darkxstjbicha, looks like ubuntu have removed gdm support from indicator-session01:39
darkxstso user switching from unity while running gdm has no chance of working01:39
jbichawell that seems short-sighted of them :(01:46
jbichadarkxst: hmm, major casper upgrade today, did you file a bug report for our remaining tweaks?02:17
jbichaeveraldo: I think we're just going to end up shipping 12.10 without a gnome installer slideshow02:20
darkxstjbicha, I have an open merge request for the password dialog tweak02:20
darkxstI haven't yet done the username tweak, since I am waiting to see if we can get autologin (log-out) fixed02:21
darkxstotherwise will have to disable autologin completely02:21
jbichaautologin worked for Beta 2, didn't it?02:24
jbichafor the live environment02:24
darkxstyeh, but its broken now02:26
darkxstpossible it only worked due to one of the other bugs that was fixed02:26
darkxstwell autologin works, but you can't logout again02:26
darkxstanyway halfline is going to try look into it, in the next few days02:27
jbichaok, I haven't rebuilt the images since Thursday, I probably should be building daily since final freeze is only a week away02:28
darkxstand it worked then?02:33
jbichayeah, in the live environment autologin worked and I was able to logout from Shell and choose Classic02:34
darkxstah, but you couldn't log back, since that was before this landed https://code.launchpad.net/bugs/105833802:34
jbichawell Classic didn't have a logout button... but except for that it worked fine02:36
darkxstapparently it only happens when username != hostname03:17
Wilson2BSo for weeks now I thought my problem was Unity / Compiz. Turns out it was #cairo-dock,  Bottom of screen would go blank on primary display only. Has anyone seen this before?03:17
darkxstWilson2B, yeh cairo-dock does that here (on secondary display)03:18
Wilson2Binteresting03:19
Wilson2BIt's the primary for me, for example when I do dual screen, the bottom screen is full , when I make it primary it cuts off at bottom Cairo tray03:20
Wilson2Blike it takes up a large rectangle of space03:20
Wilson2BTrying to figure out how to fix it, I reset the settings (Ithink) and uninstalled / reinstalled Cairo doc03:21
darkxstjbicha, anyway username patch has to go in build script03:24
darkxstjbicha, seems to work ok when I set *both* username and hostname to "gnome"03:24
everaldodarkxst, ping06:27
everaldodid the text appear for you?06:27
everaldo(on plymouth screen)06:28
everaldohumm, strange, looks like we have some errors on script06:37
darkxsteveraldo, pong09:33
darkxstwhat errors?09:33
darkxsteveraldo, you need to add the other files back09:45
darkxstprogress*.png and ubuntu-logo*.png09:45
darkxstprogress dots are used for the password box, and currently logo is used to position text.10:02
everaldodarkxst, I have it working here10:28
everaldobut I am thinking about remove unused staff10:28
everaldoit needed the images because it is used to calculate text and password box positions10:29
darkxstyes, I know10:29
darkxstbut I left it like that, since its safer than removing it all10:30
everaldowhat do you think, keep all stuff from old theme10:30
everaldoos just add images to get it working?10:30
everaldo(btw, alread changed colors here)10:30
darkxstjust put the images back in10:30
darkxstI will clean it up at some point, but should be fine for now10:31
everaldook, I will put images back10:32
everaldoit is faster10:32
everaldomaybe a bug report to clean up later10:32
darkxstthe main issue is, I don't even know how to test all the features in that script.10:33
everaldodarkxst, https://code.launchpad.net/~ecanuto/ubuntu/quantal/ubuntu-gnome-default-settings/ubuntu-gnome-default-settings-bug106012310:36
everaldodo you know how I can associate a bug report to a specific branch?10:37
everaldoor we don't need it?10:37
darkxstyou missing the `*16.png` files10:41
everaldodarkxst, yes, because I don't have it in blue colors10:41
everaldojust on normal ubuntu colors10:42
everaldolubuntu also don't have *16 pngs10:43
everaldounfortunatelly svgs is not available10:44
darkxstwell in that case remove the "if (bits_per_pixel == 4) {" statement that declares the 16.png names10:44
everaldodarkxst, do you know how to test in 4 bits per pixel?10:46
everaldoI mean, theres a way to simulate10:46
everaldo?10:46
darkxstyou would need to restart X10:46
darkxst(and configure it in xorg.conf)10:47
everaldowhats about include the *16.png from ubuntu theme and fix it for 13.04 ?10:48
darkxstor that, the only one that gets displayed is progress_dots_off anyway10:48
everaldoI will try here to convert the images10:49
everaldoif it look ok then we can use it10:49
darkxstwhy the huge branch name? you can just do ~ecanuto/ubuntu-gnome-default-settings/branch_name10:52
everaldojust saw  some people doing it and start to do the same10:53
everaldoI really don't have too much experience with launchpad so I try to mimic some other people10:54
everaldolet me try to use tiny name10:55
darkxstprogress_dot_on.png is not used, so doesnt need to be blue10:55
darkxstif you want blue dots, then dot_off should be the blue one10:56

smartboyhweveraldo, :)11:07
everaldodarkxst, any ideas for 16 color background?11:22
darkxstdon't worry about it for now11:23
darkxsthopefully most hardware these days supports full colour11:23
everaldodarkxst, progress_dot_off.png must be progress_dot_on.png and progress_dot_off.png could be an empty image right?11:30
everaldosmartboyhw, looks like I will "participate" in this 24 hour-marathon ;-)11:31
darkxstprogress_dot_off.png is used for the password dialog11:32
darkxstprogress_dot_on.png is unused11:32
smartboyhweveraldo, lol11:34
darkxsteveraldo, you can remove 16.pngs, ubuntu-logo.png and dots_on.png now11:49

everaldodarkxst, yes, build script is much better now12:32
everaldobut we still use logo.image = Image (logo_filename);12:33
everaldobut line that defines logo_filename is commented12:33
darkxsteveraldo, you can comment out that line also12:35
everaldoI am just doing more cleanups12:38
jbichaspeaking of logos....12:44
jbichaI wish we could add the Ubuntu logo to gdm but I couldn't ever get it to work, which is crazy since several other distros do it12:45
smartboyhwOoh12:45
everaldojbicha, we can check how Fedora do it12:55
* everaldo downloding fedora 18 iso12:55
* smartboyhw hates Fedora:P12:56
everaldowhen Ubuntu release 11.04 I start to use Fedora12:58
everaldofor two months12:58
everaldobut got lots of problems with nvidia and broadcom12:59
everaldoyou must use another repo but theres a delay between updates and lots of time I got my video broken12:59
everaldoalso, other pieces looks broken12:59
everaldoI love their blue colors and thats all :-)13:00
smartboyhw.......13:00
everaldoalso, I don't like too much the things that redhat guys are doing with nautilus and empathy13:00

everaldolet me try it13:17
darkxstno13:17
everaldono? why?13:17
darkxstthey are used for the password13:17
everaldono, they are not13:19
everaldowell, it was used by TextYOffset that really don't need to depend  progress_indicator13:19

* smartboyhw is trying to get those Canonical guys to open an unoffficial distros QA Tracker14:38
jbichasmartboyhw: how many unofficial distros would participate in that?14:39
smartboyhwjbicha, mere proposal;p14:43
jbichaI mean, if it's just for Ubuntu GNOME, maybe we'll be official next cycle14:44
smartboyhwSuggestion:P14:46
smartboyhwIf they ignore I don't care14:46
jbicharicotz: I don't know if you saw https://launchpad.net/~jbicha/+archive/ibus/16:50
jbichabad side is that I had trouble running GNOME Shell after ppa-purging that repo, ibus gsettings migration trouble or something17:07
ricotzjbicha, hi, no, havent seen that18:17
ricotzi am not familiar with ibus though18:17
jbichawe need the new ibus to fix bug 104591418:29
ubot5Launchpad bug 1045914 in ibus (Ubuntu) "Keyboard layout doesn't show in GNOME Shell session" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/104591418:29
jbichaor I guess we could try to hack gnome-shell to work with the quantal ibus18:31
ricotzjbicha, what about the ubuntu/debian maintainers of ibus, is there any progress to start on that18:32
jbichafor ubuntu, it will have to wait for R as there are too many rdepends18:32
jbichaI haven't approached the Debian maintainers yet (I'm not sure that ibus is packaged much on the Ubuntu side)18:33
ricotzok, R is fine, but this needs to be tested by people actually able to use it18:34
ricotzand preferable by the original maintainers18:35
ricotzbut irc there were already 1.4.x updates left out :\18:35
jbichait seemed to work but I couldn't tell if it was better or worse than ibus 1.418:38
jbichawe probably want it in a staging ppa though for those who really need a keyboard layout switcher18:38
jbichaunfortunately, nux is a rdepends that needs to be rebuilt with the new ibus or Unity won't run :( so it's not something I can guarantee won't break things18:40
ricotzif i get this right, updating to 1.5 will break things for non-g-s session or does it preserver compatibility18:40
ricotzah i see18:40
jbichait works today but nux gets updated fairly regularly (it just needs a rebuild but that will take someone paying attention)18:41
ricotzwhy does it need a rebuild?18:41
jbichasoname bump18:41
ricotzso there is an actual bump or is a bad abi break?18:42
jbichaand like I said earlier, reverting back to ibus didn't go well when I tried it Monday18:42
ricotzi see18:43
ricotzsorry, i need to go18:43

darkxstoh that was for the gnome release notes, screenshots21:18
greg-gheya, jbicha Have you been able to install UbuntuOne on the UbuntuGNOME? I see I have the syncdaemon running and all that now, but I can't connect the computer to U1 (ie, when I do u1sdtool --connect nothing happens)21:21
darkxstjbicha, so was that what you wanted? or a different logo21:21
darkxst?21:21
greg-galso, again, thanks for the awesome work on this, you've re-affirmed some of my faith :)21:21
jbichadarkxst: I didn't know you were doing documentation stuff21:22
darkxstjbicha, I'm not, just helped out with the screenshots, thats all21:23
jbichawell that still counts21:23
jbichadarkxst: yeah I believe that's correct21:29
jbichathe logo guidelines are a bit confusing http://design.ubuntu.com/assets/ubuntu-logo21:29
jbichathanks so much, I tried several times a few weeks ago without getting it to work21:30
darkxstI guess you didnt try setting it in the override file?'21:31
jbichaI tried /etc/gdm/greeter.gsettings21:34
darkxstjbicha, https://code.launchpad.net/~darkxst/ubuntu/quantal/ubuntu-gnome-default-settings/gdm-logo/+merge/12788821:50
darkxstjbicha, ah yeh, for some reason the logo only loads when set in overrides21:52
jbichaum, I don't have that file on my computer21:56
jbichaah, I'll just substitute /lib/plymouth/ubuntu_logo.png21:59
darkxstlogo was included in the merge request (however bzr missed the install file the first time )22:03
darkxstand yeh its just copied from plymouth, since I figure there is not guarantee the ubuntu theme has to be installed22:04
jbichaI don't think we need to copy that file; it's included in plymouth which should be installed and it won't break if that file's not found22:07
everaldodarkxst, jbicha, we don't have the logo on plymouth theme anymore22:09
jbichadpkg -S ubuntu_logo.png22:09
darkxsteveraldo, that was for gdm greeter screen22:09
jbichadarkxst: on the other hand, we should have a logo for gdm-fallback too but it's a light background22:11
jbichahow about the black Ubuntu logo with orange circle of friends?22:11
jbichaI don't think that's pre-installed22:11
everaldoah, so it is also available on package "plymouth"22:12
everaldoI removed it from "plymouth-theme-ubuntu-gnome-logo"22:13
darkxstjbicha, black on a grey background wont really work?22:13
jbichadarkxst: I tried using the plymouth logo in fallback mode and it was white text on a light gray background22:13
everaldois this the logo on top-left?22:14
darkxsteveraldo, https://www.dropbox.com/s/ckjlp2a19bea5wh/Ubuntu%20UG%20%40%202012-10-04%2007%3A12%3A48.png22:15
jbichano, it's a logo in the center right above the name chooser, by default there isn't a logo22:15
jbichaFedora wanted a distro logo option22:15
jbichaI don't think GNOME design likes distro branding22:16
darkxstjbicha, we could change the background colour of fallback mode22:16
everaldodarkxst, what it the problem in fallback? do you have a screenshot?22:17
jbichalogging out for a bit...22:17
darkxstjbicha, actually can set a different logo for fallback22:18
darkxsteveraldo, I think jbicha was talking about the gdm logo22:29
everaldoah22:34
darkxstoh, it is tiny :( https://www.dropbox.com/s/tt4z91y2stbtavm/Ubuntu%20UG%20%40%202012-10-04%2008%3A49%3A00.png22:50
everaldolooks nice22:52
everaldodarkxst, whats about a blue ubuntu logo instead of orange?22:52
everaldoor black22:52
darkxsteveraldo, I don't think we are allowed to change colours of the logo22:52
everaldodarkxst, here we have a complete black: http://design.ubuntu.com/assets/ubuntu-logo22:53
darkxstyeh could use that22:55
darkxstjbicha, what do you think ? all black or black w/ orange circle of friends?22:55
jbichamy instinct is for black w/ orange, can you make the logo bigger?23:00
darkxstbetter? https://www.dropbox.com/s/55qskqebt989i73/Ubuntu%20UG%20%40%202012-10-04%2009%3A01%3A39.png23:02
jbichayeah, is that the same size as the non-fallback logo?23:05
darkxsthmm, its still a little smaller23:06
darkxstfallback logo gets shrunk quite a bit23:06
darkxstwhere as normal logo is drawn at actual size23:06
