Trevinhojaytaoko: I sent the merge request...02:21
TrevinhoHowever with latest Nux I can't run compiz...02:21
TrevinhoI meant unity....02:23
TrevinhoI guess the problem is one of the most recent changes, since I pull just few new changes and compiz didn't load at all (keeping my CPU at 100%)02:24
jaytaokoTrevinho: I will review your branch with an up to date Nux branch. I will pull all the latest changes to Nux and Unity.03:25

apwam i expecting to have lost ctrl-alt-T as a keybinding in oneiric09:01
apwam i expecting to have lost the Reboot option from the power menu in oneiric09:01
ephanapw, no you're not. I think those maintan09:08
=== daker_ is now known as daker
didrocksapw: reboot will be when dx will implement the new shutdown dialog from design09:11
didrocksapw: ctrl-alt-T is because there is no moe integration and such shortcuts in GNOME309:11
didrocksyou can still set that manually in ccsm though, in the "gnomecompat" plugin09:11
apwdidrocks, you'd think we could have kept the reboot option on the menu till we had the new functionality09:12
apwleast supprise and all that09:12
didrocksapw: seems the new indicator-session release landed before that09:13
apwdidrocks, or we could have pointed the Shutdown... to the same thing that the power button opens09:13
apwas that has all the options one might want even if its as ugly as an ugly thing09:13
didrocksapw: not sure as you have all the others options there as well, what we really need is the new dialog09:14
apwhmmm, perhaps some coordination then if we arn't going to try and make this thing easy to use for people09:15
didrocksapw: btw, while you are there, I have a recurrent issue (like 50% of the time), having no network at startup, seems to be the iwl3945 river not being correctly loaded. I have to unload it and load it again. There is a bug, but no activity (see dx isn't the only one)09:15
didrocksalso, there is this dkms not working with nvidia-current for each kernel upgrade09:15
apwdidrocks, binary drivers luckily arn't my problem :)09:16
apwdidrocks, whats the bug number for the iwl problem09:16
didrocksapw: you are quite lucky. However, dkms not being executed is, isn't it?09:16
seb128apw, it's only an unstable cycle and it's not like it was hard to restart09:16
apwdidrocks, not being run would be indeed09:16
didrocksand rebooting without any graphic isn't nice for our user, that's the kinf of transition user are list as well :)09:17
seb128apw, log out and restart from the login screen, or switch to a vt and ctrl-alt-del09:17
apwseb128, i don't have any working buttons on my login screen, i am told i'll get those back eventually09:17
seb128apw, should be fixed with yesterday's update09:17
apwdidrocks, whats the bug number for the dkms not running one09:17
seb128works for me at least09:17
apwseb128, cool i'll do more updating09:18
didrocksapw: not sure about the dkms, I didn't report it, let me look for the wifi driver one first09:18
didrocksapw: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/80381509:19
ubot5Ubuntu bug 803815 in linux (Ubuntu) "[iwl3945] direct probe timeout" [Undecided,Confirmed]09:19
RAOFdidrocks, apw: You're looking for bug #81297909:19
ubot5Launchpad bug 812979 in dkms (Ubuntu) "Kernel modules are not built when the kernel is upgraded" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/81297909:19
didrocksRAOF: thanks :)09:20
apwRAOF, ahh so that was a dkms issue?  new kernel version number the cause ?09:21
RAOFapw: No.  It doesn't try to parse the kernel version number, it just totally ignores it.09:21
RAOFSo you say ‘build me the module for 3.0.0-7-generic’ and it happily goes ahead and says ‘I see you're running 3.0.0-6-generic, and the nvidia-current module is already built for that kernel.  My work here is (silently!) done!”09:22
RAOFI'm not sure how it was ever supposed to work; presumably someone did something that was frightfully clever recently and accidentally broke it.09:23
ephanSo if I got it, GNOME 3 does not support shortcuts?09:28
ephanI'm probably confused, as this can't be right09:28
didrocksephan: there is no shortcut you can tweak in g-c-c, so no way to integrate and such them in compiz09:29
ephanah I see didrocks09:30
ephanI personally haven't tried the Alpha 2 to check for bugs, but I feel like I have to09:31
ephanin a few days09:31
apwRAOF, heh that is top quality, glad it gotten fixed, might explain the random failures of it we have had in the past too09:45
snadgethat could explain why i've had to manually force dkms rebuilds09:54
snadgeid also like to randomly say .. good job for improving the linux desktop with some much overdue changes, and actually doing it, despite the overlap problems with gnome etc10:08
apwdidrocks, next time you hit this iwl3945 problem could you just rmmod the driver and re-modprobe it, it should not be necessary to restart nm if this is a driver issue; i do this with a problem brcm device often10:19
didrocksapw: oh ok, will try that10:19
didrocksapw: it appeared with -3 I would say10:19
andyrocknjpatel, around?10:59
njpatelandyrock, hey11:02
andyrocknjpatel, i was reading dood tweet about eject/safely remove stuff11:03
njpatelyep11:03
andyrocknjpatel, for safely remove we use g_drive_stop and we use also the GAsyncReadyCallback11:04
njpatelright11:04
andyrockbut the GAsyncReadyCallback is not useful since we don't read the result of the operation :)11:04
njpatelandyrock, that's fine, we can just not send it then :)11:05
andyrockso, we don't need the GAsyncReadyCallback and we can remove it?11:06
andyrocknjpatel, or we can make it useful adding logging information...11:06
njpatelandyrock, logging information would be good11:07
njpatelandyrock, is it done inside the device-icon or the devices manager?11:08
andyrocknjpatel, P.S.: according to me "eject" item for usb drives is a gnome bug11:08
andyrocknjpatel, device-icon11:08
njpatelah, nice11:08
njpatelandyrock, okay, makes sense11:08
andyrocknjpatel, you want port devices manager (and favorites one) into unity core?11:09
=== MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch
njpatelandyrock, hmm, not sure what unity-2d use11:11
njpatelandyrock, i'm not sure they use gio at all11:12
njpatelandyrock, favorites store would be good, yes11:12
njpatelandyrock, also, having another look at the favourites store tests would be good, maybe porting to the gtest suite11:12
andyrocknerochiaro, gtest suite?11:13
andyrocknjpatel, ^^^11:14
andyrocknerochiaro, sorry :)11:14
nerochiaroandyrock: no problem11:14
njpatelandyrock, yeah, the test-gtest binary that uses google test instead of glibtest11:15

h_hi there14:33
ephanhey h_14:35
h_hi ephan, dont know if this is the place to ask but.....14:36
h_do you have any experience on writing appindicators for Natty?14:36
ephanFor Natty? No14:36
ephanOnly for the good old gnome-panel14:37
h_ok14:37
h_anyways, do you know if it was possible to display other gtk widgets than a classic dropdown menu?14:38
h_like buttons, maybe a container box, etc14:39
h_because it seems that it's not possible in Natty14:39
ephanIf it isn't and you'd like it, go to launchpad.net and add that to the wishlist in Unity or Ubuntu (not sure on which one)14:40
ephanBut I do not know if you can14:40
h_ok14:41
h_and one more question, what is ayatana ?14:42
ephanThe Ayatana Project is the collective project that houses user interface, design and interaction projects started by Canonical.14:44
ephanhttps://launchpad.net/ayatana More information there14:44
h_good14:46
h_ephan, how to i access any of this irc channels http://live.gnome.org/GnomeIrcChannels#GNOME_Software_Development?14:51
ephanh_, not sure if that question should be posed in this channel. Nevertheless, I'll answer you. Those servers are irc.gnome.org. #ayatana is on FreeNode. You need a new server tab and connect to irc.gnome.org.14:52
h_thanks14:54

c10udso, oneiric features a new messaging menu or whatever, is there some docs about it?19:04
c10udthanks :D19:04
c10ud(people have been asking emesene support, i guess you changed something from natty...)19:05
jcastroc10ud: I think the -me menu stuff was just merged with the messaging menu19:14
jcastroafaik you don't need to do anything19:14
jcastrotedg: right?19:14
c10udi really hope people at least tried before opening the bug :p19:14
jcastroheh, or ask them to try to reproduce it19:15
c10udthey even posted a screenshot .p19:15
jcastrolink?19:15
tedgc10ud, I ported over the old code, but I didn't test it.19:15
c10udsure, sec19:15
tedgc10ud, It might be that the module isn't loaded, the different backends are loadable now.19:15
jcastromaybe it's a bug19:16
c10udtedg, out of curiosity, any reason on why the thing can't be done backwards (?) i mean, memenu throws a signal and apps behave accordingly19:16
jcastrobecause ted knows that if we were going to force every app author to update their apps (again), that I would kill him.19:16
c10udyeah well i mean like...when it was engineered19:16
tedgc10ud, Well, you can just the telepathy-mission-control to get that... it sends all those signal.19:17
c10udanyway, jcastro: https://github.com/emesene/emesene/issues/74519:17
tedgc10ud, I don't remember, but I think that the gnome-session interface does as well.  Though, I'm not sure if we're tied into that yet.19:17
c10udi see, it just came up to my mind when i suddenly remembered ubuntu code was modified to support emesene as well19:17
jcastrowho ported it the first time around, was it cando?19:18
c10udiirc, yes19:18
tedgThis is the new package: indicator-status-provider-emesene19:21
c10udthank you, so basically we just have to tell our ubuntu packagers to add a dep on that19:21
jcastrooh that's easy, that's not even an emesene issue19:22
jcastrokenvandine: heya, can you put this on the desktop team volunteer queue?19:22
tedgNo, if you guys want, you can pull that code into emesne so that it gets maintained there.19:22
tedgNot sure what makes sense, but it doesn't have to be in the indicator source anymore.19:22
c10udmh, i don't know how it is done, but we wanted to rel a new version this month and we were trying to put support for oneiric19:23
c10udsrc is some c-lib i guess?19:24
tedgc10ud, Yup, one file though.19:24
c10udwell, for oneiric i'll just ask our debian packager to put some hard dep on the already-avail package, then we'll see, maybe we could do it backwards in future, who knows :p19:25
c10udthanks for the fast replies tedg jcastro19:25
=== zyga is now known as zyga-afk
jcastrorock.19:26
jcastroc10ud: is the package maintained in ubuntu or just synced from debian, do you know?19:26
c10udno idea, last thing i remember about it is cando patching the memenu and the patch being accepted upstream19:26
c10ud(i'm still with lucid :p)19:27
jcastrook if I see cando around I'll holla at him19:27
jcastrobut I suspect fixing it in debian will just require a sync from our end and we'll be good to go19:28
c10udjcastro, i think you meant emesene package, not indicator-*-emesene19:30
c10udif that's the case, i don't know, sometimes i got the ubuntu package sooner than debian19:31
c10udbut i know for sure who the debian packager is (devfil) so i'll take care of it19:31
c10udthanks again19:32

jcastroTrevinho: heh, someone was complaining about the chromium bug again21:06
ephanwhich bug jcastro ?21:12
czajkowskithe fact it eats memory21:14
Trevinhojcastro: who? :)21:19
Trevinhojcastro: who? :)21:19
jcastroit was on the omg post for the last unity report21:19
jcastrodo you have any new information to add?21:19
TrevinhoHowever If I've enough time before leaving for the holideys I'd like to work on that too21:19
jcastroI basically was like "yeah, we know"21:19
TrevinhoThe right answwer was: we fixed, but then DBO reverted it not to fix a side-effect seg-fault :D21:20
Trevinholol21:20
TrevinhoNo, really we'd like to get a proper fix for chromium again21:20
TrevinhoI should ask them in google code to change something that they changed for us21:21
DBO?21:21
DBOwhat?21:21
DBOthe chromium thing is currently unmerged?21:21
TrevinhoDBO: just jocking....21:21
DBOim confused21:21
* DBO goes back to his corner21:21
TrevinhoIt was, but you had to revert something which lead to a segfault21:21
TrevinhoThere's something that must be fixed properly21:22
TrevinhoHowever jcastro  the main issue is related to the fact that libwnck that we use doesn't give us all the wm_class informations we need21:22
TrevinhoI've already sent to their bugzilla a patch to fix this, but they only reviewed and I'm still waiting for the merge21:22
DBOTrevinho, do you want I to just write you a X call instead?21:23
Trevinhoso I guess we should use a temporary X call21:23
DBOI dont mind us using raw X calls21:23
DBOyes21:23
TrevinhoI already done that21:23
Trevinho(but in my private branch)21:23
TrevinhoSo, this is not a problem...21:23
TrevinhoHowever since we didn't get the proper informations by chromium, we asked them to wrongly use the WM_CLASS21:24
Trevinhoand so now they use this parameter in a non-standard way21:24
Trevinhoand we should ask them to revert what they've done...21:25
ephanBy the way guys, do we have an option for the time the dash takes to appear, so how quickly it pops out?21:26
ephanjcastro, you're the one who made the new Alt+TAB right? either way my question is, do you speak portuguese?22:20
RAOFDBO: Oh!  Was that dash bug the same problem as Jay's clipping thingy on older radeons?23:03
DBORAOF, which clipping thingy?23:04
DBOwhere only the background and maybe one icon would show?23:04
DBOyes23:04
DBOthat bug23:04
RAOFOh, hurray!23:04
DBOas I was working on the blur effect23:05
DBOit just became clear what was happening23:05
DBOso hows your back?23:05
RAOFAnnoying.23:06
RAOFEven more so because it happened while I was sleeping.  What the hell!23:07
DBOi've done that23:08
DBOI've also done it picking up a towel23:09
DBOand attempting to jump into a pair of pants (I deserved that one)23:09
RAOFSorry?  *Jump* into a pair of pants?23:10
DBOyeah you know23:10
DBOhold the pair of pants with two arms23:11
DBOlift both legs off the ground23:11
DBOland with pants on23:11
RAOFNo.  No, I don't know.23:11
DBOyou cant tell me you were never curious as a kid to know if it were possible23:11
DBOwell I figure, Im an adult now, and I get to decide what mature means to me23:11
RAOFI am curious about many things, but whether or not I can jump into pants has never been one of them.23:11
DBOlong story short23:11
DBOno, you cannot easily jump into a pair of pants23:12
RAOFNot the winner that it so clearly appeared to be? :)23:12
DBOno, it's not a big time saver actually23:13
DBOin fact you'll probably spend the better part of the day wondering if you back could possibly hurt more23:14
