| starrats | good morning, my question is this, I had to totally re-install 14.04, had some problems with dist-upgrade, sent a pastebin.ubuntu.com and also to the launchpad, did anyone see it? | 12:36 |
| starrats | I think I took care of that problem but today as I was running the update/upgrade I got a not saying 1 package kept back and the package is this 'usb-modeswitch-data' what does this mean? | 12:38 |
| starrats | note/not | 12:38 |
| brainwash | starrats: it cannot be upgraded due to a dependency issue | 12:45 |
| starrats | well I did the update/upgrade successfully and when I went to dist-upgrade it said there were no upgrades and it said 1 package kept back and that package was the 'usb-modeswitch-data'. I did not get any other warning concerning any other errors. | 12:48 |

| starrats | yesterday I did get a warning that popped up about xscreensaver and xlockmore but that didn't show up at all today and late last night I continued the dist-upgrade thru pasckage manager and all went quite well | 12:50 |
| brainwash | we you asked to confirm the removal of xscreensaver? | 12:51 |
| starrats | don't know if it was removed, the little window that popped up during dist-upgrade said something about a restart, I did and then I did the package manager dist-upgrade and there was a little note that 55 pkgs wer not going to be installed but this morning there wasn't any alert on top by the clock/date but the pointer did freeze on me again and I just a hard shutdown on the laptop and then tried again and the pointer was not 'fro | 13:05 |
| starrats | zen', I need to know how to stop the 'frozen pointer' problem and freezes just as I want to put my password in. | 13:05 |
| starrats | I did send my problems to pastebin.ubuntu.com last night about my problems that occurred after I re-installed 14.04 | 13:12 |
| starrats | it was a copy of the terminal output | 13:13 |
| starrats | my question to someone here that can answer me is this. Did you see my pastebin.ubuntu on my install problems, lines 17 and 18 are the same as today, using apt-get install -f ? | 13:30 |
| bluesabre | starrats: link? | 13:36 |

| brainwash | starrats: please file a launchpad report and attach your terminal output to the report | 14:50 |
| starrats | brainwash: I filed a launch report thru pastebin.ubuntu.com last night and it's still the same. sorry for the late reply was downstairs making breakfast and helping my gf. | 16:13 |
| brainwash | starrats: pastebin.ubuntu.com is just a pastebin service and not an actual bug report | 16:16 |
| starrats | okay let me see if I can get it on launchpad | 16:17 |
| starrats | on the launchpad.net, where do I paste my terminal output, I see nothing about reporting a bug, sorry | 16:26 |
| brainwash | starrats: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ | 16:35 |
| brainwash | oh, the link for "Report a bug" in the top right corner seems to be broken | 16:36 |
| brainwash | it redirects you to the wiki page | 16:36 |
| brainwash | starrats: you can open a terminal window and run "ubuntu-bug <package>" instead | 16:37 |
| brainwash | Unit193: anything you want to ask? | 20:29 |
| Unit193 | Wsa kind of wondering how long apport retracing took.. | 20:29 |
| brainwash | in general? | 20:30 |
| brainwash | btw https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfwm4/4.11.1-2ubuntu1 | 20:30 |
| brainwash | "xubuntu seamless greeter to desktop transition" is now activated, hopefully we don't encounter any hardware/driver specific issues | 20:32 |
| brainwash | works fine here, restricted and open source AMD driver | 20:33 |
| ali1234 | Unit193: there's a queue for that... can be fast or slow | 20:34 |
| ali1234 | you can run it locally in a chroot with just a couple commands | 20:34 |
| Unit193 | brainwash: Something is crappy here. | 20:34 |
| Unit193 | ali1234: Ah, well then. :/ | 20:35 |
| ali1234 | http://www.piware.de/2011/08/apport-retrace-made-useful/ | 20:35 |
| ali1234 | might be a little outdated | 20:35 |
| brainwash | oh, worth a bookmark | 20:36 |
| brainwash | ali1234: bug 1056978 | 20:39 |
| ubottu | bug 1056978 in xfwm4 (Ubuntu) "Resizing windows by grabbing window borders is difficult" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1056978 | 20:39 |
| brainwash | so it got solved in metacity | 20:39 |
| brainwash | maybe the solution could be adopted | 20:40 |
| ali1234 | i tried to fix this | 20:40 |
| ali1234 | the frame drawing code is a huge mess in xfwm | 20:41 |
| ali1234 | and in the end, you can't make invisible windows in X that still receive input. it's just not possible. | 20:41 |
| ali1234 | i will look at how metacity did it | 20:41 |
| ali1234 | but i suspect it will be done in the compositor | 20:41 |
| brainwash | but isn't xfwm4 a fork or whatever of metacity? | 20:42 |
| ali1234 | sort of | 20:42 |
| ali1234 | but it was a long time ago | 20:42 |
| ali1234 | they are very different now | 20:42 |
| brainwash | ah, I see :/ | 20:42 |
| ali1234 | if anyone else wants to have a shot at this i'll be happy to provide help/mentoring | 20:44 |
| brainwash | you are one of the few people who are somewhat familiar with xfwm4 =S | 20:46 |
| Noskcaj | xfwm4 is now updated for greeter-desktop transition | 20:59 |
| ali1234 | thanks | 20:59 |
| ali1234 | hopefully if it works fine in the release it can be turned on by default | 21:00 |
| brainwash | Noskcaj: thanks :) | 21:01 |
| Noskcaj | the uploader changed it from cflags to cppflags, is that a problem? | 21:02 |
| ali1234 | i dunno. if it works, it works | 21:03 |
| ali1234 | it definitely shouldn't affect anything else | 21:03 |
| brainwash | Noskcaj: can you please mark bug 1258978 as wishlist? | 21:22 |
