brainwashthe xfce4-session package does not recommend "consolekit" anymore due to transition to systemd/logind, but it should recommend "systemd-shim" instead from now on (it does not yet). any thoughts?10:24

GridCubehey mister knome 13:09
GridCubei might try13:09
knomebeta 2 testing is up until thursday13:09
knomethen we need even more testing for RC13:09
GridCubeok thats the same zsynck all the way right?13:10
knomethe images shouldn't need zsync before thurday, they are freezed13:11
knomebut yes, after that, zsyncing will eventually get you the RC images13:11
GridCubeok so ill fetch todays image and keep them updated13:12
knomeGridCube, thanks, every test is much appreciated13:12
GridCube:) will try to do them13:12
elfycool - I'd hate to have to set forestpiskie on you :)13:13
GridCubethere is only a xubuntu amd64 iso to download 13:14
GridCubeis that correct?13:14
elfyatm the 32bit is not there - there's a problem at ubuntu somewhere13:14
GridCubehttp://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/303/builds13:14
GridCubeok13:14
knomethe build machine has gone offline, so yes, you'll have to wait for the 32-bit images13:15
GridCubeok, im fetching this iso for now :) this machine supports making 64bits vms :D 13:16
GridCubethats what im running at the moment13:16
knomebluesabre, you gonna run tests? :)13:21
bluesabrewhen I get home tonight, sure!13:22

olbihello guys, I have been running dailys updates and there are errors with USC which is crashed sometimes after installing software13:23
knomeolbi, have you filed a bug?13:23
olbinot yet, I need to check this with todays Beta, maybe it was fixed :)13:24
knomeno idea about that, but sure13:24
knomeif you do a clean install, report the installation to the iso tracker, please13:24
knome(with appropriate bugs found)13:24
olbiyes, of course13:24

GridCubeor, get mugshot P:13:30
knomeelfy, that should though. ask for details from bluesabre (unless you don't have yourimage.jpg and are just trolling :P)13:31
elfyI'd not troll in here :)13:31
knomeheh13:31
* elfy should check out mugshot really 13:32
knomeprobably13:32
knomeit allows you to control much more than just the profile image13:33

elfybluesabre: daily or stable? if you'd rather I installed the daily so I can test things if you want I'm happy to13:42
bluesabreelfy, your choice, not much dev happening on it at the moment, so they are probably the same right now13:43
elfyok - well I'll go for the daily one and if you want anything tested by 'just this guy' you can shout :)13:43

knomebluesabre, want to create a debdiff for micahg for the gmb stuff?13:52
bluesabreI thought he already mostly had one together?13:52
knomei didn't think anything :)13:53
bluesabregood idea13:53
bluesabreyeah, I'll see about throwing one together tonight13:53
knomethanks13:53
elfyI'll join in on that plan13:53
elfythe not thinking one - just in case you get any ideas ... 13:54
knomewe'll probably land that after B2, there's already only so much time to run that testing13:54
bluesabreyeah, if today is b2 freeze there's no way you'll see it for b2 :D13:57
knomewell there is but...13:57
knome:D13:57
knomethere's always ways to get stuff in13:57
bluesabredidn't you say the isos get locked today?13:58
knomesure... but don't you think there is a way to un(b)lock? :)13:58
knomejust not worth it.13:59
bluesabreits easier to imagine that there is not :)13:59
knomebut it's always possible13:59
knomelol13:59
knomewell, a rebuild should be a press of a button for you too, since you are in xubuntu-release13:59
bluesabreoh yeah13:59
elfykeep up :)14:00
* bluesabre has super cow powers14:00
elfybluesabre: you want me to report that help thing as a bug so it doesn't get lost?14:00
bluesabreelfy, yeah if you don't mind14:01
bluesabremight also try logging out of your session and back in14:01

GridCubeit works on 13.0414:29
GridCubejust tested it :)14:29
knomeoff for now15:09
ali1234i've got a weird glitch... a small square in the top left of the screen that sits above all windows except the panel15:24
GridCubecan  you screenshot it?15:26
ali1234http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFLenkPPwXM15:27
ali1234btw it is black on the left side because of the menu shadow15:30
GridCubemmm yes15:30
ali1234each time i open the menu it gets a little bit darker15:30
ali1234i notice the glitch itself has a shadow15:30
ali1234but it doesn't receive X input and especially xwininfo just passes through to the window behind15:30
GridCubemmm15:31
GridCubeand xkill? 15:31
GridCubewont kill it?15:31
ali1234it will kill whatever window is behind it15:32
ali1234restarting the panel makes it go away15:32
GridCubedo you know how to try to repeat it?15:33
ali1234no, i never notice it appearing15:33
ali1234i just notice it's there15:33
ali1234it has happened several times though15:34
GridCubeali1234, :) try and see if you can figure a way to repeat it please 15:34
ali1234it is hard to tell when exactly it happens because when it's a region that isn't redrawing... so it has perfect camouflage15:34
GridCubeyes15:34
GridCubei figure that much15:34
ali1234figuring out what owns it would help i think15:35
ali1234xfdesktop --reload doesn't make it go away15:35
ali1234ah i think i know exactly what it is15:38
ali1234yes15:39
ali1234it's the notification area (not indicators, the old gnome "tray" stuff)15:39
GridCube:D15:39
ali1234it's a 20x20 glitch because that is what size the notification icons are15:39
ali1234removing just the notification area from the panel made it go away15:40
ali1234and it appears when some java program makes a notification icon15:41
GridCubeali1234, please report a bug against it15:41
brainwashtry to disable the xfwm4's compositor15:41
brainwashisn't this a well known bug?15:42
ali1234is there some java program that makes a tray icon in the repos?15:42
ali1234http://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?id=816615:44
GridCubeali1234, what xubuntu version are you using?15:45
ali1234saucy15:45
GridCubemmm i understand that in saucy there is a new plugin indicator applet for gtk3 indicators15:47
ali1234yes there is15:47
GridCubeis the java application using this?15:47
ali1234no15:48
GridCubei see15:48
ali1234well actually that code is not in saucy yet15:48
ali1234but anyway, this is only with the legacy notification system aka system tray15:48
GridCubeyes, thats what i was thinking15:48
ali1234the plugin is called "Notification Area" (but it has nothing to do with the pop up alert bubbles)15:49
ali1234it's almost certainly a java bug anyway15:49
ali1234like the one where accessing the clipboard from java leaks a copy of whatever is on the clipboard every single time15:50
* GridCube doesnt know15:50
ali1234java is complete rubbish :/15:50
brainwashso it's not related to xfwm4's compositor?15:50
ali1234well it might only happen when compositing is switched on15:50
ali1234but that's irrelevant - everything else that uses notification icons works fine15:51
ali1234hmm i have an idea what it might be actually15:54
GridCubeis it a feature now that the current desktop background turns into the lightdm background?17:56
GridCubei mean is that expected?17:57
elfyexpected18:00
elfyGridCube: you seen the 32bit are there now18:01
GridCubeim doing the amd64 one18:01
GridCubei am assuming the image is the same as earlier18:01
brainwashGridCube: accountsservice is responsible for this behavior18:01
GridCubeok :) is that i made an image with gimp, saved it as png and used it as background and then when i logged out it was there :P18:02
ali1234yeah that's been a feature for a couple of releases for unity users at least18:13
ali1234dunno if anything special was needed for xfce, probably not18:13
Unit193Works in Rarin'18:15
GridCubenever noticed in raring18:16
GridCubebut then again i never use the login manager18:16
GridCubehad to install synaptic 'cos USC would not allow me to set up my proxy18:17
GridCubeproxies are the worst in xubuntu18:17
GridCubebesides the abiword and the sound indicator everything seems fine18:23
GridCubereported18:23
ali1234i use ssh and socks for proxying18:25
elfythanks GridCube 18:25
ali1234no particular setup needed, you do need a ssh account somewhere of course18:26
Unit193ali1234: You use polipo or the like as well?18:26
GridCubeyou cant use USC out of the box in xubuntu if you have a proxy18:26
ali1234no, i just type in the proxy settings directly to firefox18:26
GridCubei find it rather bad that ubbiquity doesnt ask you for networking setting to set up things properly from there, i remember that using the alternate iso you could do so18:27
Unit193Heh, sadly not everything I use will take a socks proxy.18:27
ali1234i only use proxying to evade blocked services, such as my mobile provider blocking irc and various chat programs18:27
ali1234and also i use it as a poor man's cloak18:27
ali1234so in practice this means i only proxy pidgin, and sometimes firefox18:28
Unit193libxfce4ui got tagged.18:29
bluesabrelibxfce4ui got tagged?  what does that mean?18:40
elfysomeone ran up behind it and shouted "You're it"18:40
bluesabre:D18:41
Unit193http://git.xfce.org/xfce/libxfce4ui/  means you don't have to roll from git head to get gtk3 indicators.18:43

davmor2haha19:01
elfynot sure you should be talking about me like that ... 19:02
elfy:)19:02
GridCubebut you do have organic photsensive receptors that took like 1.000.000.000 years to develope19:03
knomethey're aging as well, not brand new anymore19:03
elfyall that time to develop and 50 years to ruin them ... 19:10

Unit193Bleh, was going to actually build xubuntu-core and see what it'd really pull in from a mini, but more effort than I'd want. :P19:17

elfyknome: just realised there's no upgrade tests there for b2 - shall I add them - can't remember if it's likely to end up losing the exisiting b2 tests19:25
elfynobody else has them enabled 19:26
knomeelfy, that won't affect current tests since it's a different product19:37
knomeelfy, we could just run those with the RC19:37
elfyok - I'll remember to set them 19:38
knomei'd imagine they're enabled for all flavors then, but it's always good to double-check19:39
elfyyep19:39
knomei was about to say nice testing, but then i realized it's mostly you who did the tests19:39

* elfy hasn't ever really followed a bug that's got a bug fixed elsewhere19:44
elfythat sort of makes less sense than it did in my head ... 19:45
brainwashaccording to ochosi it might be fixable by adjusting the affected shimmer-themes19:46

brainwashcould it be added to the progress list?19:50
brainwashthe bug report I mean19:50
knomebrainwash, i talked with him earlier, but from the upstream bug i understood that the patch alone would fix most of the problems without touching themes19:57
knomethe latter isn't a very high-importance though? it doesn't really break anything, just throws a warning19:58
brainwashyes, an annoying warning :)19:59
knomesure, but still only a warning :)19:59
knomesetting as importance low19:59
brainwashthanks19:59
knomei'm guessing the first thing to do would be checking what happens if that override is removed - does that change the behavior20:00
knomeif not, then just remove it; if it does, how to apply that without throwing a warning20:00
brainwashI removed it and the warning does not show up anymore, kinda expected, because the update-notifier dconf key does not exist anymore and therefore can't be altered20:01
