elfyochosi: "can i have a screensaver (xscreensaver) and still use light locker for login?" our pqwoerituytrueiwoq friend ... 08:53
bluesabreelfy: nope08:54
bluesabreerr08:54
bluesabrewell, yes08:54
bluesabreif he wants to enter his password twice08:55
elfyhe might - he'd rather have something on the screen than a blank one - uses TV for monitor apparently08:56
elfyand hi bluesabre :)08:56
bluesabrehey elfy08:57
bluesabreit might be possible, but if he's doing something like that, just use xscreensaver08:58
elfyyea - remove lightlocker I guess08:58
jhenkegood morning09:12
elfyhi jhenke 09:12
elfybluesabre: your words are immortalised on the forum ... 09:14
bluesabreoh boy09:19
elfyI highlighted the 'err' 09:23
ochosimorning09:29
ochosielfy: he's probably mixing things up09:30
elfyhi ochosi 09:30
ochosihe's probably wanting to say "can i still use the greeter and use xscreensaver for locking"09:30
elfyentirely possible09:30
ochosilight-locker has nothing to do with login09:30
elfyyep - that will be a what do I call it thing I expect09:30
bluesabrehey ochosi: going to try release a fixed greeter now before I'm gone for the day09:31
elfyrather - I think what he's saying is then can I have a screensaver and still use light-locker09:31
ochosibluesabre: great stuff! i don't think we have any other bugs we can/want to fix for now and that one bug is nasty enough to warrant a release09:32
ochosialso, translations09:32
ochosielfy: right, that doesn't make too much sense then...09:32
ochosibluesabre: we should do another parole sprint and try to fix one or two more bugs and then do a release of that, maybe next week or so09:33
ochosibluesabre: or: could :)09:33
elfyochosi: yea - reading between the lines - he wants a 'picture' on the monitor - not a blank screen 09:33
bluesabreochosi: agreed09:33
bluesabreI'm going to do a round of bugfix releases this weekend, then we can try to hack on parole09:33
ochosibluesabre: that sounds great. well that or we try to figure out the lock-settings mess :)09:34
brainwashmugshot anytime soon too? :)09:34
bluesabreI don't suppose you had a chance to test the dvd fix?09:34
bluesabrebrainwash: today or tomorrow09:34
brainwashgreat09:34
bluesabrebrainwash: any particulars you want fixed for sure?09:34
ochosibluesabre: i asked around, ppl here don't have any video dvds :/09:34
bluesabreok, I'll hope for the best... it does work for me anyway :)09:35
ochosielfy: yeah, that's not in the scope of light-locker09:35
ochosibluesabre: yeah, it'll most likely be an improvement, even if it only works for some ;)09:35
elfyochosi: I know - so remove light-locker and install xscreensaver would work for him09:35
ochosielfy: exactly. probably i need to extend that post for x.org on locking and mention screensavers09:36
brainwashbluesabre: not sure, I pushed 3 branches which add some minor improvements (no lp reports)09:36
elfyochosi: yea, or I could 09:36
ochosianyway, gotta take off now09:36
elfyhave a good weekend :)09:36
ochosielfy: that'd be great, feel free to go ahead09:36
brainwashbluesabre: do you already have a solution for the file size issue?09:37
ochosithanks, i'll most likely come back quickly tonight and check in09:37
elfysomehow I knew you'd say that :p09:37
ochosi:)09:37
ochosihave a nice day everyone!09:38
brainwashcya ochosi 09:38

bluesabrebrainwash: yeah, I'm going to scale the image to 250px or something small09:38
brainwashhey elfy 09:38
brainwashbluesabre: ok09:38
bluesabrebtw, make some merge requests for your branches explaining them... otherwise, they look pretty good09:39
brainwashnothing special, and I was not sure if they are actually merge ready09:40

udzguruhello12:13
elfysame answer in here ;)12:13
udzguruno different question here probably ;) 12:14
elfythat said I'm lazy and tend to use synaptic 12:14
udzgurumy wireless indicator in the tray disappeared for no reason. starting nm-applet does not bring it back. any ideas? 12:15
udzguru(beforehand i killed all instances of nm-applet)12:15
elfyhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Roadmap/Specifications/Trusty/Gtk3Indicators12:15
elfylook at the indicators may fail to load bit :)12:16
udzguruok ... applying the changes ... then will reboot (due to a kernel update). will get back with more information afterwards. thanks for your help in advance!12:19
elfybrainwash: do you know of the top of your head if the old Ctrl+Esc shortcut to menu is being added for whiskermenu?12:31
elfyor indeed anyone else who is lurking ;)12:31

starratsJust curious did you devel folks get rid of 'workspaces' on the final Beta, I'm using it now.12:44
elfyjust booted the daily - that has 2 workspaces12:44
starratscouldn't find the 'daily'12:47
elfystarrats: middle click on the desktop - how many workspaces does that show you?12:48

elfybrainwash: thanks - I guessed it was in the pipeline - just checking :)12:52
elfyand I'm never really sure where to look either ... 12:52
elfyI guess if I kept links to the LP pages for people I'd probably find them there lol 12:53
elfystarrats: so how many workspaces when you middle click on desktop?12:54
starratsI have now 4 but can't get the 3 to move to the individual spaces 12:55
starratsthey're all in #1 workspace12:56
elfywhat? 12:56
elfyI completely don't understand that12:56
elfyhi lderan 12:56
starratsI have FF, TB mail and Hexchat all in the first workspace want to put them in individual workspaces12:57
elfyright click on the title bar and move them - or drag them 12:57
starratsok12:58
starratswill work on it in a bit must go help my gf atm12:59
brainwashwe've crippled the workspace usability a bit13:00
elfyhow?13:08
elfyI don't use it much so haven't really noticed much 13:09
brainwashworkspace switcher (panel) has been removed and some on-scroll functionality has been disabled13:10
elfyoic - the oh my you could accidentally shake while typing 1 and get 1111 workspaces thing :p13:11
brainwash100 is max13:11
elfyand the switcher can be added if people want it 13:11
elfybrainwash: I'm just quoting someone else :)13:11
brainwashno, not the settings dialog scroll problem13:12
elfyyes :)13:12

brainwashyeah, but ochosi does not want it to be changed ^13:14
elfyoh that - I see waht you're talking about now 13:14
brainwash:)13:14
elfyyep - I know - I Was confusing 2 issues there 13:14
elfyI forget we did that as I still haven't got that change and had to put it back13:14
brainwashjust created a new user and our default whiskermenu favorites add some clutter13:18
brainwashmaybe it's just me13:18
elfylooking in vm13:19
brainwashI prefer a clean and lightweight look13:19
elfywell ... 13:19
brainwashdon't agree? :)13:20
brainwashit's my first impression13:20
elfypretty sure the decision was to have in favourites what is in the slideshow - and it's easy enough to remove things13:20
brainwashyes, everyone can change whatever he wants13:20
elfymy default menu has completely different things on it 13:21
elfybrainwash: compare that to the app menu plugin13:22
brainwashthe classic app menu has a clean look13:22
elfythere is actually 1 less 'app' on the default whiskermenu 13:22
brainwashok, I don't want it to be changed (would be almost impossible anyway)13:24

brainwashhttps://bugs.archlinux.org/task/3885314:03
elfythen a second attempt to delete from the desktop doesn't get the warning14:05
elfyanyway - there we go - finally get something useful for it :p14:06
brainwashonly a warning message according to the arch report, but your system apparently freezes =S14:06
elfyyep14:06
elfyno apparently about it :D14:06
elfycan't find anything on bugzilla.xfce14:09
elfyI'll report it there 14:09
elfyor is the issue with gvfs14:09
brainwashgvfs, but thunar/xfdesktop might be causing the freeze by not handling the gvfs warning/error properly14:12
brainwashcan you check if thunar is also generating the warning?14:12
elfyreally don't want another damn account lol14:12
elfyI don't get the same issue when deleting in thunar - it is only from the desktop14:13
brainwashif yes and thunar does not cause any freeze, then there is something wrong with xfdesktop maybe14:13

brainwashat least we now have something to work with14:19
elfyyea14:19
dkesselbluesabre: your fix for the dvd playback issue works. i have verified with parole from your xfce ppa14:49
starratselfy and brainwash I did figure out how to work the new version of 'workspaces', I use them a lot considering this is Linux but I prefer the old way when they sat up on top and not using middle mouse button to get to each one.14:52
brainwashstarrats: it's the same thing, you can re-add the panel workspace switcher15:00
starratsah okay15:02
starratsgot it thanks brainwash15:06
bluesabredkessel, thanks a lot!16:20
dkesselwell thank you for fixing, bluesabre :)16:21
bluesabreI'll do a new parole release tonight, mugshot too16:22
dkesselbluesabre: regarding bug 1293151 - i debugged it a bit and found it only happens in the live session. still interested in finding the problem?16:25

bluesabreyeah, if we can figure it out, it will probably save some trouble down the road16:25
starratsgood, bad or indifferent that timed from when the screen goes black and have to put you password in on this last Beta is really a short time, not complaing just noticing16:34
brainwashstarrats: put your password to do what?16:48
brainwashunlock the session after it was inactive for 10 minutes?16:48
starratsaway form the laptop for a bit and then I comeback and te desktop/screen is black and I move the cursor a tad and I have to put my password back in to get back on16:49
starratslike I said really no big deal but it is quite fast or I'm slow in getting back, lol16:50
starratsyes brainwash16:51
brainwash10 minutes is the default timeout16:52
brainwashbut you can change it16:53
brainwashsettings manager > light locker settings16:53
starratsah okay but the 10 minutes is fine I was only commenting on it.  Love this final.16:54
starratswhen this is released, I hope a lot of folks will be thrilled with it, like I am.  Very good job by all who participated in this  build!16:56
dkesselbluesabre: i attached files to the menulibre bug. extra info: if i log out of the live session and re-enter the session, the menu is updated correctly17:12
Unit193Re: Xubuntu translations: 1. Well I'd hope everything is 100% English.  2. What translation should Libreoffice pull in when installed?  This sounds more like it's expecting you to know what language you want, and for you to install it.  3&4 see #1 :P  (But really, I think he's confused between git master and actual releases.)17:49
knomeyep.17:51
knomethough i guess he's saying we should pull translations from git master17:51
knome... which we should17:51
Unit193How?  As a quilt patch?  Or repack? :/17:53
knomei don't know how, but it would be good to have the latest translation state17:54
Unit193Maybe it's because I'm English only, but I'd normally say just follow the releases.17:55
brainwashUnit193: request a new upstream release :)17:56
Unit193Why?  If it's not major bug fixes or new features? :P17:57
knomeif we are carryinag a delta for package X, won't hurt to update with a new ubuntu version18:04

brainwashok19:33
NoskcajBut because universe, we can get stuff sponsored till final release freeze (with project lead approval)19:33
brainwashright, but we want it fixed as soon as possible, so there is more time left to test it :)19:34
brainwashtest the final product I mean19:34
dkesselelfy: upgrade test saucy -> trusty done19:36
brainwashNoskcaj: does the patch header and name matter when adding patches to a package?19:38
Noskcajbrainwash, not that much, but it helps to have good info19:39
brainwashwhat prefix should I use for a patch extracted from a git mirror for svn?19:40
brainwashabiword :P19:40

brainwashpackaging for my PPA is so easy, but officially releasing this is meh20:04
brainwashit needs to be done on the debian side20:05
knomehey micahg, should we poke the sponsors queue or are you going to upload things?23:12
Noskcajknome, There's enough stuff that a queue poke is needed anyway23:13
knomei'm talking about particular things i've asked him to upload; if you think there's something that needs to be in the sponsors queue, feel free to do the paperwork23:14
knomeand it'd be appreciated if that was "just done"23:15
