| roasted | attn: ubuntu gnome developers. I have a stupid yet serious question. I am getting a truckload of apport popups on 13.10. SHOULD I be reporting each and every single one? I feel like I get them even when the system is idle. | 03:59 |
|---|---|---|
| roasted | I don't want to overload the bug reporter with nonsense, but I also don't want to disregard apport if there are underlying bugs that might need eyes on them. | 03:59 |
| roasted | Just wanted to see what you guys thought so I could help to the best of my abilities. Thanks! | 04:00 |
| jbicha | roasted: there's 2 kinds of pop-ups, some open launchpad.net for you to report a bug, the others go to https://errors.ubuntu.com/ where they help developers see which crashes happen most often | 04:12 |
| jbicha | see also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker | 04:13 |
| jbicha | in the future there might be a button in activity-log-manager to automatically send some of those reports which would be nicer | 04:14 |
| roasted | indeed | 04:15 |
| roasted | I just don't want you guys to be offing anything I submit if it's as irritating as spam in your email | 04:15 |
| roasted | but like I said, I hate to overlook things as an end user if it'll help. | 04:15 |
| gone | hey | 05:28 |
| gone | aneone here | 05:29 |
| gone | ? | 05:29 |

| darkxst | ricotz, gtk 3.9 is really broken in VMware ;( | 05:42 |
| ricotz | darkxst, huh, how so? | 05:43 |
| darkxst | X is booting into low graphics mode | 05:44 |
| darkxst | and then just a blank screen after that dialog. | 05:44 |
| ricotz | this doesnt sound like a gtk problem too me | 05:48 |
| darkxst | ricotz, it goes away as soon as I purge staging | 05:48 |
| darkxst | the X logs themselves seem fine | 05:50 |
| ricotz | i see, any crash reports or output in session.log | 05:51 |
| darkxst | I don't get as far as logging in | 05:53 |
| ricotz | what session are you trying to start? | 05:54 |
| ricotz | i guess GNOME | 05:54 |
| darkxst | tried both gdm and lightdm | 05:56 |
| ricotz | ok, so did you at their logs? | 05:59 |
| ricotz | e.g. /var/log/gdm/:0-greeter.log | 05:59 |
| darkxst | gnome-session[1469]: Gdk-WARNING: gnome-session: Fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server :0 | 06:01 |
| ricotz | /var/log/gdm/:0.log ? | 06:04 |
| darkxst | it was normal I believe | 06:06 |
| darkxst | I will check again in a min | 06:06 |
| ricotz | brb | 06:06 |
| darkxst | ricotz, I just tested in a new VM and its now working | 06:28 |
| ricotz | darkxst, good ;) | 06:33 |
| darkxst | ricotz, what would you suggest with gnome-bluetooth api break? build gnome-shell without it for now? | 10:17 |
| ricotz | darkxst, yes, you don't want to deal with bluz5 | 10:21 |
| ricotz | darkxst, i am reverting two commits for that in my builds | 10:22 |
| darkxst | oh right, I see | 10:28 |
| darkxst | I suppose you revert commits before building git snapshots? | 10:29 |
| ricotz | darkxst, in this case, yes | 10:51 |
| darkxst | ok | 10:55 |
| ricotz | darkxst, i thought you were looking into other source while gnome-shell/mutter doesnt even need the newer gtk afaik | 10:57 |
| darkxst | to be honest I though there would be more deps on it, but at the same time, 3.8 is very buggy so... | 11:09 |
| wasanzy | I have ubuntu 13.04 and installed the Gnome desktop environment from the ubuntu software center, but when I go to extensions.gnome.org, I am told I don't have the latest gnome desktop installed so I can't install extensions, how can I solve that? | 12:54 |
| mgedmin | wasanzy, what browser do you use? | 12:56 |
| wasanzy | chromium | 12:57 |
| wasanzy | and also firefox | 12:57 |
| mgedmin | if I'm not mistaken, you get that error if your browser is missing the Gnome Shell Integration plugin (/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/libgnome-shell-browser-plugin.so; both firefox and chromium ought to pick it up) | 12:57 |
| mgedmin | can you check with about:plugins that this plugin is enabled? | 12:57 |
| wasanzy | how can I check? | 12:58 |
| mgedmin | well, if it's listed somewhere on that page | 12:58 |
| wasanzy | on the about plugin? chromium or firefox? | 12:58 |
| mgedmin | both support about:plugins, IIRC | 12:59 |
| mgedmin | chromium definitely does (it changes the URL to chrome://plugins) | 12:59 |
| wasanzy | is enabled on chromium, checking firefox | 13:00 |
| mgedmin | okay, so it is enabled | 13:01 |
| mgedmin | then maybe you're trying to install an extension that wants gnome-shell 3.8? ubuntu 13.04 ships gnome-shell 3.6 | 13:02 |
| mgedmin | there's a PPA where you can get 3.8 | 13:02 |
| mgedmin | see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RaringRingtail/ReleaseNotes#Ubuntu_GNOME | 13:02 |
| mgedmin | (it has a link) | 13:03 |
| wasanzy | none of the extensions acutally allows me to install it | 13:03 |
| mgedmin | that is interesting | 13:03 |
| wasanzy | sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3 ? | 13:04 |
| mgedmin | FWIW I'm using ubuntu 13.04, with gnome-shell 3.8 (from that ppa, yes) | 13:04 |
| mgedmin | extensions work for me in chromium | 13:04 |
| wasanzy | ok | 13:04 |
| wasanzy | interestinly, after upgrading gnome, on the extensions page, no button is provided for me to install a plugin | 13:52 |
| mgedmin | the plugin is shipped in the distro, by the gnome-shell package | 13:55 |
| mgedmin | I wonder if you need to restart chromium after apt-get dist-upgrading gnome-shell... ? | 13:55 |
| wasanzy | I restarted the whole system | 13:56 |
| wasanzy | how do I get the list of extensions that are installed? | 15:16 |
| wasanzy | hello still not getting the extensions, how do I know the version of Gnome installed? | 15:35 |
| bennypr0fane | hello, updates is offering my an upgrade for Gnome shell: 3.8.2-1ubuntu2~raring1 installed version is: 3.8.2-1ubuntu2~raring2 is it just me, or is this actually a *downgrade*? | 21:01 |
| bennypr0fane | and should I do it? I may have triggered it by a manual apt-get update | 21:10 |
