[00:00] What would make Nautilus open with hidden files visible by default? [03:41] anybody offhand know what to run in terminal to bring up the printers dialog window? [03:41] mine is crashing immediately when I select a printer to add. I want to run it in term to see if there's an obvious error. [03:42] lpr? [03:42] cat filename > /dev/lp [03:42] I don't know what that is [03:43] check out the lp / lpr command for printing. [03:44] lp and lpr launch nothing in terminal [03:44] I'm not familiar with them at all :( [03:47] roasted, you can get a printer panel with 'system-config-printer' [03:47] but its not the same panel that you would get in g-c-c [03:48] installing now [03:48] it's frustrating because the printer box crashes any time I try to add a printer [03:48] do you have printers installed? [03:49] yes, but I can't even add printers under g-c-c for some reason [03:49] what are you referencing when you say gcc [03:49] gnome-control-center (system settings) [03:51] so if you go into system settings and click printer, then add a printer, does yours crash too? [03:51] (also, system-config-printer let me add the printer successfully without issue) [03:51] 'add' and 'unlock' are greyed out currently ;( [03:53] what's funny is... now that I added a printer via system-config-printer, I can add more in gcc - printers [03:53] I deleted the printer and re-added it in gcc [03:55] ah, but remove --purge system-config-printer-gnome and it crahses all over again in gcc [03:55] sigh [03:55] maybe it needs that ;) [03:55] yep, reinstalled it but di dn't open it and added a printer in gcc without issue [03:58] ok, can you file a bug [03:59] it probably should be added to ubuntu-gnome-desktop [03:59] yeah I'm trying to find out where to post it now [03:59] alwyas so confusing imo [04:00] 'ubuntu-bug gnome-control-center' [04:14] thanks [04:14] reported - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1163674 [04:14] Launchpad bug 1163674 in gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) "Adding a printer crashes Gnome Control Center (System Settings)" [Undecided,New] [04:45] Salutations! [04:47] !bug #1163651 [04:47] bug 1163651 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu) "Gnome shell crashed with "apport" complaining about lack of memory to automatically analyse the problem " [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1163651 [04:49] jbicha: i hope you don't mind me subscribing you the this bug! [04:52] this issue got me confused. [04:54] I'm also thinking about uprading to 3.8 for testing , unless more debugging or a backtrace is needed for 3.6 . [08:52] sary, wouldn't worry about that if its a one-off [08:52] could have been anything that blew out memory usage [09:58] ricotz, hi [09:59] ok to copy these into staging? https://launchpad.net/~darkxst/+archive/js17 [09:59] g-s just has the periodic GC patch [10:00] and gnome-sushi is just a rebuild against gjs+js17 [10:06] darkxst, hi, yeah, do that [10:06] make sure the gnome-sushi version is higher than the gnome3 ppa one [10:07] and fix the gnome-shell changelog [10:07] oh, what happened to the newline, I wonder! === ubot5` is now known as ubot5 [10:39] ricotz, also there are a whole bunch of bugs that appear when systemd is installed, but none of the gnome stuff is built against it (g-s just has runtime detection) [10:39] maybe we should explicitly break that, if we are not going to use it [10:41] for example lock screen will break if gdm and accountsservice aren't built with systemd [10:41] (logind) [10:42] gnome-control-center can't 'unlock' anything [10:43] nautilus can't mount gvfs drives [10:46] I guess the list goes on and on, and this is all in the archives now (just not installed by default) [10:47] darkxst, the systemd package was very in flux and settled now, so it would be fine to look into using it [10:47] darkxst, but some problem might be caused due not syncing with ubuntu again [10:48] e.g. gdm doesnt include the latest raring changes [10:48] unlocking things in g-c-c seems to work here [10:49] so are gvfs mount in nautilus [10:49] ricotz, do you have libpam-systemd installed? [10:49] darkxst, no [10:50] try install that, and see all the bugs [10:50] all of which go away once I install my logind packages from my ppa [10:51] ok [10:52] I think it comes down to a combination of run-time detection and packages build explicitly without systemd/logind [10:54] probably [10:59] and actually logind works really well from my testing, provided dbus/polkit (from pitti ppa) and the few things in my ppa, are build against it [17:39] hello friends [17:39] anybody having their entire GUI crash when they open Nautilus for a 2nd time on 13.04 with Gnome3 PPA? 3.8.0.1 === ChanServ changed the topic of #ubuntu-gnome to: Ubuntu GNOME Development & Support | Our first release, 12.10, is out!

Would the download be the same as the daily-build from the April 2nd? [18:12] Duplicated the crash on a Macbook Pro with both OSS Nouvea driver + Proprietary Nvidia driver, along with a separate ultrabook with Intel GPU. Filing bug now. [18:22] new finding - it only happens if Nautilus is the only active window. hmm.

[Undecided,New] [18:56] camelinahat: I just asked in #ubuntu-release so it's being worked on [18:59] jbicha: Awesome thanks. I know in my virtual machine when I installed the daily build from yesterday, then installed the gnome3 ppa, gdm failed to completely load (it would show the background but not progress any further). I wanted to try the beta2 build and see what kind of details I can get before saying too much. But it was after a clean install. [19:01] camelinahat: did you use dist-upgrade? I've heard of several people that didn't do that who had problems [19:02] jbicha: Nope. Downloaded the daily image. Erased entire disk during install. once installed did sudo apt-get update/update. Then added the gnome3 ppa (not staging). Another update/upgrade and gdm doesn't complete loading after reboots [19:04] camelinahat: ok, you need to use sudo apt-get dist-upgrade after adding the GNOME3 PPA [19:05] jbicha: Hmm okay I'll give that a try too. Thanks. [19:13] jbicha: Thanks that seems to have corrected it. [19:23] if I put the gnome3 ppa on a 12.10 box would I get past gnome 3.6? [19:24] roasted: Nope. See: https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3?field.series_filter=quantal (You'll just get more complete 3.6) [19:38] thanks. I'll just have to be patient. I'm loving 3.7+ but everyday in 13.04 in hitting a new bug. :P [20:03] roasted: :) you got that right ...

[21:59] unpacking and installing .. [22:00] I haven't had a battery icon on any system since 3.6. I almost feel ike it's an add-on package that I'm forgetting or something. [22:34] Going,going ...

[22:56] roasted, I have a battery indicator here [22:56] are you on 13.04 with Gnome3 PPA? [22:56] roasted, yes + staging [22:57] I wonder if staging brought it back. [22:57] I'm only running Gnome3 [22:57] I haven't seen a battery indicator since the 3.6 days [23:01] roasted, looks like dbus interface was renamed [23:01] probably it will work if you install gnome-settings-daemon via staging [23:01] or, if I just add staging itself? [23:01] roasted, yeh thats what I meant [23:01] let me try that. I can always ppa-purge it [23:04] roasted: I forgo to mention that my laptop battery is is dead, and it's running on AC power . [23:08] http://imgur.com/DSxNw1N [23:10] you're missing the battery icon... [23:10] so, this internal error i got .. is about evolution-calender-factory .. should i report it!

[23:27] lock is under privacy [23:27] brightness under power [23:27] I have no brightness under power... [23:32] I do have both. [23:33] maybe it's just my macbook. [23:33] I'll add staging to my toshiba and see. [23:34] nice, software center is crashing on startup on my toshiba. [23:34] looks like there are few changes in 3.8, but overall it's an amazing improvements.

I've had linux on 100% of the HDD on iMacs and they've been absolutely fine [23:53] darkxst: I thought about that, but on Unetbootin website it's stated that the tool will only boot on PC's not mac's . [23:53] oh [23:54] I've also tried with another GUI tool linux for mac .. didn't work . [23:58] I'm just not quite sure what am doing wrong to dd the iso on mac! i mean i managed to dd ubuntu 12.04 on the exact mac to the same usb drive .. and this is how i got ubuntu installed on this old Dell laptop. [23:59] and it's also mentioned that the start up creater won't make a bootable usb stick either.
