jasoncwarner_hey RAOF I just finished updating my other nvidia system to precise and I get the bad screen scramble on that one as well.00:28
jasoncwarner_wondering if it is every nvdia system?00:28
jasoncwarner_bryceh: ^^00:28
RAOFQuite possibly.00:29
jasoncwarner_can we check with tseliot to see if nvidia has a fix coming?00:29
brycehjasoncwarner_, certainly; I'll send him a note00:30
jasoncwarner_bryceh RAOF in the meantime, anything we can do? (I think, RAOF, you were going to look into it? )00:30
RAOFYeah.00:31
brycehjasoncwarner_, btw, on some systems I did fresh reinstalls a few weeks ago, I notice banshee is still the default music player; are we still going to switch to rhythmbox?  (or did I miss it?)00:31
RAOFGoing code diving.00:31
jasoncwarner_bryceh: yes we are, I'll check with seb128 and pitti on that ^^00:31
jasoncwarner_thanks, bryceh  :)00:32
brycehjasoncwarner_, sorry, got called away to bake cookies for santa00:54
brycehjasoncwarner_, anyway, I've been running rhythmbox for a bit, and have had a few crashes.  It may need a bit of stabilization work00:55
bryceh(which I guess is a bit ironic...)00:56
jasoncwarner_bryceh: yeah..I've been digging in there myself lately...are your crashes bugs in LP?00:58
RAOFOh, my.  That's rather inconvenient!01:14
RAOFIt's possible to push a window outside the area accessible by the pointer.01:15
jasoncwarner_RAOF: and you can't get it back? that seems like a bad bug :/ have you filed that? we can add that to didrocks list of 'gotta fix' bugs ;)01:17
RAOFActually, it seems like I can get it back.01:18
RAOFI wonder if I can make it go *all* the way out...01:18
InTroubleanyone know how to get more details on this? http://i.imgur.com/hgAo4.png01:19
RAOFHm.  I can't seem to get it to do that again.01:19
RAOFBah!01:19
=== InTrouble is now known as Pikkachu
Pikkachusomeone? :'-(01:28
brycehjasoncwarner_, apport doesn't seem to be catching the rb bugs I've hit, however I do see there's several dozen segfault bugs in LP for precise01:58
TheMusoI am officially sick of the HUD getting in my way already. I should have to hold my alt key down for longer so I don't trigger the HUD popping up. Tne vast majority of commands I perform on the keyboard outside of orca depend on a quick tap of alt...01:58
brycehjasoncwarner_, but since we're definitely moving, I'll put some more effort into chasing down the bugs I've seen01:58

TheMusoYeah, just ranting, I am sure the trigger will be refined somewhat.02:00
brycehjasoncwarner_, hmm poking around a bit, I see reports of corruption after login until unity reported against lightdm, unity-greeter, and several X packages.  Half the reporters have nvidia, the others are a mix of fglrx, radeon, and intel02:14
brycehjasoncwarner_, so... thinking maybe this is not an nvidia bug, but a regression somewhere else in our stack02:14

brycehpossibly those are all dupes with the same root cause02:15
bryceh(and there's probably more dupes, this was just a quick scan)02:15
brycehjasoncwarner_, I'll hold off on notifying tseliot until we're more certain.  I'm off tomorrow (monday) for president's day but will explore further tuesday if someone hasn't already fixed it02:16
brycehfwiw, I'm not reproducing it on -intel02:27
RAOFbryceh, jasoncwarner_: There are a couple of ways you can get corruption on login; one is on modeset, after the display is up but before something has been drawn to the new framebuffer (what I'm looking into), and the other is initialising the composite overlay window, which happens during compiz startup.02:27
RAOFThe latter problem has a general solution which smspilla1 has worked on, but I don't believe has implemented.02:28

superm1hey folks.  this multimonitor stuff where my mouse gets stuck between monitors with precise unity - is there going to be a way to turn down the sensitivity?  I move between monitors all the time, and very rarely need to stop at the unity bar in the middle.04:21
RAOFsuperm1: Go to appearance.04:23
RAOFThere's already a slider.04:23
RAOFsuperm1: Also, please pull barrier-test from ppa:raof/help-jason, run it, and pastebin the output :)04:24
RAOFAfter running your pointer against the barrier at varying speeds :)04:24
superm1RAOF: the slider only seemed to effect how quickly the launcher in the middle came up, but the mouse still gets stuck between at both extremes of that sensitivity slider.  it's worst when i'm in a high memory usage and the computer starts swapping while it tries to show that launcher from the middle.  will fetch this barrier test thing from your ppa though and run it04:31
RAOFsuperm1: Ah, ok.  There are two knobs that it's possible to twiddle; I didn't know which knob that slider twiddled.04:32
RAOFYou'll want to run it as “barrier-test 200 20000” or something - that'll make a vertical barrier at x=200 that's nearly impenetrable, and then spit out information about what's happening when you hit that barrier.04:33
superm1RAOF: http://paste.ubuntu.com/849532/04:37
RAOFsuperm1: Huh.  What's your input device?04:38
superm1USB mouse, logitech mx51004:38
RAOFAh.  Which would be why we don't have either resolution or range information.04:39
RAOFOh, no.  You're not running the right X server :)04:40
superm1the "right" X server?04:40
RAOFThere's a newer xserver in that PPA.04:40
superm1oh.  ok i'll fetch that and restart lightdm.04:41
RAOFIt sends some extra information on the barrier events, which is why a bunch of those numbers are 0s, and it then dies with a segfault ;)04:41
RAOFTa.04:41
SarvattRAOF: whats this i hear about newer barrier patches?04:45
RAOFSarvatt: Trying to work out what particular property is the right one to gate on.04:45
RAOFSarvatt: You can find them in ppa:raof/help-jason; sending some raw motion stuff.04:46
Sarvattwalruses galoshers and fancying indeed!04:49
=== fenris is now known as Guest47832
Sarvatthere i am refreshing your old crap to work with xserver master like an idiot when you're changing it all :)04:50
RAOF:)04:51
RAOFOnce we've got a better idea of what particular bit of input state we should be thresholding on I'll do a proper patch series refresh; it's also a protocol change.04:51
Sarvattthere have been a lot of complaints about the barrier implementation with multimonitor now04:55
RAOFYeah.  We do need better threshold data.  I rather like the autohiding launchers, though; I'd like to improve it so that it works well, rather than dump it.04:56
SarvattRAOF: just to be sure, you arent planning on bumping the major/min xfixes version right?04:59
Sarvatti mean we can ensure things go right in the ubuntu archive and 6.0 was never upstream05:00
RAOFI'm still hoping to upstream this sensibly (once we've discovered exactly how it should work).05:01
RAOFFailing that, I'll need to rework it into a locally-bit.05:01
superm1RAOF: http://paste.ubuntu.com/849556/05:10
superm1i tried a variety of speeds to hit the invisible barrier at.  is that about what you're looking for ?05:10
RAOFsuperm1: Thanks, yes.05:17
RAOFsuperm1: Oh!  You get resolution data off that mouse!05:17
superm1is that a good thing?05:17
RAOFWell, it's a bit unexpected.05:18
RAOFWhat is the first couple of lines of “xinput test-xi2 9”'s output?05:19
RAOFMy USB mouse says it's got a resolution of 1/m, which is nonsense.  Yours would appear to be giving an actual reasonable resolution value.05:20
RAOF(You'll want to quit the window that pops up pretty quickly; it'll be spewing raw events to the terminal and they're not interesting at the moment ☺)05:21
superm1RAOF: http://paste.ubuntu.com/849564/05:22
RAOFOh, no.  No resolution information, just me misreading my tool's output :)05:22
superm1i seem to recall way back when this mouse was supposed to be able to have a high resolution that it could resolve compared to other mice on the market though05:23
superm1and had some sort of on the fly DPI changing or something05:24
RAOFYeah, mice can differ in resolution.05:24
RAOFOne would hope that'd result in seeing more events rather than seeing the same number of events/unit time but with a greater distance.05:25
superm1yeah that would sound sensible05:26
superm1so in the interim until you guys have this barrier stuff figured out to not be annoying, i'm guessing this 'edge stop velocity' is the thing i'll want to tweak in ccsm to not let it get in my way05:26
RAOFYes.05:27
RAOFLooking at the code, that's the one you're after.05:27
superm1great, thanks!05:28
RAOFI presume the other one is edge_responsiveness?05:28
superm1yeah i think so, just need to be careful with some of these.  it seems if i turn velocity down too much, i can't even get my left most launcher to come up05:30
superm1maybe a happy medium for this problem would be when the launcher isn't set to auto-hide don't do any of this business stopping in the middle.  only when it's on autohide does it really make sense to let it stop there to catch the middle launcher05:31
RAOFYeah.05:31
RAOFAlthough the barrier is still a *bit* useful in that it makes it easier to hit the launcher.05:32
superm1i guess it depends on how much you find yourself using that middle launcher.  i've been using unity from oneiric for long enough that i've developed habits to always go the left of both of my screens for apps that I need to unbreak to see05:34
=== Guest47832 is now known as ejat
smspilla1RAOF: not implemented because it would break all the other window managers ;-)06:05
=== smspilla1 is now known as smspillaz
RAOFsmspillaz: Pfft!06:06
smspillazit was a nice idea though. Made doing compiz restarts far less of an eyesort06:06
smspillaz*eyesore06:06
smspillazRAOF: also comes with the added benefit of not having gnome-terminal destroy and recreate its window all the time06:06
RAOFIt does that?  Why?06:07
smspillazyou don't want to know why06:07
smspillazRAOF: have you ever noticed that when you restart compiz, all of your gnome-terminal windows fly to the top right hand corner of the screen and every other window stays in the correct position ?06:08
RAOFActually, yes.06:08
RAOFNow that you mention it!06:08
smspillazso that's gnome-terminal going06:08
smspillaz"oh hey I'm not composited"06:08
smspillaz"damn my visual info changed"06:08
smspillaz"oh well, looks like I'll have to destroy my window"06:08
smspillaz"hey I'm back!"06:08
smspillaz"what, I'm composited again?"06:08
smspillaz"oh fun, let me go destroy my window and re-create it for you"06:09
smspillazRAOF: you don't know how awesome it is06:09
smspillazto be able to restart compiz and06:09
smspillaznot have all of your terminals go to 0,006:10
smspillazand I had to rewrite part of the compositing engine to do that06:10
smspillaztrue story!06:10
smspillaz(incidentally, that was a side effect)06:10

Sweetsharkdidrocks, seb128: the package was build just fine in a local pbuilder, if that was the question (2h10min for the binary package in case anyone is wondering)09:53
ryekernel is building faster than an office package...09:54
micahgIIRC they're both about 15M lines of code :P09:54
Sweetsharkmicahg: yes, but the kernel is in a parsable language and not in C++ ...09:55
Sweetsharkalso the 2h10min is cheating as it is with ccache, otherwise it would be much longer. but quite a lot of time is spend on building l10n (which isnt helped by ccache) and packing (like the 490MB debug package -- after xz compression)09:58
didrocksin a minute, my mobile phone provider should switch :)09:59

cr3seb128: thanks, when I requested this originally, he said you might be a good person to talk to as well :)15:25
pgranerSarvatt, added the output that you wanted with that wacom tablet bug, let me know if you need anything else15:26
pgranerSarvatt, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/93444515:26

seb128cr3, is there any depends to it which is not on the CD yet? like bindings or something?15:27
seb128mdeslaur, hey15:32
seb128mdeslaur, do you know about apparmor profiles? ;-)15:32
mdeslaurseb128: that depends ;)15:33
mdeslaurseb128: what's up?15:33
seb128mdeslaur, I wanted to add nautilus-sendto to the evince one15:33
seb128but I'm not sure how I'm supposed to do it, I figured I would copy what is done for other binaries allow but..15:34
seb128  /usr/bin/nautilus Cx -> sanitized_helper,15:34
seb128  /usr/bin/gedit ixr,15:34
seb128  /usr/bin/bug-buddy px,15:34
seb128 15:34
seb128seems there is different "styles" of allowing a binary to be run :p15:34
seb128do you know which one should be used for i.e nautilus-sendto? ;-)15:35
mdeslaurseb128: can it wait until tomorrow? jdstrand will know which abstraction is the best one to add that15:35
seb128mdeslaur, sure15:35
mdeslaurseb128: I could guess, but he may want to get it put in somewhere else, since it can be used by more than just evince15:35
seb128ok, no hurry, I will ping him tomorrow15:35
mdeslaurseb128: ok, thanks15:36
mdeslaurseb128: he'll probably want to put it in /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/ubuntu-email15:37
seb128mdeslaur, that would make sense15:37
cr3seb128: sory for the lag, there shouldn't be any depends which are not on the CD yet. you're probably thinking python-qt, from the name checkbox-qt, but the interface is actually written in C++ so it only depends on libqt15:41
seb128cr3, ok good, I think it should be fine to switch then15:41
seb128cr3, and yes, I was wondering about that, ubuntuone is trying to get python-qt on the CD but they are hitting a space limit issue15:41
cr3seb128: I'll consult with my crew to see how we should handle the upgrade from Oneiric to Precise, ie whether they want people to keep checkbox-gtk or have the package upgrade to checkbox-qt15:42
seb128cr3, thanks15:42
cr3seb128: indeed, we suspect it wouldn't be possible so we chose C++ rather than take the risk15:42
seb128cr3, do you plan to keep both version or is the gtk one deprecated?15:42
cr3seb128: both versions will remain in the archive for the foreseeable future15:43
seb128didrocks, ^ btw you are probably the one here who knows best about checkbox, if you have an opinion about the topic, just checking with you ;-)15:43
* didrocks backlogs15:43
cr3seb128: so checkbox-gtk won't be deprecated, otherwise the upgrade behavior would've been obvious :)15:43
didrockswell, for unity-checkbox, we will still go with the current checkbox-gtk one as our patches aren't merged upstream and not rewritten for the Qt binding for the cycle15:45
didrocksso I have no strong opinion, last time I tried trunk, the ui was really rough, but I think it changed :)15:46
czajkowskididrocks: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/937031  it's ben crashing mostof today, finally got to report the crash15:56

seb128czajkowski, can you make the bug public?15:57
cr3didrocks: checkbox-gtk will still be around, so this shouldn't affect unity-checkbox15:57
czajkowskiseb128: can do15:57
cr3didrocks: as for the rough interface, it'll get better :)15:57

seb128czajkowski, don't worry, the retracer should dup it15:59
czajkowskiseb128: thanks15:59
cr3didrocks: we might need an exception at some point then, but most of the moving parts are there so I don't suspect anything major. for example, I don't think strings will change.16:02

seb128bryceh, it seems to hit quite some users18:01
seb128jbicha, is that work in progress? I guess they care about system settings and will fix it...?18:02
brycehseb128, first I've heard of it, but probably due to recent mesa 8.0 update or something.18:02
brycehseb128, I'll forward it upstream when I'm back at work tomorrow.18:02
seb128bryceh, oh right, U.S holiday, enjoy ;-)18:02
brycehunity-2d would be the obvious workaround  here18:03
brycehseb128, meanwhile, would be nice to have steps to repro18:03

czajkowskiseems to make  it have a hissy fit18:06

czajkowskibryceh: also happens when in the middle of an update and alt tabbing brings the one conf  error upa tthe same time18:07

jbichaseb128: the system settings theme change hurts Ubuntu more, before: http://imagebin.org/199839 after: http://imagebin.org/19984018:10
jbichaon the other hand, I also see that it breaks gnome-terminal's "Use colors from system theme", the terminal is black text on black background :(18:10
brycehhmm, although  the mesa code where this is failing hasn't changed in years; it could be something higher up in mesa or even compiz that is the real trigger.  interesting.18:10
seb128jbicha, well I guess we will not to fix it18:10

seb128jbicha, it shouldn't show the embedded menu18:27
seb128oh18:28
seb128jbicha, we don't have 3.318:28
seb128jbicha, that's because of gnome-settings-daemon, I patched it to not disable in app menus xsettings since we have g-s 3.218:28
seb128jbicha, basically you need to rewrite90_set_gmenus_xsettings.patch18:28

cr3seb128: a bug against the ubuntu project? shall I subscribe both you and pitti?19:38
seb128cr3, open it against checkbox (ubuntu) and subscribe ubuntu-release19:39

micahgI fixed that last week :)19:41
seb128micahg, but I don't care much either way, do you want to do an upload?19:41
micahgyeah, I have access, so that's not an issue19:41
micahgwas just wondering if it was still useful to have19:41
seb128we don't actively maintain it so I'm fine dropping the vcs19:41
seb128not so much no19:41
micahgok, thanks19:42
seb128micahg, do you plan an upload? still asking because there is a new version in Debian and I've a patch I want to add as well19:43
micahgah, yes, I wanted to merge the version from Debian (after getting an FFe)19:43
micahgbut feel free to do it if you like19:43
seb128micahg, ok great, I will just push my patch to the vcs19:43
micahgwhich VCS?19:43
seb128good point19:43
micahgit's still on the xubuntu image, so that's why I have an interest in it19:44

desrti didn't see that21:33
seb128desrt, which is my fault21:33
desrtyes.  i was going to say that.21:34
desrtwell21:34
desrtit's not strictly your fault for as long as the old shell version is in the distro21:34
desrtbut i guess you will see a new one before the release21:34
seb128desrt, I distro patched the xsettings patch to not disable the menus because we still have,had the old gnome-shell21:34
seb128right21:34
seb128desrt, did you ever get to do that patch cleaning? you said at the rally you were going to do it for me ;-)21:34
desrti told you i wouldn't do it this cycle because it was unnecessary churn21:35

RAOFI've fired up an nvidia system, and that's not happy.23:40
RAOFBut intel is peachy.23:40
robert_ancellRAOF, with just greeter or in general?23:41
RAOFA little bit in general, but with the greeter in particular.23:41
RAOF(It probably needs repaving; I messed around with the nvidia blob a little bit too cavalierly)23:41
robert_ancellRAOF, I've only limited hardware here but everything is good for me, do you think it's greeter/driver/X issues?23:41
RAOFI did notice that the cairo XLib surface doesn't seem to be using a RetainPermanent X connection, so if cairo is internally creating some necessary intermediaries it might explain the problem.23:43
