb128: I think you can have interesting input for it: 15:55:50 didrocks | chrisccoulson: I'm in favor or dropping https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598118 from now as we will revisit with compiz the screensaver experience, any thought on that? (I don't know with the GNOME3 world, but I don't find any gui to change /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/suspend for instance) [15:05] Gnome bug 598118 in gnome-session "Screensaver lock-on-suspend policy inconsistent with gnome-power-manager" [Normal,Unconfirmed] [15:05] chrisccoulson: but, gnome-screensaver option is confusing then [15:06] didrocks, the gnome-screensaver options is about locking when the screensaver activates [15:06] disabling that shouldn't also switch off lock-on-suspend [15:06] which was the original issue :) [15:06] chrisccoulson: right, but then, what happens if it suspends while the screensaver is active, it's locked :) [15:07] yeah, that's fine [15:07] the thing is that if robert is changing that in lightdm, not sure we need this patch in gnome-session [15:07] the issue is that users were unchecking lock-on-screensaver and then being surprised that the screen no longer locked on suspend too [15:08] i don't know whether the way this works has changed in gnome 3, but we want to keep the current behaviour :) [15:08] chrisccoulson: well, better first to check how it works on GNOME 3? [15:08] possibly ;) [15:08] rather than rebasing first the patch, using gsettings… [15:08] let me first look at the schema [15:09] i don't know how anything works in gnome 3 ;) [15:09] check with rodrigo_ [15:10] but yeah, what chrisccoulson said, we want the behaviour to still be what is happening now [15:10] rodrigo_: ? I'm sure you are eager to speak about g-p-m and screen locking :) [15:10] [15:10] true [15:10] <_summary>Use gnome-screensaver lock setting [15:11] didrocks, if you are unsure drop it for now and put a work item on the gnome3 blueprint about sorting that [15:11] in the g-p-m gsettings schema [15:11] so it follows the gnome-screensaver setting right now [15:11] but there are still the different keys if we set that to false [15:12] I don't care either way, just that we should coordinate :-) [15:12] does anyone know of a package that uses dh_installgsettings? [15:15] rodrigo_, cdbs use it so any package using cdbs with gnome.mk? [15:16] seb128, ah, ok, so I don't need to add anything to debian/rules? [15:16] rodrigo_, if the package is using cdbs no [15:16] seb128: that can be a sprint topic, at least, we know how it works in gnome3 now, I'll drop a note in the etherpad [15:16] seb128, ok [15:16] didrocks, ok [15:16] rodrigo_, btw vino failed to build [15:16] seb128, oh? looking [15:17] rodrigo_, the autoreconf failed, you probably miss a build-depends on gnome-common or gtk-doc-tools or something [15:19] rodrigo_, do you want me to check in a pbuilder which build-depends is missing? [15:19] seb128, please [15:19] rodrigo_, ok, running it [15:19] seb128, although I should really set up a pbuilder myself [15:19] will do it later [15:20] rodrigo_, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PbuilderHowto [15:21] if you need documentation [15:21] seb128, yes, I know, I already tried some time ago, but it took too much disk space, so removed it [15:21] but yes, will do it again [15:21] ok [15:22] kenvandine: hey, small question: why did you add debian/patches/81_restart_string_on_inhibit.patch in gnome-session to po_up/POTFILES.in as the file is already in POTFILES.in? (and so the modified string is already on launchpad if I'm correct) [15:22] hmm, for dh_installgsettings, do I need to Build-Depend on it? [15:22] ah, no, it's part of debhelper [15:30] rodrigo_, ok, vino needs a build-depends on gnome-common [15:31] seb128, ok, fixing it now thanks [15:31] rodrigo_, yw [15:34] didrocks, he's not feeling well and not around but I guess there is no real reason (I used to just drop the po-up dir when merging on debianà [15:35] seb128: yeah, I think it's rather a mistake than anything else. it's still useful for the debian patch which doesn't patch the upstream POTFILES.in (and they merge the translation manually as they have no launchpad-like) [15:35] rodrigo_, seb128, hello :) [15:36] hi ricotz [15:36] hey ricotz [15:36] pitti, can i haz workitem status please? :) http://people.canonical.com/~platform/workitems/oneiric/u/njpatel.html [15:36] is there a decision made yet wether gdm3 will be synced from debian? [15:37] seb128, ^ [15:37] synced? no way [15:37] we have quite some diff, it requires a merge [15:37] ok, what about the package name? [15:38] if somebody wants to rename and merge it do it [15:38] i uploaded accountsservice to the ppa and disabled a gdm3 patch to fit the ubuntu naming [15:38] nobody in the team judged merging gdm was worth the effort [15:38] no i actually wouldnt rename it [15:38] is gdm3 in the ppa?! === abhinav_ is now known as abhinav- [15:39] using the actual approach of gdm in the ppa is fine to me [15:39] seb128, yes [15:39] the login manager should be something that is merged correctly, not a sync from debian [15:40] seb128, ok, while keeping the current state, you might want to upload the modified accountsservice to oneiric [15:40] https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3/+sourcepub/1740115/+listing-archive-extra [15:40] we are on sync with debian and I would like to keep it this way, why do we need a patch? did you put the patch up to review somewhere? [15:41] they introduced a patch to fit there gdm3 folder-naming-change [15:42] hum, ok [15:42] we should update the patch to check for the debian path first and then fallback to the standard one [15:44] ricotz, thanks for pointing it [15:45] pitti, is there any reason you dropped the beta1 target for the gnoime3 workitems? [15:45] - Work items (oneiric-beta-1): [15:45] + Work items: [15:45] seb128, ok, disabling the patch should be fine for now [15:45] ricotz, right, I will do that [15:45] seb128, you could sponsor the package :P [15:46] ricotz, do you have a merge request somewhere? [15:46] hmm, no [15:46] hum ok, I can grab it from the ppa I guess [15:47] but it would be nice if you could try to get things back in the distro by following normal sponsoring workflows ;-) [15:47] seb128, ok, i know :( [15:48] seb128, oh, are you able to sponsor gnome-desktop3 in debian? [15:48] i mean upload 3.0.1-2 [15:48] not easily today, I need to fix my debian vm and update it but I can try to do later [15:48] what did you change there? [15:49] i added the introspection which is needed for gnome-shell-extensions [15:49] ok [15:49] seb128, i will ask there [15:50] let's see if someone else does it first, it doesn't seem to be a priority and will need to go through NEW [15:50] ok [15:53] http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/The-Document-Foundation-announces-the-members-of-the-Engineering-Steering-Committee-td2975506.html <- yeaha! [16:02] Sweetshark: congrats! [16:02] micahg: thanks ;) [16:20] rodrigo_, i am not sure about the libunique-dev (i.e. in vino) shouldnt this be libuniqe-3.0-dev? [16:20] rodrigo__, ^ [16:21] rodrigo__, also libappindicator3-dev [16:22] bbl [16:22] seb128: do you have a org.gnome.sesson gsettings schema installed? (I find references to it in gnome-session but no schema and I don't have an oneiric, even partially upgraded, box) [16:22] didrocks, no [16:22] org.gnome.desktop.session* [16:22] hum… [16:22] gsettings-desktop-schemas: /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnome.desktop.session.gschema.xml [16:22] didrocks, that yes [16:22] no org.gnome.session though [16:22] ah :) [16:23] ok, that's even, I'll check the dep is ok, but will add a patch to it to set the "ubuntu" session by default [16:23] didrocks, you can install it on natty as well [16:23] thanks ed1703 :) [16:23] seb128: * [16:23] yw [16:29] salut didrocks et seb128 [16:29] hey kinouchou! [16:29] lut kinouchou [16:46] ugh, inet is not working well today here [16:46] rodrigo_, did you get my question? [16:46] ricotz, hmm, not sure, what question? [16:47] ah, about vino [16:47] yes [16:47] i looked at vino and libunique-dev -> libuniqe-3.0-dev? [16:47] yes [16:47] same for libappindicator [16:47] yes, looking [16:48] libunique is no longer used, so no need for libunique-3.0 [16:48] and yes, libappindicator one is wron [16:49] ok, so you can drop this one [16:49] since the indicator patch is disabled, that's why it doesn't crash with GTK2/3 symbols error [16:49] ah ok [16:49] but yes, changing it now [16:52] mterry, ping (wrt deja-dup) [16:52] fta, hello! [16:52] mterry, hi [16:53] mterry, i'm exploring deja-dup to backup my main desktop. i want to use ssh (towards my serv-farm) [16:54] mterry, but there's a weak link in between (my dsl link at home). what's the behavior of d-d wrt disconnections? [16:55] ricotz, fixed and uploaded [16:56] could somebody fix evolution-exchange? it's currently uninstallable, so ubuntu-desktop is uninstallable [16:56] cyphermox, ^ [16:56] yes [16:56] fta, so if the network goes down, it will present an error. And try again later. It should resume where it left off. [16:56] cjwatson, GNOME3 transition, it's taking some time [16:57] mterry, even with encrypted backups? [16:57] fta, yeah, why would that matter? [16:59] mterry, good question ;) i don't know how it's done but i can think of issues with resumes if stuff is encrypted in flight but is incomplete [17:00] mterry, also, would be nice to have a "dry-run" feature in the "Files" settings [17:00] fta, the way it works is that everything gets chunked up, into say, 10MB chunks, then encrypted. So if it gets incomplete, you'll just not have done the latest chunk [17:00] fta, you mean, see how much space is included by the files settings? [17:00] mterry, oh, ok. good [17:01] fta, baobab helps with that, but it would be nice to give a notice [17:01] mterry, yep, optionally the list of dirs, or something like baobab [17:01] mterry, .. but baobab doesn't know about the includes/excludes of d-d [17:02] i don't want to send several TB over my dsl link, it will never complete [17:02] fta, we do an internal dry-run when backing up, but don't show it to user... [17:02] seb128: I know, but oneiric being uninstallable causes some problems so I want to make sure somebody is aware of them [17:02] I realise it can't be installable all the time - I didn't ask until it had been on the list for a while [17:02] cjwatson, right, we are working on it [17:03] cjwatson: working on it now :) [17:03] thanks [17:03] thanks for pointing it [17:03] (I'm working on live CD build stuff - falling back to working with natty at the moment for a stable base, but can't do that forever :-) ) [17:04] cjwatson, is that the only issue currently? [17:04] cjwatson: any other things under ubuntu-desktop? [17:04] that was the only one blocking the ubuntu-desktop task when I tested earlier [17:05] totem is FTBFS too, but I assume somebody has mail about that and it doesn't seem to be breaking ubuntu-desktop at the moment [17:05] mterry, last question, if a network error occurs during a backup, will it retry on the next week (or whatever the schedule is) or is it smarter? [17:06] ah, totem was just fixed, never mind that [17:06] fta, it will retry next time you login, or the next day if you don't logout [17:07] cjwatson, right, I fixed that one today [17:09] mterry, hm.. my backup will never complete then :( [17:10] fta, that flaky? [17:10] mterry, oh yes. you have no idea :( [17:12] mterry, http://people.ubuntu.com/~fta/flaky-adsl.png [17:13] fta, as a workaround, you could back up to a local folder and then get it to your ssh server somehow [17:14] not sure i have enough disk space to do that :P [17:16] seb128, you might be interested in this -- http://mentors.debian.net/cgi-bin/sponsor-pkglist?action=details;package=ibus -- http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/i/ibus/ [17:17] ricotz, thanks, I will wait for it to land in Debian, I'm just doing merges for now and we don't really need ibus on gtk3 yet [17:18] having things before debian always risk to have a divergance in the binaries naming [17:18] seb128, no problem, just wanted to point you there since this guy is member of the gnome3-team and uploaded it the ppa [17:19] ok; thanks [17:19] the packaging in the ppa is different though === MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|break [17:28] *sigh* [17:28] rickspencer3, hey [17:28] I just updated, and now gwibber is taking up one of my CPU cores, and firefox the other one :/ [17:30] hey rickspencer3 [17:31] hiya didrocks [17:31] hi seb128 [17:32] hi rickspencer3 [17:32] hi chrisccoulson [17:33] how are you? [17:33] chrisccoulson, I am doing well, how about yourself? [17:33] firerfox seems to have finished doing whatever it was doing with my CPU core [17:33] yeah, pretty good thanks. just getting ready to upgrade everyone to firefox 5 ;) [17:33] gwibber as well [17:33] I have my netbook back!! [17:34] seb128: beta target> oneiric-beta-1 is not a valid milestone, but the spec is already targetted to ubuntu-11.10-beta-1, so the default target for WIs is that already [17:35] pitti, ok, the codenames don't work this cycle? ok, makes sense, thanks [17:35] seb128: they never did [17:35] seb128: it's codename-alpha, but ubuntu-releasenumber-beta* [17:35] oh right [17:35] that's caught me out before ;) [17:35] I got confused [17:36] chrisccoulson, hey, so you stopped pretending today is an holiday and went back to work? ;-) [17:36] seb128 - lol. yeah :) === alecu is now known as alecu-lunch [17:40] hm, none of my uploads to Debian today actually hit the archive, or is visible on ftp-master, or sent me any kind of mail [17:40] wonder what's wrong [17:41] pitti, it's not only you at least but not sure what's going on there [17:50] debian upgraded alioth this weekend, could be fallout from that? [17:52] bryce, it should not, alioth is a different infrastructure from the archive [17:53] and it's mostly back; svn committing works again, just websvn is still gone [18:07] pitti: dak broke [18:08] 23/05 11:18:43 :-( looks like show-new died again without releasing unchecked.lock [18:13] Laney: jcristau also confirmed, thanks [18:13] ah ok [18:13] i idle in #debian-ftp for such news [18:18] will there be an oneiric release/mile-stone/alpha/etc. with gtk3/gnome3 stuff soon? [18:19] hv: the 2nd of June, as per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/OneiricReleaseSchedule [18:19] hv: depends on what you mean by "stuff" i guess; much is already in, so i guess alpha1 will have it [18:22] dobey: well, I know I shouldn't be using oneiric, yet, but still... many things feel broken (probably a combination of my fault and unreleased ongoing packages). I was merely trying to see if I can/should live on the cutting edge a bit longer. [18:24] hv: well, stuff is broken. but that's what happens when you end up switching everything to an api incompatibile toolkit i guess :) [18:24] sure, otherwise it wouldn't be fun ;-) [18:24] if anyone has a moment, bug 786417 could use sponsoring to unbreak natty->oneiric upgrades [18:24] Launchpad bug 786417 in gnome-control-center "package gnome-control-center-data (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/gnome-control-center/keybindings/50-accessibility.xml', which is also in package gnome-settings-daemon 2.32.1-0ubuntu13.1" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/786417 [18:27] micahg: but gnome-settings-daemon 3.0.1 is in, right? [18:27] oops, I spoke too soon [18:31] just to be sure, are theming, appmenu, and nautilus as desktop broken at the moment? [18:33] or just something's wrong with my setup? [18:49] hv: theming and nautilus are definitely broken for me [18:50] ze background is a gl buffer blur [18:53] whew...Oneiric is rrrrrough right now [18:53] lol [19:06] robbiew: believe me, it was a lot worse a few days ago ;) [19:07] why people are complaining on #ubuntu-desktop. Not our fault :p [19:07] (or maybe a little ;)) [19:09] I'm not complaining ;) It works "fine" here (as long as I make sure I never close my session) [19:09] stgraber: more trouble tomorrow, I'm remerging gnome-session and you don't want to look at the diff :) [19:10] ouch [19:10] ok, time for dinner, see you tomorrow! [19:11] didrocks: heh...not complaining, just warning those who might be adventurous ;) === alecu-lunch is now known as alecu === MacSlow|break is now known as MacSlow [19:59] pitti, can you do me a favor and add ~jklein to the canonical contributor agreement group? He signed it for the netbook-launcher-efl project [21:09] hrmm, java seems pretty broken on O [21:10] s/on O// [21:10] ;) [21:10] JFo: well yes, but the packages won't even configure on O [21:11] I see [21:12] hrmm, and can't seem to install python-qt4 either [21:16] ah got java "fixed" [21:16] the postinst stuff was needing /usr/lib/libnss3.so, but it seems to have been moved to /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/ or whatever [21:16] symlink made the configure work [21:24] dobey: there's a better workaround in the LP bug for it, that one was fixed in oneiric, but I'm hitting another oe [21:26] micahg: fixed when? [21:27] dobey: last week [21:27] bug 779174 [21:27] Launchpad bug 779174 in openjdk-6 "package ca-certificates-java 20110426 failed to install/upgrade: fix path to libnss3 for multiarch" [Critical,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/779174 [21:28] micahg: then it's not fixed, because i only upgraded to O on this machine on friday, and there was no update for ca-certificates-java today [21:28] dobey: the update was for openjdk [21:29] micahg: how does that work if it depends on ca-certificates-java being configured before it can be installed? but either way, none of the updates as of today fixed it; i had to make the symlink to fix it [21:31] dobey: well, it's not affecting people upgrading anymore at least, you can ask doko if he wants to do a fix for people on oneiric already [21:33] well i'll add a comment on the bug [21:33] but even now that i got past that, i can't seem to install python-qt4 :( === alecu_ is now known as alecu [21:53] cyphermox: broder suggested that I mention my networkmanager pony to you. Specifically, I understand there's a plan for per-SSID/BSSID firewall and proxy settings for 11.10 -- I'd love it if there were also a dropdown for "use this VPN when on this SSID" in there [22:02] huh, i wonder what broke logilab-common, since the version in the archive seems to fail unit tests here when i try to debuild it [22:47] How come nvidia-current isn't installed in Ubuntu by default? [22:51] Ubuntu does not install any non-free software by default. Nvidia-current uses a proprietary driver [22:52] Until intel and ati made their drivers open-source, we did not install them either [22:52] Hmm, so how is this going to be addressed in 11.10? Currently Unity uses Compiz (correct me if I'm wrong) and that needs (on some systems, nvidia-current). [22:52] Can there be a utility that asks the user if they'd like to install it? It'd save lives. [22:52] there *is* such a utility [22:53] and it runs at startup if there are any such drivers available [22:53] it shows up as a little picture of a PCI board in the panel [22:53] it's called jockey :) [22:54] that being said, the open-source nvidia drivers (nouveau) are also getting better, and as i understand it we're planning to try turning on their 3D support by default this cycle [22:57] broder and micahg: but even before you get to that; if you attempt to run Unity on the desktop, it'd fail and log you out. [22:58] We should also have the fallback to 2d, not requiring the nvidia-current driver [22:58] charlie-tca, +1 [23:01] idk if it's more appropriate to ask in here or not, since desktop team maintains this package. I was asked to rebase seahorse, and I went ahead and did so, but since this is a new process I'm learning I am wondering if someone could look it over for me and let me know what i did wrong and how to correct it [23:01] https://code.launchpad.net/~bcurtiswx/ubuntu/oneiric/seahorse/3.0.0-1ubuntu1 [23:02] it built fine [23:06] JackyAlcine: in 11.10 we *will* fall back to unity-2d if 3d support isn't there [23:06] and even right now it shouldn't fail and log you out. it'll fail and drop you into gnome classic [23:08] Hmm. Well, if I can reproduce the occasion in a VM, I'll try to produce a bug report, broder [23:30] mterry, d-d doesn't seem to do anything (ssh). no error, no nothing. i see a progress bar in the unity badge, stuck at 0% forever [23:38] how do you re-hotplug a built in pointer (my touchpad) [23:40] broder: I was just about to say this, we do currently fall back. [23:42] fta, odd. file a bug? the bug form tells you how to get logs [23:47] mterry, i just selected 1 dir, to test. when i click on backup now, i briefly see something, then nada, it sits there forever [23:47] fta, and you click on the launcher icon and it just says "preparing"? [23:48] mterry, nope, it wobbles for a while, but nothing happens [23:48] fta, oh! you click the launcher icon and no window appears? that's very odd [23:49] mterry, oneiric, in case it matters [23:50] fta, oh, maybe. that's a bit more cutting edge... I'll have to test again [23:55] lifeless: How have you un-hotblugged it? :). You can probably get udevadm to twiddle the magical bits, though. [23:56] lifeless: From the man page, I'd guess that “udevadm test $STUFF” would get you a udev event so that X re-hotplugs your touchpad. For sufficient values of STUFF.
