jjfrv8dpkg -l xscreensaver00:56
jjfrv8whoops, did it again00:56
jjfrv8I can be excused though, I think I broke my main desktop after a clean install00:57
jjfrv8not sure what's going on yet but after about six or seven minutes, it hangs, monitors go blank as if in suspend mode, but machine is just hung, not suspended.00:58
jjfrv8also, but not as serious, after a reboot, I get a completely blank, white screen and I have to click the mouse to get the login prompt.01:03
jjfrv8so, elfy, you can consider this a 64-bit fail on hardware (jjf-desk-main). The thing won't stay up long enough for me to file a bug and put it on the tracker.01:10
jjfrv8that's it for tonight. tomorrow... restore from backup :(01:11

knomeyeah you did12:38
knomeso which of the bugs would you "highlight" on the announcement?12:39
elfyI don't know of anything earth shattering 12:39

elfythough I've only seen one random report of it from some guy :D12:40
knomehah12:40
elfy:)12:40
knomewas it ochosi or bluesabre who said "just running the notes plugin" would fix it12:40
knomeimplying they know that it can happen12:40
knome(it didn't help though)12:41
elfyright12:41
knomedid we get rid of the shutdown/boot problem?12:44
knomenot the livesession, the after-install12:44
knomeelfy, and if you can proofread the announcement part on the pad, great12:45
knomethat should be pretty good now from my side12:45
elfylook now12:45
knomeyeh, i notice :)12:45
elfyyep - ack that12:46

elfynope 12:47

nerdistmonkHas canonical lost their minds? I heard through the phoronix grape vine that they are dropping .deb and going to snappy? any clarification on this whopper?16:35
holsteini doubt upstream is dropping .deb anytime soon16:37
holsteinthere is a snappy core project..16:37
holsteinhttp://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/16:37
nerdistmonkUbuntu's Desktop-Next moving to snappy it says16:38
nerdistmonkthats on phoronix16:38
holsteini would probably /join and ubuntu dev community16:38
elfynerdistmonk: instead of asking in here - why not ask in #ubuntu-devel16:38
nerdistmonkdid i miss something here? is xubuntu not taking in any changes ubuntu makes to their core OS now?16:38
holsteinor the ubuntu mailing lists.. i bet the dev list there would have archives relevant that one could publically search16:38
holsteinnerdistmonk: debs are in 15.0416:39
elfynerdistmonk: we've not heard anything - and we'd ask in an Ubuntu channel rather than phoronix16:39
nerdistmonkand im trying to inform you they plan on changing that in 15.1016:39
holsteindebs are in debian.. i think there is a misunderstanding, or assumption somewhere.. but, im sure you can find facts and details upstream16:39
nerdistmonkXubuntu is ubuntu is it not? or did you guys jump ship and xubuntu is its own unique thing seperate from canonical?16:40
holsteincorrect.. xubuntu is an official flavor.. but, this is not the canonical community16:40
nerdistmonki dont care about ubuntu the distro, i care about the OS im currently planted on (xubuntu) suddenly being incompatible with debian packages. Sorry if i was having trouble relaying this concern to you. if its a ubuntu only issue, then who cares, as long as it does not spread to xubuntu which is what im worried about.16:42
elfynerdistmonk: also - Ubuntu-Next is not Ubuntu 16:42
holsteinyeah, they are just different projects..16:42
nerdistmonkok then16:42
nerdistmonkpanic /off16:42
holsteinpanic?16:42
holsteinone can always make ones own buntu.. no need for panic.. its *all* open16:42
nerdistmonkha right.16:43
davmor2nerdistmonk: if you want to know more about snappy and the plans moving forward the best place is #snappy  but there are a lot of things to work out for a snappy desktop and all the flavours will be taken into account if it moves that way16:43
nerdistmonk<<doesn't care about snappy as long as it stays far, far away from xubuntu devel install.16:44
elfythanks davmor2 16:44
holsteinnerdistmonk: sure.. its just that, there is no guarantee of that.. upstream debian could go with something that would trickle down, for example16:44
nerdistmonkdebian has zero plans to dump .deb16:45
nerdistmonkthis is _all_ canonical16:45
nerdistmonkbut as you all said, its only on their side project16:45
holsteinnerdistmonk: i never said they did.. *but* there are many parts of the system to "panic" about16:45
drcI don't have to put up with this crap16:45
elfynerdistmonk: really - please go and find out the reality16:45
holsteinthere is also the offtopic channel.. more appropriate for dicussion16:46
holstein!ot16:46
ubottu#xubuntu is the Xubuntu support channel, #xubuntu-devel for discussion regarding development of Xubuntu, and #xubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!16:46
drcI apologize...sorry16:53
elfy:)16:53
drcI plead senility (get off my lawn!)16:54
drcThe 15.04 release looks pretty good...DL was fast (torrent), ISO burn to USB was good, USB boot was good, install was good (restart button worked, but didn't ask me to remove media...is it still supposed to?).16:56
elfyit should16:57
elfyit asked me last time I checked hardware16:57
drcThe button has worked (but w/o asking) for me since at least B2.16:58
elfyright16:58
elfybiab16:58
Unit193bluesabre: Right, so how it works.  The lxpanel.pc file declared a dep on libmenu-cache-dev but 'lxpanel' doesn't declare this, so xfpm had to.  With lxpanel 0.7.1 this changed to libfm-dev and we didn't follow this (not really our fault, IMO)  However, adding that and rebuilding gives a ftbfs (linked) in the xfpm lxpanel plugin.18:46

Unit193cyphermox: Anywho, just noted, not really important I'd think.  Thanks.21:55
cyphermoxthe difference in which splash you get is not UEFI but the graphics driver.21:56

Unit193cyphermox: Nothing special.  UEFI systems that aren't unlocked, using the MS key, etc.22:06
Unit193cyphermox: I'm not likely using the same version of ovmf though.  Heh, have "fun"22:07
Unit193Locked down = secure boot.22:07
cyphermoxI don't mind it ;)22:07
* Unit193 shrugs.22:07
Unit193knome: Soooo, what do you want me to do with them now anywho? ;P22:11
knomewith core ISOs?22:12
Unit193Yea.22:12
knomedunno22:12
slickymasterwait until I finish to download https://unit193.net/xubuntu/xubuntu-core-15.04-i386.iso Unit193 22:13
Unit193slickymaster: Did a quick smoketest, everything should be good (didn't install it, but meh.)22:13
slickymasterI will tomorrow Unit193 22:14
slickymasterI'll let you know then what it went22:14
slickymasters/what/how22:14
Unit193Heh, alrighty-o!22:14
Unit193(It's been tested before, just not this spin.)22:14
slickymasteryeah, I tested one before22:15
Unit193Got the mir images up too, but those are hardly worthwhile now, IMO.22:15
ochosi(late) evening all22:35
slickymasterhey ochosi 22:35
Unit193Howdy, ochosi.22:36
ochosihmm, so snappy packages22:39
ochosiwe seem to have a problem with elementary xfce darkest not having a theme cache22:41

* drc looks for his shot gun and rock salt shells.22:41
ochosialso, i'm wondering whether we should get rid of the no-headerbars patches for 15.1022:43
ochosiafter all, they're going to work fine with or without compositor in the next release (with gtk3.16)22:43
bluesabreconsidering how silly headerbar apps look with a menu or titlebar on them, yeah22:47
Unit193considering how silly headerbar apps look22:48
bluesabre:D22:48
bluesabreguess there's no avoiding that simple truth22:48
ochosidunno, i personally don't mind their look in simple apps like evince22:49
ochosidoesn't work for everything or for all contexts22:49
bluesabre+122:49
ochosifor instance, catfish would work fine with headerbar22:50
ochosiparole not so much22:50
Unit193Well, GNOME says you're wrong and should rethink your life, so clearly you're wrong.22:50
ochosixfce4-settings-manager would work fine with headerbar too22:50
ochosithunar, maybe not so much22:50
bluesabre:D22:50
Unit193thunar 1.6.7-1 uploaded to experimental22:51
Unit193xfce4-power-manager 1.4.4-2 uploaded to experimental22:51
ochosibut also, the much acclaimed "visual inconsistency" doesn't hit me as hard as it used to22:51
ochosii think with focusing a bit more on making them look even more integrated, it could be just fine22:52
ochosieven ubuntu/ambiance did a quite OK job at that for 15.0422:52
ochosibluesabre or Unit193: could we get a package for xfpm-gtk3 (aka git master) soonish?22:58
ochosii have run into a bug i cannot debug and the OP isn't very helpful22:59
ochosi(i dont have a desktop at hand, and it seems that is needed)22:59
bluesabreprobably22:59
ochosii'm really lost with that bug23:01
ochosisomehow upower seems to fail to provide an icon, which is sorta okayish (although i guess it could just return some basic fallback instead), my catching that and providing a fallback doesnt seem too work at all23:01
bluesabrethat bites23:04
ochosithe only time i was able to test (desktop in vbox) the plugin totally crashed, so i still couldn't reproduce the bug23:04
ochosithat's the last bug holding me back from releasing 1.5.023:05
bluesabreI'll try to get the package up tonight then23:06
ochosii presume you don't have a desktop?23:07
ochosianyone else here, desktops?23:07
knomei have a desktop23:07
ochosiwould you be willing to test?23:07
knomenow, or later?23:07
ochosiwell, anytime really23:08
knomei can do that later, ping me tomorrow pretty much any time23:08
bluesabrenice23:08
ochosiok cool23:08
ochosiit's not hard to compile but ideally you'd need 15.0423:08
ochosicause of the depends23:08
knomei am on 15.0423:08
ochosiperfect23:09
ochosithen it's just a matter of cloning, apt-get build-dep and compiling23:09
bluesabreor grabbing from a ppa, potentially23:10
knomebluesabre, i like that23:10
ochosi:)23:11
ochosiUnit193: any reason we don't make -core isos more official?23:12
knomeochosi, testing23:12
Unit193ochosi: Because they're on unit193.net.23:12
ochosiknome: you mean lack thereof?23:12
Unit193Not using Canonical infra.23:13
knomeochosi, they would need testing, and it's not clear how that would be organized23:13
knomewe could use canonical infra, that's secondary imo23:13
Unit193knome: It's had some testing over the vivid cycle by more than just me, FWIW.23:14
ochosiyeah, also it's not *that different* after all23:15
ochosieither way, we could still announce it on xubuntu.org imo23:18
ochosifor now, as an exploratory "community project"23:18
ochosiand aim for making it more official for 15.1023:18
ochosiUnit193: thoughts ^ ?23:18
ochosialso, elfy ^ ?23:19
knomewhat if we tried to pump up the discussion during the WW devel cycle?23:19
ochosiyeah, that i'd wanna do either way23:19
ochosibut frankly, the few times -core was mentioned on g+, it generated very positive feedback23:19
ochosii think there is an audience for it23:19
knomewhat we need to discuss is the meta side23:19
ochosiif we manage to engage them for it as a community project now, maybe we'd have them as testers later23:20
knomeeg. is desktop still our flagship (should be), what kind of testing would -core need, etc23:20
ochosisure, i agree23:20
Unit193ochosi: My opinion?  In the past I've wanted to keep it unofficial because I didn't want to add more load to QA, but elfy seemed fine with it so I'm with whatever he says.  He did indicate it could be left at milestone testing too.23:28
ochosik, so let's discuss it with him first here and depending on the outcome, we can do the broader discussion knome indicated23:29
ochosipersonally i don't mind using x.org to announce community projects, especially if someone from our team is involved23:30
ochosi(in case we stick to the status of "community project")23:31
knomeas i see it, core is more than a community project already;23:31
knomeif you remove something that makes you lose -desktop, you are basically running core23:31
knomeso it's not like some weirdo off-center thing that only geeks use23:31
Unit193Just some weirdo-geek made it...23:31
Unit193knome: Right, but there's no official ISO for that.23:31
bluesabrexubuntu#!23:31
bluesabre:D23:32
bluesabreUnit193: we love the work that you sink into -core :)23:32
Unit193bluesabre: Thanks.  Also, the insanity I sink in? :P23:32
bluesabre:D23:34
Unit193ochosi: So going to socialize it? :P23:50
bluesabretake it to the distro park to play23:57
