[00:00] <darkxst> jbicha, seems to be due to yet another ubuntu patch (userless gdm)
[00:00] <darkxst> but should be able to fix it with another casper patch
[00:02] <jbicha> are you sure a Ubuntu patch is responsible? which patch?
[00:03] <darkxst> user filtering patch in accountsservice
[00:03] <darkxst> apparently upstream dropped the user filtering sometime ago
[00:03] <darkxst> however we should be able to just edit login.defs
[00:03] <darkxst> /etc/login.defs
[00:05] <darkxst> I am trying to test it, but can't even get to gdm on the current live cd!
[00:06] <jbicha> haha, I blame you for that ;)
[00:07] <jbicha> you should be able to edit /etc/gdm/custom.conf or you can manipulate stuff in dconf
[00:07] <jbicha> sudo service restart gdm
[00:09] <darkxst> lol, yeh
[00:43] <darkxst> jbicha, did you try the plymouth theme?
[00:45] <jbicha> hmm, I think I forgot to try your latest version
[00:45] <jbicha> this week was crazy, UIFE's from all directions & I'm trying to keep the docs team afloat
[00:45] <darkxst> ah ok
[00:46] <jbicha> part of finishing the docs has meant that I'm mostly stuck with stock Unity for a few more days
[02:04] <jbicha> we should fix the virtualbox 3d driver problem, I think I'll just patch it in Ubuntu since it looks like it's been 2 weeks in Debian's bug tracker without a response
[02:05] <jbicha> we should backport that to precise too, right?
[02:12] <darkxst> jbicha, this was the response to my upstream bug report "Ubuntu 12.10 runs X.org 1.13 and this one is not yet supported by the VirtualBox Guest Additions. And that's the actual reason why the drm module does not load. "
[02:13] <darkxst> I only test them briefly, but if they are working ok, then we can patch it.
[02:13] <darkxst> its not required for precise though (I pretty sure precise liveCD's work as expected)
[02:16] <jbicha> I expect there are already a bunch of precise users trying out quantal from virtualbox
[02:16] <jbicha> or does that not matter, it's just the quantal environment that needs fixing?
[02:28] <darkxst> yeh its the guest drivers
[02:28] <darkxst> although does precise have the same virtualbox version?
[02:30] <darkxst> hmm, worth testing if the 4.1.18 (quantal) drivers work with a 4.1.12 (precise) virtual box host
[02:30] <darkxst> although I guess its not so critical now, with software rendering enabled
[02:32] <darkxst> anyway I gotta run
[02:33] <darkxst> I will look at doing another casper merge soon
[11:25] <darkxst> ricotz, have you been using the new nautilus?
[11:26] <darkxst> if I right click on a file/folder, I do not get a properties option
[12:08] <ricotz> darkxst, properties entry is available here
[20:53] <darkxst> jbicha, which option you think is best re logout/session switching?
[20:57] <jbicha> we can't mess with /etc/login.defs
[20:57] <jbicha> the original casper code had autologin enabled with a delay of 10, we should probably do that
[20:58] <jbicha> *timed login enabled
[20:58] <jbicha> and re-enable log out
[21:01] <jbicha> I guess you're right that gdm itself doesn't enforce the mininum 1000 uid
[21:02] <jbicha> doing that would still require a little bit of work on someone's part to log into GNOME Classic
[21:03] <jbicha> they'd have to know ubuntu is the user and just hit enter for the password
[21:27] <darkxst> jbicha, that (timed) login was to supposed to auto-login them back into the session
[21:28] <darkxst> also timed login doesnt work with user id at 999 (unless change login.defs)
[21:29] <jbicha> right, so those that are confused will get back to a working live environment
[21:29] <jbicha> oh
[21:30] <jbicha> we could ask why the live user can't be uid 1000
[21:30] <darkxst> well that doesnt really matter, can just edit login.defs with casper, that bit is fine
[21:31] <darkxst> but ask anyway I guess
[21:36] <jbicha> no, we can't edit login.defs with casper without Ubuntu being cool with it
[21:37] <jbicha> I'll ask about it in #ubuntu-installer on Monday, unless you'd prefer to?
[21:40] <darkxst> even if its a gdm only patch? no one else uses gdm right?
[21:43] <jbicha> login.defs isn't gdm specific, but I guess you're talking about editing it just for gdm user on the live install
[21:44] <darkxst> yeh only edit it if gdm is installed
[21:45] <jbicha> but we'll need to ask, maybe ubiquity needs it to be set up a certain way
[21:53] <darkxst> ubiquity will break if we change UID
[21:59] <darkxst> (it is hardcoded to look for UID 999)
[23:47] <darkxst> jbicha, gawk is missing from installed system
[23:48] <darkxst> (which breaks bash command completion
[23:50] <jbicha> are you sure?
[23:50] <jbicha> if that were the case, bash-completion should depend on it
[23:51] <jbicha> I've pretty much installed ubuntu-desktop on top of the GNOME Remix for docs work this week
[23:53] <darkxst> well I do say `service nfs<tab>`
[23:53] <darkxst> and I get a message to install awk
