attentei can't seem to log into a unity8 session from the unity8 lock screen. every time i enter my password, it just resets back to the lock screen14:13
attentethis is on desktop btw14:14
seb128attente, unity8/mir don't handle keyboard layouts, so make sure you type what you think you are typing14:22
=== Malsasa_ is now known as Malsasa
seb128you are probably qwerty, but in case you have a difference on some symbol or something you are using14:22
attenteseb128: i haven't had this problem before, and wouldn't it show an error saying incorrect password? also my password is short and contains no special characters14:24
seb128no, it doesn't show an error14:24
seb128it just "wobble"14:25
seb128I often have the issue typing my password in azerty :p14:25
seb128is that a recent issue? on wily?14:25
attenteoh. it didn't wobble for me14:25
seb128I didn't try unity8 this week, I can update and try in a bit14:25
attentesure, yeah, this is in wily14:26
attentequite a lot of errors in the log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11953881/14:35
seb128ChrisTownsend, ^ you test unity8/wily regularly, did you get login issues?14:42
ChrisTownsendseb128: No, not as of yesterday.14:43
ChrisTownsendHmm, Mir issues it seems.14:43
ChrisTownsendattente: Do you have mir-graphics-drivers-desktop installed?14:44
ChrisTownsendYou should, but just checking.14:44
ChrisTownsendNevermind, you're at the Unity8 lockscreen, so you do14:45
attenteChrisTownsend: were you able to reproduce it?14:45
ChrisTownsendattente: Give me a sec and I'll reboot my test system.14:45
ChrisTownsendattente: It still works fine for me.14:47
ChrisTownsendattente: It seems it lost track of the Scopes surface.  Anything in the unity8-dash.log file?14:48
attenteChrisTownsend: this is what i have: http://paste.ubuntu.com/11953951/14:49
ChrisTownsendattente: In your unity8.log, this seems to be where it falls down:14:50
ChrisTownsendg_dbus_connection_real_closed: Remote peer vanished with error: Underlying GIOStream returned 0 bytes on an async read (g-io-error-quark, 0). Exiting.14:50
ChrisTownsendSignal caught by Mir, stopping Mir server..14:50
=== dandrader is now known as dandrader|afk
ChrisTownsendNot sure why that is happening.14:51
ChrisTownsendgreyback_: Any ideas about what's happening w/ attente's session? ^^^^14:52
greyback_hmm no idea, but that dbus fail looks relevant14:54
greyback_I'll update my wily machine to see if I can repro14:54
mhall119kgunn: kdub: can we get a blog post talking about what's new in Mir 0.14 and coming in 0.15 on unity.ubuntu.com please?14:57
kgunncamako__: ^14:57
* kdub wouldnt mind writing something14:58
camako__Blog post? Was there some external interest in seeing this info in a blog?14:59
davmor2kdub: you just did /me quotes "kdub wouldnt mind writing something"15:03
kdubdavmor2, yes?15:05
davmor2kdub: but that is writing something :P15:06
kdubah :)15:06
* kdub wouldnt mind writing this, and writing something else15:06
davmor2hahah15:08
greyback_mhall119: hey, silo0 is working fine, pocket-desktop is functional in there15:16
mhall119greyback_: ok, I'll try it again15:16
mhall119greyback_: it's not turned off for mako for some reason is it?15:16
greyback_mhall119: nope, I have it working on my mako right now15:18
greyback_mhall119: please use hte cltrain tool to enable it, so the right packages are installed15:18
mhall119greyback_: does the display work properly on an external monitor, or is it just the keyboard/mouse switching on desktop mode that's working?15:20
greyback_mhall119: all of the above15:20
mhall119cool, I don't have BT mouse or keyboard yet, but I'll try the display part15:21
greyback_mhall119: it will change to desktop mode when you plug in the display. Thanks for trying it out!15:23
camako__mhall119, is this where I post for Mir 0.14?15:32
camako__https://unity.ubuntu.com/blog/15:32
=== dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader
mhall119camako__: yes, if you don't have access to /wp-admin/ let me know15:49
camako__mhall119, Thanks. I seem to have access after logging in.15:49
mhall119greyback_: oh, that's some nice progresss :)16:00
mhall119it doesn't crash when I plug it in to HDMI, it auto-rotates on the phone and has the right orientation on the TV16:01
greyback_mhall119: we've a long way to go with window management, but yeah hte basics are there16:01
greyback_yay for not crashing! :)16:01
mhall119the scopes app has the header cut off on the phone, and it's not filling the TV screen properly, but it's closer16:01
greyback_mhall119: yeah, several apps are too tall for phone landscape16:02
mhall119on the TV it seems to be shifted about 20% down and to the left16:02
greyback_I'm unsure what to do there16:02
greyback_yeah, it's the same image as on the phone screen, which has smaller resolution16:02
greyback_on nexus7 it looks better16:02
greyback_as resolutions almost 1080p there16:03
mhall119greyback_: really the grid units setting should change at runtime to match the external display16:03
greyback_mhall119: that is easier said than done16:03
mhall119I figured16:03
greyback_but yeah, that would be the plan16:03
mhall119greyback_: as for what to do, file bugs, lots of them :)16:03
mhall119against the SDK, the apps, etc16:03
mhall119if we should just change the GU to use fewer pixels when plugged in, that would probably help with apps fitting on scren16:04
greyback_mhall119: sure, but the grid units have never changed at runtime before, I'm not sure if the SDK guys have that in mind16:06
* mhall119 will go and ask16:06
camako__mhall119, I created something simple ---> https://unity.ubuntu.com/2015/07/28/whats-new-in-mir-0-14/16:17
camako__Feel free to hook it where you want16:18
mhall119camako__: perfect, thanks!16:18
mhall119camako__: FYI, you need to put blog posts in the Articles category for them to show up on https://unity.ubuntu.com/blog/, I've just done that for yours17:00

camako__mhall19, ok will do that next time. Thanks17:22
josharensonmterry: where is the file that specifies what session is started after a user logs in? Not seeing it in /etc/lightdm or /usr/shar/lightdm18:04
mterryjosharenson, new-style folder for that is /usr/share/lightdm/sessions.  Old-style folder is /usr/share/xsessions/18:06
mterryjosharenson, the default is configured via /etc/lightdm.conf.d/*18:06
mterryjosharenson, or /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d18:06
mterryjosharenson, and the user can have their own setting for that saved in accountsservice18:06
josharensonmterry: ok cool, thanks.18:07
greyback_attente: it took me a long time to get a chance to try it, but my newly updated wily does let me log into unity8. So unfortunately something must be wrong on your end18:27
attentegreyback__, ok, thanks18:59
