afiestasoh wait, re-reading it again13:45
shadeslayerIt's native then13:45
afiestasamichair_: I see, it is detected HDMI1 as active and that may be why the desktop is not resized either13:46

ubottuLaunchpad bug 925490 in muon (Ubuntu) "codec install does enable you to play mp3" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/92549014:23
amichairafiestas: this will disable the laptop monitor, not the external one, yes?14:26
afiestasamichair_: yes14:26
afiestasin that case the inhibition will be correct, later we will test the other way around, disabling the HDMI 14:27
afiestasimportant to do everything via command line to be sure that krandr is not playing with us14:27
amichairafiestas: ok, did it: http://pastebin.com/8X5SMFCL14:28
amichairafiestas: how do I re-enable edp1?14:29
afiestasooks, good news is taht this time the "active monitor" list is correct14:29
afiestasxrandr --output eDP1 --auto --output HDMI1 --off14:29
afiestasthis will turn off the HDMI and turn on the eDP114:29
amichairafiestas:  http://pastebin.com/qKFxMG5E14:32
afiestasnow it worked, right?14:33
afiestaskded(29956) PowerDevil::Action::trigger: Unsatisfied policies, the action has been aborted14:33
afiestasoh shit14:33
amichairafiestas: the display resizing yes, the sleep no14:33
afiestasyou are running 4.8.0 I suppose14:33
amichairafiestas: btw, right after a fresh reboot the sleep does seem to work, and also now if I press the sleep (fn+f1) shortcut or select it from shutdown menu. It doesn't work when closing the lid, after I've been using it for a while, or sleeping/resuming, or using HDMI - not quite sure what causes it to start failing14:34
amichairafiestas: unrelated, another annoying bug is that once I reconnect HDMI (like right now), while both monitors work, it doesn't remember the configuration - I'm getting a clone right now, even though before the xrander stuff I had an extended desktop configuration (with HDMI being the primary)14:36
afiestasit will only remember one configuration and not sure if it is working14:36
amichairevery time I plug in or resume HDMI, I have to go into the display settings and re-configure the setup :-/14:36
afiestasI'm in the process of redoing all this because the current thing is... well let's say it is old14:36
amichairit would be great if it remembered the configuration per list of currently connected devices14:37
afiestasit does14:37
afiestas(yes in pressent, the current code I have around here it does that :p)14:37
amichairin that case, it would be great if it did something with that knowledge ;-)14:37
afiestasI hope to have it finished in a few months :p14:37
amichairafiestas: cool! looking forward to it :-)14:37
afiestasgoing back to the inhibition thing14:38
BluesKajBBL14:39
afiestasenable HDMI1 and eDP1, then restart kded14:39
afiestasI'm going to need all kded output if possible, especially if lines like14:39
afiestas"Inhibing: " or "Inhibing: " appear14:40
afiestasonce restarted close the lid, in theory it should not suspend14:40
afiestasthen WITHOUT restarting kded, disable the laptop screen by executing14:40
afiestasxrandr --output eDP1 --off14:41
afiestasclose the lid again, and in theory it should NOT suspend14:41
amichairit does: say Inhibing, which sounds close enough to inhibiting :-)  http://pastebin.com/p8TFNCnT14:41
afiestasfinally, execute xrandr --output eDP1 --auto --output HDMI1 --off14:42
afiestaswait 1 second or 2, close the lid and it should suspend14:42
amichairso repeating the same excercise as before basically?14:42
afiestasI guess, but this time with the entire log so I can see why it is not stopping14:43
amichairafiestas: here's the whole annotated session: http://pastebin.com/CPbPTv7C14:49

afiestasamichair_: awesome ! 14:50
afiestascan you test a patch? 14:50
amichairafiestas: how hard/dangerous/reversible is it?14:51
afiestasit is not dangerous at all, 100% reversible I promess won't kill any kitty14:51
amichairok, let's give it  a shot14:52
afiestasamichair: give me 10 min to re-read the entire bug report to be sure that what I'm going to do fix it once for all14:55

afiestasRiddell:  apachelogger bambee_ etc ? :p15:06
amichairmagic would be nice, yes15:06
Riddellafiestas: what?15:06
afiestasanywya, going to commit the change, is a fix for sure 15:07
afiestasRiddell: package a kde-workspace package with a fix I just made so amichair chan test15:07
RiddellI don't have time today but it's easy enough for someone familiar with packaging15:07
debfxis there something kvkbd can do that the keyboard plasma widget can't?15:14
debfxotherwise we could unseed it15:15
RiddellI don't know, need someone familiar with accessibility to say15:15
Riddellyou could well be right15:15
debfxoh, the layout is very broken when added to a vertical panel :/15:17
Riddellof kvkbd?15:18
debfxno, the plasma widget15:19
afiestasdebfx: do you have time for packaging kde-workspace with an extra patch so amichair can do some testing ?15:20
debfxafiestas: not today15:22
amichairdo u guys have a nightly build? if so I can test it tomorrow 15:22

Adri2000is there any intent to update digikam to 2.5.0 and/or sync it with debian (experimental) before FF?16:45
RiddellAdri2000: yes that would be nice16:46
Adri2000(I'm asking because I'd like to get opencv updated, and the digikam 2.4.0 in ubuntu FTBFS with the new opencv, while the digikam 2.5.0 in debian doesn't :))16:47
Riddellgo for it16:48
Adri2000will talk with debfx first, because the number of ubuntu changes according to changelog scares me :p16:51
yofelit shouldn't be that much. It's just that we never got to merge it with debian since 2.0 came out so you can't really see what the actuall diff is16:58
shadeslayerRiddell: btw in that script, make sure you run neon-env first and then the script17:06
