didrockshey seb12807:53
seb128re didrocks :-)07:53
ali1234cyphermox/anyone else, who is actually responsible for ubiquity dm panel these days?07:57
ali1234and cyphermox, you mentioned that changes to the struts would have to be tested with other WMs, but how would one do that without rebuilding the entire ISO?07:58
larsubonjour #desktop!08:21
seb128hey larsu!08:31
larsuhi seb128!08:31
* pitti waves Bonojur to didrocks, seb128, and larsu, wie gehts?08:34
seb128hey pitti08:35
didrockssalut pitti !08:35
pittididrocks: FYI, I think I found a faster reproducer for the journal hang last night; installing rawhide now to verify08:36
pittibah; rawhide installer crashes immediately08:37
* pitti misses Ubuntu daily quality08:37
larsupitti: great thanks!08:37
didrockspitti: well, especially when they are starting a new dev cycles :)08:37
didrockspitti: in the end of fedora 21 dev cycle, when I tried multiple systemd stuff on it, it was okishj08:38
didrockspitti: what's your reproducer theory btw?08:38
pittididrocks: I wrote it in bug 142381108:38
ubot5bug 1423811 in systemd "219-1ubuntu1 regression: boot hangs, logind fails" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/142381108:38
* pitti goes to install F21 instead and hopes there's some upgrade08:39
* didrocks looks08:39
didrockspitti: waow, sounds a nice "easy" way to get it, let's cross fingers08:39
didrockspitti: oh btw, I think I got what was screwing up my shutdown time08:40
didrocksit seems to be my squid proxy08:40
pittididrocks: I verified that I can play the start/stop game endlessly on debian sid (215), and I get reliable hangs on vivid with upstream's journald, but also sometimes with vivid's08:40
didrockswhen removing it, shutdown time reduces drastically08:40
didrockspitti: let's hope fedora has the same behavior :)08:40
pittididrocks: oh, what is it trying to do on shutdown?08:40
pittididrocks: it seems a proxy is a thing which you can just kill08:40
didrockspitti: I need to look at the code, but I don't have those dbus connexions attempt08:41
didrocksso I wonder if something tries to poke dbus too much at shutdown, systemd tries to hang on as long as possible08:41
didrocks(because I didn't get this issue under upstart)08:41
didrocksanyway, worth exploring (once I'm done with upstream plymouth themes)08:41
didrocksbut of course, squid doesn't connect to dbus, so there is mystery :)08:43
didrockswill give it a look08:43
pittiwow, anaconda has become outright pleasant08:44
pittididrocks: squid-deb-proxy, I presume? Installing that into my VM08:45
pittididrocks: hm, that might need some configuration; shutdown is a split second here08:47
pittioh wait, not after the first reboot08:48
* didrocks doesn't understand why plymouth upstream code doesn't take the theme I selected, seems there is another file in play08:49
pittididrocks: confirmed08:50
larsudidrocks: strace it!08:50
* larsu hides08:50
pittididrocks: I see a lot of "Waiting..." in the unit status08:50
didrockslarsu: that's what I did, I got a suspicious file!08:50
didrockspitti: \o/08:50
larsuhaha, of course you did08:50
didrockslarsu: and I screwed my terminal with a tribar theme \o/08:51
Laneyahoy09:05
pittihey Laney, wie gehts?09:05
larsumorning Laney!09:05
willcookemorning09:05
* pitti waves hello to willcooke09:05
Laneyhey pitti larsu willcooke09:06
larsuhi willcooke09:06
larsusaying hi to everyone is O(n!)...09:08
pittilarsu: we all like superlinear algorithms, don't we!09:08
larsupitti: obviously ;)09:09
Laneygood reason to keep the team small :P09:09
pittididrocks: oh dear, yum upgrade takes aaages -- ETA 2.5 h..09:11
larsuLaney: how many people would we need to make saying good morning a day-filling activity?09:13
larsupitti: yum? I think you downloaded your image from the wrong website... :P09:14
didrockspitti: I wonder if I should bind the progress bar for the different plymouth themes to the fsck progress. This has never been done if I'm correct and will take quite some time to change all default plymouth themes which are going to be deprecated for this09:16
didrockspitti: I can just remove the "fsckd-cancel-msg:" prefix and for people who wants more integration, they can add the "update" support?09:16
didrockswdyt?09:16
Laneylarsu: reminds me of https://xkcd.com/1205/09:17
* Laney writes a script to say hello to you all every morning09:17
larsuhaha09:17
darkxstHey all09:22
darkxstLaney your script better be timezone aware ;)09:23
pittididrocks: what is "update support" in the context of the cancel msag?09:23
Laneygood ${part_of_day} ${nick}09:23
LaneyI like it when I get spams like that, where they messed up the interpolation09:24
darkxstLaney, or just put didrocks into the script, he gets it right ;)09:24
didrockspitti: seeing the current fsck progress09:24
didrockspitti: that's the update (%progress)09:25
didrockspitti: and none of plymouth theme implemented progress for fsckd (apart from ours)09:25
pittididrocks: ah, how is thaht related to the cancel message? that's just a string?09:25
pittididrocks: you mean you want to remove the machine readable data from fsckd?09:25
didrockspitti: no, just not showing it up on the default plymouth themes09:26
didrockspitti: basically on messages -> stripping fsckd-cancel-msg: prefix in the theme09:26
didrocks(that's the minimum patch we have to do, for each theme)09:26
didrockswe can add "if progress == 100% -> hide that cancel message"09:26
didrocksthen, there is the question of fsck progress itself (number of device, progress)09:27
didrocksthose were never shown before and won't be shown if we don't do anything to the default theme09:27
larsugood noon Laney!09:27
didrocksand I wonder how much effort we should put into that, knowing about plymouth future…09:27
* larsu needs to adjust his script09:27
larsudidrocks: how ready is consoled?09:28
didrockslarsu: I don't think it is yet for graphic themes09:28
didrockslarsu: however, I doubt showing up fsck progress is a future that default plymouth themes needs, as they never had it09:28
didrocksso only showing up "Press Control+C to cancel fsck…"09:29
didrocksand hide it if Control+C was pressed or if progress = 100%09:29
didrocksshould be enough09:29
larsuright09:29
didrocksit's already an improvement :)09:29
larsuesp since fsck doesn't take that long anymore on ssds09:29
* larsu hardly ever sees the message09:29
didrocksright, and the previous state was "well… you don't know"09:29
larsuhehe, right09:29
didrocks(talking about !ubuntu here)09:30
darkxstLaney, are you trying to hack my timezone? "* Received a CTCP TIME from Laney"09:30
Laney26/02 09:28:03 CTCP TIME reply from darkxst: Thu Feb 26 20:28:0309:30
Laneyhow else could you possibly implement this script!09:30
larsuI can't believe you're actually working on this09:30
larsuawesome.09:30
Laneyhaha, I'm not really09:31
LaneyI just remembered about ctcp09:31
Laneyif I was wasting my time like that I definitely wouldn't tell the world about it :)09:31
larsuyour logic checks out09:32
Laney. o O ( friday labs )09:32
* larsu reminds Laney that it's Thursday09:33
larsuman, no trolling even09:33
ochosiLaney: thanks for fixing evince's patch/fix-upload btw! only noticed today :)09:41
didrockspitti: basically, I was talking about this: http://paste.ubuntu.com/10425904/10:09
pittididrocks: oh nice, that'll fix it for all script theme?10:10
happyaronattente_, seb128, mind revisit the fcitx related merges?10:10
seb128happyaron, which ones?10:10
didrockspitti: no, this is only the base theme they provides, there is no framework/template10:11
happyaronseb128: in bug 136315010:11
ubot5bug 1363150 in unity-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) "[FFe] Fcitx input method integration in Unity" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/136315010:11
pittididrocks: ah, I thought it was some kind of common theme lib10:11
didrockspitti: but as told in the commit log, I'm not showing the fsck progress (as before), but you know that there is a fsck in progress thanks to the cancel message which shows/hide10:11
seb128happyaron, well, we have been working on that, you are welcome to help reviewing the u-s-d and u-c-c mps though :-)10:12
didrockspitti: if there is, I didn't spot it10:12
happyaronthanks, :)10:12
didrockspitti: and some themes are only showing the latest messages, some are showing up all of them (like here)10:12
didrockspitti: so, I don't think that should be bound in the script theme engine because of those various implementations ^10:14
pittididrocks: so you are saying you want to strip the fsckd-cancel-msg: prefix as most themes don't know about that special case, and most themes don't actually need to know?10:15
pitti(that sounds fine to me)10:15
pittididrocks: but I think it'd still be nice to keep the machine parseable progress10:15
didrockspitti: right, and hiding the message when progress = 100% or when user cancels fsck10:15
didrockspitti: what do you mean by keeping? it's passed in the update function, then if the theme doesn't do anything with it, it's just written in /dev/console anyway10:16
didrocks(or am I missing something?)10:16
pittididrocks: I thought I saw the machine-readable string in plain text mode (without plymouth)10:17
pittiif they don't appear in plymouth, then all is well indeed10:17
didrockspitti: yeah, I won't touch the text detail plugin and keep all data there10:18
didrocksok, so now on the C themes, implemting the same logic then10:18

cyphermoxali1234: I can review your changes to ubiquity. as far as testing go, you can replace files by stopping the live-cd booting before the session starts. For this particular issue with the panel it will mean building the binary first and then copying it to the installing system14:06
desrtgood morning14:32
didrockshey desrt14:33
* desrt went to harry potter yesterday :D14:34

kenvandineqengho, that works great!20:46
qengho:)20:53
kenvandineqengho, thanks a ton!21:13
kenvandinebregma, you should try out qengho's chromium PPA, nice hi-dpi fixes :)21:13
qenghoOr just wait a few days for normal update.21:14
bregmadoes it work out of the box, or does it require config changes?21:14
qenghobregma: er, display density is a configuration, but nothing else needed.21:15
bregmaOK21:15
kenvandinebregma, just worked for me21:15
qenghoI wish we didn't need to ask user what density in system settings, but too much hardware is wrong or outright lies through DDC.21:23
sarnold.. and many users like to customize their environments to fit their needs21:25
