m4n1shcan anyone explain me this message?05:22
m4n1shGtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_calendar_select_month: assertion `month <= 11' failed05:22
m4n1sh2012-12-31 is surely a valid date05:22
m4n1shor does it need between 0 to 11?05:24
m4n1shvaladoc doesnt explain much05:24
RAOFIt's likely 0-based; so 0 is January?05:25
RAOFAnd 11 would be December.05:25
desrtmonth :05:25
desrta month number between 0 and 11.05:25
desrtquoth the docs05:25
desrtthat's some serious silliness there05:26
m4n1shah. I was looking on valadocs. That hardly has anything05:26
desrtuse the gtk-doc05:26
m4n1shyeah. The day can be 1-31, but month needs to be 0-1105:26
desrti'm all for 0-based counting, but that's a bit ridiculous05:27
desrti could understand if there wasn't some overwhelming concensus on month numbering05:27
m4n1shbut atleast for calendar and datetime based classes, it would be better to follow the general convention05:28
m4n1shpython's datetime does not count from 0 but from 105:28
desrtyou don't even need to appeal to python05:28
desrtfreakin' *G*Datetime uses 1 to 1205:29
m4n1shnow that is a big inconsistency05:29
m4n1shconverting all the time05:29

ricotzpitti, hi :)14:51

ricotzpitti, could you sponsor this package? http://people.ubuntu.com/~ricotz/soup/14:55
ricotzpitti, i hope you are fine14:56
pittiricotz: I am, thanks! how about yourself?14:57
pittiricotz: I can sponsor it, in some 10 minutes or so14:57

ricotzpitti, thank you14:57

tkamppeterSomeone knows how to get hardware-accelerated graphics on the Pandaboard with Raring (I have a working 1920x1080 desktop now, but very slow).15:30
ricotzpitti, :)15:38
* desrt wonders what the deal with fam is15:55
desrtit seems that we build our glib packages without fam support...15:56
smspillaztkamppeter: even if you have a working 1920x1080 desktop with hardware acceleration it will be quite slow16:00
smspillaztkamppeter: currently we use a technique on the desktop to reduce flickering to a minimum, but it effectively constitutes fill-rate abuse16:00
smspillazhardware that is often fill-limited like the sgx does not cope very well with this16:01
smspillazthe solution is to wait until those drivers support something like EGL_EXT_buffer_age or something16:01
smspillazsadly, there is not a whole lot of interest in implementing EGL_EXT_buffer_age on X11 because of some finer details about how redirection works16:02
chrisccoulsondesrt, no, i've not been watching that bug. should i?16:29
desrtchrisccoulson: would be nice to finally see that fixed....16:30
tkamppetersmspillaz, thanks, so there will be no solution soon? Another things is video play acceleration which does not seem to work, playing a 1080p Youtube video with XBMC is too slow and xbmc.bin takes ~180% CPU, making the impression that the video is handled totally by software.16:49

desrtseb128: hey.  can we chat for a second about fam?17:20
seb128desrt, hey, sure, what about it?17:21
desrtseb128: we have some vague ideas to use fam to monitor files in gio if we detect NFS is in use17:22
desrtcurrently glib in ubuntu is not built against fam...17:22
desrtseb128: fwiw, the gio module that links against fam is built as a separate .so17:26
desrtseb128: perhaps it would be nice to build glib against fam but then split the fam module off into a separate package as not to pull fam into the base system...17:26
desrtthen people who want to have reliable monitoring on NFS could install the module17:27
seb128desrt, it used to be like that, I need to check why it was turned off17:32
desrt  [ Josselin Mouette ]17:35
desrt  * Only build the libgio-fam package for hurd and kfreebsd, it is17:35
desrt    totally useless under Linux.17:35

cody-somervillecyphermox: Should LP #780602 be just about the memory leaks or about the functional issues with nm-applet? It doesn't appear the two are related.23:54
ubot2Launchpad bug 780602 in OEM Priority Project precise "nm-applet leaks memory and stops functioning after a while" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/78060223:54
cody-somervillecyphermox: The bug has mostly been focused on the memory leak issues but the SRU test case is for the "nm-applet becoming unresponsive to interactions and submenus showing an empty list" issue.23:55
cyphermoxit's both23:56
cyphermoxthe leak fixes in nm-applet will help, then there needs to be fixes in dbusmenu23:56
cyphermox(or whatever similar library can't keep track of the menus when I update them)23:57
cody-somervilleCool. There's some confusion by users due to Jame's comment. He says he is marking it fixed release (though it appears he actually changed it from fix committed to confirmed).23:57
cody-somervilleand then someone started unmarking duplicates because they interpreted that to mean the bug should only be about the memory leaks23:58
