| bernie | has anyone ever reported a bug that makes the display remain black with only the mouse cursor moving? | 02:39 |
|---|---|---|
| bernie | i'm experiencing it on a desktop with nvidia and a laptop with intel gfx, so it's probably not a driver issue | 02:40 |
| bernie | it happens after switching on the screen on the desktop and after resume on the laptop, when one normally would see the gnome-screensaver-dialog | 02:41 |
| bernie | the unity process has crashed, compiz is still running | 02:41 |
| thumper | hmm... | 02:43 |
| thumper | trust me on this, but if unity crashed, compiz wouldn't be running | 02:43 |
| thumper | bernie: how often do you get it? | 02:43 |
| bernie | well but i don't see "/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/unity" on the machine with the black screen | 02:44 |
| bernie | it's present on the machine where i'm typing (oh, but i started it manually from the console because it had previously crashed here too) | 02:44 |
| bernie | thumper: i'd say about once every 2-3 days | 02:45 |
| thumper | bernie: perhaps a better indicator would be, what ration of success to bug do you have when coming back to the computer | 02:46 |
| thumper | is to 1 time in 10, | 02:46 |
| thumper | 1 in 5 | 02:46 |
| thumper | ? | 02:46 |
| thumper | bug to good (in those cases :) | 02:46 |
| bernie | thumper: maybe 1 in 10... it seems to happen on display hot plug or hot remove | 02:47 |
| bernie | thumper: i filed this bug earlier today: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1008808 | 02:47 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1008808 in Compiz "Compiz hangs with a black screen" [Undecided,New] | 02:47 |
| thumper | bernie: yeah, I thought I saw the bug fly past | 02:47 |
| bernie | thumper: but now i have a live machine which we could use to debug the problem in real time | 02:47 |
| bernie | thumper: since it's not reproducible at will... | 02:48 |
| bernie | thumper: ok, compiz isn't stuck somewhere... if i strace it i see it talking with X | 02:48 |
| bernie | thumper: also, the mouse cursor changes shape near the middle of the screen, probably where the password prompt should be | 02:49 |
| duflu | Hi bernie, regarding your black screen problem, could you please tell me what graphics driver you're using? | 02:53 |
| bernie | duflu: xserver-xorg-video-intel_2:2.17.0-1ubuntu4 | 02:53 |
| bernie | duflu: but it also happened today on my desktop which has the proprietary nvidia driver | 02:54 |
| duflu | bernie: OK, thanks. Unfortunately that means it's a bug I'm not yet aware of so don' | 02:56 |
| duflu | t have a quick fix | 02:56 |
| duflu | Further discussion will be in the bug itself... | 02:56 |
| bernie | duflu: there are a bunch of errors from compiz in ~/.xsession-errors: | 02:56 |
| bernie | Warn: glXCreatePixmap failed (multiple times) | 02:56 |
| bernie | compiz (decor) - Warn: failed to bind pixmap to texture | 02:57 |
| bernie | duflu: ok, i'll add what i found so far | 02:57 |
| duflu | bernie: That's not related I think. And it's something that we have fixed in compiz 0.9.8 | 02:57 |
| bernie | duflu: is there a package in precise-proposed or some ppa? | 02:58 |
| duflu | bernie: No, sorry, not yet because 0.9.8 breaks compatibility with unity in precise. That needs to be resolved and both put in the same PPA. Will take time. | 02:58 |
| duflu | bernie: Thanks for adding the extra details. I will get to reviewing the bug formally today. It was already in my queue. | 03:00 |
| bernie | thanks a lot | 03:00 |
| bernie | i'm glad to help by providing logs or running debug binaries. i can also use gdb if needed. | 03:02 |

| davidcalle | mhr3, ping | 14:44 |
| davidcalle | Apparently, latest libunity breaks gi introspection. | 14:46 |
| mhr3 | davidcalle, pong | 14:46 |
| davidcalle | mhr3, do you know where it could come from? configure.ac has been modified for GTK. Probably related. | 14:53 |
| mhr3 | oh? | 14:56 |
| mhr3 | davidcalle, can you pastebin the new gir? | 14:59 |
| davidcalle | mhr3, you mean /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/overrides/Unity.py ? | 15:00 |
| mhr3 | davidcalle, /usr/share/gir-1.0 | 15:01 |
| davidcalle | mhr3, http://pastebin.com/9LpQZaLB | 15:03 |
| greyback | cbradsha_: ping | 15:10 |
| mhr3 | davidcalle, the girs are identical | 15:18 |
| mhr3 | what's exactly the problem you're seeing? | 15:18 |
| davidcalle | mhr3, that's what bothers me. I've tried it on two machines. from gi.repository import Unity fails with "ERROR:root:Could not find any typelib for Unity" | 15:20 |
| mhr3 | davidcalle, and do you have the typelib? | 15:20 |
| mhr3 | davidcalle, /usr/lib/girepository-1.0 | 15:21 |
| davidcalle | mhr3, yes, the Unity one is missing. | 15:21 |
| davidcalle | mhr3, yes as in "that's it" | 15:22 |
| mhr3 | didrocks, ^^ typelib missing for latest libunity | 15:22 |
| didrocks | interesting, I ship it though | 15:23 |
| didrocks | so multiarch didn't work for you? | 15:23 |
| mhr3 | typelib isn't arch-independant | 15:23 |
| didrocks | davidcalle: you have it under /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/girepository-1.0/Unity-5.0.typelib | 15:23 |
| didrocks | right? | 15:23 |
| didrocks | or i386 if you have an i386 machine | 15:23 |
| davidcalle | didrocks, it's here (on 64) | 15:24 |
| didrocks | davidcalle: so, it seems that gir doesn't know how to read multiarch | 15:24 |
| mhr3 | bad gir, bad! | 15:24 |
| mhr3 | or well, pygi? | 15:25 |
| didrocks | yeah, should be pygi | 15:25 |
| didrocks | I can workaround this for now | 15:25 |
| didrocks | not really fun, we loose the multiarch benefit | 15:25 |
| didrocks | but well | 15:25 |
| didrocks | mhr3: davidcalle: ok, next commit will be fine, I moved the file and tested | 15:33 |
| davidcalle | didrocks, thanks a lot | 15:34 |
| didrocks | davidcalle: yw :) | 15:34 |
| mzcl-mn | good afternoon | 15:58 |
| mzcl-mn | did you notice that after last upgrade to mesa drivers people are complaining about unity failing back to unity 2d? | 15:59 |
| mzcl-mn | I for one experienced this with the drivers I got from the amd site | 16:00 |
| === dandrader_ is now known as dandrader|lunch | ||
| mzcl-mn | to get back I had to uninstall those and use either the ones in jockey or the ones that came with the distro | 16:01 |
| mzcl-mn | is this reported yet? | 16:02 |
| mzcl-mn | I mean already... ;( | 16:02 |

| cr3 | hi folks, might anyone happen to know where /usr/lib/unity/autopilot.py might come from? | 19:14 |
| Zhenech | dpkg -S /usr/lib/unity/autopilot.py | 19:14 |
| cr3 | Zhenech: exactly, no match, I wonder if it's something that existed and got removed at some point. I'm about to see if there might be a related log message in lp:unity | 19:15 |
| Zhenech | if removed, the file would be gone | 19:16 |
| Zhenech | (is it maybe a symlink?) | 19:16 |
| cr3 | Zhenech: no symlink, but I am finding tools/autopilot and test/autopilot in lp:unity, not sure if it used to be installed at some point though | 19:17 |
