| jbicha | darkxst: good catch! I'm testing it now | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| darkxst | oh no, it cached every attempt to add gmail account, now its loading them all at once | 00:07 |
| jbicha | darkxst: it still doesn't work with GOA, does it? | 00:26 |
| darkxst | I didnt try, but that could well be a different bug | 00:29 |
| darkxst | jbicha, actually yes it fixed the GOA issue also | 00:30 |
| jbicha | hmm, actually it still failed here | 00:30 |
| jbicha | oh, let me try logging out | 00:31 |
| darkxst | you may need to make sure evolution-source-registry process gets reloaded | 00:31 |
| jbicha | oh yeah, you're right about all the other attempted accounts magically showing up | 00:35 |
| darkxst | yeh, obviously they were shoved into a queue that never got processed due the missing modules | 00:35 |
| jbicha | awesome, it works | 00:36 |
| darkxst | yep :) | 00:38 |
| jbicha | darkxst: wow, e-d-s has been broken since July | 01:00 |
| jbicha | ooh, I believe that fixes Contacts being broken with GOA too | 01:02 |
| darkxst | well, thunderbird is the default these days isnt ? | 01:04 |
| darkxst | but gnome-shell is quite heavily integrated with e-d-s | 01:05 |
| jbicha | Contacts is shipped in Ubuntu because of Empathy | 01:05 |
| jbicha | thunderbird uses e-d-s too but I don't know if it was affected | 01:05 |
| darkxst | oh right, I just got a bunch of gmail addressbook in thunderbird' | 01:07 |
| darkxst | so it was a whole lot of broken .... | 01:10 |
| darkxst | jbicha, are you planning to build isos with -proposed? | 02:41 |
| darkxst | or should gdm not have gone into proposed? | 02:46 |
| jbicha | darkxst: I'm pretty sure uploads at this point are supposed to go to -proposed | 02:57 |
| jbicha | what are the pros/cons of building with -proposed to ensure we get the gdm update? | 02:58 |
| darkxst | pros - there are atleast 4 bug fixes | 02:58 |
| darkxst | cons - you may pull in unrelated broken packages | 02:59 |
| darkxst | gnome-shell package also fixes a few pesky bugs | 03:00 |
| darkxst | i.e. user switching is essentially broken without the updates from proposed | 03:01 |
| jbicha | gnome-shell is in quantal already | 03:01 |
| jbicha | I'll probably build with -proposed because I'm worried about upgrading gdm | 03:02 |
| jbicha | after upgrading, I logged out and my login screen didn't come back...even though I tried sudo service gdm restart; stop; start, etc. and I just had to reboot | 03:03 |
| jbicha | I don't know how common that issue is, but gdm scares me because it's currently fairly fragile | 03:04 |
| darkxst | I have not hit that | 03:07 |
| darkxst | but I am convinced there is an upstart issue causing problems with restarting gdm | 03:07 |
| darkxst | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/1043077 | 03:09 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1043077 in upstart (Ubuntu) "upstart restarts DM to quickly" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 03:09 |
| darkxst | also this is fixed in gdm 3.6.1 which I have hit a few times https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=685988 | 03:11 |
| ubot5 | Gnome bug 685988 in general "Unable to unlock the screen after locking it, session state is closing" [Normal,Unconfirmed] | 03:11 |
| DangerM | hi hi | 03:18 |
| darkxst | jbicha, so essentially it is that last bug and classic/unity mode user switching | 03:20 |
| darkxst | and shutdown/restart in gdm fallback | 03:20 |
| darkxst | DangerM, hi | 03:20 |
| DangerM | hey bro | 03:21 |
| DangerM | hey jbicha | 03:21 |
| darkxst | jbicha, actually not entirely sure about the unlocking bug, seems to be systemd related | 03:22 |
| darkxst | but I have had issues unlocking at times | 03:23 |
| darkxst | robert_ancell, did you ever see this bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/upstart/+bug/1043077 | 03:25 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1043077 in upstart (Ubuntu) "upstart restarts DM to quickly" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 03:25 |
| darkxst | jbicha, I wonder if we should add a short section to the release notes on how to get basically to ubuntu GNOME edition, without actually reinstalling? | 03:37 |
| darkxst | i.e. dist-upgrade, add the meta package, enable gdm etc | 03:38 |
| jbicha | uh, has anybody tested that? | 03:42 |
| jbicha | I think I'd rather people did a clean install (but they can keep their /home) | 03:45 |
| jbicha | to get the full effect, they'd need to set gdm as default & not have ubuntu-settings installed (but that's a dependency of ubuntu-desktop) | 03:46 |
| jbicha | and they'd have firefox, thunderbird, & libreoffice as default | 03:47 |
| darkxst | I kind of tested it, apart from removing firefox, thunderbird and libreoffice | 03:48 |
| darkxst | obviously a fresh install is better, but many people possibly won't bother | 03:50 |
| darkxst | whereas people seem happy to paste in random commands off the interwebs! | 03:51 |
| jbicha | ok, you can try adding that description to the release notes if you like with some kind of caveat that it's not quite the same as a fresh install | 03:52 |
| DangerM | this is true | 03:55 |
| DangerM | but installing gnome AND removing unity is patchy at best | 03:55 |
| DangerM | so anything below medium intelligence PC user and they've buggered their install beyond repair | 03:55 |
| DangerM | and when I say patch I mean dependancies and needed files change from one build to the next and its hard to keep tabs on them from my experience. | 03:56 |
| jbicha | no, we're not going to recommend they remove unity | 03:56 |
| DangerM | Oh just install Gnome ontop of the ubuntu/unity install | 03:56 |
| DangerM | yeah thats pretty straightforward | 03:56 |
| DangerM | few apt-get commands and dpkg-reconfigure and you're off | 03:57 |
| DangerM | bit messy though | 03:57 |
| darkxst | well we can handle most of it with dpkg --set-selections | 03:59 |
| darkxst | but they will need to reconfigure gdm, unless we remove lightDM (which probably wouldn't do) | 04:00 |
| DangerM | Or you're not writing a howto you're building an installer | 04:00 |
| DangerM | I see | 04:00 |
| darkxst | no it will be a 2 liner howto I guess | 04:01 |
| darkxst | its a little to late to be building an installer! | 04:01 |
| DangerM | Lol true however its not going to be a "clean" Gnome install | 04:02 |
| DangerM | but anything that builds more traction to switching to the remix can't be bad I guess | 04:02 |
| darkxst | jbicha, http://paste.ubuntu.com/1284355/ that should be enough right? | 04:10 |
| jbicha | yeah, but I'd just use apt-get | 04:19 |
| jbicha | good night! | 04:19 |
| darkxst | this basically works.. but is a little messy! https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/ReleaseNotes/12.10 | 04:53 |
| darkxst | see 'upgrade' section | 04:54 |
| Guest96819 | hello | 10:48 |
| Guest96819 | does anyone knows where i can choose my keyboard model in gnome 3.4 ? | 10:48 |
| jbicha | darkxst: looks like we don't have to use -proposed after all for gdm :) | 13:26 |
