[00:24] <_com_> hi [00:25] <_com_> i need support with the following problem: i've have no hdmi- ouput anymore. [00:26] <_com_> tanks. [00:33] _com_: For starters, have you asked in #ubuntu? Secondly, you need to give us some more informatino. What form of HDMI is no longer working? Is it audio, video, or both? [00:35] <_com_> themuso: yes, i've asked in #ubuntu, but no one has answered. there is no video and audio. [00:36] <_com_> the kernel is: 3.16.0-30-generic. i'm using gnome 14.10. [00:38] <_com_> themuso: the problem appears since yesterday. but i don't know what happens. i've tried different cable and monitor. [00:39] _com_: Ok, did you install any updates recently? What GPU are you using, and do you have any proprietary video drivers installed? Do you get any splash screen or console messages? [00:41] <_com_> themuso: no, i didn't install any updates. the gpu is an Intel Ivybridge Mobile. i don't use any proprietary video drivers. i don't get any splash screens or console messages. [00:42] Ok. Do you get any BIOS/boot activity on the screen? [00:43] <_com_> themuso: no. i don't get any BIOS/boot activity on the hdmi connected screen. [00:44] <_com_> themuso: i'm using ubuntu 14.10. [00:52] <_com_> themuso: can you help me? [00:57] _com_: Do you have any other monitors you can test with, and is that the only monitor you are using with your machine? [00:59] <_com_> themuso: i've tried the same monitor with another machine (also ubuntu 14.10, kernel: 3.16.0-30) and it works. [01:00] _com_: Well if you don't get any boot/BIOS screens, then it sounds like a hardware problem, unless of course the video card has multiple outputs, and boot screens/BIOS are being displayed via another port. [01:03] <_com__> themuso: how can i proof it? is it a hardware problem or a driver problem? [01:06] _com__: If your machine has other video outputs, try connecting them to a monitor and see if you get anything from the BIOS or Ubuntu bootup. [01:09] <_com__> themuso: with a vga cable it works. but with hmdi it doesn't work. [01:10] <_com__> themuso: maybe is the hdmi output broken or could it be a driver probelm? thanks a lot! [01:14] <_com__> themuso: i will try it and will look in the bios settings. [01:24] <_com_> themuso: thank you very much. i don't know what happens. after i did plug the vga cable in, i reboot the system and open the bios settings, and after all i plug in the hdmi cable and the bootscreen appears. [01:42] _com_: Good to hear. [01:43] <_com_> themuso: thank you & bye,bye & have nice night. [01:43] _com_: You're welcome. [05:33] Good morning [07:02] good morning [07:07] good morning! [07:08] good morning desktopers [07:08] hey didrocks larsu [07:10] re guys :) [07:12] Guys what is the password for login on ubuntu next iso? [07:12] excalibr, shouldn't have one [07:13] empty password rather [07:13] where does it ask for you? [07:14] at the login screen [07:15] Ive tried id/pass ubuntu/ubuntu, ubuntu/, / [07:15] none works [07:15] this is the newest iso build. just grabbed it few hours ago [07:17] should be "ubuntu-desktop-next" and empty [07:17] but lightdm shouldn't show [07:17] where do you try it? [07:17] ohh..that did it :) [07:17] if you get the greeter it's likely because unity8/mir fails to start and you are bounced back there [08:17] morning [08:18] so why does the unity8 login greeter on desktop use Xorg instead of something relying on mir? :P [08:20] mlankhorst, there is no unity8 login greeter? [08:21] perhaps, but unity7 in Xorg-mir is a login greeter :P [08:21] so that could be used at least [08:23] morning al ready [08:23] already [08:23] indeed! [08:23] :) [08:24] Media scanner has been busy recently. Last few days I've found it spinning at 100% CPU [08:24] in 300% in today's case [08:24] s/in/or [08:24] hey willcooke, mlankhorst [08:32] mlankhorst, not sure what you suggest? we intend to use an unity8 greeter the day we have one, our current one is the unity7 one though [08:32] seb128: was curious if you could use the unity7 greeter with Xorg-mir :P [08:32] I guess we could [08:33] what would it bring us? [08:33] unity-session-compositor doing what it should? :P [08:37] and allowing me to replace /usr/bin/Xorg with Xmir for testing === tsdgeos_ is now known as tsdgeos [08:58] mlankhorst, I don't see an issue with that, maybe email the desktop list to describe the suggested change so we get feedback on it? [09:05] +1 [09:06] The installer guys were interested in switching to Mir, but maybe Xmir would make a suitable stepping stone? [09:06] Actually, I don't know that they even use X [09:06] yo [09:06] what up Laney [09:10] hey Laney [09:10] willcooke, the installer guys? do we still have some of those? [09:10] willcooke, also for what installer? mir currently doesn't work on VMs for example, that's not good for the installer (same for the greeter) [09:10] also does it work with all video drivers, included nvidia, etc? [09:11] * willcooke shuts up [09:11] I think that was an issue when we previously talked about using the system compositor by default [09:11] It's a good job there is someone sane around here [09:11] lol [09:11] willcooke, don't shut up, those are interesting questions :-) [09:11] we just need to figure out the answers [09:11] ha! === qengho is now known as CardinalFang === CardinalFang is now known as qengho [09:32] didrocks, do you remember what was the issue with enabling the system compositor by default? that was the support on some drivers right? do you know if that's still an issue? [09:35] seb128: some driver support indeed, so the idea was to fallback and having a white list of driver known to work [09:36] seb128: that's still an issue AFAIK, only intel (and maybe nouveau?) works on Mir [09:36] so, if someone installs nvidia (blob) driver, we need to have a good story here [09:36] mlankhorst, ^ is that still true? [09:36] Noskcaj / darkxst: what's the grilo status? [09:37] Laney, split is ready for sponsoring [09:37] https://code.launchpad.net/~noskcaj/ubuntu/vivid/grilo-plugins/split [09:38] is it agreed? [09:38] intel, radeon, and nouveau work? [09:38] mlankhorst, what happens is somebody install i.e nvidia binary drivers? [09:38] Laney, was discussed with berto and seb128 in #debian IRC [09:38] 'yes'? [09:38] and yes agreed [09:38] ok [09:39] i.e->e.g [09:41] seb128: yo uwon't have unity8 anyway.. [09:41] in that case [09:41] so my guess is 'unity-session-compositor will fail to start' [09:42] mlankhorst, ok, so that's out of question to do on the default image [09:42] we can probably do it on -next thouh [09:42] though [09:44] yeah default image is u7 anyway, but for u8 image it might make sense [09:44] well, having xmir/system compositor tested around u7 would make sense [09:44] or could at least [09:44] what is needed to change -next to use the system compositor? [09:45] I guess changes to lightdm mostly [09:45] configuration changes? [09:45] seems like something to discuss with robert_ancell [09:45] just email the desktop list and let's have the discussion there :-) [09:51] darkxst: are you going to sponsor it? (just noticed it's in gnome) [09:51] (the set) [09:51] Laney, oh didnt realise that, ok will do [09:54] great! [09:58] Laney, and I already reviewed it so uploading now [10:02] darkxst: doesn't seem to be an upgrade path [10:03] Laney, since there are only 2 rdeps no much point of transitional package [10:03] and pretty sure noskcaj also made updates for those 2 existing packages) [10:04] ok [10:17] Laney, though not to sure we he put them [10:17] were [10:18] just changing the dep right? [10:19] i'm sure we can handle that [10:20] Laney, yes, and doing it now for gnome-music and gnome-online-miners, you can handle it for totem ;) [10:21] Laney, do you have an updated vivid? can you try to build u-s-s? [10:22] seb128: ya, ok, from where? [10:22] Laney, lp:u-s-s [10:23] did Mirv merge his changes there? [10:23] yes [10:23] So, something's been bugging me for the last few weeks but I can't figure out what's wrong - does anyone know what I need to do to get that little envolope in the indicators? [10:23] but somewhat it fails to build for me locally [10:23] jpds, run a software that uses that indicator (e.g empathy, pidgin, evolution, tb) [10:24] seb128: I'm always running thunderbird. [10:24] jpds, and the indicator is not showing? is it installed? (dpkg -l | grep indicator-messages) [10:24] seb128: Yes, and yes. [10:24] Hence my confusion. [10:24] seb128: indeed it fails [10:25] Looks like the extension for thunderbird is installed too. [10:25] Mirv, ^ how can that be the case? how did you build u-s-s? [10:25] jpds, it's not showing at all? [10:25] there's a diff to the archive [10:25] vs. bzr [10:25] seb128: Yep, never seen it. [10:25] Laney, how/why [10:25] seb128: Since my reinstall. [10:25] guess it wasn't committed [10:25] jpds, does it show if you run empathy? [10:25] Mirv, ^ [10:25] it's basically the contents of my branch [10:26] seb128: Hmm, don't have it installed. [10:26] 1310 commit has [10:26] " Fake-sync from archives 0.3+15.04.20150213-0ubuntu2. Does not include the work-in-progress branch. [10:26] " [10:26] that seems buggy [10:26] jpds, $ gsettings get com.canonical.indicator.messages applications [10:27] seb128: Nothing in there. [10:27] jpds, that's your issue [10:27] not sure why tb doesn't add itself though [10:32] seb128: Laney: not committed as commented on the bug as it was a combination of laney's wip branch, my branch (enough to make it compile) and commenting out Storage.qml. I did a fakesync from archives and waited to know what kind of approach you want to have. [10:32] Mirv, trunk should be what is in the distro, especially that currently trunk doesn't build due to your incomplete commit :-/ [10:33] Mirv, can you please fix the build issue in there? I'm hacking on bluetooth changes and I need trunk to keep building [10:33] seb128: ok, as you wish. I gave the possibility of finishing the wip bramch properly, but I'll sync the trunk now then instead of fakesync. [10:34] In a minute I'll do a MP to bring back the storage panel with the copy of the function or similar [10:34] then we can work on a proper replacement over time [10:34] Laney, thanks [10:35] Mirv, yeah, ideally we wouldn't have merge half work, but having things still building is better so it doesn't block other fixes to land or people to work [10:36] Mirv, nice work on landing qt5.4 btw :-) [10:39] seb128: Laney: trunk uptodate [10:39] seb128: thanks :) [10:42] darkxst, you just uploaded gnome-music, have you seen that there is an update for it in the sponsoring queue? you might want to upload that one? [10:43] Mirv, btw, partial updates were a fail, e.g if you used update-manager to do a normal update, it would update part of the qt stack and let things not working on qt version mismatches [10:43] like settings would run until I dist-upgraded [10:43] seb128, oh, didnt see that, will do [10:44] darkxst, thanks === MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch [12:41] hum, notify-osd volume doesn't take into account the above 100% patch from larsu as the indicator [12:42] it was before IIRC [12:42] (like 100% is now less than the maximum volume you can set) [12:42] anyone else seeing this? === MacSlow|lunch is now known as MacSlow [13:04] i havent read the TOS so im just gona STFU [13:05] before they put me on some english prison === alan_g is now known as alan_g|lunch [13:11] didrocks, not sure to understand what you mean, do you have the option enabled or not? [13:12] seb128: I have the option enabled, the indicator is working as expected [13:13] however, I'm using the media keys for volume up/down [13:13] the notify-osd bar is at 100% way before I reach the "new" 100% [13:16] hum, unsure what handles those notifications, is that u-s-d? [13:16] that didn't change much in vivid :-/ [13:16] didrocks, did you change the option during the session? [13:17] seb128: I didn't change or update it [13:17] I wonder if that's another instance of being bitten by the gsettings get/subscribe to change bug [13:17] guess not then [13:18] seb128: just noticed it today, not sure since when it started, but it didn't do that in the past, right? [13:18] no it didn't [13:18] do you see it as well? [13:19] yeah, it's weird [13:19] it's like they were updating a second time [13:20] I can see one value and the bar changing [13:20] it's easier to see if you press several times, it can see the not regular changes [13:20] it seems to step forth and back [13:21] exactly [13:22] I'm going to have a look [13:22] the slider in the gtk app doesn't show the step back and force [13:22] or did you want to do that? [13:22] didrocks: are you a cook? [13:22] I can have a look, but later this week [13:22] k [13:22] Frugals: ? [13:22] let's see if I beat you to it ;-) [13:23] deal! :) [13:23] do you cook meth? [13:24] your nick saying you did rocks === zz_Bl4ckD34Th is now known as Bl4ckD34Th [13:55] seb128, is guest U8 session on your U8 machine working? [13:55] I just get a blank screen [13:55] with a pointer [13:56] * willcooke upgrades [14:03] willcooke: AFAIK, guest sessions have never worked on the U8 desktop: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity8-desktop-session/+bug/1307618 [14:03] willcooke, let me upgrade as well, it's working but there was the qt5.4 transition yesterday [14:03] Launchpad bug 1307618 in unity8-desktop-session (Ubuntu) "Unity 8 Desktop Preview does not work in the guest session" [Medium,Confirmed] [14:04] oh, guest [14:04] ChrisTownsend, seb128 - oki - thanks! [14:04] seb128: You had me worried there for a bit:) [14:04] ChrisTownsend, is the issue due to apparmor or...? [14:05] seb128: Permissions on the Mir socket I believe. [14:05] seb128: Or that is the first issue to overcome. [14:05] ChrisTownsend, but is the apparmor profile what blocks the access or...? [14:06] seb128: Hmm, not sure. I should probably investigate. === Bl4ckD34Th is now known as zz_Bl4ckD34Th [14:06] ChrisTownsend, I'm going to have a look [14:06] didrocks: uh? Works for me... [14:06] seb128: For some reason, I thought it was a known issue by some other team, but it's been a while. [14:06] seb128: Ok, cool, thanks! [14:06] larsu: hum, maybe something racy? seb128 and I seem to see it [14:07] ChrisTownsend, could be, I'm just not aware of it [14:07] seb128: Right [14:07] didrocks, larsu, it's indicator sound overwriting the value with a buggy one, stop it and things work [14:07] seb128, didrocks: I'll have a look. I guess the recent i-sound changes mess things up again [14:08] larsu, didrocks, I'm pondering reverting the recent indicator-sound changes [14:08] it makes it display notification when it shouldn't like [14:08] seb128: confirmed [14:08] like any time the source changes [14:08] seb128: works well once stopped and prevented to restart [14:08] which includes when starting the greeter [14:08] or plugin an headset [14:09] didrocks, you can just use "stop" with upstart to prevent restart :-) [14:09] seb128: who uses upstart? :p [14:09] indicator-soundù! === zz_Bl4ckD34Th is now known as Bl4ckD34Th [14:10] seb128: I need to get used to upstart in session one day :) [14:14] sbuild y u hang [14:22] didrocks, seb128: I can reproduce now. Apparently I didn't have the right version installed (or didn't log out in long enough) [14:23] larsu, don't bother anyway, bt works first I would say, let's ted look at that bug since he's the one who introduced it [14:23] seb128: ok, fair enough === alan_g|lunch is now known as alan_g [14:24] seb128: hop, bug #1422745 [14:24] bug 1422745 in indicator-sound (Ubuntu) "wrong notification progress reported if volume >100% enabled in pulseaudio" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1422745 [14:24] didrocks, thanks [14:24] yw :) [14:25] tedg, hey, can you look at ^, seems a recent indicator-sound regression [14:25] hm, I also get a notification now when I toggle the "allow > 100%" checkbox [14:25] tedg, it overwrites the u-s-d notifications with buggy ones, which makes the bubbles have a visual glitch and being wrong [14:25] and also when changing the volume from system settings [14:25] this is all kinds of wrong... [14:25] larsu, yeah, that's part of the "notifications keep being displayed on any random revent" [14:25] tedg, why did we need to do that again? [14:26] seb128: ah, right [14:26] * seb128 feels like we should just revert the recent changes [14:26] tedg: I took a lot of care a couple of months ago to make sure notifications only happen when needed [14:26] the over-spammification of notifications is indeed a user regression IMHO [14:34] bah, polkit refuses my user password on my test machine, wth? [14:34] same password works for login and in the greeter [14:35] larsu, The problem was the notifications got added into the volume control object when the streams code was added last minute. [14:36] So, then pulling them out of the volume control object has made things funky, as basically they weren't working there. [14:36] But, we should drop g-s-d sending notifications. [14:37] tedg, patches are welcome :-) [14:37] tedg: didn't I pull this out of the control object once? Why is it in there again? [14:37] tedg, also please make indicator-sound send non buggy ones [14:37] Fixing indicator-sound first :-) [14:38] larsu, it got readded with the streams code which is… needs reworking. [14:38] tedg: ugh :( [14:38] tedg: unity-settings-daemon only sends a notification in the media keys plugin - which it should [14:39] basically the idea should be this: send a notification not when the sound changes, but when the user does an action [14:39] larsu, Eh, no, I don't think so. As we really should start routing media keys the same in U7 and U8. [14:39] which is only in two places: (1) the media keys plugin and (2) the scroll-event over the indicator [14:39] larsu, So I think it should start using the actions we're using in U8. [14:40] tedg: sure, if you port the whole media keys thing to indicator-sound, we can drop the u-s-d plugin [14:40] I would very much welcome that [14:41] larsu, Well in the U8 world the media keys get caught by the compositor (U8) and then get forwarded to i-sound. So we'd still want usd to catch the keypresses, just pass them the same. [14:43] tedg: even better. We should also drop i-sound then ;) === Bl4ckD34Th is now known as zz_Bl4ckD34Th === sil2100_ is now known as sil2100 [15:24] bah [15:24] BAH I SAY [15:24] why can't we keep x-build-deps installable :( [15:29] because we don't have tests for those which block things that regress [15:30] haha [15:30] yes!

[15:34] - spent quite some time to add/fix medium and large tests for the above and rebase on master + some small functionalities issues. Also some pep8 and small tests enhancements. [15:34] -> release planned tomorrow, *plenty* of time before feature freeze! (a whole day ;)) [15:34] Systemd: [15:34] - some display-manager generator fixes for debian. [15:34] - uploaded plymouth changes for fsckd and as the fsckd changes couldn't be in systemd 219, Martin distro-patched those fsckd changes and is now in ubuntu! Small usptream comments on it, addressed. [15:34] Misc: [15:34] - half patch piloting day, will do the other half tomorrow [15:34] - fctix MIR rerereviewed and… approved!

We can sync in a couple of weeks [15:40] i'll look at the indicator [15:40] will be good since attente and i are meeting up later today anyway [15:41] desrt, thanks [15:41] thanks chaps [15:41] #topic desrt === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-desktop to: Welcome to the Desktop Team | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam | For support please join #ubuntu | Issues with GTK 3.14? Check here: http://pad.ubuntu.com/gtk-update-v | Desktop Team Weekly Meeting 2015-02-17 | Current topic: desrt [15:41] hi [15:41] not a huge week in terms of actual code production [15:42] spent some time on reviews [15:42] had a lot of discussions about some feedback coming in on first uses of g_autoptr() and G_DECLARE_TYPE macros, with some suggested changes [15:42] did some code reviews [15:42] also did some trying out of pwithnall's work upstream for the new approach for m4 macros in gnome projects... trying to make sure that's usable and not entirely happy with the result yet, so more discussions there [15:43] started to create a new upstream m4macros module that will hopefully be a good compromise position on that [15:43] i fixed the potential deadlock in my mount-monitor branch and am awaiting reviews [15:43] i'm also probably finally merging the GSimpleIOStream branch today [15:44] i also wrote a neat new mode for dconf: 'dconf summary' which lists which apps are configured, which are in their default state and which dconf paths are orphans (ie: old settings left over from uninstalled apps) [15:44] ooh, nice [15:44] and as a side project i'm working on a set of tools for mirroring bugzilla on my laptop, which is driving the development of some very interesting pieces of technology -- a streaming class for GVariant over sockets, and a sequence-number-based database storage mechanism [15:44] both of which i hope to use for dconf database syncing at some point in the future [15:44] that's about all [15:45] thanks desrt, sounds like a lot of code production to me :) [15:45] * qengho recalls harrowing tales of putting configs in desktopcouch. [15:45] btw: http://fpaste.org/186581/ [15:46] the 'unknown app' thing will make seb happy... it's a way to shame even more people into renaming their desktop files ;) [15:46] desrt: I gave it a quick review but need a walk through of the deadlock fixing thing [15:46] desrt: otherwise looks fine to me [15:47] larsu: cool. let's talk about that after the meeting [15:47] thanks chaps [15:47] #topic dgadomski === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-desktop to: Welcome to the Desktop Team | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam | For support please join #ubuntu | Issues with GTK 3.14?

Investigating that. [15:47] bug 1104230 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "DisplayPort 1.2 MST support is missing in the Intel driver" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1104230 [15:47] talked to cyphermox about the network manager issue (bug #1421259), he is going to check it [15:47] bug 1421259 in network-manager-applet (Ubuntu) "Can't add new WiFi network from lightdm greeter" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1421259 [15:48] finally have some time to get back to improving fix to bug #1125442 [15:48] bug 1125442 in Compiz 0.9.11 "Always Visible and On Top Windows Steal Focus on Workspace Switch" [Low,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1125442 [15:48] and that's it this week [15:48] dgadomski, anything we can assist with? [15:48] no, thank you, everything looks ok [15:49] I wonder if the iface issue is what I've seen on U8 V. Where my network drops in and out if I'm connected to wifi and wired [15:49] * willcooke plays [15:49] thanks dgadomski [15:49] #topic Laney === meetingology changed the topic of #ubuntu-desktop to: Welcome to the Desktop Team | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam | For support please join #ubuntu | Issues with GTK 3.14? Check here: http://pad.ubuntu.com/gtk-update-v | Desktop Team Weekly Meeting 2015-02-17 | Current topic: Laney [15:50] hi cool cats [15:50] • Short week - day off on Friday [15:50] * desrt eagerly awaits some unicode [15:50] • Performance review & 360 feedback for others [15:50] • Patch piloted [15:50] • Worked on some more fixes required before updating totem to 3.14 (ppa:ubuntu-desktop/ppa, please test, needs grilo-plugins from NEW) [15:50] ∘ has weird pixelated icons in some places & we need to theme the OSD [15:50] • Some extra dialog headerbar fixes in nautilus [15:50] • Update glib to debian, test, sync [15:50] • Work a bit on u-s-s/Qt 5.4 StorageInfo removal mitigation, now yak shaving the xbuilddeps into working again & want to look at adding a test for this (one problem is that autopkgtests are only triggered for reverse binary deps, not reverse build deps but maybe it'll be enough) [15:50] ⚘ [15:51] :) [15:51] thanks Laney [15:51] we have to skip on to mlankhorst 'cos he's got to head out.. so get your Xmir questions ready... larsu we'll come back round to you shortly...

Check here: http://pad.ubuntu.com/gtk-update-v | Desktop Team Weekly Meeting 2015-02-17 | Current topic: mlankhorst [15:52] hey [15:52] trying to get xmir running on other platforms [15:52] and adding a sync egl mode to xmir to hopefully get rid of some crashes [15:52] and some more xmir stuff, less important :P [15:53] testing with mesa 10.5.0-rc1, may upload it to archive tomorrow depending on piglit results [15:53] some debugging of utopic -> trusty xorg backport [15:53] ^d [15:53] mlankhorst, I wanted to say thanks again for all your help over with Xmir recently - it's been very reassuring to know you're there :) [15:53] Laney, you want to ask some questions? [15:55] hmm, don't know, I was hoping for a high level overview of what we're doing with xmir [15:55] so that I might have an idea of questions after that :P [15:56] so right now we're trying to get it to run reliably on Ubuntu Touch devices so that one can run X applications on Mir, on devices [15:56] On the desktop, specifically Intel hw, it's working well [15:57] willcooke, I guess it's a bit non obvious how the pieces fit together, what is the system compositor, what is xmir and what's doing, why we need them, etc [15:57] Things going on around Xmir include hooking up input events, getting socket activation set up so that X apps can request an Xmir instance [15:58] mlankhorst can answer that better than I could, but... [15:59] AIUI, the main system compositor is Unity8 sys comp. Xmir gets a surface from Mir to draw on, and passes that off to U8 sys. comp for placing in the right place [16:00] as far as the X applications are concerned, it's business as usual [16:00] and as far as U8 is concerned it's just another surface [16:00]
