| darkxst | ChaosBringer, run 'apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop^' | 01:09 |

| darkxst | then upgrade as normal | 01:09 |
| * ahoneybun flys in | 01:10 | |
| darkxst | seanh, are you using the Adwaita theme? | 01:16 |
| ChaosBringer | darkxst, k, that's what I thought (already have done that in ubuntu 14.04) lsb-release -a says ubuntu not ubuntu gnome. I read somewhere that gnome and unity don't play nice so was wondering if there was anything special, but if not, then cool | 02:12 |
| ChaosBringer | Thanks! | 02:12 |
| darkxst | ChaosBringer, lsd-release always reports ubuntu for all flavours | 02:17 |
| darkxst | and unity and GNOME play fine together | 02:18 |
| seanh | darkxst: Yes (I'm using Adwaita) | 10:34 |
| seanh | Some window shadows (e.g. gedit) just look "wrong" - way too big and kind of jagged edges | 10:34 |
| seanh | Others (e.g. terminal) look fine - much smaller | 10:35 |
| darkxst | seanh, I'm not seeing it here | 10:35 |
| l3on | seanh, screenshot please | 10:35 |
| seanh | darkxst: l3on https://www.dropbox.com/s/g2ow1o8e0roxk5q/Screenshot%20from%202014-10-27%2011%3A35%3A56.png?dl=0 | 10:37 |
| l3on | seanh, it's a intel driver bug | 10:38 |
| l3on | seanh, you have to update to latest driver | 10:38 |
| l3on | or keep this package I built some days ago: https://launchpad.net/~l3on/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages | 10:39 |
| l3on | DO NOT USE DIRECTLY THE PPA.. keep only the packages. | 10:39 |
| * l3on is wondering if gnome3-staging should provide this update .. since bug is present only in only GTK3.14 | 10:40 | |
| seanh | l3on: Do you think if I wait the driver update will come through the usual software sources and ppas that I already have? | 10:40 |
| seanh | It's not a very bad bug | 10:40 |
| seanh | But I could of course download and install that package quite easily | 10:41 |
| l3on | seanh, you are free to do what you ever want .. I just told you what the problem is and how to fix it. That's all :) | 10:41 |
| darkxst | l3on, we wouldn't normally ship drivers on gnome3-staging | 10:41 |
| l3on | darkxst, I know.. maybe a backport in utopic is better | 10:42 |
| darkxst | l3on, if it was something more critical we would | 10:42 |
| l3on | seanh, I'm using you image for a bug-report.. can I do ? | 10:45 |
| seanh | l3on: Sure | 10:46 |
| seanh | l3on: I was just trying to ask whether I had to manually install the package to get the fix, or if I could keep things "pure" by sticking to what's in my software channels and expect the fix to come in through them eventually anyway | 10:47 |
| seanh | I'll probably just install the package | 10:47 |
| l3on | seanh, see my package version --> 2:2.99.916-0ubuntu0.1 | 10:49 |
| l3on | I did it in that way in order to get the "official update" when it comes (version is 0ubuntu0.1, means that a 0ubuntu1 or 1ubuntu1 are greater than ..) | 10:50 |
| seanh | Oh I see, so you can manually install that package and then when the update comes through the software channel it'll automatically replace it? | 10:50 |
| l3on | seanh, bug 1386133 | 10:50 |
| ubot5 | bug 1386133 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "Please update and then backport to Utopic version 2.99.916" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1386133 | 10:50 |
| l3on | seanh, exactly | 10:51 |
| seanh | Thanks for the info | 10:51 |
| seanh | Let me install the package now and reboot... | 10:51 |
| seanh | l3on: I can confirm your package appears to fix the issue | 10:58 |
| l3on | then please report this info into the bug :) | 10:59 |
| seanh | Something just thrashed my hard drive and cpu for almost an hour without stopping | 11:47 |
| seanh | Literally couldn't move the mouse! | 11:47 |
| seanh | I switched to another terminal and ran top, thunderbird seemed to be taking a lot of cpu, and a root process called acounts-daemon | 11:47 |
| seanh | But even after killing both, it went on for several more minutes | 11:48 |
| seanh | Seems to have stopped now, keeping top and iotop open in windows | 11:48 |

| mgedmin | atop is a good thing to have installed: it dumps system stats every 10 seconds to a log file and lets you browse it later | 12:26 |
| mgedmin | you can see which processes were created/exited during each 10s window and how much ram or disk i/o they used | 12:26 |
| mgedmin | unusable os for a long time while hard disk is thrashing _might_ mean you ran out of ram and were swapping heavily | 12:27 |
| seanh | Yeah I think something filled my memory | 12:33 |
| seanh | But what was using 8GB of memory? | 12:33 |
| seanh | I think it may have something to do with having restored many gigabytes of media files, emails etc after doing a fresh ubuntu gnome install | 12:34 |
| seanh | I wonder if something was going nuts trying to index things | 12:34 |
| yossarianuk | hi - got a work colleague who is having issues after upgrading to 14.10 - really slow window resizing and other desktop effects | 12:39 |
| yossarianuk | almost 100% its an intel driver issue | 12:39 |
| yossarianuk | - if I delete the 'quiet,splash' line in grub it seems to sort it out ? | 12:42 |
| yossarianuk | [drm:ilk_display_irq_handler] *ERROR* Pipe B FIFO underrun - [drm:cpt_set_fifo_underrun_reporting] *ERROR* uncleared pch fifo underrun on pch transcoder B - drm:cpt_serr_int_handler] *ERROR* PCH transcoder B FIFO underrun | 12:42 |
| mgedmin | yossarianuk, can you verify that hardware gl is actually being used? glxinfo|grep renderer | 12:45 |
| yossarianuk | i'll ask him too... most things are ok - just some extremely slow (like window resizing..) - btw its an upgrade from 14.04 -> -> 14.10 | 12:46 |
| yossarianuk | my machine is similar and ok (although im also using kubuntu). | 12:47 |

| mgedmin | I once had a sluggish desktop because of some silly permissions issue with /dev/dri, which made gnome fall back to software rendering without telling me | 12:52 |

| mgedmin | okay, seriously | 15:13 |
| mgedmin | with gnome3-staging enabled all the gtk apps crash as soon as I press the <Menu> key | 15:13 |
| mgedmin | or try to open a menu | 15:14 |
| mgedmin | or push a button | 15:15 |
| mgedmin | how do I use apport-retrace? | 15:34 |
| mgedmin | I need to add ppa debug symbols to my sources.list or something? | 15:35 |

| l3on | there you can find an update of driver.. try it | 15:48 |
| l3on | DO NOT USE THE PPA DIRECTLY, just keep the deb package you need | 15:48 |
| mgedmin | does this have anything to do with apps segfaulting left and right? | 15:49 |
| mgedmin | I can live with broken shadows for now, the segfaults are priority #1 | 15:49 |
| * mgedmin is playing with apport-retrace -g /var/crash/_usr_bin_devhelp.1000.crash | 15:58 | |
| mgedmin | does anybody want to teach me gdb? | 16:14 |
| uuwe | is anyone having problems with 14.10 and the gnome3-staging ppa? | 16:56 |
| uuwe | i'm getting segfaults in a lot of gtk stuff | 16:56 |
| uuwe | usually after clicking on something in nautilus or the control center | 16:56 |
| uuwe | even pressing ctrl in nautilus triggers it | 16:56 |

| cyberalex4life | ? | 18:02 |
| mgedmin | cyberalex4life, I don't know for sure, but I think it may want a local MTA | 18:06 |
| mgedmin | hey, everyone -- with the gnome3-staging ppa all my windows have minimize and maximize buttons in the title bar, why? | 18:07 |
| uuwe | mgedmin, ok them it's not my system :) | 18:08 |
