pittiLaney: indeed; the real upower does it, so if your program under test listens to them, emit them06:44
pittiLaney: mocks don't do that automatically (they are only mocks, not reimplementations)06:45
sil2100Great...08:15
sil2100I upgraded my system yesterday and today again I cannot get lightdm started08:15
sil2100Need to find out what upgrade causes my black-screen-on-start08:16
didrockssil2100: your system is weird08:21
* didrocks never has this kind of issues08:21
sil2100didrocks: I already once had this very same issue after upgrading lightdm - I downgraded and it worked08:26
didrocksyeah, there was an issue with it08:27
sil2100There was even a bug with that, I thought it got fixed08:27
didrocksbut I just upgraded yesterday evening as well08:27
didrocksand no issue08:27
sil2100Ok, let me reboot and check if I fixed it08:30
sil2100brb08:30
sil2100Right, so it seems me and the new lightdm just hate eachother08:33
didrockssil2100: you reverted it?08:39
didrockslast new lightdm was the 04/1208:40
seb128good morning desktopers!09:00
ali1234morning!09:01
ali1234i have a question: what does the forking of the gnome-control-center mean for bug 1074314?09:02
ubot2Launchpad bug 1074314 in indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) "indicator-datetime configuration panel only works in Unity session" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/107431409:02
ali1234will things get better or worse?09:02
seb128define better?09:03
seb128g-c-c doesn't have support of external panels, so it's not going to work there09:03
ali1234better = the configuration panel will start working correctly on other desktops09:03
seb128it's going to keep working like now with u-c-c09:03
ali1234but will it work in xfce?09:03
Laneymorning09:03
seb128there is no reason it shouldn't work on xfce09:03
seb128that should already be working today09:04
ali1234there is one reason: the .desktop has "OnlyShowIn=Unity"09:04
seb128Laney, hey, how are you09:04
seb128oh09:04
seb128well, it's easy to drop that, or add XFCE09:04
didrockssil2100: did you see my questions?09:04
seb128nobody asked us to do that so far09:04
ali1234if you remove this line, it works correctly in all other desktops, including gnome 3 (as of when that bug was reported anyway)09:04
seb128"including gnome 3"?09:05
seb128you don't want the UI to be displayed there09:05
seb128since they don't use the indicator09:05
ali1234yes, you do09:05
ali1234gnome-panel does09:05
Laneyfallback / panel09:05
ali1234but you can't configure it09:05
Laneyseb128: decent thanks, you?09:05
seb128Laney, I'm good thanks09:05
seb128oh, right09:05
larsuhi Laney!09:05
seb128well, it would be buggy under shell09:05
Laneyhey larsu!09:05
seb128ali1234, so, yeah, I guess the fork is going to make things better09:06
seb128gnome-shell is going to use g-c-c09:06
seb128and we can drop the OnlyShowIn09:06
ali1234yes, but shell doesn't use indicators... so anyway, it's my understanding that it's set up this way purely to prevent each desktop from showing multiple datetime applets09:06
seb128so u-c-c works for all other desktops09:06
ali1234cool :)09:06
ali1234so gnome-panel folks are going to be in a pickle, unless they set it to use u-c-c, which frankly probably is their best option09:07
ali1234but everyone else will be fine09:07
seb128right09:07
seb128well the gnome-panel is an Ubuntu session09:07
seb128it has indicators and stuff09:07
seb128so they should probably use u-c-c09:08
ali1234yeah09:08
sil2100didrocks: with the downgrading?09:10
sil2100didrocks: yes, I had to downgrade to 1.9.3 sadly09:10
sil2100didrocks: I remember having 1.9.4 break my screen as well09:11
didrockssil2100: did you open a bug with it?09:11
didrocksping robert?09:11
sil2100didrocks: there was a bug opened for that already, let me try and find it09:12
seb128hey cpp hackers, can one of you help me with a stupid question? :p09:32
seb128http://paste.ubuntu.com/6560412/09:32
seb128what's the best way to make cairoSurface() and free_pixmap() work on l5209:33
seb128copy those function in private:?09:33
larsufree_pixmap should just be forward declared (or defined before the class)09:35
larsuand for cairoSurface() I'd simply access the m_surface directly, since that's what the function does anyway09:36
seb128larsu, e.g http://paste.ubuntu.com/6560437/ ?09:37
larsuyep09:38
seb128larsu, that seems to work, thanks09:38
tjaaltonupgraded to trusty but kbd layout is wrong although the capplet shows it's 'fi', locale is right as well09:41
tjaaltonseems to be 'us'09:41
tjaaltonthe layout list shows the broken one as 'suomalainen' (translated), adding 'Finnnish (classic)' fixes it09:46
seb128tjaalton, seems like an xorg bug :p09:49
tjaaltonhow come?09:49
seb128tjaalton, joke aside we didn't change anything there, config/indicator/... since saucy09:49
seb128tjaalton, just trying to kick the problem in your direction ;-)09:49
seb128I hate keyboards09:50
tjaaltonsure :)09:50
seb128that shouldn't be so complex/buggy of a stack09:50
tjaaltonworks on my wife's session09:50
seb128I've no idea what is wrong09:50
seb128we didn't change the code09:50
tjaaltonme neither09:50
seb128those are the same packages than in saucy09:50
seb128did you upgrade from saucy?09:50
tjaaltonyes09:50
seb128:/09:50
seb128I'm half joking when I say it's an xorg bug btw09:51
seb128since our side didn't change...09:51
tjaaltonours didn't change much either09:51
seb128is gnome-settings-daemon working/running?09:51
tjaaltonand it's working fine for my wife09:51
tjaaltoner, changing the session seems broken09:52
tjaaltonmy session died when switched over to the other09:52
tjaaltonhrm, now both layouts work for me as well09:52
tjaaltonjust wondering where the translated entry comes from, since it's not on the list when adding a new one09:54
tjaaltonanyway, not an issue anymore.. went away09:54
tjaaltonlooks like my xserver crashed on switch, nice09:55

xnoxLaney: i find all dbus bindings at various levels of support. e.g. libdbus, dbus gobject/qt/python (upstream), dbus-GIO (c/gir/python), dbus-qt (C++/declarative)13:40
xnoxLaney: try python GIO/gir, does that give you introspection? or Qt's bindings.13:40
LaneyI'm using dbusmock, so it's dbus-python all the way13:41
Laneypatching it in now ;-)13:41
LaneyI wonder if this is too dirty :-)13:54
Laneyparse introspection data, find interface node, iterate properties (guessing their types!), patch them in13:55

seb128pitti, hey, I would appreciate if you could review https://code.launchpad.net/~laney/ubuntu-system-settings/tests-mock-upower/+merge/198625, you have more experience than me with those mockings18:00
chrisccoulsonseb128, re firefox, yeah, someone just needs to upload the new beta ;)18:03
seb128chrisccoulson, new beta? I though 26 was stable, you uploaded to other pockets... what was preventing to dput to trusty as well?18:03
Laneypitti: also, related - I noticed that dbusmock properties added with AddProperty always get 'v' from dbus.lowlevel.Message.guess_signature(message) - can you think how to solve this?18:04
chrisccoulsonseb128, i always skip the release, and just go straight to the next beta. 27b1 is out already18:04
seb128chrisccoulson, well, if you are busy, having the stable seems like little work and better than having a beta not building stucked in proposed18:04

billqhello.  i'm having problems with recently upgraded 13.10.  login screen works but after login i get some "system program problem detected" dialogs and none of the menu/status bars come up, just cursor and background.  tried reinstalling lightdm, ubuntu-desktop, and some others.  no help.20:24
qenghobillq: I'm sorry to hear that. Is it the same if you log in as guest?20:29
billqapparently it had something to do with nvidia drivers and X ... installing bumblebee fixed the problem ... but it has been working fine before the upgrade, and gave no indication that there was a driver problem, so i think that should be considered a bug.20:56
qenghobillq: when the "system problem detected" dialogue, that is the way to report a bug.21:09
* qengho afk.21:15
* robert_ancell is counting the days until quantal and raring hit end of life22:57
xnoxwell, raring will be first to go =)22:59
Fudgewhy Raring?23:38
sarnoldFudge: the support period for raring, saucy, and other "intermediate" releases was changed to nine months; see e.g. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-announce/2013-April/000171.html23:40
Fudgeah understood, thank you23:41
