KurtKrautWhat are the prospects of having Gnome 3.16 in Ubunto Gnome along with next Ubuntu release 15.04?02:52
=== KurtKraut is now known as kurtkraut
Noskcajkurtkraut, non-existant (except for a few non-core parts). We will have a PPA for 3.16 and *hopefully* 3.18 in 15.1006:35
darkxstNoskcaj, he left!06:38
Noskcajdarkxst, I hit tab and hoped, maybe he'llcome back06:44
darkxstwell he wouldnt see it anyway06:48
darkxstricotz, I think its best to keep the -g1 in webkit i386 specific atleast for gnome3-staging, the symbols are somewhat useless for local debugging (i'd likely use jhbuild for that), but they are useful on the crash retracer07:25
ricotzdarkxst, hi, that is fine, although passing -g1 does *not* mean there are no debug symbols at all07:27
darkxstricotz, no, but alot of the internal symbols will be stripped?07:28
ricotzi will keep it for all archs in the webkit ppa though to save hours of builtime and gigabytes of space ;)07:28
darkxstdoes it really affect the buildtime?07:28
ricotzdarkxst, it saves over an hour07:29
ricotzper build07:30
darkxstok07:31
ricotzi haven't compared stacktraces here, this is more a decision out of convenience07:32
darkxstricotz, hmm maybe -g1 has enough for automated stackstraces actually07:40
darkxstit mainly affects local symbols, which are often optimized out on the retracer anyway07:42
darkxstwell on the ubuntu builds07:42

* mgedmin will attempt to test the ISO \o/09:28
mgedminstill can't log in into http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/ :/09:29
darkxstmgedmin, fine here for me09:32
mgedminyes, my account is special somehow09:32
darkxstspecial as in it doesnt work?09:32
mgedminnobody else can reproduce this, and I can't get hold of any sysadmin who could look at the db contents and see what's wrong09:33
darkxstbugger09:33
mgedminI'm getting "account registration failed: the name is already taken" when I try to log in09:33
mgedminI had logged in successfully in the past09:33
mgedminhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-qa-website/+bug/141838309:34
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1418383 in Ubuntu QA Website "Log In tries to register a new user account for an existing user" [Undecided,New]09:34
darkxstmgedmin, I have no idea who deals with Ubuntu One SSO09:36
mgedminI think it's the QA website, not the SSO that has the problem09:37
mgedminI've no problems logging in to the wiki or to launchpad09:37
darkxsttry balloons or stgraber then09:38
mgedminiso.qa.ubuntu.com is Drupal, according to <meta name="generator">09:38
mgedminwhat's the appropriate channel?  I tried #ubuntu-quality in the past, didn't get noticed by any sysadmins09:38
darkxstyet it will have a plugin for ubuntu sso09:39
darkxstthey will be on #ubuntu-release09:39
darkxstor #ubuntu-devel09:40
darkxstmgedmin, though unfortunately the real sysadmins, are hidding behind a brick wall09:44
darkxstand you need to file RT tickets to get to them09:44
darkxstyou could try email rt@ubuntu.com09:45
darkxstand they may look into it sometime before 15.10!09:46
mgedmin"eventually" is fine with me :)09:47
mgedmin:( "Try Ubuntu GNOME without installing" is still not translated in the livecd menu09:47
darkxstmgedmin, did you submit translations?09:47
mgedminI got Colin Watson to merge the two missing translation strings to whatever-that-package-was-that-makes-these-translatable09:48
mgedminand I _think_ I made the translations in launchpad, but I'd better double-check09:49
* mgedmin digs out https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gfxboot-theme-ubuntu/+bug/1384188 and rediscovers the package name09:50
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1384188 in gfxboot-theme-ubuntu (Ubuntu) "Missing translations for 'Install Ubuntu GNOME' and 'Try Ubuntu GNOME without installing'" [Undecided,Fix released]09:50
mgedminit's translated since 2014-12-19: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/vivid/+source/gfxboot-theme-ubuntu/+pots/bootloader/lt/46/+translate09:51
mgedminand yet http://imgur.com/surOD7z :/09:52
mgedminoh09:55
mgedminsomebody needs to make a new gfxboot-theme-ubuntu with the new translations updated from Launchpad09:55
mgedmindo I file a new bug?09:56
mgedminho hum, Ubuntu Vivid Vervet gives me a text login on tty1 if I boot it in kvm10:00
mgedmintty7 has this: http://i.imgur.com/n2mOUFf.png10:01
mgedminbtw am I testing the right image? "Beta (20150326)"10:01
mgedmintestdrive's rsync was from rsync://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/ubuntu-gnome/daily-live/current/vivid-desktop-i386.iso10:01
mgedmincan't log in with username 'ubuntu' and either blank password or trying 'ubuntu' as the password10:03
mgedminah, the username is 'ubuntu-gnome'10:04
mgedminI could boot the livecd session on real hardware, but I don't have a spare hard disk to test actual installation10:05
mgedminok, Xorg.0.log says it's trying these drivers: cirrus, cirrus, modesetting, fbdev, vesa10:11
mgedmincirrus bails out because "The PCI device ... has a kernel module claiming it; this driver cannot operate until it has been unloaded"10:11
mgedminmodeset tries to load glamor, fails10:12
mgedminseems to configure a 1024x768 screen fine10:12
mgedminthen aiglx reverts to software rendering10:12
mgedminand then there"s a "Fatal server error: failed to create screen resources"10:13
mgedminI can't find anything about qemu compatibility issues in vivid's release notes10:16
mgedminI'm not sure I can find vivid's release notes...10:16
mgedminhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/VividVervet/Beta2/UbuntuGNOME is what I checked10:16
darkxstmgedmin, software fallback is know to be broken on drivers that provide half-arsed GL support10:33
mgedminso there's no way to test in a VM then?10:34
* mgedmin braces for the inevitable vmware suggestion10:34
darkxstmgedmin, which VM?10:34
mgedminkvm would be my preference, but I also have virtualbox installed10:34
darkxstnot sure about kvm, qemu should work10:35
mgedminsame thing, afaiu10:35
darkxstvirtualbox is tainted crap, I would rather use (and do) vmware than that10:35
mgedminvagrant is the only reason I use virtualbox10:35
darkxstvirtualbox requires proprietry blobs on host for gl to work10:37
mgedminok, I tried all four possible -vga options passed to qemu cirrus, std, qxl, vmware); all fail10:37
darkxstmgedmin, smells like something is snuffed on your host10:39
darkxstthen again I havent booted qemu this cycle10:40
mgedmin-vga cirrus worked fine last cycle10:40
mgedminwell, there were those strange drawing artefacts sometimes10:41
mgedminbut at least I could complete the test10:41
darkxstin reality vmware is the closest you can get to real hardware testing10:41
darkxstdespite the apparent claims of gpl violation in ESXi10:42
mgedminI don't suppose I can apt-get install vmware?10:44
darkxstmgedmin, no, but there installer is ok10:45
darkxstqemu often gets bugged out by dody libvirt patches in ubuntu10:45

amjjawaddarkxst,23:37
darkxstamjjawad, hi23:38
amjjawadhi darkxst23:38
amjjawadmy whole body is in pain (slept 2 hours only)23:41
amjjawadI chatted with infinity late at night and as per his tests, the installation didn't crash on him like it did with me23:41
amjjawadand he didn't want to re-spin23:41
amjjawadI was so unsure how to go ahead with that while it broke on my testing :( I see them ready now but I don't think they're yet :(23:42
amjjawadOk, VB crashed again on me!!!23:44
darkxstI wouldnt consider virtualbox a blocker, especially when there has not been widespread reproduction23:44
amjjawadnever had that :'(23:44
darkxstamjjawad, do youself a favour and download vmware player23:44
amjjawadit broke now again23:44
amjjawadin the repo?23:44
darkxstno you have to get it from the vmware site and run the installer23:45
darkxstbut it is free for personal use, and infinitely better than virtualbox23:45
amjjawadhttp://www.vmware.com/au ?23:45
darkxsthttps://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/free#desktop_end_user_computing/vmware_player/7_023:46
darkxst(it may need a small patch if you are running on 15.04 host though)23:46
darkxstgtg, be back in a bit23:46
amjjawadtyt darkxst23:47
