| lapion | so anyone try to install ubuntu-gnome over regular ubuntu | 08:29 |
|---|---|---|
| smartboyhw | lapion, oh what ppa? | 08:32 |
| lapion | no just install regular quantal b1, then install quantal-gnome b1 without formatting the fses | 08:33 |
| * smartboyhw thinks it is b2 now:P | 08:34 | |
| lapion | I meant b2 | 08:34 |
| smartboyhw | Ah OK | 08:35 |
| lapion | brb | 08:35 |
| lapion | hello smartboyhw.. | 08:53 |
| smartboyhw | Hello lapion | 08:53 |
| vibhav | Hullo | 08:54 |
| darkxst | lapion, just install ubuntu-gnome-desktop | 08:54 |
| smartboyhw | Hello vibhav too | 08:54 |
| lapion | the first time I got the gdm, but after logging in the X server got killed | 08:54 |
| darkxst | do you have logs? | 08:54 |
| lapion | after restart not oven gdm will start up.. | 08:55 |
| lapion | only the mouse cursor for the xserver starts.. | 08:56 |
| darkxst | are you doing service gdm restart? | 08:56 |
| lapion | I can create logs at each startup.. | 08:56 |
| lapion | yes darkxst | 08:56 |
| darkxst | that is a known problem | 08:56 |
| darkxst | if you do stop, then wait a sec and do start it will work | 08:57 |
| lapion | als trying gdm sto, gdm start.. | 08:57 |
| lapion | I mean stop gdm , start gdm | 08:57 |
| darkxst | which works? yes? | 09:00 |
| * smartboyhw decides not to install it for now:P | 09:01 | |
| darkxst | smartboyhw, how we going to fix it, if no one tests it! | 09:02 |
| smartboyhw | darkxst, well fix it then I'll test it:P | 09:03 |
| lapion | darkxst after the first gdm bailout, will not start up again | 09:03 |
| darkxst | lapion, enable gdm debugging (/etc/gdm/custom.conf) | 09:04 |
| darkxst | then file a bug with ubuntu-bug gdm after it crashes | 09:05 |
| darkxst | hopefully that will also attach the gdm logs, but if not they are in /var/log/gdm/$DISPLAY.log | 09:05 |
| vsrao | After an update, the X server has problems starting. I can login through the CLI mode, but if I switch back, it freezes. Is this a known issue? Also, colord faults a lot. | 10:00 |
| smartboyhw | welcome jbicha | 13:42 |
| jbicha | hi | 13:42 |
| lapion | To all developers, thank you very much for returning the old tried and true unity killer gnome 2 look. | 14:11 |
| lapion | my next upgrade will be to ubuntu-gnome I was allready thinking about going back to the 'ol trusty slackware what with the 14.0 release... | 14:13 |
| lapion | most probably | 14:13 |
| jbicha | I don't think many are aware that the Ubuntu GNOME Remix includes GNOME Classic so tell your friends | 14:20 |
| jbicha | Edubuntu includes it also | 14:20 |
| jbicha | I don't know if we'll always include it though; that depends on demand I guess | 14:21 |
| lapion | maybe the big problem is that people who tended to use the menu where mostly people that tended to not allow usage feedback due to security concerns I guess... | 14:25 |
| jbicha | hmm? | 14:27 |
| lapion | I prefer the menu because it frees the creative part of the mind to do the actual working. | 14:29 |
| lapion | and since image recognition requires more processing time then letter recognition I would prefer using less mind computing time on medial tasks such as remembering what that applications icon looks like again. | 14:31 |
| jbicha | I need to see how much space GNOME Classic takes on the image, if it's only a few MB then we probably should continue to include it | 14:36 |
| lapion | I do however miss the separation of System menu and application menu but that is not a ball-breaker | 14:40 |
| lapion | I however just found a nice bug, I cannot seem to get the gdm login anymore after a login with the last available desktop variant in the login list. | 14:43 |
| lapion | not even changing password and a logout helps. | 14:43 |
| lapion | nvm I found the autologin disable setting, however, if someone where to logout once or twice I think the system should go to gdm-password screen. | 14:54 |
| lapion | I do however think there is a rather annoying security problem in the password changing dialog. | 14:57 |
| lapion | as soon as you leave the old password field the system already checks the password. Which opens a window to semi-brute-force password hacking. | 14:58 |
| lapion | hacking=cracking | 14:59 |
| jbicha | lapion: oh, bug 1052453 should be fixed now | 15:00 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1052453 in Unity Greeter "Cannot click other sessions in unity-greeter" [Undecided,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1052453 | 15:00 |
| jbicha | but... that's only if you were using lightdm, not gdm | 15:00 |
| lapion | gdm is the default for ubuntu-gnome | 15:01 |
| jbicha | ok, never mind that then | 15:01 |
| lapion | but that problem is supposed to be solved simply by disabling auto-login | 15:01 |
| jbicha | if someone has physical access to your machine then they have access to everything on your machine | 15:01 |
| lapion | if autologin is set the system does not allow logging out | 15:02 |
| jbicha | yeah, autologin isn't working quite right | 15:02 |
| lapion | You have to disable and reenable autologin before you can logout | 15:14 |
| lapion | how can I modify/add the panels, add/move applets etc etc? | 15:22 |
