| ali1234 | when i plug in my webcam the output volume on my soundcard changes. how can i debug this? | 11:27 |
|---|---|---|
| ali1234 | /lib/udev/rules.d/90-alsa-restore.rules looks like a good place to start | 11:28 |
| ali1234 | found it. the udev rule is actually broken | 12:14 |
| ali1234 | RUN+="/usr/sbin/alsactl nrestore $attr{number}" - but $attr{number} is unset here, so it restores the volume on all cards instead | 12:15 |

| YOURBESTFRIEND | hello? | 21:41 |
| YOURBESTFRIEND | I'm trying to fix some bug | 21:42 |
| YOURBESTFRIEND | I need help | 21:43 |
| YOURBESTFRIEND | this is the channel for One Hundred Papercuts, right? | 21:59 |
| ochosi | robert_ancell: ping | 23:02 |
| robert_ancell | ochosi, hello | 23:03 |
| ochosi | hey! | 23:03 |
| ochosi | i quickly wanted to ask you something about lightdm, greeters and powermanagement | 23:03 |
| ochosi | i would like to set the timeout for the monitor to shut off (dpms off) to a lower value if lock_hint=true | 23:04 |
| ochosi | is there a sensible way to implement that on the greeter-level, or is it something that would have to go in lightdm? | 23:04 |
| robert_ancell | it would have to be in the greeter level | 23:04 |
| ochosi | ok | 23:05 |
| ochosi | i haven't really looked into setting these kind of settings yet, so far i've only managed to force it to blank | 23:05 |
| robert_ancell | there's no code in liblightdm-gobject for this at the moment. If there's an appropriate X api (xrandr?) to wrap we could put some there | 23:05 |
| ochosi | yeah, haven't really investigated properly | 23:05 |
| ochosi | i was just wondering whether the greeter *can* even change these kind of X settings | 23:05 |
| ochosi | (cause this would go through the X11 screensaver extension i guess) | 23:06 |
| robert_ancell | ochosi, I think you have to use the X idle timer, which means you need some sort of service monitoring it | 23:06 |
| robert_ancell | service = greeter in this case or gnome-settings-daemon (which is what we do for unity-greeter) | 23:07 |
| ochosi | the problem i see is: if i change the timeout for X in the greeter (which doesn't seem problematic as long as the greeter is a lockscreen), if someone uses VT8 to log in (while the session in VT7 is locked), they would "inherit" that X setting, no? | 23:08 |
| ochosi | so their monitor would go into dpms off after 1 minute e.g. | 23:08 |
| ochosi | or is that assumption mislead because the login/session would reset these values? | 23:09 |
| robert_ancell | ochosi, each X server would have independent settings | 23:12 |
| ochosi | yeah | 23:12 |
| ochosi | but since lightdm opens another X server upon locking, the user logging in there would inherit those settings | 23:13 |
| robert_ancell | not sure what you mean by inherit, but the session would handle the idle timer for :1 and the greeter for :0 so the behaviour would be set by the greeter and session | 23:15 |
| ochosi | ok, what i meant is this. active session in vt7 -> lock (i.e. dpms timeout of 1min in greeter on vt8) -> other_user logs in on greeter on vt8 -> session on vt8 still has that timeout of 1min dpms | 23:17 |
| ochosi | i guess in your case things are really different cause you have the omnipresent gnome-settings-daemon | 23:17 |
| ochosi | we have xfce-session, which doesn't touch those X idle timer values | 23:18 |
| ochosi | (and which isn't present in gtk-greeter) | 23:18 |
| ochosi | robert_ancell: anyway, it's not your problem as i said myself now :) so thanks for the heads-up, i'll try to implement it in gtk-greeter somehow | 23:19 |
| robert_ancell | cool | 23:19 |
| robert_ancell | ah, I see what you mean | 23:19 |
| ochosi | just implemented fake transparency, so i think we can almost emulate the look of unity-greeter ;) | 23:19 |
