desrtseeing some weird issues with ubiquity on the 08-20 daily04:01
desrtat first the X server came up with a totally black screen (on boot)04:01
desrtand i have Xorg.log for displays 0 and 1 (which seems odd)04:02
desrtkilling X and restarting ubiquity (via /etc/init.d/ubiquity) gets me an X server with a wallpaper but not much else04:02
desrtand looking at ps it seems that this makes sense -- the 'wallpaper' program is running (as well as a11y stuff, dconf, dbus, etc) but no installer04:03
desrtmanually invoking DISPLAY=:0 sudo ubiquity gets me the installer04:06
desrtbut it seems that i shouldn't have to do this... :)04:06
TheMusodesrt: Yeah the a11y stuff is from prior to GTK3 using atk-bridge. It was brought up to facilitate the easy use of orca during install. That code needs removing... I might actually take care of that now.04:09
desrtTheMuso: is that the explanation for why the installer is not started?04:15
desrtwell.. i managed to get it installed04:24
desrti'll be around if anyone wants me to try to reproduce the problem04:24
TheMusodesrt: No its not, but you mentioned it so I thought I'd clarrify.04:25
desrti considered it a good thing that a11y was running04:29
desrtit meant that there were _some_ signs of life :)04:29
TheMusoheh ok.04:40

xnoxNow that there is no desktop on the livecd's in quantal in virtual machines (since unity-2d is removed) I propose we default to ubiquity debconf interface17:53
xnox... or on second thought I will use an old daily / alpha to continue development work.17:54
njincjwatson, today's quantal amd64,  running oem modality, is possible to choose to encrypt disk during the installation, is this a new antitheft ?18:51
xnoxnjin: this is LUKS full disk encryption19:04
xnoxnjin: it's available in 'normal' user mode as well.19:04
xnoxnjin: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/foundations-q-ubiquity-lvm-luks19:05
njinxnox, ok, but is not clear to me what mean during an oem installation, but as is decided so, will accept. again a question, in the end-user setup step is ubiquity-dm running or ubiquity (nothing starts, only background, so I want to know if it is again the ubiquity-dm bug or a new one). thanks19:22
xnoxnjin: do you have the screenshot which is confusing for you?19:23
xnoxnjin: note, if  you are in a VM and do not have 3D accelaration, you will not get desktop at all.19:24
njinxnox, i've run it in real hardware and in virtualbox, but same behavior, everythings good (in real hardware) till the end of ship to end user, reboot, then nothing19:26
xnoxnjin: what hardware? intel graphics?19:27
xnoxnjin: or nvidia?19:27
xnoxnjin: did you tick install proprietary drivers in the installer?19:27
njinin real hardware nvidia with only nouveau but starting from the live sessio from the splash screen because ubiquity-dm bug19:28
infinitynjin: First boot in oem-config mode will still be ubiquity-dm, so it's probably the same bug.19:37
njininfinity, I'm talking about the first boot of the end user, where it setup the system19:38
infinitynjin: Yes, so am I.19:38
njinok, thanks19:38
