jbichaactually that didn't exactly work w/ accounsservice; I don't know, it seemed like debuild was ignoring ubuntu.series00:05
jbichaanyway I uploaded it00:06
darkxstok00:09
jbichait worked in sbuild but not with debuild -S00:10
darkxstI though debuild picked up ubuntu.series when I was testing00:12
darkxstjbicha, metacity is not loading here for gnome classic sessions00:14
jbichadarkxst: are you sure you're not running Compiz? bug 106209900:20

jbichafirst bug is fixed, I guess the second one may still be broken for quantal release00:20
darkxstah ok00:34
darkxstso basically it wont work even when compiz is installed?00:47
jbichaGNOME Classic (with effects) is broken :(00:53
jbichathat should be a critical bug for Edubuntu, but Edubuntu is more or less recommending that schools really ought to stay with 12.0400:53
jbichallvmpipe/dropping Unity 2D is also causing issues for LTSP00:53
jbichait turns out compiz isn't really that big of a file size addition but I think just shipping GNOME Classic w/ Metacity is more than adequate for our needs00:54
darkxstwell yeh, perhaps we should remove the broken one from session list?01:17
jbichahmm...my instinct was to say it's too late for quantal but on second thought...01:22
jbichaanyway, logging off for the night01:22
DangerMHiya - anyone about at all ?03:03
smartboyhwHey jbicha13:54
jbichahi13:56
DangerMHi jbicha - just started using Gnome Remix - joined the group on launchpad13:56
DangerMIs there anything you needed help with13:56
smartboyhw:D13:56
jbichaDangerM: well the release is coming quite soon, so reporting & fixing bugs is our priority14:01
DangerMOk cool (I'm DangerMouseUK/DangerMouse on forum/launchpad respectively)14:01
DangerMI think the auto-login bug is a bit of a showstopper14:01
DangerMHad to edit /etc/gdm/custom.conf manually to get my login screen back14:02
jbichaDangerM: darkxst already has a fix for that, I just haven't finished reviewing it yet14:02
DangerMAh cool that's the only thing so far that I've noticed and I've been using it for 3-4 days now14:03
DangerMHad another problem with the window manager/compiz not working properly but I added some PPAs and it went away14:04
jbichaI think the compiz problem was a combination of bug 1062099 and bug 103675214:07

jbichaGNOME Shell doesn't use compiz you know, it's just Unity that does (or optionally, GNOME Classic)14:07
DangerMYeah I'm currently using Gnome Classic + Compiz14:24
DangerMThats my preferred setup :)14:24
DangerMI will make the move to the newer interface I'm just dragging my feet for as long as I can14:25
jbichaDangerM: are you familiar with gnome-shell-extensions?14:28
DangerMjbicha : yes I am - they go some way to mitigating the cross-over14:29
DangerMbut I still prefer the classic look, haven't quite got stuck into the search for everything14:30
DangerMsort of thing - I just like having menus with programs on them and going to find them14:30
DangerMUnless there's an extension I'm missing that does that14:31
jbichathat's why I brought it up: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/6/applications-menu/14:32
jbichathere's another one for a places menu but it's a little broken on my computer14:35
DangerMOh that looks quite nice actually - might give it a go and see where I get14:37
DangerMWhilst I've got you here, I've got three gnome3 PPA's on my install14:37
DangerMppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 + a staging and testing ppa (forgot exact names for those)14:38
DangerMis that a non-recommended setup14:38
jbichaDangerM: I don't recommend you use testing or staging; testing is for the latest git snapshots; staging is for "riskier" stuff14:42
DangerMOk I will ppa-purge both of them then - so far everything seems stable enough, no complaints but I'd rather have it running in recommended format14:43
jbichathe gnome3 ppa should be fairly safe; it's not necessary but it's nice if you want more of the latest stable GNOME14:43
jbichaI consider the gnome3 ppa to be pretty much supported although there may be good reason Ubuntu held back from upgrading certain components14:44
DangerMOh ok cool, well I'll keep that one then and just purge the other two - I noticed in Fedora that my fingerprint stuff worked out of the box and it doesn't with Ubuntu Gnome - is that an Ubuntu thing ?14:48
DangerMThe implementation seemed a bit broken in Fedora so I haven't made the jump to install it just yet anyway14:51
ricotzjbicha, don't scare my ppa users ;P15:00
smartboyhwlol15:00
DangerMlol ricotz15:05
DangerMI have had no problems so far with either PPA15:05
jbicharicotz: well I don't like the idea of backporting development git snapshots to users of the current stable release15:08
jbichaI'd prefer it if you kept GNOME 3.6 to quantal15:09
jbichayour work *is* useful for developers and those who want to test things before they land15:09
ricotzjbicha, ok, this means you don't like the half of all ppa out there ;)15:09
smartboyhwLOL15:09
ricotzjbicha, no everyone likes do run ubuntu+115:10
ricotz*not15:10
ricotzdaily/snapshot build ppas arent restricted to the currently development release, and so it my testing ppa15:11
jbichasure, I only like a few ppas, I only have 2 enabled at the moment15:11
ricotzbut yeah not everyone should use it before thinking about it15:11
ricotzespecially the staging one15:12
ricotzi see ;), i like ppa a lot, but i guess i only enabled those i am maintaining/co-maintaining15:12
jbichasee, you don't trust other people's ppas either ;)15:13
jbichaactually since I use ubuntu+1, there's not many ppas's I need anyway15:14
ricotzoh, i trust the mozilla team15:14
* smartboyhw trusts the almighty mozilla team too15:15
ricotzjbicha, you wouldnt believe how outdate quantal already is in some points ;)15:15
jbicharight, I like the mozilla ppa's, the LibreOffice ppa that you work on (although I wish it would use the mozilla ppa naming convention), & the GNOME3 PPA as examples15:28
jbichait's about trusting the maintainers to know what they're doing15:28
jbichadarkxst: just did an install without the slideshow installed, it works fine but I filed bug 106297519:04
ubot5Launchpad bug 1062975 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "If slideshow isn't installed, install window resizes to a small window" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/106297519:04
jbichaeveraldo: ^ maybe we should do a conservative one-page slideshow??19:05
everaldojbicha, yes19:12
everaldojbicha, can we ship it just in english?19:13
jbichaI'm not sure exactly what we should do19:14
jbicha1. We could ship without a slideshow (what the build script is currently set to do)19:14
jbicha2. We could do a simple one-page slideshow, maybe with a short title, maybe without that19:15
jbicha3. Or we could do a full slideshow...but I really don't think we have time for this19:16
everaldoOk, I will make two branches, one with one slide and another with a full one19:16
darkxstjbicha, what do you think of this bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-session/+bug/105784119:16
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1057841 in gdm (Ubuntu) "After logging into unity or gnome classic, I can't switch users. Goes to lock screen. Using GDM" [Undecided,Confirmed]19:16
everaldojbicha, so tomorow you guys can choose which one to use19:17
darkxstis it too late to fix?19:17
jbichadarkxst: it's not too late but it depends on how complicated it is to fix19:19
darkxstre slideshow, I think we could just make a simple slideshow with 4-5 screenshots that showcase gnome-shell (and you could probably get away with no text)19:20
jbichayeah, the text is the big problem19:20
darkxstjbicha, gnome-screensaver needs to be patched to handle switch user stuff via dbus or libgdm19:20
darkxstsince gdmflexiserver is no more19:21
darkxstif we are careful with screenshots, we shouldnt need any text19:22
everaldowell, we still have the headers to translate but it can be only english or just a few translations19:22
jbichadarkxst: ok, well if we get a reasonable patch, I can help get it in, even if it requires an SRU19:22
darkxstand I wouldnt worry about the fast-user switching in indicator session,19:23
everaldojbicha, darkxst, "Welcome to Ubuntu GNOME 12.10" or "Welcome to Ubuntu GNOME Remix 12.10" ?19:23
darkxstclicking a name should get the login dialog with a "switch user" button19:23
everaldoright now it is "Welcome to Ubuntu GNOME 12.10"19:23
darkxsteveraldo, surely we can translate that with sed?19:24
darkxstsed s/Ubuntu/Ubuntu GNOME/ in *.po19:25
everaldodarkxst, yes, we can but I just wanna know if we will use the word "Remix" for distro name19:26
everaldoI mean, Ubuntu GNOME or Ubuntu GNOME Remix19:26
jbichadarkxst: hey, how many git patches are in your fix for bug 1061993?20:26
ubot5Launchpad bug 1061993 in gdm (Ubuntu) "Can't logout when autologin is set" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/106199320:26
jbichacould you just attach the separate git patches we need instead of merging them into one patch?20:26
darkxstjbicha, yes can do20:29
everaldowhat bg looks better http://imagebin.org/23112920:34
everaldoor http://imagebin.org/23113020:34
everaldo?20:34
jbichadarkxst: thanks, that makes it slightly simpler to review and then remove when the next gdm version is released20:35
gonyereeveraldo: i like #220:37
everaldogonyere, I like #1 but #2 looks to be more close to GNOME since gnome.org main page uses a image like #220:38
gonyereyeah, thats my feeling as well20:38
gonyere#1 is just a bit too dark20:38
gonyerehonestly, something inbetween might be better20:38
jbichaeveraldo: what about bright-day.jpg then?20:40
everaldolet me make one shot with it20:41
everaldoI have three version20:42
everaldoversions20:42
everaldohumm, bright-day is like #2 because I am cutting20:44
everaldolet me fix the way how I cut the original image20:44
everaldojbicha, http://imagebin.org/23113120:46
darkxstjbicha, https://code.launchpad.net/~darkxst/ubuntu/quantal/gdm/fix-lp106199320:50
gonyereis that the original?20:51
gonyerei like it :)20:51
everaldogonyere, the image?20:51
gonyereyeah20:51
everaldoyes, it is original20:51
everaldotheres three original backgrounds20:52
everaldogonyere, look at /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/backgrounds20:52
everaldowe just need to find a good icon to put on the right side since first image don't use screenshot20:53
gonyereare we looking for a gnome icon?20:53
everaldodon't if we are allowed to20:54
everaldomaybe accessivility icon like gnome.org20:54
gonyerehttps://live.gnome.org/BrandGuidelines has official gnome images20:56
everaldoThis page contains source images for the GNOME logo. These can be used in relation to genuine GNOME project activities, including the design of merchandising and marketing materials.20:59
everaldoThe images included here should be used as provided and should not be modified in any way.20:59
jbichadarkxst: more specifically, what I'm looking for is: if you go to http://git.gnome.org/browse/gdm/commit/?h=gnome-3-6&id=571ea34ff621:05
jbichaand click patch21:05
jbichathat gives you the already formatted patch, and it's relatively easy to compare what patches we've applied with what is in the git commit log21:06
darkxstjbicha, they don't apply21:06
jbichaoh21:06
darkxstdebbuild give messages about no fuzz21:06
darkxstallowed or something21:06
jbichawell could you at least preserve the headers so it's more obvious where the patch came from?21:07
jbichaeveraldo: I'm sorry, what do you need an icon for?21:08
darkxstjbicha ok21:08
everaldojbicha, the right side of this first slide is empty, on Ubuntu we have an image... and origami I think21:11
everaldowe must fill this right side with something (or not ;-)21:12
jbichathat's the code name mascot, I don't think we need to fill that space w/ anything21:12
everaldojbicha, GNOME Remix includes shotwell by default?21:15
jbichaeveraldo: yes21:18
darkxstjbicha, like this? http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~darkxst/ubuntu/quantal/gdm/fix-lp1061993/revision/27021:19
jbichaeveraldo: try this, it's slightly out-dated http://bicha.net/ubuntu-gnome-remix/quantal-ubuntu-gnome-i386-20120927.manifest21:19
everaldonice, thanks21:21
everaldoit is included21:21
everaldoso maybe we can keep the shotwell slide and just change the screenshot like I did with music slide (rhythmbox)21:22
everaldoand this is how other slide looks like: http://imagebin.org/23113421:29
jbichadarkxst: thanks so much! I've uploaded now, apologies for the delay in reviewing21:35
everaldook, let me commit some place so you guys can test and help decide what to include or not21:36
everaldojbicha, gonyere, https://code.launchpad.net/~ecanuto/ubuntu/quantal/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/ubuntu-gnome21:42
everaldoto test just type ./test-slideshow.sh ubuntu-gnome21:42
everaldowe can replace the ubuntu related slides but text can't be translated later21:43
jbichaeveraldo: it has a bunch of Ubuntu-specific slides still21:49
everaldojbicha, yes, I know21:49
everaldojbicha, if we are going to make slides available in english I will replace21:50
everaldobut if we are going to go with only one or two21:50
everaldothen I will remove them21:50
jbichaat this point, I want as little stuff needing translation as possible21:51
jbichafinal language packs (pre-release) will be generated Tuesday morning...which gives 0 time for translation21:52
everaldojbicha, so, I will keep the name as "Ubuntu 12.10" (without GNOME) so we will be nice with welcome message. Then replace all slide that is common only changing images and all other slides will be remove or replace to screenshot only without image21:54
everaldojbicha, is that ok for you?21:55
jbichayeah, let's see what that looks like21:55
everaldohumm, I don't see any translation, theres a folder with .po but all languages is in english22:11
everaldomaybe translations is not uploaded yet?22:11
jbichaeveraldo: po/ubuntu/ has lots of different languages22:13
everaldojbicha, yes, but on ubiquity all po files are in english22:14
everaldodid you know if ubiquity really show slides in different languages?22:14
jbichaeveraldo: you've never tried installing Ubuntu in a different language?22:16
everaldojbicha, no :)22:16
everaldowhat is really weird since I am brazillian :)22:17
everaldofound translations22:19
darkxsteveraldo, some translations are incomplete,22:19
darkxstanyway my suggestion would be to keep the first slide, then for the other slides just have screenshots taking up the whole window22:32
darkxstthen you could have screenshots that are self-explanatory without any text22:33
everaldodarkxst, is what I am doing right now22:41
everaldodarkxst, but to be honest, I don't see any reason to don't ship text without translation22:41
everaldoeven ubuntu and kubuntu are not 100% translated in all available languages22:42
everaldohttps://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/quantal/+source/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu/+pots/ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu22:42
jbichaeveraldo: that would be fine if we were before User Interface Freeze22:52
everaldowell, looks like screenshots and icons only could be nice too23:01
jbichalogging off for the evening23:02
