ogra_cjwatson, what Laney wants is a seed for the vivid+overlay phone PPA ... i wonder if that actually makes sense now that we will use that setup long term09:50
ogra_Laney, if only i knew :) i guess for the interim thats still me09:50
LaneyWell you've just seen confusion with the seed branches; I was wondering if we could avoid that09:51
ogra_long term the phone team needs to grow some core-devs or we need to make it easy for sponsos09:51

mptdiwic, hi. Is the HDMI audio situation still as you described in <http://voices.canonical.com/david.henningsson/2012/04/14/audio-over-hdmi-and-displayport-in-ubuntu-12-04/>, where you can’t tell whether audio should go to an HDMI-connected display?11:27
doko_xnox, well, turning this on by default would be wrong11:29
* dholbach hugs mdeslaur11:29
xnoxdoko_: yeah, also binutils breaks.11:30
diwicmpt, most of the stuff still holds11:32
diwicmpt, even for newer stuff like haswell and broadwell, there are usually several audio ports11:33
diwicmpt, but I guess slightly more often the vendors are polite enough to mark two out of the tree as unused11:33
diwicmpt, I'm not sure that answers your question - could you be more specific?11:33

rbasakpitti: you might be interested in bug 1457957. I tagged it systemd-boot as it's a consequence of the switch, but it's perhaps an upstream issue to keep up.12:08
ubottubug 1457957 in puppet (Ubuntu) "puppet uses upstart for service status checks in vivid" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/145795712:08
pittirbasak: thanks for the heads-up. I followed up12:14
mptdiwic, for the pocket PC, when you connect a phone to an MHL display, normally you’ll want audio to be played through that display’s speakers. If that isn’t automatic, we’ll need more settings UI than if it is automatic.12:25
ogra_mpt, and how do you know that MHL display is a display with physical speakers attached ?12:26
ogra_a normal monitor with MHL wont tell you ... and will most likely not have any speakers12:26
ogra_(a TV with MHL wont tell you either but that will at least have builtin speakers)12:27
=== _salem is now known as salem_
rbasakpitti: thanks. Also bug 1457886 - probably invalid since kernel commandline is used (and permitted to be used) for anything, including for plymouth(?) to pay attention to the "splash" argument?12:29
ubottubug 1457886 in init-system-helpers (Ubuntu) "Init program start with unknown arg splash " [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/145788612:29
mptogra_, yay, it’s nice to know that new hardware interfaces repeat the mistakes of their predecessors :-]12:29
rbasakpitti: I'm not confident enough in the internals there to triage that though, although I think I know what's going on.12:29
ogra_mpt, heh, yeah ... well, i dont think the designers of the EDID specification thought about routing audio through video cables when they designed EDID back when VGA was a thing :)12:30
ogra_but even if the EDID info could tell you that the display is audio capable you wont know if there are actual pysical speakers12:31
mptYeah, it’s not like any displays had built-in speakers in 199412:31
diwicmpt, to sum up, the problems are two-fold here - one is that we have some "unused" HDMI ports that the driver reports as being there but unconnected. That can likely be fixed on a per-hardware basis, so if we do a pocket PC we can put in a driver patch for that.12:34
pittirbasak: this looks like serious PEBCAK; I followed up and subscribed, but probably non-sense12:34
diwicmpt, what ogra_ is talking about is harder, i e, figuring out whether or not there are speakers on an HDMI (or DP, or MHL) connection.12:34
diwicmpt, that said I'm not very familiar with MHL at all.12:34
ogra_i thionk you shoould keep audio on the phone spakers for now12:35
mptdiwic, so, we will need UI for whether to use the display’s speakers or not12:35
ogra_and rather offer a UI to the user to switch back and forth12:35
ogra_or a popup pn MHL connection asking if you want to re-route the sound to the display12:36
rbasakpitti: I was under the impression that the kernel gave /sbin/init the kernel commandline in argv too? Maybe not. Anyway, my uncertainty is why I referred to you. Thanks :)12:36
pittirbasak: it looks like he tried something like init="/sbin/init splash"12:36
diwicmpt, like the unity-system-settings in v14.04 desktop already does, so I'm assuming your talking about something else?12:36
pittirbasak: ah, it indeed seems to do that (everything after init=)12:37
pittirbasak: but then I still fail to understand what the problem is12:37
mptdiwic, yes, ubuntu-system-settings on the phone12:37
diwicmpt, ok12:38
rbasakpitti: what the problem is> yeah - inits are designed to get random stuff from the kernel commandline, and random stuff uses the kernel commandline. So traditionally not-understood arguments are just ignored and that should be fine.12:42

smoserLaney, gnome-terminal "Apply fix from Ed Catamur to wait on the server instead of the client in --disable-factory mode. This is compatible with previous versions of gnome-terminal." .13:47
smoserthat changed the default behavior of gnome-terminal to block. was that intended ?13:47
Laneyonly if you pass --disable-factory13:47
Laneyyes13:47
smoserfor me it blocks always13:47
Laneyit shouldn't go into that path then, if it does then that's a bug13:48
Laneywill look shortly13:48
smoserie, just with 'gnome-terminal'13:48
Laneysmoser: ah right, I think I messed up a conditional, thanks for noticing!13:52
smoserLaney, thanks for bringing 'disable-factory' back.13:55
smoseri do like it.13:55
Laneysmoser: np - I'm surprised that quite a lot of people seem to use it14:00
LaneyI thought it would just be pleasing like 5 geeks :)14:00
Laneycan you try lp:~ubuntu-desktop/gnome-terminal/ubuntu ?14:00
larsusmoser, Laney: gnome-terminal (without arguments) is supposed to block until you close that terminal, no?14:00
Laneynot upstream14:00
larsusame with gedit14:00
LaneyI only intended to override their behaviour when you give --disable-factory14:01
LaneyWe could do it always but I didn't think about that yet14:02
larsuI was pretty sure that this is what it does upstream. Discussed this with desrt countless times14:05
larsulet me see14:06
smoserlarsu, that would be sane behavior. but 'disable-factory' became necessary probably in the 12.04 time frame.14:09
smoserotherwise 'gnome-terminal' would talk to the factory, create a window, and return immediately.14:09
smoserthen, upstream removed 'disable-factory'.14:09
larsusmoser: it seems to do that upstream, but that's totally wrong. It should block until the tab/window it opened is closed14:10
smoserlarsu, well, arbitrarily changing back and forth in ubuntu is not helpful to people.14:10
LaneyOK, I'm not trying to fix that now though, we can work that through upstream14:11
larsusmoser: ya, Laney is working hard on keeping compatibility, but it's not easy. Lots of upstream changes and *many* use cases14:11
smoserand differing with upstream isnt either. i personally think the behavior of "block unless otherwise told to" is better. but that is different than it is in 14.04, 14.10 and upstream.14:11
smoserjust for random bit of information... https://gist.github.com/smoser/1ee3f2b223717625c5f414:12
smoserthat is my garbage "xvim" which launches ggnome-terminal -e vim. and blocks even without --disable-factory (ie, you have to have that in 14.10 if you want pentadactyl ctrl-i to work or something like that).14:13
larsucrazy. I'll look into it upstream14:18
dokoinfinity, gccgo, did we have any successful builds in wily?14:22
infinitydoko: Not a lot of go packages to test that theory with, but the tree I can spot (nuntium, lxd, and docker.io) haven't built successfully since vivid, no.15:04
Mirvmitya57: I think modifying that patch alone didn't help alone as the other patches make the switch from pie to pic and our core problem was the reduce relocations breaking unity8. but I can't now remember whether I tried to enable the two other patches only while not setting the reduce relocations option. and I guess I should try gcc5 too even before it's made the default so that it's known whether we'll need some linker expert15:06
Mirvmitya57: sorry for the delay, my afternoon got quite swamped suddenly15:07
