seb128mvo, sun? I'm in Lyon, it's raining there06:12
mvo:) I am not, I'm just forced by circumstances to be one06:12
seb128I blame didrocks06:12
mvoseb128: haha, I get it06:12
mvoseb128: he is responsible for the rain ;)06:12

didrocksyou are mean guys06:13
didrockscome on, beautiful weather the whole week and now you are complaining about rain!06:13
seb128Saviq, rsalveti: hey, did you coordinate on the ubuntu-system-settings landing?06:45
rsalvetiseb128: no, was planning to respin it once my change lands, but then it got stuck temporarily because of a flaky test06:49
rsalvetiI'm in china this week, so my timezone doesn't help much, so that's why I just went ahead06:50
rsalvetiafter making sure it wasn't breaking anything in the other landing06:50
rsalvetias I thought this the other landing would land yesterday, but didn't happen06:50
seb128rsalveti, do you know why the suru changes didn't land yesterday?06:50
rsalvetiseb128: no idea06:51
seb128k06:51
seb128let's hope your landing doesn't create too much work for Saviq then06:51
seb128he's trying to land the suru transition for a while06:51
rsalvetiit shouldn't, should be migrating to propose in a few minutes06:51
rsalvetisorry, to release06:51
rsalvetinow that pitti retried the job06:51
seb128right, well it still means the silo needs a rebuild06:52
rsalvetiyup, I'm waiting it to migrate to rebuild it06:53
rsalvetiit would be all fine it wasn't this annoying flaky test, but well06:53
rsalvetilife is not that easy06:53
seb128right06:54
Saviqheh... /me rebuilds settings :|07:15
rsalvetiSaviq: what happened that this didn't land yesterday?07:21
Saviqrsalveti, no QA07:21
rsalvetisorry for the noise07:21
rsalvetioh, ok, hope we can land this today then07:21
Saviqrsalveti, yeah, just need to catch davmor2 or om26er07:22
rsalveticool07:22
seb128Saviq, do we need to block on qa for that?07:40
Saviqwe don't *need* to07:40
seb128but you prefer? ;-)07:40
Saviqbut it's a significant change affecting the whole system, I just wanted to dilute the responsibility of something breaking ;P07:41
seb128lol07:41
* didrocks adds more water to Saviq's glass :)07:41
Saviqisn't that what QA signoff is for? :D07:41
seb128yeah, it is07:41
seb128why do you think you find nowhere there to actually do the signing?07:41
seb128:p07:41
seb128they know what they are doing!07:41
Saviq:)07:43
seb128(nowhere -> nobody)07:45
Laneymorning08:05
Laneyseb128's been up early!08:05
seb128come on!08:05
didrocksand 5th in a row \o/08:05
seb128hey Laney, how are you?08:05
* didrocks just hopes desrt wake up and tell the same :)08:06
Laneyhahaha08:06
Laneywednesday trolling08:06
Laneyyeah I'm good, went to a cool talk last night about how you can make people remember false things08:06
seb128Laney, did you tell them about yourself remembering that you had to upload the new gtk?08:07
Laney:P08:08
LaneyI'd be able to recall how we talked about that08:08
Laneyand details of where we were, what we were eating and so on08:08
Laneyeven though it never happened08:08
Laneyin summary: memory can suck08:08
seb128so you can make people remember false things? do you have to get tem hypnotized or something?08:11
seb128rsalveti, Saviq: u-s-s migrated, you can m&c and trigger a rebuild of the other silo08:12
seb128oh, you had m&c before it migrated it seems08:13
seb128ignore me then ;-)08:13
Saviqseb128, yeah, I already rebuilt ;)08:13
* Saviq checks that it got in08:13
Saviqoh no I'm not, didrocks FYI http://people.canonical.com/~didrocks/citrain/silos/ is out of date :|08:14
Saviqk it's there08:15
didrocksSaviq: well, they are moving the infra without any warning or discussion and so on, so I can't follow that08:15
Saviqdidrocks, thought so, probably best to just drop it then?08:15
didrocksyep, doing so08:15
didrocksthanks08:16
Laneyhmm, one way she showed was to show people three true memories and one false one and ask them to talk about it (telling them that all four were true)08:18
Laneythen at the end if you say that one of them was false sometimes people even guess the wrong one then08:18
Laneyalso you can falsify videos or pictures to make people actually believe that they did something they didn't, which is interesting for e.g. justice08:19
seb128interesting indeed08:19
Laneyapparently presenting false evidence in police interviews is allowed even today in some parts of the US(!)08:20
seb128crazy country08:20
didrockssil2100: as I was removing the whole citrain directory in my home folder which was out of sync (seems you changed some IP without telling me) so that people not relied on that, I deleted the whole directory08:23
desrt5th in a row!08:23
didrockssil2100: part of it contained the images for the buttons on the spreadsheet08:23
didrockssil2100: so, I guess the spreadsheet might have lost its images08:24
seb128desrt, hey, good "morning"? or are you going to bed?08:24
sil2100didrocks: what IP? I didn't change any IP08:24
larsuseb128: probably he had a long Canada day party ;)08:24
larsuis dholbach in Toronto?08:24
seb128larsu, yeah, sounds like it08:24
didrockssil2100: the ci-train machine changed apparently08:24
didrockssil2100: it doesn't respond to ping08:24
sil2100didrocks: not to my knowledge08:24
didrockssil2100: well, it does08:24
sil2100hmm08:24
seb128larsu, no, if dholbach was there, desrt would only start the party08:25
didrockscould have been weeks ago, you didn't keep me in the loop :)08:25
seb128larsu, not be back08:25
didrocksbut IIRC, you reinstalled it08:25
larsuseb128: maybe he's still getting ready :P08:25
sil2100didrocks: maybe it was changed during the 'switch to a bigger disk'?08:25
seb128marga, ;-)08:25
didrockssil2100: can be, I didn't follow the operation08:26
seb128marga, ups, sorry08:26
seb128larsu, ;-)08:26
larsu:)08:26
* desrt trouble sleeping08:26
didrockssil2100: so, the silos projection in my people.canonical.com didn't work08:26
desrtfor a very very odd reason...08:26
didrockssil2100: I removed the whole directory, without remembering there were those buttons…08:26
sil2100didrocks: just so you know - I was not aware of the machine IP being changed, my understanding was that everything stays the same just the machine is upgraded08:26
larsudesrt: excited for Berlin?08:26
didrockssil2100: you should probably readd some and point to another dir08:26
didrockssil2100: no worry, I didn't notice before Saviq pinged me about an outdated projection08:27
desrtlarsu: no.  spent most of my holiday untangling a ball of yarn.  was very satisfying, but didn't quite finish, so it's bothering me :)08:27
didrockssil2100: so, just a warning for the icons, so that you know :)08:28
sil2100didrocks: ok, will find some buttons then and put them in some seperate place ;)08:28
didrocksgreat!08:28
sil2100Thanks! I now see they're being gone ;p08:28
didrocksyep, google doesn't cache them for long for sure08:28
larsudesrt: that's ... random. But cool!08:29
Laneyseb128: I don't see your inline comment08:42
Laneyis it that you wanted me to add some ()?08:43

seb128larsu, ^ do you know about that?09:03
larsuseb128: nope. I remember fixing this last year and I can't reproduce it now09:06
larsumpt: libappindicator doesn't have anything to do with the sound menu (it's for apps only)09:07
Laneywtf09:07
LaneyI just replied to that09:07
Laneywhere did I do it?09:07
* Laney is going mad09:07
larsuCimi: you seeing this on utopic?09:07
seb128larsu, weird, it happens in settings for me09:07
seb128but that's trusty (though with GTK 3.12°09:07
larsuso scrolling up moves the slider to the left?09:08
larsuand the other way around in the sound menu?09:08
larsuLaney: please don't :)09:08

Laneyboth09:09
larsuseb128: woah. I have the same in _other_ panels09:09
seb128gtk bog?09:09
Laneytry using up/down or the scroll wheel09:09
larsuMouse & Touchpad sliders behave the other way09:09
larsuI am using the scroll wheel, that's what we're talking about, no?09:10
larsuup/down is broken as well09:10
LaneyIt is the same for the scroll wheel and the arrow keys09:10
Laneythat's what the bug I just linked says09:10
larsuokay. In the sound panel, up/down is broken but scroll wheel works09:10
larsu(for me)09:10
larsuMADNESS09:11
Laneyall broken for me09:11
larsuugh09:13
larsu                gtk_range_set_inverted (GTK_RANGE (priv->scale), TRUE);09:13
seb128key and scroll are reversed here09:13
larsuthis is from the sound panel ^^09:13
ogra_just rename it to volume-lottery09:14
larsuah, this was only for the vertical case. The panel does override scroll events though09:16
larsuprobably it gets it wrong09:16
LaneySeems like a general GtkHScale bug to me09:17
larsubut why do different ones behave differently then?09:17
larsuand why do I only see the problem in the Mouse panel?09:17
LaneyI don't know why you see that because it's not what I see, or seb from what he said09:18
Laneyevery GtkHScale in u-c-c I'm trying scrolls the same09:18
* larsu wonders what he's doing wrong09:20
larsuyou guys are on utopic?09:20
larsufor me, everyone except the ones in sound scroll the same (wrong) way09:21
Laneyyep09:21
Cimiyep09:24
larsuCimi, seb128, Laney: do you have natural scrolling enabled?09:24
Laneythe indicator is right though09:24
seb128larsu, no09:25
Cimino09:25
Laneydon't think so09:25
Laneyis that where it's always inverted?09:25
larsuyes, but only for touchpads iirc09:25
larsugsettings get org.gnome.settings-daemon.peripherals.touchpad natural-scroll09:25
Laneyyeah don't have one of those09:25
Laneyfalse09:26
larsuhm, there's a couple of more bugs about this on gnome bugzilla09:38

ochosidarkxst: right. my main problem is i don't have time atm to look into the lightdm-check (even though i agree that it's the better fix), so i thought i can easily push this for the meantime and revert it once we have the better fix11:57
