seb128didrocks, no, but I didn't upgrade today yet09:37
didrocksjibel told me he's seeing this on ati, intel, and I can reproduce09:40

Laneyppa unity or archive?09:40
didrocksarchive09:40
Laneylet me try then, just dist-upgraded09:40
Laneyyeah, got it09:41

Laneynvidia09:42
didrocksok, we got all covered09:42
didrocksintel, ati, nvidia09:42
didrocksbryce: FYI ^ Can you please have a look at it and we should really have the unity tests running before pushing the xorg packages? (if xorg is really the culpurit here, which seems really likely)09:43

ubot2Launchpad bug 1050358 in emesene (Ubuntu) "emesene crashed with SIGSEGV in tupledealloc.24592()" [Critical,Confirmed]13:50
pittisbte: nobody maintains the old static bindings any more, I'm afraid; I guess you need to track it down yourself13:51
sbtepitti, it's also in pygobject13:52
sbtethe exact same bug13:52
pittiso, for the pygobject developers it would certainly be helpful to reduce the crash to a small reproducer13:53
pittiwhich doesn't involve creating an MSN account, installing emesene, debuggin the old static bindings, etc.13:53
rvr_chrisccoulson: When is Firefox 17 going to be released in Quantal?14:09

kenvandineugh14:18
kenvandinethat hasn't happened to me in a while14:18
kenvandinepitti, did you add that accounts before like beta2?14:19
pittikenvandine: very plausible14:19
kenvandinetry removing them and adding again14:19
kenvandinethat bug was fixed14:19
pittibut it was rather quiet for some months, it just started nagging again today14:19
pittikenvandine: ok, will try14:19
kenvandineand... i think part of it was to store something different14:19
kenvandinehumm... could be a sign of something changing on google's side too14:19
pittiI'll try to remove/re-add jabber as well; empathy keeps showing an error on opening14:20

seb128jbicha, how are you?  do you know what's the status of the new ibus/g-s-d/g-c-c stack?14:41
didrocksseb128: I'm sure it's an excuse from desrt to work from the airport :p14:42
jbichaseb128: mterry was working on the appearance panel last week, and I don't know if anyone's started on the ibus indicator or keyboard indicator work14:42
desrtdidrocks: how did you know?!14:43
didrocks\o/14:43
jbichapersonally I'14:44
seb128jbicha, I checked out the vcs to play with that in the train the other day and the g-c-c packaging in the vcs is all broken, like patches don't apply, etc14:44
seb128jbicha, how did you get it to build at all in the ppa? do you have work you didn't commit?14:44
jbichaseb128: g-c-c builds fine here against raring w/ the desktop ppa14:47
jbicha(I have to log out for 15 min)14:48
seb128jbicha, lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-control-center/ubuntu patches don't apply though, weird14:48

Sweetsharkbdrung: I expected having to take care of those myself and filed the bugs most as notes to self. so it was a pleasant surprise to find one of them in 'fix released' ;)15:14
bdrungSweetshark: the sync request appeared on the sponsoring queue. :)15:15
Sweetsharkseb128: any good idea on how to handle bug 1079653 and bug 1079665 (both not yet in experiemental in that version, only in an older one)15:21

cyphermoxogra_: waiting for a few more small fixes from the contributor. If you want I can upload this in its current state to a PPA15:41
seb128Sweetshark, hey, just take the vcs code and get it sponsored?15:47
bcurtiswxj/w since a majority of work in previous cycles has gone into staying with GNOME, and this cycle we're sticking with what we have. Is there a area on the Desktop team that will get more focus now?16:08
seb128bcurtiswx, it's mostly "stop using GNOME fallback code for unity since GNOME will drop that in 3.8" and "improve performances of Ubuntu so it runs better on devices"16:10
bcurtiswxseb128, great thx. and hi :)16:10
seb128bcurtiswx, with continued efforts on improving our testing and quality16:10
seb128bcurtiswx, hey16:10
bcurtiswxseb128, how well do you know the plans for the nexus 7 ?16:12
seb128well enough, there is nothing too specific or no real "plan"16:12
seb128we have a bunch of blueprints with workitems16:12
seb128but it's basically "chase stuff that are eating cpu and/or using memory and improve them"16:13
bcurtiswxis it going to be its own package set, or everything is going into Ubuntu this cycle ?16:13
seb128we identified some targets already16:13
seb128like "don't make run services all the time if not needed"16:13
seb128there is no plan to do anything specific out of Ubuntu16:14
seb128it's all optimization work that will benefit laptops, etc as well16:14
seb128we will just have some tweaks on kernel, drivers, and maybe some gsettings key values16:14
bcurtiswxseb128, OK. I ask because I was given a nexus 7 to use towards this work, so beyond the wiki page of info I was trying to find out more.16:15
seb128oh, great16:15
seb128ogra_, ^ do you have pointers or extra documentation?16:15
Sweetsharkseb128: k. well, will make it a 0ubuntu1 then as rene might tweak them still. (I see rene next weekend anyway at the Munich Hackfest, maybe I get him to upload to experimental anyway.)16:37
seb128Sweetshark, yeah, take something under -116:39
seb128Sweetshark, you can do -1~ubuntu or something16:40
seb128or -0ubuntu1 works as well16:40

attenteoh right17:50
attentei just hit Ctrl+Space and it seems to switch17:51
attente你好17:51
seb128attente, right, I can enter some chinese glyphs but I don't see the popdown ui which has options17:51
attentepopdown ui?17:51
robruattente, cool, I can see those glyphs correctly in IRC. I wouldn't have expected that ;-)17:51

seb128ok17:56
seb128well in fact I'm testing the ibus 1.5 update and g-s-d 3.6 from the desktop ppa17:56
seb128so maybe it's buggy17:56
attentecan you try ibus-setup?17:56
seb128I need to go back to 1.4 to see how it was working17:56
jbichaseb128: you logged out of Unity and logged back in first, right?17:57
seb128jbicha, yes, I've that installed for 5 days, I rebooted a bunch of times17:57
attenteseb128: what do you see under the Input Method tab of ibus-setup?17:57
seb128attente, chewing17:58
seb128chinese - chewing17:58
attenteoh. weird17:59
seb128well, I added that one17:59

attenterobru: moved yet? ;)18:01
robruattente, two weeks!18:02
robruattente, this is my last week of work, then I took the next week off for packing/moving, then Nov 30th I arrive at the hostel in Victoria to begin looking for an apartment ;-)18:02
attenterobru: ah, guess you'll be missing Winnipeg :)18:03
robruattente, not even slightly ;-)18:03
jbichaseb128: chewing doesn't seem to do the pop-down; I don't know if it used to or not but pinyin works fine here in Unity or GNOME Shell18:03
seb128jbicha, attente: thanks, indeed pinyin works18:03
seb128damn chewing :p18:04

attentejbicha, seb128 correct!18:04

seb128enjoy!18:04
seb128jbicha, so, what bugs/feature is missing in the g-c-c 3.6 stack for you out of ibus indicator, keyboard indicator and the new appareance capplet that mterry just landed?18:07
seb128jbicha, just trying to figure what is remaining to do, I would like to land it this week, we can live without the keyboard indicator for a bit18:07
jbicha50_ubuntu_systemwide_proxy.patch needs to be rewritten18:09
jbichawe need to decide whether to rewrite or drop 60_ubuntu_nav_bar.patch18:10
seb128jbicha, I will have a look to 60_ubuntu_nav but dropping should be fine18:11
seb128is upstream doing anythink for the proxy? they don't have a way to set a default one?18:11
jbichafor g-s-d 3.6.3, 90_set_gmenus_xsettings.patch needs refreshing/rewriting18:12
jbichaseb128: I don't use a proxy but I believe our patch simply allows setting a proxy for all users18:16
seb128jbicha, ok18:17
seb128will look at the xsetting one18:17
seb128jbicha, hum, it seems like we could probably get something upstream for the proxy stuff, I guess that would be useful on other distros as well18:17
jbichaseb128: yes, their proxy panel is a bit incomplete; GNOME's region & language panel allows setting a system language so there is some precedent for that type of feature18:20
robrucan anybody point me at some documentation explaining the differences between compat 8 and compat 9 in debhelper?23:03
Laneyrobru: see the debhelper manpage23:03
