burlidoes Ubuntu TV use a window manager?19:47
tgm4883burli, it uses Unity20:02
burlitgm4883, Unity is not a Window Manager20:04
tgm4883but compiz is20:04
burliyeah, but Ubuntu TV uses Unity-2D20:04
burlias far as I know20:04
burliand Unity-2D normally uses Metacity20:05
burlibut I dont see a need for a window manager on a TV, because there are no "windows"20:05
burlithats why I ask20:05
tgm4883I don't know enough about the future of ubuntuTV to answer that question in terms of what is the target20:05
mcbaine1 Hi there ::: I'm really excited about going to FOSDEM  ... I put an advert in the national newspaper to see if anyone else is going and to get in touch etc... Anybody available for abit of travelling / FLOSS advice here atmo.   ??20:14
tgm4883burli, according to wikipedia, Unity 2D can use metacity or something like compiz or kwin20:15
burlitgm4883, shure. Currently I run Mutter instead of Metacity. The questions is: does Ubuntu TV use/needs a windows manager?20:16
tgm4883IDK, Is there any particular reason it shouldn't have one?20:17
burliIDK?20:21
tgm4883I Don't Know20:24
burliah, ok20:25
burlithe reason is, there are no "windows". As far as I can see there is just a full screen background for the video and a full screen overlay for the Dash20:26
tgm4883AFAIK, you can still launch applications20:27
tgm4883it has the possibility to be much more than a TV20:27
burlithats what I try to find out20:28
burlimaybe my laptop will crash now. brb ;)20:30
popeynot sure these things have been decided20:30
burlistill alive20:32
burlipopey, probably not20:34
