CharcoalflipHi, I'm stuck in 640x480 screen resolution in Unity after stopping lightdm (sudo service lightdm stop) and restarting it (sudo service lightdm start). I tried to change it in the display settings, but 640x480 is the only option available.05:48
Charcoalfliphttps://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16623407/screenshots/ubuntu_huge.png It looks like this.05:49
CharcoalflipHow do I get my normal resolution back?05:49

AvagettoHello. Can me somebody help with the launch of the unity from the package ubuntu-desktop-next?08:15
seb128hey Avagetto, what do you need?08:21
AvagettoAfter you install the package and restart window appears, enter the password (if I'm not mistaken lightdm). I'd like to say that the package was put on the ubuntu-core img (14.10). After you enter the password and press enter, the system hangs. The operating system running on an ARM device.08:21
Avagettoif i install lubuntu-desktop or xubuntu-desktop packages all work well.08:21
seb128hum, not sure how to debug that, it might be that mir doesn't like your videocard08:22
AvagettoGPU Driver to User space is Missing. as far as I understand, if I use x11, he draws through the framebuffer08:25
AvagettoI wanted to try to use mir in order to circumvent the problem of lack of drivers. I have access to the console. if you want I can attach the logs.08:28
seb128Avagetto, you can try #ubuntu-mir for mir questions08:38
Avagettook)08:39

tsdgeosSaviq: we should really really commit https://code.launchpad.net/~aacid/unity8/dtrdomainpot/+merge/24023109:01
tsdgeoshaving an untranslatable string is not cool09:01
Saviqtsdgeos, yeah, I'm preparing a silo today09:01
tsdgeosok :)09:01
tsdgeosSaviq: so waht with https://code.launchpad.net/~aacid/unity8/multimediaMocks/+merge/240248 that lies unapproved?09:08
Saviqtsdgeos, why's it unapproved?09:09
tsdgeosSaviq: Mirco didn't seem to top approve09:09
Saviqtsdgeos, fixed ;)09:09
tsdgeosSaviq: others complained that ::setAudioRole should actually set the thing, while others commented this is just a mock so that stuff works and that should not be needed09:10
tsdgeosbut those others didn't comment on the MR09:10
tsdgeosso they shall remain unnamed ^_^09:11

Saviqtsdgeos, what's the deal between add-screenshotter and multimediamocks?10:26
tsdgeosSaviq: i cherry-picked the commit10:27
tsdgeosfrrom add-screenshotter to mocks10:27
Saviqtsdgeos, so if I'm merging screenshotter anyway, no point?10:27
Saviqtsdgeos, *or* we need to resubmit screenshotter on top10:27
sil2100Saviq: hey! Do you think your team could find a moment this week to check out the unity8 AP failure that we're seeing in ubuntu-rtm?10:28
Saviqsil2100, sooo10:28
Saviqsil2100, I know the failure10:28
Saviqsil2100, it's caused by the dashboard scope10:28
Saviqsil2100, basically the failing test goes "let's wait until the activity indicator goes away"10:29
sil2100The one that's also crashing?10:29
Saviqsil2100, but the scope never tells it to go away10:29
Saviqsil2100, dunno, is it?10:29
Saviqsil2100, so in theory I could just increase the timeout10:29
sil2100Saviq: we're seeing a scoperunner crash everytime, thostr_ and cwayne mentioned it's the event scope crashing10:30
sil2100hm10:30
sil2100Ah, so it's like that10:30
tsdgeosSaviq: if you're merging screenshotter you don't need the mocks one10:30
tsdgeosthat's  right10:30
tsdgeossorry had to go tend the doorbell10:30
Saviqtsdgeos, now I need it because others prereq yours10:30
tsdgeosouch10:31
tsdgeossorry :/10:31
Saviqtsdgeos, can you please resubmit screenshotter on top of yours10:31
tsdgeosi would have expected bzr was smart enough to know it was the same commit10:31
tsdgeosi even did that bzr merge lp:foo -c changesetNumber10:31
tsdgeosSaviq: sure10:31
Saviqtsdgeos, it's not the same commit10:36
Saviqtsdgeos, the commit has the same diff10:36
tsdgeosSaviq: sure, but i thought merge -c did that10:37
Saviqtsdgeos, nope, that's just applying the diff from -c, you commit after that, meaning there's no relation between the two commit10:37
Saviqs10:37
Saviqtsdgeos, apparently the way to cherry-pick in bzr is to revert the unwanted commits...10:37
Saviqbut I cry every time someone mentions that...10:38
Saviqtsdgeos, that isn't to say that it would conflict for sure, lemme check10:38
tsdgeosi've the other branch ready10:39
tsdgeostell me if you want to try or i should just press the buttons10:39
Saviqtsdgeos, actually leave it10:39
Saviqtsdgeos, it merges fine10:39
tsdgeosok10:39
Saviqtsdgeos, sorry for the noise10:40
tsdgeosno worries :)10:40

dednickmzanetti, Saviq: i'm going to do some changes to the branches for the sync fix. seb128 has reviewed the uss branch and doesnt really want the new switch/check component. Opting for the sdk component with some extra bits on each instance it's broken.11:03
Saviqdednick, think it's not worth reviewing yet?11:04

dednickSaviq: yeah, i think so. I think i need to work out what's going on with the stuck flight mode though. Possibly increase the re-assert timeout?11:07

greyback:)12:42
cwaynethe first 2 are moot, we have a change for that imminently12:45
cwaynethird one i'll close and re-assign to hanloon, we can just make those non-interactive12:46
* cwayne has never been accused of poor grammar in a bug before12:46
cwayneSaviq: btw so we do have a fix for the scope crashing, but do not yet have a fix for the activity indicator not going away12:46
Saviqcwayne, you can only make the whole category non-interactive, not individual results, is that enough still?12:47
Saviqcwayne, ok :|12:47
seb128cwayne, is the fitbit stat screen known to have issues?12:48

cwayneSaviq: i think those results are defined in a separate category anyway, so shouldn't be an issue12:50
seb128cwayne, yes12:50
Saviqanpok, it just listens to keydown / keyup and if the power button is pressed for more than 2s it displays the dialog12:50
anpokah12:50
anpokso not triggered by usc12:50
cwayneseb128: what do you see instead?12:51
anpokbecause there is a code in usc that would just turn the screen on after a two seconds power press12:51
seb128cwayne, the preview also has a "x" instead of the image12:51

mhall119kgunn: thostr_: Saviq: the Ubuntu Online Summit is next week, and people are really interested in hearing about the progress & plans for Unity 8 and Mir on the desktop, can we get a couple of sessions from you guys on those topics?17:32
mhall119Trevinho: bregma: We'd also like some sessions about what's still going on and planned to happen on Unity 717:32
mhall119both for end-users, like an intro to Unity or tips & tricks session, and also plans for features and improvements17:33
bregmamhall119, we're not really planning anything new for Unity 7 other than working on the (impressive! ginormous! massive!) backlog of existing bugs17:35
mhall119bregma: then end-user sessions covering the existing features would still be nice ot have17:39
mhall119we're getting more of an audience who wants that kind of thing participating in UOS17:39
