pittiGood morning04:20
TheMusoMorning pitti.04:29
TheMusoI like, but dislike the start of a new cycle.04:29
pittihey TheMuso04:30
pittiTheMuso: mmm, dialectic statements in the early morning :)04:30
TheMusoheh04:30
TheMusoIts the merges I don't like, but planning for the next cycle is fun.04:31
TheMusoOr I don't enjoy merges.04:31
RAOFHey pitti :)04:32
pittiTheMuso: do less of them, try to get stuff into Debian or upstream :)04:34
pittiTheMuso: it's rather easy these days to get the Debian guys to share development in their trees04:35
TheMusopitti: Oh I know.04:35
TheMusoBut I still don't enjoy it.04:35
pittiTheMuso: but yes, some will always remain, and they are kind of boring04:35
pittiit's a good time for reviewing patches etc.04:36
TheMusoI agree with that yes.04:36
pittiRAOF: ugh, SRUs are a real whack-a-rat game these times :)04:39
RAOFpitti: Yeah.  I was going to ask you - how do we deal with stuff like vlc, which is just a new upstream bugfix release?  Wave it through?  (Although vlc also has other issues, like being a sync from Debian which blows away the oneiric changelog, and a bug in an improper state)04:41
pittiRAOF: I'm generally a bit sceptical about these, unless it's a blessed MRE; I usually look through the diff and see whether there's something which doesn't look appropriate (lots of new code, new dependencies, etc.)04:44
RAOFIt's got a very sizeable diff.  Although a surprising amount of it is no-op comment changes in the translation files :)04:47
pittiRAOF: that usually comes from merging the .po files against the latest upstream versions; harmless noise04:48
RAOFYeah; about 100K lines of harmless noise, in this case :)04:48
didrocksgood morning05:45
pittibonjour didrocks05:50
didrocksguten morgen pitti. How was your week-end?05:50
pittididrocks: pretty calm, for a change; had some friends over, some reading, gardening, and lots of idling :)05:51
pittihow was your's?05:51
didrockswas nice, removed 4 radiators, put 3 new ones, and a lot of walking in the city :)05:55
pittididrocks: some sightseeing/culture?05:56
didrockspitti: sightseeing mostly (Julie still doesn't know the full city ;)) and just enjoying the last sunny week-end together :-)05:57
pittiindeed, was sunny here as well (but quite cold already)05:57
RAOFThat's a lot of radiators.  I might be missing context :)05:57
TheMusoRAOF: heaters I suspect.05:59
didrocksRAOF: heh, just that the previous heaters were just basic electric one where you can burn yourself if you touch them. I bought some that doesn't use so much power than the previous one06:00
RAOFI'm always a fan of not burning myself on household surfaces :)06:01
smspillazhi @ all06:03
RAOFHey smspillaz06:03
smspillazhi06:06
smspillazdidrocks: hi :)06:12
didrockshey smspillaz06:12
smspillazdidrocks: do you know when the timer is up for compiz ?06:12
didrockssmspillaz: next Wednesday, has we pushed a version on Wednesday IIRC06:12
smspillazok06:12
smspillazthere's some stuff that got clobbered in the process of making the patches, so I'm just fixing that up now, so I'll have a merge proposal to fix all that up06:13
* smspillaz did a diff between lp:../oneiric and the distro version with the patches applied and noticed that there are bits and pieces missing06:13
didrockssmspillaz: can you precise?06:15
didrockssmspillaz: please don't add diff for the purpose of adding diff from the previous version, think about the SRU team who reviews all patches06:16
smspillazdidrocks: some of the fixes are not working exactly as they should because there are bits and pieces missing http://paste.ubuntu.com/710581/06:21
smspillazdidrocks: I can add a comment to each bit explaining what it does if you want06:21
didrockssmspillaz: do you have the list of bugs that aren't fixed then? :/06:21
smspillazsure, hang on06:22
didrockspitti: FYI ^06:22
smspillazdidrocks: I'll comment on each of those bugs with the missing diff06:22
didrockssmspillaz: are there only bugs not fixed?06:22
smspillazdidrocks: what do you mean ?06:22
didrockssmspillaz: is there some side-effect to not have the full patch?06:22
didrockssmspillaz: and how come we only had partial diff?06:22
didrocksit reminds me that the empty patches you gave to me06:23
smspillazdidrocks: yes, I will explain in each bug, and we only had partial diffs likely because we got clobbered patches due to the divergence with trunk :)06:23
didrocksdo you check that the patch applies or do you just reforce it?06:23
didrocksso you had patch rejected06:23
smspillazoh, I checked they applied06:23
didrocksand didn't read the output?06:23
smspillazright, I had to refresh some of them06:23
smspillazyes06:23
smspillazI read the output06:23
didrockswell, you gave me empty patches at some point06:23
smspillazthat was a while back, I fixed those06:23
didrocksso how come there are missing chunks?06:24
smspillazcontext changes, some patches overlapped, etc06:24
smspillazthe diff with the tarballs is getting quite big now, you know that errors can occur due to this :)06:24
didrocksyeah, but apparently, it's more than one error06:25
didrocksand not the first time06:25
didrocksso I want to understand so that it's avoided in the future06:26
didrockswhat missed? more rigor?06:26
smspillazit will be avoided in the future when I get trunk into a state where you can just pull from it :)06:26
smspillaz(and I'm almost done with that :))06:26
didrocksI mean for Oneiric?06:26
didrocksI guess we will still have some released06:26
didrockspatches*06:26
didrocksso, how can we do this for Oneiric?06:26
smspillazdiff -r theoneiricbranch theubuntubranch06:27
smspillazat least thats how I caught these :)06:27
didrockssmspillaz: so can you do that next time before?06:28
smspillazsure06:28
didrocksso that I don't end up notifying you of empty patches06:28
smspillaz:)06:28
didrockssmspillaz: ok, so, do you have the list of bugs?06:28
smspillazthe empty patches occur usually when some patches overlap06:28
didrocksthat are impacted06:28
smspillazI'm just collecting them all now06:28
didrocksyeah, and the output tells you "can't apply chuck…"06:29
didrocksso I have hard time to understand how you read the output :)06:29
smspillazright, so usually I go in to fix it in the source, and then its already there :)06:34
smspillazand then it happens that some *other* patch comes along and removes that same chunk :)06:34
didrockssmspillaz: so rigor and wondering why it doesn't apply was the issue again, right?06:37
smspillazof course06:38
smspillazthings just get ... complicated when you've got about 15 or so bugfix patches which all touch the same bit of code :)06:38
smspillazdidrocks: anyways, what I'll do right now is go in and fix each individual patch, they all have bug numbers attached to them and then I will comment on each bug and give you the list of bugs that are affected with the diff once that's done06:39
didrockssmspillaz: well, it's just a question of keeping calm and being rigorous. Doing one thing after another06:40
didrockswhich is the same when I have a unity release and 10+ updates to handle06:40
didrockssmspillaz: yes, please, give me the list of failure, so that pitti can be aware about them and we can remove them from the SRU list06:40
didrocksit's just a week lost and a pity…06:40
smspillazdidrocks: well, we can do this for the next SRU, right ?06:41
pittididrocks: why a week lost?06:41
smspillazand then we'll just mark them as fix-committed rather than fix released06:41
didrockssmspillaz: well, right now, the SRU will be blocked06:41
pittididrocks: there was one bug in the current SRUs which had a (questionable) failure, but that woudln't block -updates promotion06:41
didrockssmspillaz: because registered bugs as SRU won't be pushed, hence we need to clean the list06:41
didrockspitti: some bugs on the list won't be fixed apparently06:42
didrockspitti: so we need to remove them from the list06:42
pittiah06:42
smspillazI'll make it clear those that the missing bits are harmless, they just don't *completely* fix some bugs06:42
didrocksas the full patches weren't deliver (I even get, as I mentioned before, some empty patches that I spotted)06:42
smspillaz(eg, there's some edge cases where you might still get the bug)06:42
didrockssmspillaz: yeah, that's why we need this list, to pop them out of the SRU list06:42
didrockssmspillaz: http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/pending-sru.html06:43
didrockssmspillaz: see compiz and cpm on the oneiric lsit06:43
didrockssmspillaz: green are confirmed bug fixes, red is failure and blue are untested06:43
smspillazdidrocks: yeah, so 866752 might still happen in some cases, but the majority of other cases are fixed at least06:44
didrockssmspillaz: just get the list so that we can act on them :)06:44
=== tkamppeter_ is now known as tkamppeter
smspillazsure, doing that now :)06:44
didrockssmspillaz: 4.24.0 is already out, what bugs have set to fix committed last Friday?06:56
didrockssmspillaz: I see https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/86311406:56
ubot2Launchpad bug 863114 in unity "Cannot raise window from panel after minimize" [High,Fix committed]06:56
* didrocks retargets to 4.2606:56
didrockssmspillaz: needs the other06:56
didrockssmspillaz: urgh, all bugs are fix released already06:57
didrockssmspillaz: I kept them fix committed for my script removing the cruft for the rest :/06:57
didrocks*sigh* will spend another 2 hours on it opening every bugs one after another06:58
smspillazdidrocks: someone changed them to fix released ?06:59
didrocksyeah06:59
* RAOF is unconvinced that adding 3000 lines of staging zcache driver and hooking it up to all the filesystems is appropriate for an SRU...07:06
pittiRAOF: *nod* that sounds a bit excessive07:06
RAOFHm.  In addition to a bunch of config changes.  There may need to be a little education :)07:08
smspillazdidrocks: ok, repatching done, updating the bugs now07:22
didrockssmspillaz: can you send the list back?07:22
rickspencer3didrocks, good morning07:25
didrockshey rickspencer307:26
smspillazdidrocks: sure thing :)07:26
rickspencer3didrocks, is the recipe for how to clean out your history from Unity written down anywhere?07:27
didrocksrickspencer3: you mean, in alt + F2?07:27
rickspencer3didrocks, nah, I was going to work on an indicator to turn off collecting dash history, and having a command to clear it out07:28
rickspencer3you told me how to do it a while back, so I was wondering if it was actually written down in a blog or bug or something about how to do it07:28
didrocksrickspencer3: basically, it's removing zeitgeist history, I think some sqlite requests will be needed if you don't want to remove everything. kamstrup wouldd know more.07:29
RAOFThere's an app for that :)07:29
RAOF(Isn't there?)07:29
didrocksyeah, in gnome-activity-journal07:29
didrocksrickspencer3: if you want to do it manually, it's about killing zeitgeist-daemon and zeitgeist-datahub, then rm ~/.local/share/zeitgeist/07:30
didrocksthere is a cache in unity, so a new search is then needed to clear it up IIRC07:31
rickspencer3RAOF, I want to make an indicator, so you can go into "stealth" mode, will gnome-activity-journal do that?07:31
didrocksno, it didn't support last time I check07:31
rickspencer3didrocks, I seem to recall that you have to move the gnome mru list too07:31
didrocksbut I guess it was planned07:31
didrocksrickspencer3: oh right, for datahub not picking it back07:32
rickspencer3I'll look around at the activity journal07:32
didrocks(~/.local/share/recently-used.xbel)07:32
RAOFrickspencer3: I don't know, but a naive d-feet suggests that you might want to try disabling all the datasources in /org/gnome/zeitgeist/data_source_registry07:33
didrocksRAOF: it doesn't clean the history though07:34
RAOFdidrocks: Yeah, but that doesn't sound like what rickspencer3's after, which would be a ?private browsing? mode.  You don't need to clean the history if you don't generate any?07:35
didrocksI'm not sure :) can be as well "for now, I just want to start in a clean mode so that nobody can see my $very_private_reports while I'm doing a presentation"07:36
smspillazdidrocks: bugs 864330 864478 865696 807487 79659407:37
ubot2Launchpad bug 864330 in compiz "The larger windows, moving towed." [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/86433007:37
smspillazI think some of them are targed for SRU1 though07:37
smspillazso I guess we should retarget all the ones that *were* SRU0 to SRU1 and then change the status to fix committed ?07:38
didrockssmspillaz: not all, but all from that list, yeah07:38
smspillazsure thing07:38
smspillazdidrocks: the only one that needs changing from fixreleased to fixcommitted is that one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz-core/+bug/86447807:40
ubot2Launchpad bug 864478 in compiz "Window shading is broken" [Undecided,Fix committed]07:40
RAOFWindow shading was *expected* to work? :)07:40
smspillazRAOF: it got broken a bit by some changes I did to the reparenting code07:40
smspillazRAOF: I was fixing a focus bug when I noticed that it handled the shading case and then I actually tried to shade a window and then it made my window disappear07:41
smspillazits mostly fixed now, except that compiz paints the full frame of the window rather than the shaded one07:41
didrockssmspillaz: apart from bug #864330, none of them was pushed on the SRU list07:41
ubot2Launchpad bug 864330 in compiz "The larger windows, moving towed." [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/86433007:41
didrockssmspillaz: there is no patch with those numbers07:41
smspillazdidrocks: I think its the same as 86675207:42
smspillazdidrocks: I'll dupe it07:42
didrockssmspillaz: yeah, duplicate please07:42
didrockssmspillaz: so, that's normal that they weren't pushed, I don't get what was wrong then with those07:42
smspillazdone07:42
didrocksall of this is so confusing, as always with compiz :)07:42
smspillazdidrocks: you mean everything apart from 864330 ?07:43
smspillazdidrocks: there were slight deviations07:43
didrockssmspillaz: yeah, see the bug #07:43
smspillazso I corrected them07:43
didrockssmspillaz: there was not on the patch + SRU fixed list you gave to me last time07:43
smspillazdidrocks: and then there were a few patches that were missing which were targed for SRU1 anyways, so I did those07:43
didrockssmspillaz: ok, so you meant, patches that were missing07:44
didrocksnot half-pushed patches07:44
smspillazright, but they were targed for SRU1 anyways07:44
smspillazdidrocks: I'll set up a merge proposal now07:44
rodrigo_morning07:44
didrockssmspillaz: well, wait for the other version to be pushed07:44
smspillazgrrrrr, why does skype break the kde plugin07:44
didrockssmspillaz: I know you will have more07:44
smspillazdidrocks: :)07:45
didrocks:)07:45
smspillazdidrocks: right, although I'm doing all the merge proposals today since I need to take some time off to finish some uni work07:45
didrockspitti: RAOF: new nux and unity (finally \o/) proposed in… -proposed :)07:45
pittiyay07:45
didrockssmspillaz: sure, ensure the test case is there07:45
smspillazdidrocks: yep07:45
didrockspitti: running since Wednesday, then, noticed some regressions and cherry-pick on Thursday and Friday07:46
didrockspitti: running since Friday reasonably well here07:46
smspillazRAOF: what's a huge window size that's more than the max_texture_size that I can set which won't return a BadAlloc ?07:49
RAOFsmspillaz: 8888 x 1?07:51
SweetsharkBonjour, Good morning, Moin!07:55
* Sweetshark survived Libreoffice conference in Paris.07:56
chrisccoulsongood morning everyone07:57
pittihey Sweetshark, welcome back; was it interesting?07:57
pittihey chrisccoulson07:58
chrisccoulsonhi pitti, how are you?07:58
didrocksgood morning Sweetshark, chrisccoulson07:58
chrisccoulsonhi didrocks07:58
Sweetsharkpitti: oh, yes. I wonder how I will be abl to write a trip report that wont be a book.08:07
Sweetsharkpitti: and making it to slashdot twice with the first conference is also a nice achivement, I guess. http://mobile.slashdot.org/story/11/10/15/010253/libreoffice-going-online-and-mobile and http://developers.slashdot.org/story/11/10/14/1531252/openoffice-is-dying-and-ibm-wont-help08:08
smspillazdidrocks: ok, testacses done08:09
didrocksgreat08:09
seb128hey08:17
pittibonjour seb12808:21
seb128hey pitti, how are you?08:21
pittiseb128: pretty good, thanks! how about you?08:21
didrockssalut seb12808:21
seb128pitti, got a small start of cold over the w.e but otherwise I'm good thanks08:22
seb128lut didrocks08:22
pittiseb128: hope it won't be too bad :/08:24
seb128yeah, seems to be ok for now so let's see how it goes08:25
mptGood morning folks ... I have a quiz question: Other than Ubuntu, which Gnome-using OSes have a guest session feature? (This is relating to redesigning Startup Applications)08:26
chrisccoulsonhi seb12808:26
mptDoes Debian, for example?08:27
rickspencer3 mpt I08:27
seb128hey chrisccoulson, mpt, rickspencer308:28
seb128how are you?08:28
rickspencer3m pretty sure that Guest session is a Ubuntu innovation, and that it's pitti08:28
rickspencer3bonjour seb12808:28
seb128mpt, nobody else has a guest session that I know about08:28
rickspencer3je vais tres bien08:28
rickspencer3et tois?08:28
seb128rickspencer3, je vais bien merci !08:28
Sweetsharkhttp://people.gnome.org/~michael/data/2011-10-10-lool-demo.webm <- anyone interested in Libreoffice in the browser should have a look at that video btw08:36
seb128hey Sweetshark08:36
seb128I've seen it, it seems the same desktop ui copied in a web browser08:36
Sweetsharkits libreoffice running in firefox via gtk3/broadway08:37
seb128it's nice but not really impressive either, I would think a web version would be much simpler and with a nicer ui08:37
Sweetsharkseb128: well, it is really a proof-of-concept only. But getting the ui simpler is not the hard part.08:38
seb128Sweetshark, speaking of libreoffice do you know if there is any chance it stops using gnome-vfs next cycle? ;-)08:39
Sweetsharkseb128: I have seem "Cloudoffice" and they tried to recreate OOo by a rewrite from scratch. It was a mess for all the layouting etc. to get real WYSIWYG.08:39
seb128gnomevfs is deprecated for years and only on CD because of libreoffice now, I wish they would clean their desktop code rather than doing web prototypes :p08:40
seb128Sweetshark, yeah, the issue is to compete with i.e google doc, not going to be easy ;-)08:40
mptthanks seb12808:40
seb128mpt, yw08:40
rickspencer3didrocks, after I kill z-daemon and z-datahub and delete the dir, files, I just start z-daemon again, or does unity start it for me?08:41
Sweetsharkseb128: If you give me an action item about it and either a) kill enough of the other action items for me or b) get me more human resources, sure.08:41
didrocksrickspencer3: the lens will start it for you08:41
didrocksrickspencer3: so it should reconnect08:41
rickspencer3thanks didrocks08:41
rickspencer3so, for delete my history it08:41
rickspencer3s easy08:41
seb128Sweetshark, I'm not in a position to give action items but I can bring it up to jasoncwarner_ and pitti at UDS ;-)08:42
rickspencer3for "private browsing mode" I guess I need to make the dirs and files read only08:42
seb128uninstall zg, easier ;-)08:42
didrocksquite a harsh solution, but I guess yeah :-)08:42
didrockskamstrup: will zg survive ? ^08:42
seb128the issue is that if you i.e delete recently-used.xbl you will loose all your '"recently open" in applications08:43
seb128i.e gedit's fileselectors or file menu08:43
didrocksseb128: I guess that's the goal08:43
seb128didrocks, I tend to want to clean the lens view there08:43
didrocksor mv it for a presentation08:43
seb128but I don't want to drop my gedit history08:43
loolGah, how many lools will I get due to the new LO web service08:43
Sweetsharkseb128: really, making the interface simple isnt too much of work compared to always getting the layout right.08:44
seb128hey lool08:44
loolHey seb128!  :-)08:44
didrockshey lool :-)08:44
seb128Sweetshark, right08:44
Sweetsharkhey, lool08:44
rodrigo_brb08:44
seb128didrocks, rickspencer3: use the guest session for demos ;-)08:44
loolI'll launch a web UI for Ubuntu Desktop and call it seb128-didrocks-ping!.webm08:44
rickspencer3seb128, I intent to get rich off of this app08:44
seb128lool, trying to make friends? ;-)08:44
rickspencer3it'll sell like hotcakes08:45
rickspencer3;)08:45
seb128lol08:45
Sweetsharklol lool?08:45
didrocksseb128: I don't have credentials in my guest session to show install/uninstall demo :-)08:45
rickspencer3oops08:45
rickspencer3I deleted ~/.local/share/zeitgeist, and it's not coming back ;)08:46
seb128didrocks, good point, use a demo account ;-)08:46
rickspencer3maybe I need to do something08:46
didrocksseb128: yeah, not a nice woarkaround :)08:46
seb128pfiou, I had 1200 bug emails in my launchpad desktop box from the w.e08:46
didrocksrickspencer3: not coming back -> zg?08:46
seb128down to 781 by cleaning the janitor expiration emails08:46
seb128that's a good thing ;-)08:46
didrocksrickspencer3: even if you open a lens ?08:47
seb128still 781 emails, hate releases :p08:47
didrocksseb128: you can take some rest now, you just triaged more than 60% :-)08:47
didrocksah down to08:47
didrocksso no, 40% :)08:47
czajkowskiMorning folks09:02
didrockshey czajkowski09:03
czajkowskiI see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/875054  bug is back again :/09:03
ubot2Launchpad bug 875054 in linux "[Oneiric][Regression[ Oneiric spontaneously powers off" [Undecided,Confirmed]09:03
czajkowskithat used to happen me in natty the whole time09:03
rickspencer3didrocks, so, I killed z-daemon ... then went to use the dash, it doesn't look like z-daemon started up again09:06
rickspencer3I had to manually restart it, which made it build a new ~/.local/share/zeitgest, btw09:07
tkamppeterrodrigo_, hi09:08
rodrigo_hi tkamppeter09:08
tkamppeterAny new ideas about the s-c-p problem with gnome-shell?09:09
tkamppeterrodrigo_, ^09:09
rodrigo_tkamppeter, not much, have been thinking about it, I can see only 2 solutions: leave it as it is, or use s-c-p also in gnome-shell09:10
tkamppeterrodrigo_, I would prefer the latter.09:11
rodrigo_tbh, I'd prefer to leave it as it is09:11
rodrigo_for oneiric I mean09:12
didrocksrickspencer3: interesting, and did you try to just kill one lens daemon?09:12
rodrigo_I haven't seen many complains from users, have you tkamppeter?09:12
rickspencer3didrocks, what I did was kill zeitgeist-daemon09:13
didrocksrickspencer3: maybe only restarting the lens daemon restarts zg, which is a bug in this case (and wasn't doing that before IIRC)09:13
rickspencer3this killed zeitgeist-datahub for me09:13
rodrigo_brb, need to reboot09:13
rickspencer3then messing around in the dash didn't restart it09:13
rickspencer3didrocks, this is actually better for me, if it works this way09:13
didrocksrickspencer3: try killing unity-application-daemon for instance and start the application lens09:13
rickspencer3I can just "turn off" zeitgeist-daemon by killing it09:13
rickspencer3and then "turn it on" again09:14
didrocksrickspencer3: yeah, that's better, but still an issue we should fix for Precise though :-)09:14
rickspencer3didrocks, how is it an issue?09:15
rickspencer3a user kills zeitgeist, it should stay dead09:15
didrocksrickspencer3: that means that if zg crash, nothing restart it until you restart the lenses09:15
rickspencer3I hate when I try to kill things and they just respawn09:15
didrocksso no more search will work until you restart the session/restart the lens09:16
rickspencer3didrocks, the lens still works09:16
rickspencer3it's just that zeitgeist has stopped logging data09:16
didrockswithout zg running? you get new results for new search?09:16
didrocks(not just the cached ones)09:16
rickspencer3didrocks, I dunno, I deleted the databases09:16
rickspencer3let me try out the different scenarios09:17
rickspencer3didrocks, I did not get new results, because the whole point was to make it stop logging results :)09:17
didrocksrickspencer3: yeah, but I'm thinking about the "normal crash" case :)09:18
rickspencer3didrocks, I think it would be nice if z-daemon had an interface so you could tell it to start and stop logging09:19
rickspencer3and to clear data as well09:19
rickspencer3maybe I'll see about adding that for precise09:19
didrocksrickspencer3: we discussed that this morning with kamstrup09:20
didrocksrickspencer3: he agreed on the dbus interface09:20
rickspencer3sweet09:20
rickspencer3nm ;)09:20
didrocksbut sure, for precise :-)09:20
didrocksyour workaround will be good enough for oneiric I guess :-)09:20
didrocksand you can make billions :p09:20
rickspencer3didrocks, I will invite you to my Italian Villa that I plan to buy with the proceeds09:21
didrocks\o/09:21
seifrickspencer3, we do have an interface for that09:22
rickspencer3seif, do tell09:22
tkamppeterrodrigo_, only complaint I am aware of is the bug we are discussing (and your need to reboot :-).09:22
rodrigo_tkamppeter, right, so doesn't seem too critical to justify a UI change at this time for oneiric, right?09:23
tkamppeterrodrigo_, OK. Can you close the bug then?09:23
seifrickspencer3, http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2011/05/activity-log-manager-for-zeitgeist-lets-you-blacklist-files-and-apps-delete-your-history-more/09:24
seifrickspencer3, we allow disabling logging over dbus already09:24
rickspencer3seif, I see09:24
seif:)09:24
seifand this is just a UI09:24
rickspencer3seif, can you point me to the API docs?09:24
rodrigo_tkamppeter, leave it open for P I guess?09:25
tkamppeterrodrigo_, OK.09:25
seifrickspencer3, gimmie a moment09:26
seifwe changed the api in 0.809:26
seifdont think we documented this part yet09:26
seifas in we changed the api of the blacklist extnesion for zeitgeist09:27
seifnot of zeitgeist09:27
didrocksseif: that doesn't enable going in some kind of "private mode" though?09:27
seifdidrocks, it does09:27
didrocksoh nice, even kamstrup wasn't aware then :)09:27
rickspencer3seif, I just want to tell zeitgeist to stop logging, and then to tell it to start logging again09:27
rickspencer3is there a code sample to show me how to do that?09:27
seifrickspencer3, yes09:27
seifthe code i can give you09:27
rickspencer3seif, sweet09:28
rickspencer3python by change?09:28
seifdidrocks, bascially u give it an empty event to blakclist and it tops logging09:28
seifrickspencer3, its in python09:28
tkamppeterrodrigo_, can you at least add a comment to the bug? Thanks.09:29
rickspencer3seif, sweet09:29

rickspencer3seif, so this is a library you wrote?09:36
seifrickspencer3, yep09:36
seifits covers the zeitgeist-blacklist extension09:36
rickspencer3cool09:36
seifit wraps aorund dbus09:36
rickspencer3damn I hate dbus programming09:40
seifrickspencer3, it also works with the vala zeitgeist09:40
rickspencer3every. f'ing. time.09:40
seifrickspencer3, tell me what you want me to do i can do it for you09:40
seifi got some time on my hand09:40
rickspencer3seif,  it's not your fault09:40
seifand i miss python programing09:40
rickspencer3it's this crap:09:40
rickspencer3RuntimeError: To make asynchronous calls, receive signals or export objects, D-Bus connections must be attached to a main loop by passing mainloop=... to the constructor or calling dbus.set_default_main_loop(...)09:40
seifi feel ur pain09:41
rickspencer3whenever we tell app developers to use dbus, we may as well tell them not to program for Ubuntu09:41
uksysadminwell I had fun (and judging by the increase in traffic to my blog on a fix) upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10. who do I need to kick over it breaking networking for lots people? ;-)09:44
seifrickspencer3, thus the library :)09:44
seifdidrocks, r u up for testing the new zeitgeist with us09:45
seifwe have been doing some internal tests09:45
didrocksseif: well, still on SRUs there and trying to get things in shape09:46
didrocksseif: is this a bug fix only release?09:46
mvo uksysadmin: there is a open bug about this against network-manager #85937309:46
seifSRU?09:46
seifdidrocks, nope09:46
rickspencer3seif, indeed09:46
seifits the vala port (which fixes tons of bugs with it)09:46
rickspencer3however, I am dead in the water09:46
didrocksseif: hum, I'll maybe try next week then, I prefer to keep on the current platform :)09:46
rickspencer3I can't figure out how to tell dbus to use my main loop09:47
didrocksseif: just ping me back in a week09:47
seifrickspencer3, how can i help you09:47
seifwhat is ur idea09:47
seifi could hack it for you :)09:47
didrocksseif: and we will try to push it asap in precise09:47
rickspencer3lol09:47
rickspencer3seif, how do other people contend with the error I am getting in their apps?09:47
seifi bug my team to fix my code for me :)09:48
seifnot optimal09:48
rickspencer3seif, heh09:48
didrocksrickspencer3: from dbus.mainloop.glib import DBusGMainLoop09:48
seifrickspencer3, but what is ur idea09:48
rickspencer3I think there is something I can do when I am setting up my gtk.main loop09:48
didrocks    DBusGMainLoop(set_as_default=True)09:48
didrocks    loop = GObject.MainLoop()09:48
rickspencer3sweet09:48

rickspencer3thanks didrocks09:48
uksysadminmvo, I don't believe that's the issue I saw and '000s others: http://uksysadmin.wordpress.com/2011/10/14/upgrade-to-ubuntu-11-10-problem-waiting-for-network-configuration-then-black-screen-solution/09:48
rickspencer3didrocks, prolly09:48
rickspencer3didrocks, I've struggled with this before09:48
uksysadminlooks like an upgrade didn't sort out the filesystem properly creating multiple places for runtime files and locks09:48

mvouksysadmin: oh, indeed, this is a different one09:51
mvouksysadmin: do you happen to know if its only vmware workstation that triggers this? or can it happen for other reasons too?09:52
uksysadmineffectively broke my installation and many others... reboot... waiting 3mins for boot, then presented with black screen09:52
uksysadminreal hardware09:52
mvouksysadmin: no question that this is a serious issue09:52
uksysadminindeed09:52
uksysadminshowstopper for many09:52
uksysadminif the fix is to symlink /var/run to /run and /var/lock /to /run/lock it seems the upgrade forgot that the old areas (/var/run and /var/lock) exist and maybe can't be removed as they're in use to allow for 11.10 to point this all to /run which is now a tmpfs09:55
uksysadminon a clean install of 11.10 /var/run and /var/lock are symlinks to /run and /run/lock09:55
uksysadmineasy-ish fix once you know how, but for many desktop users and Ubuntu's image of it being a preferred desktop linux of choice due to it "just working" broke that in 11.1009:56
mvouksysadmin: is this analysis already in the bugreport? sorry, I have not read it all, but Steve Slangasek commented in it twice,  I wonder if all information is in the bugreport09:58
uksysadminlet me do some searching to see if this is explicitly stated in a bug and add this if necessary09:59

seb128kenvandine, there is a bunch of segfault and other issues, some could be due the indicator or unity integration glitches, some can be worth upstreaming13:16
seb128kenvandine, I noticed we got a bunch of bugs about it13:16
kenvandinefor empathy?13:16

dobeyseb128: i did. backspaced all the way to /, and typed "et" and etc was selected13:29
seb128dobey, right, and the typeahead entry closed right?13:30
dobeylet me check again, but don't think so13:30
seb128dobey, ok, do that, type etc and type etc again13:30
dobeyno13:30

seb128right13:30
seb128then type etc again13:30
seb128then try to use typeahead13:31
seb128here I type "etc", it selected it, I wait, I type "e", the selection unselects itself and typeahead is broken13:31
dobeyok, i hit another bug13:31
dobeybut not the one described13:31
seb128there as several variants13:32
seb128if you try to browse a few directories you will hit issues13:32
seb128like try to do etc, enter, apt, enter, sources.list13:32
seb128it's likely you will hit the typeahead entry closing while you are still typing13:32
seb128or the selection vanishing and typeahead which stops working13:33
dobeyseb128: it breaks after i hit "enter" on a selected folder from the typeahead, after which typeahead just stops working completely in that nautilus window13:33
dobeythe search window never pops up again, and typing does nothing13:34
seb128right13:34
seb128well it's not specific to enter13:34
seb128dobey, like if instead of typing "etc" you type "e" and enter it will enter etc and still work13:34
seb128but it will not clear the entry13:34

didrockspitti: ah ok, was wondering :)14:50
pittididrocks: sorry, you mean s/push/upload/?14:51
didrockswell, it's only gnome-menu 3.2.0.1, I'll diverge later then and do both upload for .114:51
pittiI thought I just pushed without uploading14:51
didrockspitti: yeah14:51
didrockspitti: hence I was wondering if you wanted that in -proposed or not14:51
pittino, these branches should be for the devel version only14:51

didrocksjust noticed I spent more time reconciling the branch than working, so ended up to just apt-get source14:53
seb128didrocks, pitti: I usually use the vcs for srus until there is divergence then apt-get source14:56
seb128but I've nothing against others creating sru vcs-es, I just didn't feel it was worth doing before14:56
didrocksI don't care either way TBH, I'm using the vcs for where we don't diverge as well :)14:56
didrockswaow, gedit 3.2.1 replaced a GtkTable by a GtkGrid14:58

ubot2Launchpad bug 840858 in gnome-control-center "No obvious way to disable Ubuntu startup sound" [Low,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/84085815:05
seb128didrocks, no, it stopped updating on friday it seems not sure why15:05
seb128guess something in the script didn't like the serie changes on launchpad15:05
didrocksseb128: yeah, ok, will look at it. Just testing a little bit more my new updates15:05
seb128(random guess)15:05
didrocksyeah, probably15:06
didrocksbrb15:09
CarlFKseb128: thanks.15:10
seb128CarlFK, yw15:10
CarlFKany idea how I can do it from a script?  or where the patch is, maybe that will give me a clue15:11
mdeslaurseb128: is the user indicator switcher thingy gone from the default oneiric desktop? how do I remove it from mine?15:14
seb128mdeslaur, no it's not15:14
seb128you mean the menu with your name?15:14
mdeslaurseb128: yes, that one15:15
seb128it's hidden if there is only one user15:15
mdeslaurseb128: ah, guess mine's broken then15:15
seb128mdeslaur, or you can run dconf-editor -> apps -> indicator-sessions15:15
seb128there is a "user-show-menu" key15:15
mdeslaurhmm, I wonder why mine is showing and I only have 1 user15:17
didrocksseb128: wasn't it reverted even if you have one user?15:19
didrockslike, always show now?15:19
mdeslaurdidrocks: my default install on my test laptop doesn't show it15:19
didrocksmdeslaur: oh? ok, so a bug somewhere, I do see it there with only one user15:20
didrocksand when I asked I was told the decision was changed to always see it15:20
didrocks(but that was more than a month ago)15:20
seb128didrocks, not sure, but guest account count as an user as well15:21
seb128didrocks, if you disable guest account it might get hidden15:21
didrocksah, that can explain it if mdeslaur has remove the guest account :)15:21
didrocksremoved*15:21
mdeslauroh! let me try that15:22
seb128mdeslaur, did you disable the guest account?15:22
mdeslauryou know how paranoid us security people are15:22
didrocksthey disable everything! :p15:22
seb128mdeslaur, well you said "test laptop", I didn't knew you were paranoid about test machines as well :p15:22
mdeslaurseb128: I installed it to specifically test how to disable the guest account from appearing in lightdm, as I had some complaints from people way more paranoid than I am15:23
seb128mdeslaur, ;-)15:23
didrocksif this is really the case, the behavior makes sense15:24
mdeslaurseb128, didrocks: ok, confirmed15:24
mdeslaurmy fault, sorry for the noise15:24
seb128no worry15:24
seb128that also answers didrocks' question15:24
seb128they still hide it ;-)15:24
mdeslaurseb128: before I blog about it, there's no GUI to disable the guest account, right? it's a lightdm.conf setting only?15:25
seb128mdeslaur, correct15:26
mdeslaurseb128: ok, thanks15:26
seb128yw15:26
didrocksgreat then, I think they have hidden it even with guest session being there first15:26
didrocksbut the current behavior is better15:26

xclaesseseb128, didrocks: is there an important reason why we don't have gdm 3.2 in oneiric?16:00
jbichaxclaesse: GDM 3.2 doesn't work well in Ubuntu yet16:01
seb128xclaesse, define "important"? I think ricotz looked at it but didn't get it to work. Otherwise nobody cared enough to do the update since it's community maintained since we switched to lightdm for Ubuntu16:01
didrocksxclaesse: what jbicha said, people taking more deep look at this are jbicha and ricotz (as they look at GNOME Shell)16:02
seb128or "we had too much to do and it's a priority since it's not our default dm and nobody stepped up to help"16:02
jbichaand GDM 3.0 is stable as we've been using it for 6 months16:02
xclaesseyeah by "important" i meant something like does it totally break, or is it just like for totem lack of space, etc16:03
jbichaseb128: could you accept my totem in the oneiric-proposed queue?16:03
seb128jbicha, no, I'm not in the sru team, but pitti probably can16:03
xclaessedoes lightdm does on-screen keyboard?16:04
ricb17I'm having trouble accessing a windows DFS share via 10.4 LTS, but it works fine on 11.0416:04

jbichaxclaesse: there's an experimental GDM 3.2 build at https://launchpad.net/~tista/+archive/gtk3/+packages16:04
ricb17anyone have any suggestions on how to see what package may need to be upgraded?16:04
xclaesseseb128, FYI setting autologin user in gdm makes it not start at all on oneiric16:06
didrocksxclaesse: it can run onboard, yeah16:06
xclaessedidrocks, is that the small ugly window like 10 years ago, or a nice thing like caribou ?16:07
didrocksxclaesse: it's a tweak one, there are colors IIRC now for making it more accessible16:07

slangasekmvo: the upgrade hasn't "forgotten" /var/run and /var/lock; /etc/rc6.d has been scrambled, making it impossible for the migration code to run reliably16:52

xclaessericotz, yep, that's what I mean, the package broken gdm here :)17:12

maxbOk, so I've cp-ed /usr/share/themes/Radiance to /usr/share/themes/MyRadiance before I hack on it a bit, and changed the internal identifiers in index.theme - how do I make the running desktop become aware of the new theme?17:43
jbichamaxb: if you're talking about System Settings>Appearance, that is hard-coded to only support the standard themes + Adwaita, have you tried gnome-tweak-tool?17:47
=== eeejay_is_afk is now known as eeejay
maxbthat.... seems like a spectacularly bizarre decision17:57
geseris this an upstream decision or an Ubuntu one?17:59

luckyduckI've tried different nvidia drivers (dual monitor setup), but all of them seem to have issues.18:37

luckyduck(generally the windows are laggy)18:39
cyphermoxluckyduck: what kind of issues, just laggy effects?18:51
geserjjardon: I saw that you marked bug #835297 as a dupe of bug #855287. It describes the same problem but I doubt that fix to lupin would fix my issue too as I got this problem from an upgrade from natty to the (at that time) development version and my installation is several releases old.18:54
