kancermanbest past change to unity - freezing the launcher bar on the left - yeah, autohide is optional but, to me, that's gotten annoying, thanx to whosoever froze it in place ;)06:42
MCRLatest Unity version does not want to start here (Precise). I have to remove Unity completely to make my desktop boot. I am not using any Compiz/Unity PPAs anymore. Also my right mousebutton problem is back (right mousebutton kills Compiz). Can someone help me with that ?07:01
MCRAnother thing: When trying to compile Emerald from source under Precise it won't compile anymore. The errors are undefined references to exp, pow, dlclose, dlerror, dlopen, dlsym. Can someone help me with fixing this ?07:30
MCRIf someone knows if those references just got a name change I could maybe fix it myself... I want Emerald back !07:32
angelocopening dash remembers last searched word and shows only results relatives to this word, is this the expected behaviour?07:44
angeloci think that dash should clear the search bar, could be really a pain for new users find applications if dash shows always last used one07:45
didrocksSaviq: hey, the press to reveal or barriers don't work here (nvidia)07:50
didrocksSaviq: with the patched metacity and unity-2d07:50
angelocdidrocks: dash remembers last searched word and shows only results relatives to this word, is this the expected behaviour?07:50
didrocksangeloc: yeah, it is07:50
angelocdidrocks: i think that dash should clear the search bar, could be really a pain for new users find applications if dash shows always last used one07:50
didrocksangeloc: tallk to JohnLea about design discussions. There are quite a lot of reasons to wanting this behavior07:51
angelocdidrocks: ok07:51
Saviqdidrocks, did you get it from packages or built yourself?08:04
didrocksSaviq: built myself (both metacity and unity-2d)08:05
Saviqdidrocks, which xfixes?08:05
didrocksSaviq: the latest upload from RAOF specific for unity-2d, one sec08:06
didrocksSaviq: 1:5.0-4ubuntu408:07
didrocksSaviq: can't that be related to nvidia?08:07
Saviqdidrocks, not really, I've been testing on nvidia and worked fine, as long as I built with the correct xfixes08:07
didrocksyeah, should be the right xfixes for this one08:08
Saviqbut never had something "specific for unity-2d"08:08
Saviqjust the latest from staging ppa08:08
Saviqdidrocks, let me investigate08:08
didrocksSaviq: I'm using the distro ones, I know that you needed that version08:08
didrocksSaviq: thanks!08:08
Saviqdidrocks, no, we need 1:5.0-4ubuntu1"08:09
Saviqwait08:09
didrockshum08:09
Saviqdidrocks, ok let me check it out08:09
Saviqwill get back to you08:09
didrocksSaviq: thanks :)08:10
didrocksI asked RAOF to join the party08:10
didrocksSaviq: can be something I'm doing wrong as well, if I can check some part? (like strut?)08:10
Saviqdidrocks, hide-mode 0?08:13
Saviqerm08:13
Saviq1?08:13
Saviqand what's the symptom? can't get launcher to reveal?08:13
didrocksSaviq: yeah, I set it to 108:13
didrocksthe launcher hides08:13
didrocksbut then, I can't reveal it08:14
didrocksnor I have barriers between screens08:14
Saviqnot at all?08:14
didrocksnothing08:14
Saviqcan you make check?08:14
Saviqwe tests for barriers08:14
didrockssure08:14
Saviq+have08:14
didrocksSaviq: will it screw my environment?08:15
Saviqdidrocks, should not08:15
Saviqdidrocks, you can run just the barrier ones08:15
didrocksok, /me will keep vim opened on tarmac then :)08:15
Saviqbut the others would only open your dash at the most anyway08:15
didrockssome command line? ;)08:15
Saviqdidrocks, libunity-2d-private/tests/08:15
Saviqthere's a bunch of binaries08:15
didrocksSaviq: so, I should run the test in launcher, isn't it?08:20
didrocksSaviq: not sure I have the testability setup though08:20
didrocksany advice? (README doesn't help)08:20
didrocksTestability installation instructions08:20
didrockset's start with tht :)08:20
didrocksSaviq: I have some missing packages though: testability-qttas, ruby-testability-driver-qt-sut-plugin, testability-visualizer08:22
Saviqdidrocks, you don't need testability for that08:27
Saviqdidrocks, the barrier tests are unit tests08:27
Saviqjust run the binary from libunity-2d-private/tests08:27
Saviqor make check to run them all08:27
didrocksok :)08:28
didrocks100% tests passed, 0 tests failed out of 708:28
didrocks    Start 7: pointerbarriertest08:28
didrocks7/7 Test #7: pointerbarriertest ...............   Passed    6.06 sec08:28
Saviqso barriers seem to work08:28
Saviqin essence08:28
didrocksyeah, I just don't have them :/08:28
didrocksso hide_mode set to 108:29
didrockscan't reveal, no barrier in between08:29
Saviqyeah that's all that should be needed08:29
Saviqdidrocks, updating now (stoopid out of date mirror)08:29
Saviqdidrocks, and will check on both nvidia and intel08:29
didrocksSaviq: thanks :)08:30
didrocksisn't there any particular STRUT I should check?08:30
didrockson the root window08:30
didrocks_NET_WM_STRUT_PARTIAL, _NET_WM_STRUT08:30

didrocksSaviq: tsdgeos: greyback: multimonitor merged \o/10:36
greybackdidrocks: woo!10:36
MCRseb128: I used 2d, because I had intel driver troubles, but those are gone now...10:36
Saviqdidrocks, yup10:36
MCRseb128: unity --replace would always use the 3d version. no ?10:37
didrocksalso, it seems my committer change worked in production for tarmac :)10:38
seb128MCR, not sure10:39
seb128well maybe ping greyback about 2d not working10:39
seb128I've no clue about unity-2d10:39
MCRseb128: I just had fbdev as driver for a short period of time that's why I used 2d. I should use and want to use 3d.10:39
seb128try to select 3d back on the login screen then and see how it goes10:40
MCRok, I will also delete .xsession-errors so we get a fresh one...10:41
seb128good10:41
MCRseb128: Thx 4 being so patient.10:41
seb128yw ;-)10:41
sil2100geh, have to add auto-join for freenode ;)10:43
MCRHow can I log out without having Unity nor another DE running ?10:43
MCRexit will just close the terminal (guake) and logout does not work (bash: logout: not login shell: use 'exit'10:45
MCRhmm10:45
MCRnevermind, I will simply reboot - the standard DE is Unity-3d here, so it should try to log in there10:46
MCROr is there a way to choose the DE to log in at startup ?10:47
MCRlike holding ALT during boot or something like that ?10:47
MCRseb128: Any idea ^^ ?10:48
seb128MCR, do you use autologin? edit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf to turn it off and reboot?10:49
MCRseb128: ah, yeah - sure - thx10:50
seb128yw10:50
* popey welcomes sil2100 10:50

sil2100:)10:53
MCRseb128: fresh .xsession-errors file: http://pastebin.com/t5pjwyCr11:05
didrocksgreyback: so, it's working fine11:05
didrockshowever, just a note11:05
didrockson nvidia, I can have no "primary monitor" set11:05
didrocksin this case, what unity-3d used to do was to put the launcher on the leftmost monitor11:05
didrockswhich is what makes sense IMHO11:05
didrocksin this case, I put on the right one (I guess it's seen as the first monitor as it's the laptop one)11:06
didrocksit*11:06
seb128MCR, can you try using one of the Ubuntu themes and see if that makes a difference and also move .config/autostart away (keep it for debugging)11:06
greybackdidrocks: hmm ok11:06
didrockson the left, I have: an external monitor, on the right: my laptop monitor11:06
didrocksgreyback: if I define a primary monitor on nvidia-settings, all is fine11:06
didrocksgreyback: that's not blocking the release, but you maybe want a bug about it?11:06
greybackdidrocks: I will11:06
MCRseb128: I do whatever is to do to get Unity back ;)11:06
didrocksthanks greyback ;)11:06
didrocksdo not hesitate to ping me if you need more testing/info11:07
didrockssil2100: hey11:07
didrockssil2100: can you just take lp:unity-2d again11:07
greybackdidrocks: thanking you11:07
didrockssil2100: build it and test it?11:07
seb128MCR, can you try those, maybe one and after the other, to figure if any fixes the issue?11:07
sil2100didrocks: ACK11:07
didrocksgreyback: just waiting for sil2100's feedback and if all is green, I'm pushing :)11:07
didrocksgreyback: nice work!11:07
sil2100didrocks: should I test something in particular?11:08
didrocksgreyback: (please target the bug above for 5.8 to not loose it)11:08
greybackdidrocks: thanks to Saviq & tsdgeos11:08
didrockssil2100: you have an ATI? isn't it?11:08
sil2100didrocks: yes, fglrx driver11:08
didrocksyeah, thanks to Saviq and tsdgeos, spendid work :)11:08
didrockssil2100: and more than one monitor?11:08
MCRseb128: okay - so first I will change the theme.11:08
sil2100Yes11:08
didrockssil2100: ok, so first, install the new version11:08
didrockssee that you can still reveal the launcher11:09
didrocksthen, on g-c-c, change the primary monitor11:09
Saviqdidrocks, tsdgeos, greyback: good stuff!11:09
seb128MCR, rm the .xsession-errors as well between reboots11:09
didrocksto the one on the right11:09
MCRseb128: ok11:09
didrocksand ensure that you have some barrier between the two11:09
sil2100ACK11:09
didrocksthanks sil2100 :)11:09
sil2100np ;)11:11
MCRseb128: What is the original theme called: Ambience ?11:11
seb128MCR, Ambiance11:11
MCRseb128: ok, thx11:11
seb128yw11:11
MCRtheme is changed11:11
MCR.xsession-errors removed11:12
MCRinstalling Unity (once again ;))11:12
MCRreboot11:12
sil2100Ok, switching sessions11:20
sil2100didrocks: is a metacity rebuild required as well?11:22
sil2100Or just the trunk from unity-2d is sufficient?11:22
didrockssil2100: the metacity I pointed to you yeah11:23
didrocksSaviq: ah, I got the launcher stucked11:23
didrocksgreyback: ^11:23
sil2100didrocks: since ok, launcher revealing still works fine, but hm, I can't seem to have the barrier between screens11:23
Saviqdidrocks, yes, two issues we have to address11:23
didrockssil2100: the barrier only appear if the launcher is on the right screen11:23
didrocksSaviq: you should use the unity hidemachine btw ;)11:24
sil2100didrocks: ah, ok, then one moment ;)11:24
didrocksSaviq: at least you would have a state machine, which is reliable11:24
Saviqdidrocks, 1) spread-induced 2) !mouse-over the launcher when it's still animating11:24
didrocks(with all the corner cases done)11:24
sil2100didrocks: how can I force the launcher being on a different screen?11:24
Saviqdidrocks, I think we have the hide modes working fine, just two bugs there11:24
sil2100Killing places and starting them on a given screen?11:25
didrockssil2100: see what I told above, change the primary monitor11:25
Saviqdidrocks, known, and to be addressed (there in trunk, too)11:25
didrocksSaviq: ok :)11:25
didrocksSaviq: but you don't handle some corner cases still11:25
didrocksSaviq: like, click on a launcher item11:25
didrocksdon't move11:25
didrocksthe launcher hides11:25
didrocksand click on a launcher item11:25
didrocksmove11:25
didrocksthe launcher should stay11:25
greybackyep, lots lf small launcher interactions are wrong11:25
didrocksalso put the mouse under the launcher area11:26
sil2100Ah, ACK ;)11:26
didrockssuper11:26
didrocksthe launcher shows11:26
didrocksrelease11:26
didrocksthe launcher should hide11:26
didrocksand super, launcher shows, move the mouse, release, launcher should not hide11:26
didrocksall of this is handled by what we have done as a state machine in -3d11:26
didrocksI think having a similar thing can works well for 2d (there is even a Qt state handler that sounds promising :))11:27
greybackwould be great. much of that logic is determined by various qml rules, which isn't that elegant11:27
sil2100didrocks: hm, where exactly can I switch that? *is a bit confused*11:28
didrocksgreyback: yeah, we started with something similar in 3d11:28
didrocksgreyback: and then, got more and more hit by this kinds of bug11:29
didrocksgreyback: maybe not something for P, but for Q11:29
greybacksil2100: you set primary monitor in the Displaysa applet, drag the black panel depicted to the monitor you want to be primary11:29
didrocksthe state machine is awesome to avoid this :)11:29
sil2100WOW11:29
* sil2100 didn't know that he could drag that black panel11:29
=== greyback is now known as greyback|lunch
MCRseb128: back - with bad news:11:33
MCRseb128: changing gtk+ theme did not help11:33
seb128it should have reduced the .xsession-errors spamming with pixel errors though11:34
MCRseb128: renaming the whole autostart folder did not help (although I found quite a lot of deprecated symlinks there (moved from old system))11:34
MCRseb128: yes.11:34
* sil2100 sighs11:34
seb128ok :-( I was hoping the autostart stuff would have to do with it11:34
sil2100Even though I dragged the black panel, the launcher still appears on my big screen11:34
didrockssil2100: what does xrandr tells you?11:35
didrockswhich one is your primary monitor?11:35
seb128MCR, btw who do you "reinstall unity"? you should be able to install i.e gnome-session-fallback and gnome-panel and log into a gnome classic session11:36
MCRseb128: If you mean how: sudo apt-get install unity / sudo apt-get remove unity11:37
seb128MCR, no, I mean "why"11:37
seb128you should be able to pick a gnome classic session on lightdm11:37
seb128MCR, can you pastebin your current .xsession-errors?11:37
MCRseb128: AFAIK all other DEs work here - just Unity (the one I want to use) does not. :(11:37
seb128MCR, does it work in a guest session?11:38
MCRseb128: did not try that - I will first post the actual .xsession-errors file.11:38
sil2100didrocks: the laptop screen is listed first, so it seems to be the primary one11:39
sil2100Which is good, since I wanted it to be like that11:39
sil2100But the launcher still appears on the monitor11:39
didrocksso, maybe you need tsdgeos, Saviq to look at this ^11:39
didrockssil2100: I guess you logout/login after the change?11:39
Saviqsil2100, where is it "listed first"?11:39
sil2100didrocks: I did, but maybe a reboot I should try?11:39
sil2100Saviq: in xrandr11:40
Saviqsil2100, why aren't you using g-c-c?11:40
didrocksshouldn't, apart from nvidia, changing the primary monitor is instant IIRC11:40
sil2100Saviq: I set it with g-c-c11:40
sil2100And g-c-c also says the laptop is the primary one11:40
sil2100But the launcher still appears on my monitor11:40
Saviqsil2100, can you try changing the geometry? move monitors a bit or change their resolutions?11:41
sil2100Saviq: changing positions and geometry works, but still launcher is on the same place11:42
sil2100I even tried killing and restarting unity-2d-shell11:42
Saviqsil2100, log out and back in, please11:42
Saviqsil2100, I did get something similar when my display setup got condused11:42
Saviq*confused11:43
Saviqsil2100, the "listed first" in xrandr doesn't really say anything, afaik11:43

MCRseb128: Now I also changed the window theme to ambience also.11:44
MCRseb128: because the win theme was also causing errors11:44
seb128does it make any difference?11:44
MCRseb128: Not tried yet11:44
seb128MCR, you should try a guest session to see if that works11:45
MCRseb128: How can I start a guest session ?11:45
MCRhehe11:45
seb128MCR, pick "guest session" on the lightdm login scren11:45
seb128screen11:45
MCRI have to remove autologin first, moment11:47
sil2100Still the same, sadly11:49
MCRseb128: Is changing autologin-guest to true in lightdm.conf enough ?11:49
sil2100g-c-c says laptop is primary, but launcher prefers the monitor11:49
seb128MCR, ?11:49
seb128MCR, no, just don't autologin, you will get the lightdm screen on boot and you can choose an user and session from there11:50
sil2100Maybe I need to change something in amdccle?11:50
MCRseb128: http://pastebin.com/n2YtUtvd11:50
seb128MCR, just delete all the autologin- lines11:51

Saviqtsdgeos, QDesktopWidget::primaryScreen()? wtf?11:59
tsdgeoswops12:00
tsdgeoshow did we miss that?12:00
Saviqtsdgeos, I was sure 0 is the primary screen12:00
tsdgeosseems its not :D12:01
didrocksSaviq: ah no, I confirm it's not in any case :)12:01
didrocksSaviq: normally, the number remains the same once a monitor is "tagged"12:01
tsdgeosdidrocks: well, 0 in Qt terminology12:01
tsdgeoswhich always goes from 0 to N12:01

MCRseb128: Now I've installed ubuntu-2d and this at least worx, so thanx again 4 your time - at least I learned some stuff about lightdm & co ;)12:20
seb128MCR, yw, your way to uninstall and reinstall unity is really inefficient ;-)12:22
seb128usually you can just log out and in12:22
MCRseb128: Still do not know how to logout without DE...12:23
seb128MCR, ctrl-alt-del should work12:23
seb128it should open the gnome-session logout dialog12:23
MCRseb128: yes it does :)12:23
seb128or power button maybe, that should also display a dialog12:23
Klap-ini try to debug something in the compiz wall-plugin. so i add some printf(), this out put to 'stdout' now it appears in .xsession-errors. but not directly It seems needed that happens something before it appears. Do i observer the correct log?12:37
Klap-in*observe12:38
greybackMCR: you may be able to log-out by hitting Ctrl+Alt+T to bring up a terminal, and then enter "gnome-session-quit"12:40
greybackKlap-in: you should see if if you run compiz from a shell with "compiz --replace"12:42
Klap-ingreyback: thnx12:51

cr3is there a proper place to run commands when a xsession is started, that I used to have in my ~/.xsession file: setxkbmap -layout us,ca -option grp:alt_shift_toggle13:58
didrocksgreyback: I'm seeing some regressoins with hide-mode = 0 as well13:58
Zhenechcr3, ~/.xinitrc?13:58
didrockstaking a picture13:58
greybackdidrocks: please do13:59
seb128cr3, why not just configuring your keyboard with those layout in the system settings dialog?14:00
hallynhi - super-up isn't working for me, and the dash overlay still says alt-f10 is fullscreen (but that doesn't work any more)14:00
cr3seb128: because I'm a curmudgeon, but I'll give that a try14:01
didrocksgreyback: http://people.canonical.com/~didrocks/unity-2d-multimonitor.png14:02
didrocksgreyback: multiples thingss here14:02
didrocksgreyback: the primary monitor is the left one14:03
didrocksgreyback: the STRUT works for windows here (if I maximize them, they go alongside the panel)14:03
didrocksgreyback: however, nautilus icons are not moved (as they are when you set your STRUT)14:03
didrocksgreyback: though, the second monitor has a STRUT set as well, see the maximized terminal leaving a space for the launcher14:03
greybackdidrocks: yeah I see that14:04
greybackdidrocks: yes both are problems, leave them with me14:05
* didrocks hands off :-)14:05
greybackI can't reproduce your useless strut-on-second-monitor tho14:05
didrockswondering if it's not related to nvidia?14:05
greybackno actually I just have14:05
hallyni need to get a second monitor so i can be cool14:06
didrocksah :)14:06
cr3didrocks: regarding multimonitor, either 2d or 3d, is there something planned so that when you full screen an application on one monitor, the file/edit/etc. menus don't appear on the first monitor?14:20
cr3I haven't tried multimonitor in a long time, but it's one of the pain points I often hear when talking with people in the community14:20
didrockscr3: yeah, the appmenu shouldn't appear on the other monitor14:24
didrockscr3: it's a logged bug14:24
cr3didrocks: does it planned to be fixed in precise?14:25
didrockscr3: well, it's on the priority list, not high on it though as it's minor compared to other issues we have14:25
cr3didrocks: I understand, I'll keep my fingers crossed then14:26
mhall119didrocks: I created 2 FF3 bugs for updates to unity-singlet and quickly-unity-lens-template, is there something you can do to promote them?14:26
didrockscr3: better to do :)14:26
mhall119s/FF3/FFe/14:26
didrocksmhall119: please ping the release team members14:26
cr3didrocks: yeah, but I also have "other issues" :)14:26
didrocksmhall119: it's the fatest way to get them accepted :)14:26
Klap-ini have a fix for the compiz wallplugin. What is the preferred way to supply this and to get it accepted in 12.04(if possible..)?15:31
JackyAlcineKlap-in: I'm guessing that a reporting a bug to the compiz package related to Unity and then providing a diff there would be useful.15:51
Klap-inJackyAlcine: ok. it's now reported to compiz, and the its wallplugin. So it's helpfull to add unity too?16:17
JackyAlcineYup, since it's Unity-specific.16:19
JackyAlcineThese are suggestions, though.16:19
JackyAlcineReport back to this channel occasionally to mention the bug and try poking it at the mailing list.16:20
kenvandineTrevinho, ping17:51
Trevinhokenvandine: pong17:51
Trevinhohi17:51
kenvandineTrevinho, what do you know about time stuff in vala?17:52
kenvandinelike converting gmt and handing DST17:52
* kenvandine found a patch from Trevinho doing a google search :)17:52
TrevinhoMhmh... Which one? I don't recall thatt...17:53
kenvandineit wasn't specifically that, but it changed some code that did some timestamp stuff17:53
kenvandineit was for freesmartphone or something17:53
kenvandineanyway...17:54
kenvandineTime.gm (time_t ()) gets the right utc time17:54
kenvandinebut17:54
kenvandineTime.gm (time_t ()).mktime () gets a timestamp that is off by 1 hour17:54
kenvandineonly when on DST17:54
* kenvandine was just hoping you had any idea how to hack around that17:54
TrevinhoMh I don't think it was actuyally my code... Maybe I only stored on my git...17:55
kenvandineperhaps :)17:56
TrevinhoAnyway... I'm not too much into that now, sorry :/17:56
kenvandineTrevinho, ok... so you don't know?17:56
kenvandineok, no problem17:56

rasmushaglundhi, I'm about to try to add a few features to unity and have started to get familliar with the code. But I've got stuck trying to find how the menu triggered by right clicking a window is created.20:48
rasmushaglundCould anyone point me in the right direction?20:48
rasmushaglundI've found the code for creating menus, but not where it actually instanciates that menu.20:49
rasmushaglundMy goal is to add that menu so that it works even when maximized20:50
rasmushaglundright clicking the title menu bar that is20:51
JackyAlcineSahweet. :)20:57
thumperrasmushaglund: what is your plan exactly?21:08
=== JackyAlcine is now known as jalcine
rasmushaglundthumper: my plan is to grasp the general structu421:19
rasmushaglundops21:19
rasmushaglundmy plan is to grasp tHe general structure, so that I can find where I should start21:20
rasmushaglundand I figured that I start with a feature that sounds simple enough for me to implement21:21
rasmushaglundso when a window is floating you can right click the window panel and choose, for example, "move to desktop x". But when the window is maximized, and the window panel is part of the top unity panel you cannot right click to invoke the menu.21:23
