| nessita | hello everyone! I have a quick question re: using alt+F2. That will open the dash for searching, but when I enter programs I know I have installed, I get no results. Any idea if this is expected behavior? | 12:07 |
|---|---|---|
| om26er | nessita, are you typing the fullname of the app ? | 12:09 |
| om26er | if you are searching for empathy for example... type empath and you might get results | 12:10 |
| nessita | om26er: I tried both ways, I start typing the name of the app, I wait a couple of seconds, no results, then I type the full name, no results | 12:10 |
| nessita | om26er: it happened to me with pidgin, deluge so far | 12:11 |
| nessita | om26er: this always happened as soon as I logged in, when I'm starting "all my apps" to setup my desktop | 12:11 |
| nessita | om26er: now that everything booted, the search is working fine | 12:12 |
| nessita | om26er: shall I report a bug? | 12:15 |
| om26er | nessita, if it happens on next login or after installing an other app then yes please report a bug for unity | 12:16 |
| om26er | use 'ubuntu-bug unity' to report Unity bug please. | 12:16 |
| nessita | om26er: ack, thanks. | 12:19 |
| nessita | another question, is there any workaround for this bug under unity 2d? https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/726639 | 12:24 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 726639 in unity (Ubuntu) "F10 is captured even if gnome-terminal setting is explictly set to not capture" [Medium,Triaged] | 12:25 |
| nessita | and also, is there any way to move a window to another workspace (under unity 2d)? | 12:31 |
| om26er | right click on the titlebar thing, not sure for maximized windows though | 12:32 |
| nessita | om26er: ah, I tried that with the windows maximized, trying without | 12:37 |
| nessita | om26er: great, that worked. Thanks! | 12:37 |
| om26er | nessita, yw :) | 12:37 |
| mhall119 | morning | 12:56 |
| mhall119 | nessita: alt+f2 is the "run dialog", it's not entirely equivilent to the Apps lens (which is super+a) | 12:58 |
| nessita | mhall119: exactly, so I would expect alt+f2 to behave like the old run dialog | 12:58 |
| mhall119 | nessita: you can also move windows between workspaces by pressing super+s and dragging them | 12:58 |
| nessita | mhall119: and even if I type the full name of the app and then I hit enter, nothing happens | 12:59 |
| mhall119 | nessita: that does sound like a bug then | 12:59 |
| mhall119 | nessita: are you sure you are using a part of the executable's name? | 13:00 |
| mhall119 | IIRC, alt+f2 only uses that, not anything defined in the app's .desktop file | 13:00 |
| nessita | mhall119: absolutely. My use case is "pidgin" and "deluge-gtk" | 13:00 |
| mhall119 | ok | 13:00 |
| nessita | mhall119: this is unity 2d, fyi | 13:00 |
| nessita | mhall119: would you know if there is any workaround for this bug under unity 2d? https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity/+bug/726639 | 13:01 |
| nessita | is very annoying, specially since I depend on the F10 in the terminal to work | 13:01 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 726639 in unity (Ubuntu) "F10 is captured even if gnome-terminal setting is explictly set to not capture" [Medium,Triaged] | 13:01 |
| nessita | editing the entry with gconf-editor did not work, unless I need to log out and in to that to take effect | 13:02 |
| nessita | mhall119: FYI, when pressing super+s, drag will not work (this is unity 2d). Is that expected? | 13:27 |
| mhall119 | I'm not sure about 2d, it works in 3d | 13:29 |
| nessita | mhall119: thanks. Would you know aboyt the F10 bug I pasted above? or would you know who I can ask? | 13:30 |
| nessita | (rebooting did not make the gconf-editor setting be applied, apparently) | 13:30 |
| mhall119 | no on both accounts, unfortunately | 13:31 |
| nessita | mhall119: thanks anyways :-) | 13:33 |

| nessita | mhall119: the description matches my issue | 15:32 |
| nessita | mhall119: is like the "indexer" needs some time (more than a few seconds) to be ready to do something | 15:33 |

| DBO | not really :) | 17:05 |
| jono | :-) | 17:06 |
| jono | so I have a gift for yoyu | 17:06 |
| jono | a bug :-) | 17:06 |
| DBO | oh god | 17:06 |
| DBO | well it had to happen eventually | 17:06 |
| jono | in 12.04 there are a bunch of multiple icons for apps on the Launcher | 17:06 |
| jono | heh | 17:06 |
| jono | I am noticing XChat-GNOME in particular | 17:06 |
| * DBO marks the time... 3 hours into the new work season... | 17:06 | |
| jono | it has three icons | 17:06 |
| jono | haha | 17:06 |
| jono | DBO, all will be good :-) | 17:06 |
| DBO | can I see a screenshot? | 17:06 |
| jono | sure one sec | 17:07 |
| DBO | so I got some awesome headphones | 17:07 |
| DBO | as an audio junkie, I figure you will appreciate this | 17:07 |

| jono | DBO, nice phones! | 17:08 |
| DBO | interesting | 17:08 |
| DBO | is xchat pinned to the launcher | 17:08 |
| jono | yep XChat and Chromium are Added to the launcher | 17:11 |
| DBO | I wonder if bamfdaemon is crashing on your system somehow | 17:11 |
| DBO | do the multiples seem to show up randomly? | 17:11 |

| AlanBell | oops, sorry | 18:27 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle_: ping | 18:30 |
| statik | mhall119, i love what you have done with singlet. i've got a little lens working, do you know how I can set some results to be shown before any search is done? | 19:51 |
| statik | for example, in the music lens some items are shown even before typing a search phrase | 19:51 |
| mhall119 | statik: not with Singlet | 20:01 |
| mhall119 | not right now anyway | 20:01 |
| mhall119 | it only calls search() when something's been entered | 20:01 |
| mhall119 | using straight dbus you can when the lens is activated | 20:01 |
| mhall119 | I can add that fairly easily though | 20:03 |
| statik | mhall119, here? self._scope.connect ("notify::active", self.on_search_changed); | 20:04 |
| mhall119 | statik: on_search_changed will be called, yes | 20:04 |
| statik | so maybe connecting that to another optional method that people can implement? | 20:04 |
| mhall119 | singlet intercepts that and only calls search if there's a non-None, non-empty string value | 20:04 |
| mhall119 | statik: I'm adding a Meta option to allow it | 20:05 |
| statik | mhall119, sweet | 20:05 |
| statik | mhall119, so then I'll be able to set an attribute in my inner Meta class and my search will be called always, and if the search term is empty I can populate my default results | 20:06 |
| mhall119 | correct | 20:14 |
| statik | mhall119, awesome. let me know and I'm happy to test :) | 20:15 |
| mhall119 | statik: rev 11 | 20:19 |
| mhall119 | put search_on_blank=True in your Meta | 20:19 |
| statik | ta, pulling and testing now | 20:21 |
| statik | mhall119, should I be pulling from lp:~mhall/singlet/trunk instead of lp:~singlet-developers/singlet/trunk ? | 20:23 |
| mhall119 | oops, you should be pulling from lp:singlet, which is singlet-developers now, I just forgot to tell bzr to --remember the new push location | 20:24 |
| mhall119 | it's there now | 20:24 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: ping me when you've got a few minutese | 20:25 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, ping | 20:28 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: hey | 20:34 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: I'd like to spend some time with you to discuss the direction of ohscopes and singlet | 20:35 |
| mhall119 | specifically around getting them packaged and into the repos for 12.04 | 20:35 |
| mick0 | davidcalle: I have some questions about the imdb scope I just got working. Ping me when you got some time. | 20:38 |
| davidcalle | mhall119, nice discussion idea ;) But this will have to wait until my burritos are cooked and eaten. Will you be around in one hour? | 20:39 |
| mgedmin | every now and then I right-click on a launcher icon, get a menu, which then proceeds to ignore mouse events | 20:40 |
| davidcalle | mick0, sure. When I'm back. ;) | 20:40 |
| mgedmin | right-clicking the same icon again makes the menu disappear, right-clicking for the third time usually gives me a normal menu that actually lets me select items | 20:40 |
| mgedmin | no clue how to reproduce this reliably | 20:40 |
| mgedmin | worth filing a bug anyway? | 20:40 |
| mhall119 | davidcalle: yeah, I'll be around until 2200 UTC | 20:41 |
| mhall119 | mgedmin: yes, if nobody else has reported it | 20:41 |

| mgedmin | I've a question about app indicators | 21:40 |
| mgedmin | app_indicator_set_label() has this label argument | 21:40 |
| mgedmin | sorry! 'guide' | 21:40 |

| mgedmin | how is it supposed to be used? | 21:40 |
| mgedmin | here's my attempt: https://github.com/mgedmin/indicator-netspeed/blob/master/indicator-netspeed.c#L94 | 21:42 |
| mgedmin | but the indicator changes size constantly and makes the rest of the indicators jump around in a very irritating fashion | 21:42 |
| * mgedmin wishes libindicator APIs had Unix manual pages... | 21:49 | |
