| ockhamwasright | Hello | 15:55 |
| roasted | hello | 15:56 |
| roasted | Is there a way to remove the black box that comes up when you change workspaces with CTRL ALT up/down? I find it hangs around on the screen a hair longer than I'd truly prefer. | 15:56 |
| ockhamwasright | Do you know how to change the default startup background? | 15:56 |
| roasted | ockhamwasright: I am unaware offhand, besides of course changing the wallpaper itself, which doesn't sound like what you want. | 15:56 |
| ockhamwasright | No. I've changed the background to a very pleasant selection, but on startup and shutdown, I am still plagued with the hideous default wallpaper. | 15:57 |
| roasted | aw, I dig the blue stripes :P | 15:57 |
| ockhamwasright | Its like an explosion at a tacky factory ... | 15:58 |
| roasted | better than the purple and blue swirly thing you see on KDE (not trying to pick on KDE, but it was a pleasant change when I came to Gnome) | 15:58 |
| ockhamwasright | No, I totally LOVE gnome - vastly improvement on any other Ubuntu I've used | 15:58 |
| ockhamwasright | I may have a look at startup scripts. Thanks ... :) | 15:59 |
| bjsnider | startup background is provided by plymouth | 17:17 |
| Primit1v3 | is there a problem with the d/l sites for ubuntu gnome??? | 20:46 |

| darkxst | jbicha, do we want to keep the fallback greeter in gdm? | 21:55 |
| jbicha | my opinion is no | 21:57 |
| jbicha | - it's been removed in 3.9 | 21:57 |
| darkxst | jbicha, is actually removed in 3.8.3 | 21:58 |
| jbicha | - if someone's hardware/drivers cause gdm to be painfully slow, then both the GNOME or GNOME Classic sessions offered in Saucy will be painfully slow too | 21:58 |
| jbicha | (it was restored in 3.8.3.1 because that was an accident) | 21:59 |
| jbicha | I instead recommend lightdm-gtk-greeter for those computers | 21:59 |
| darkxst | oh I see | 22:01 |
| roasted | why are you guys so awesome | 22:01 |
| darkxst | jbicha, right, currently its kind of hard to even use the fallback greeter... | 22:09 |
| darkxst | jbicha, lets go straight to gjs 1.37.4 | 22:47 |
| darkxst | I will prepare updates in a bit | 23:03 |
| roasted | :) | 23:14 |
| jbicha | darkxst: do you know whether cinnamon will work with that? | 23:18 |
| darkxst | jbicha, just needs one small patch | 23:19 |
| darkxst | gjs 1.37.4 is largely just bug fixes and JS17 cleanup/optimisations | 23:19 |
| darkxst | there is one small api change as part of the improved logging (see packages on gnome3 ppa) | 23:20 |
| roasted | do you guys use the Gnome VMs to aide in testing? | 23:20 |
| darkxst | roasted, I run jhbuild for upstream testing | 23:21 |
| roasted | darkxst: is that different than ostree? | 23:21 |
| roasted | darkxst: I spoke to a Gnome dev who said they have (or will have) a Gnome VM that is bleeding edge which contains everything uploaded by git. | 23:21 |
| darkxst | yes | 23:21 |
| roasted | darkxst: said Gnome devs of different distros and devs of extensions can use it to test ahead of time | 23:21 |
| roasted | instead of waiting for 3.10 to get released and THEN begin testing, etc | 23:22 |
| darkxst | they do release VM's from time to time | 23:22 |
| darkxst | and probably those images use ostree | 23:23 |
| roasted | I see. I was just curious. | 23:23 |
| darkxst | jbicha, cinnamon is actually broken even with gjs 1.36 | 23:42 |
| jbicha | ok | 23:44 |
| jbicha | which shows that no Ubuntu developer cares about whether it works | 23:45 |
| darkxst | and that no actually uses it, since I can't find any bug | 23:46 |
| jbicha | maybe by beta 1 or 2 | 23:46 |
| darkxst | maybe bug 1180638, but it had no apport info or logs | 23:48 |
| ubot5 | bug 1180638 in cinnamon (Ubuntu) "blank desktop at login" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1180638 | 23:48 |
| darkxst | basically needs to be ported to Gio.dbus | 23:54 |
