| seb128 | good morning desktopers | 06:27 |
| larsu | didrocks: bonjour! ça va? | 06:27 |
| larsu | oh aussi seb128! How are you? | 06:27 |
| seb128 | hey larsu, I'm good thanks, how are you? | 06:27 |
| didrocks | larsu: ça va bien :) | 06:27 |
| didrocks | et toi ? | 06:27 |
| larsu | seb128: great! Fixed gnome-logs boot menu for the 99.999% case late last night | 06:27 |
| larsu | boot menu showed 0 entries when there's only one boot | 06:28 |
| larsu | instead of ... you know ... 1 | 06:28 |
| larsu | didrocks: nickel! merci | 06:28 |
| larsu | pitti: morning :) Do you know if we can get the journal to keep the most recent N logs? | 06:29 |
| larsu | I see the point of not storing all of them, but having the last after a crash is probably useful | 06:29 |
| pitti | hey larsu | 06:29 |
| pitti | larsu: sure, just enable persistent journal, see /usr/share/doc/systemd/README.Debian | 06:30 |
| larsu | I think I did this with `mkdir /var/log/journal` | 06:30 |
| larsu | but according to its man page, it now stores everything, no? | 06:30 |
| pitti | larsu: or just look at syslog, if you have that installed (I enabled persistant journal and uninstalled rsyslog) | 06:30 |
| pitti | well, everything up to the size limits | 06:31 |
| larsu | ah | 06:31 |
| larsu | cool | 06:31 |
| larsu | that makes sense | 06:31 |
| larsu | thanks :) | 06:31 |
| seb128 | hey pitti | 06:31 |
| pitti | ça va seb128 ! | 06:31 |
| seb128 | pitti, bien! et toi ? | 06:31 |
| * larsu removes rsyslog as well - no need to keep *that* many logs | 06:31 | |
| pitti | seb128: je vais bien aussi, merci ! j'ai dormi bien à nouveau | 06:31 |
| seb128 | ah, bonne nouvelle | 06:32 |
| pitti | larsu: if you already have a persistant journal, then you should already see the previous boot -- try "journalctl -b -1" | 06:32 |
| larsu | I do now, yes | 06:32 |
| * larsu only noticed because gnome-logs is buggy in that case | 06:32 | |
| larsu | didrocks: so.... I'm actually eating a croissant with chocolate inside right now (sorry) | 07:24 |

| seb128 | hey darkxst | 08:12 |
| seb128 | willcooke, so you posted the compiz/unity blog? now any plan to run the bot to close bugs before people waste effort on triaging those manually? ;-) | 08:14 |
| willcooke | seb128, yeah, didrocks said he has some bots which can help | 08:16 |
| seb128 | willcooke, that was not prepared before sending the post? :-/ | 08:17 |
| willcooke | seb128, I want to allow time for people to find out that a robot is going to start closing their bugs so we don't get a sudden influx of "Hey, why did you close my bug" questions. | 08:20 |
| larsu | willcooke: you'll get that either way, sadly | 08:20 |
| willcooke | I dont think a gap of some days/a week is going to be a huge problem | 08:20 |
| willcooke | larsu, yeah, probably true | 08:20 |
| larsu | it helps if the closing comment contains "feel free to reopen if this is still an issue" | 08:20 |
| willcooke | but if I can point to some public information that was published before we actioned it | 08:20 |
| larsu | indeed | 08:21 |
| willcooke | then we have a robust defence | 08:21 |
| darkxst | you don't need a robot to close bugs, just 10 lines of python ;) | 08:21 |
| larsu | I agree that this way around is better | 08:21 |
| larsu | darkxst: that's what we call robots these days | 08:21 |
| larsu | or ... you know .... "bots" | 08:21 |
| willcooke | you kids, and your slang | 08:21 |
| darkxst | larsu, its ok, I have a bot | 08:21 |
| larsu | heh | 08:22 |
| seb128 | willcooke, right, it doesn't mean we couldn't have got the solution ready before posting :-) | 08:24 |

| larsu | blame Trevinho, then ;) | 12:57 |
| popey | \o/ | 12:57 |
| didrocks | larsu: it's a little bit more complicated than that | 12:57 |
| didrocks | larsu: so, you press alt, you have the locally integrated menu appearing | 12:57 |
| larsu | oh! | 12:58 |
| larsu | haha | 12:58 |
| Trevinho | larsu: yeah... that would be also without LIM in geneeral | 12:58 |
| didrocks | then, you press Print Screen | 12:58 |
| larsu | this is gold :D | 12:58 |
| didrocks | you have the effect of fading to the menu again | 12:58 |
| didrocks | and gnome-screenshot starts | 12:58 |
| Trevinho | by pressing Alt in general unity shows the menus (also global ones) | 12:58 |
| didrocks | yep | 12:58 |
| didrocks | interesting, gnome-screenshot only execute when you release alt | 12:59 |
| didrocks | so, if you press alt + print screen, keep alt pressed | 12:59 |
| didrocks | gnome-screenshot is only executed when alt is released | 12:59 |
| didrocks | so, can't easily avoid that, or the screenshotting need to be in unity to control the rendering | 13:00 |

| Newww | Developers! Please add the following item. On windows there is a convenient option to specify a file for download in the form http links. Example https://pp.vk.me/c629117/v629117790/eee0/LRcvOplaV8I.jpg I want to upload the file to the file sharing. This file is located on another server. On windows I can provide a link to a file that is dialog box itself will load the file into a temporary folder, and select it. | 13:31 |
| === JMulholland_ is now known as JMulholland | ||
| Newww | On Unity, I have to first download the file to, and then specify the file. | 13:31 |
| larsu | Newww: to upload, you can use nautilus' "Connect to server" feature. You can then select that server from the sidebar | 13:32 |
| Newww | larsu: No, I just want to dialog supported http links, not just local files. | 13:34 |
| larsu | not sure I understand. Do you want to open http links in an app or upload files to some http server while saving? | 13:35 |
| Newww | I want to open http links in an app, Some apps such links, and some do not, like the chrome or firefox. | 13:37 |
| larsu | all apps using gvfs should support this just fine | 13:37 |
| larsu | gedit works, for example | 13:37 |
| * larsu opens google.com in gedit and feels awesome | 13:38 | |
| Newww | More specifically, I want to choose the file to something from another server directly to the dialog box itself elected him, loaded into a temporary folder. So much faster than most. | 13:39 |
| Newww | Yes, it works to open, but not selected. Chrome or firefox not support this, but windows I often use it, it is convenient and reduces time. | 13:41 |
| Newww | Little such detail that really need :) | 13:42 |
| larsu | ah, so you do want it the other way around. I don't think that works unless you add a server in nautilus | 13:43 |
| didrocks | bye unity-panel-service, you didn't need to take 98% of my CPU IMHO | 13:44 |
| larsu | didrocks: probably it's doing something important | 13:45 |
| larsu | don't interrupt it! | 13:45 |
| didrocks | larsu: ofc! | 13:45 |
| qengho | Newww: is this only in web browsers that you can paste a location of a remote resource? Is it a place you normally type a local file name? | 13:45 |
| larsu | it started displaying very small fonts for me recently | 13:46 |
| Newww | Adding a server is not necessary, there are so many different servers, each adding it's inconvenient. It seems to me that you do not understand me a little bit. | 13:46 |
| Newww | qengho: Exactly! | 13:47 |
| qengho | I'm guessing that the file selector on Windows is less strict. A web page asks for a file to upload. You don't pick a file, but instead paste a URL. Windows' browser sends that text string to the remote end, which processes it magically. Ubuntu's file selector makes sure you are sending a file. | 13:49 |
| mdeslaur_ | mpt: excellent comment, I didn't properly handle that. I've proposed a new order, could you take another look? https://code.launchpad.net/~mdeslaur/indicator-power/fix-priorities/+merge/260903 | 13:50 |
| Newww | qengho: On windows dialog box downloads the file on this link -> saves it to a temporary folder -> select the downloaded file. | 13:53 |
| qengho | Oh. Weird. | 13:53 |
| Newww | But it is logical and very comfortable. Other programs like Krita allow you to select a file link, but do the same thing, first download, and then inserted into the program. | 13:55 |
| larsu | hm? Now we're talking about downloading again? | 13:56 |
| Newww | I mean, Krita itself downloading a file link. | 13:58 |
| Newww | Although I'm not sure, maybe it makes the dialog box. Then why does not he do it for the web browser? | 13:59 |

| popey | willcooke: hey, please add bug 1496414 to your super important list of bugs which must be fixed for 16.04, kthx :) | 14:10 |
| ubot5 | bug 1496414 in unity (Ubuntu) "Window screenshots contain blurred titlebar with LIM" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1496414 | 14:10 |
| seb128 | lol | 14:10 |
| seb128 | popey, unsure that's easy to solve/worth the effort | 14:11 |
| seb128 | you can use the gnome-screenshot UI instead of the keybinding to workaround it | 14:11 |
| willcooke | popey, done. Please leave the money in the usual place. | 14:11 |
| popey | its a regression introduced with LIM | 14:11 |
| willcooke | seb128, I've added the rls-w-incoming tag ;) | 14:11 |
| popey | it _should_ have been fixed releases ago | 14:11 |
| seb128 | willcooke, fair enough, I'm just saying that I bet some money that it's not fixed for the LTS ;-) | 14:11 |
| popey | working around a default keyboard shortcut because the default keyboard shortcut we ship is broken seems.. broken | 14:12 |
| seb128 | popey, not sure we can call that regression, it was always there with LIM, you disable LIM you are back to what we had | 14:12 |
| seb128 | note that LIM is not default | 14:12 |
| popey | true, so not a regression, but LIM breaks screenshots, and LIM is on the CD by default | 14:13 |
| popey | anyway, lets see if someone steps up to fix it | 14:13 |
| seb128 | I doubt it | 14:13 |
| seb128 | but let's see | 14:13 |
| popey | :( | 14:13 |
| seb128 | out of changing the default keybinding to be e.g shift+printscreen | 14:13 |
| seb128 | but that's a workaround | 14:13 |
| seb128 | if you set to alt it's going to have the issue again | 14:13 |
| popey | indeed, all workarounds | 14:13 |
| popey | I suspect it can be fixed by changing the timing for how quickly the titlebar fades back | 14:14 |
| popey | maybe a few ms difference could fix it | 14:14 |
| mpt | mdeslaur_, this terminology predates your change, but I can’t judge your proposal because I don’t understand the distinction between “1. discharging items…” “5. batteries” and “7. non-line power” | 14:15 |
| mpt | Should “batteries” be “fully-charged batteries”? | 14:15 |
| mpt | And is “non-line power” just a UPS, or does it cover batteries in some situations too? | 14:16 |
| seb128 | popey, changing the animation might mean compromising on what we think is the best visual experience just for a screenshoter bug easy to workaround, doesn't seem a good deal | 14:16 |
| seb128 | we could also delay the screenshot | 14:16 |
| seb128 | but at the price of making it less reactive, which would bug users would want to take a screenshot of a state of something changing | 14:17 |
| charles | mpt, hello | 14:17 |

| seb128 | sethj, likely good to be closed | 14:22 |
| larsu | this blog post worked... | 14:23 |
| charles | mpt, 'non-line power' is a bad term that mdeslaur_ seems to have gotten from a comment I wrote, it's my fault :) | 14:23 |
| charles | mpt, iirc, and from looking at the code, it's shorthand for upower 'kinds' that aren't battery or line power, e.g. | 14:24 |
| seb128 | larsu, what blog post? | 14:24 |
| charles | mpt, keyboard, mouse | 14:24 |
| larsu | seb128: willcooke's | 14:25 |
| seb128 | larsu, oh :-) | 14:25 |
| larsu | seems like more bug activity today | 14:25 |
| seb128 | right | 14:25 |
| charles | mpt, so it mean "everything else after batteries and line power", maybe mdeslaur_ will be kind enough to tweak my comment when he pushes the revision you suggested :-) | 14:26 |
| mpt | sethj, it’s a side-effect of bug 76416. Basically Unity has some bug reports filed against the project, some against the package, some against both at once. That one was filed against both, and marked fixed for one, never marked fixed for the other. | 14:26 |
| ubot5 | bug 76416 in Launchpad itself "Poor handling of a distribution being its own upstream for a package" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/76416 | 14:26 |
| sethj | mpt, so if I can't reproduce it should I mark it invalid or fix released? | 14:27 |
| mdeslaur_ | charles, mpt: ok, so it looks like "batteries" means "fully charged batteries", and non-line power is "all other devices" | 14:28 |
| mpt | sethj, so it’s good to look at both bug lists: <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity> and <https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity> | 14:28 |
| mpt | If it’s marked fixed for one, it’s almost certainly fixed for the other too, especially if it happened years ago. :-) | 14:29 |
| mdeslaur_ | charles, mpt: actually, "non-line power" would mean "fully charged other devices" | 14:29 |
| mdeslaur_ | I assume if something isn't charging or discharging it's fully-charged...but perhaps that assumption is wropng | 14:29 |
| sethj | mpt, cool. Thanks for the lists tip, I hadn't thought of that xD | 14:31 |
| willcooke | sethj, you good to mark that bug as Fix Released? | 14:32 |
| mdeslaur_ | right, it can be "unknown" too | 14:32 |
| sethj | willcooke, yup, I can't reproduce it, and I have never experienced it either. | 14:32 |
| willcooke | thanks sethj | 14:33 |
| sethj | looks like this bug is in the same position: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/977984 | 14:33 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 977984 in unity (Ubuntu Precise) "Quicklists and tooltips sometimes lose their blur" [High,Confirmed] | 14:33 |
| mdeslaur_ | charles, mpt: "5- batteries that are neither charging nor discharging", "7- all other devices that are neither charging no discharging", "8- Line power" | 14:34 |
| mpt | sethj, yep. Maybe willcooke can get those bug reports with conflicting states cleaned up as a batch. | 14:34 |
| sethj | that seems like it would be a good idea. | 14:35 |
| charles | mdeslaur_, mpt, in meeting, but ^ 5 7 8 sound good (but typo 's/no/not/' on 7) | 14:35 |
| willcooke | mpt, sethj - good plan | 14:35 |
| willcooke | I'll add it to my script | 14:35 |
| willcooke | should be easy enough, once I've worked out why I keep getting " Resource is not bound to any representation, and no media media type was specified." | 14:36 |
| larsu | that's because the resource is not bound to any representation! duh!! | 14:38 |
| mpt | willcooke, at my suggestion unity8 switched to tracking bugs on just the package (bug 1364477). Maybe Unity 7 can do the same, unless there’s some SRU-related reason to keep them separate. | 14:38 |
| ubot5 | bug 1364477 in Unity 8 "Unity 8 has two unsynced bug lists" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1364477 | 14:38 |
| willcooke | mpt, I'll look in to it, thanks | 14:39 |
| mpt | charles, so should it be “7. fully-charged keyboard/mouse”? | 14:41 |
| mpt | charles, and “8. UPS”? | 14:42 |
| mdeslaur_ | mpt: 7 is unknown, ups, monitor, mouse, keyboard, pda, phone, edia player, tablet and computer | 14:42 |
| mpt | So what is “line power” then? :-) | 14:42 |
| mdeslaur_ | "line power" means a power supply | 14:42 |
| mdeslaur_ | AC | 14:43 |
| mdeslaur_ | Which I have no idea why we would want to display | 14:43 |
| mdeslaur_ | oh, we don't display it, it's special-case elsewhere | 14:45 |

| desrt | cute: mount -o bind /home /mnt; mount -o bind /home/desrt /mnt | 15:19 |
| desrt | what do you think this does? | 15:19 |
| desrt | the correct answer, of course is "replace the contents of /home with /home/desrt" | 15:19 |
| desrt | ie: /home/desrt stops existing and /home now contains my homedir, directly | 15:20 |
| desrt | this is not how i thought bind mounts worked..... | 15:21 |
| larsu | desrt: what did you expect? | 15:29 |
| didrocks | I guess he expected to have /mnt containg /home/desrt and having the /home bindmount "shadowed" | 15:33 |
| didrocks | interesting behavior btw :) | 15:33 |
| desrt | i didn't expect that playing around with bindmounts instead of /mnt might impact the world outside /mnt ... | 15:38 |
| desrt | *inside of | 15:38 |
| pitti | desrt: welcome to the world of having mounts "shared" by default :/ | 15:38 |
| desrt | ya. this is really strange. | 15:41 |
| desrt | is this some recent change? | 15:42 |
| pitti | desrt: with systemd; it was a huge debate back then | 15:42 |
| desrt | how does systemd have any control over this? | 15:42 |
| pitti | desrt: it's a kernel default (whether mounts are private or public by default) | 15:43 |
| desrt | ah | 15:43 |
| pitti | some sysctl thingy | 15:43 |
| pitti | and systemd changes it | 15:43 |
| desrt | this is ... weird | 15:43 |
| pitti | it broke quite a lot of things back then | 15:43 |
| pitti | I mean, those fixes were correct in the sense that anyone else could also have flipped that sysctl, but it was still weird | 15:44 |
| pitti | I had preferred if nspawn or whatever would have configured its mounts public when needed | 15:44 |
| pitti | but oh well, water under the bridge | 15:44 |
| * pitti toddles off for making dinner | 15:44 | |
| desrt | pitti: do you know the name of the sysctl? | 15:44 |
| desrt | not containing 'mount' nor 'bind' as one may expect | 15:45 |

| desrt | thanks | 15:45 |
| desrt | ah | 15:46 |
| desrt | mount flag | 15:46 |
| pitti | one of the most debated changes ever | 15:46 |
| desrt | ya | 15:46 |
| desrt | this is a really bad change, imho | 15:46 |
| desrt | _totally_ unexpected behaviour | 15:46 |
| pitti | http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2013-February/008558.html | 15:46 |
| desrt | and specific to the root filesystem only, is _really_ weird | 15:46 |
| pitti | no, I think it propagates | 15:46 |
| pitti | to undo it you need --make-rprivate | 15:47 |
| desrt | ugh | 15:47 |
| mdeslaur_ | mpt, charles: ok, I'm going to put this on hold for a while. Reading the upower source, it looks like the _only_ devices it calculates time remaining for is laptop batteries, and that is likely going away soon. | 16:03 |
| mpt | mdeslaur_, really? Yay bizarre upstreams | 16:04 |
| mdeslaur_ | mpt: it's calculating the time remaining based on the "energy discharge rate", and since windows doesn't use that value, more and more hardware is coming out with bogus values there | 16:05 |
| mpt | mdeslaur_, why is that a thing anyway? There’s probably something I don’t understand, but I’d just measure the percentage remaining at time T, and then at time T+n, and calculate the rate from that | 16:07 |
| mpt | (“just” <http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?JustIsaDangerousWord>) | 16:07 |
| mdeslaur_ | mpt: that may work for a laptop battery, but my mouse for example only has something like three percentages: 92%, 48%, 5% | 16:09 |
| mpt | haha | 16:09 |
| mdeslaur_ | yeah, yay for hardware | 16:09 |
| mpt | Yay operating systems that try to work on hardware made by vendors who don’t care | 16:10 |

| willcooke | sethj, early days | 17:01 |
| sethj | speaking of that however, I don't see how this is actually a Unity bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/971018 | 17:01 |

| sethj | Turning off mouse mouse pointer integration and it all works 100% | 17:01 |
| sethj | willcooke, lol. Optimism is good :) | 17:02 |
| willcooke | sethj, right so they're saying that once the mouse leaves the vbox screen then you can't open the launcher | 17:03 |
| willcooke | I don't think we can do much about that | 17:03 |
| * willcooke fires up vbox | 17:03 | |
| sethj | willcooke, yeah, basically. It's on Vbox to decide when the pointer is in the VM and when it's in the host, and it chooses host. | 17:03 |
| sethj | I dunno if that makes it invalid or what though. | 17:04 |
| willcooke | sethj, go with "Won't Fix" | 17:05 |
| sethj | kk, thanks. | 17:06 |
| willcooke | we wont ever get around to improving it, and there are a couple of work-arounds, don't hide the launcher, or use super key or alt-f1 | 17:06 |
| willcooke | sethj, fyi - there is some suggested text on the wiki page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BigDesktopBugScrub | 17:07 |

| sethj | willcooke, yup! Been using those when applicable. I don't have "won't fix" privs though. Do you want me to add a tag or do you want to do it.? | 17:11 |

| willcooke | sethj, yeah | 17:12 |
| sethj | willcooke, you might want to update the section on apport bugs on the wiki page too, as "won't fix" isn't a priv most users have. Potential ideas are use a tag for that too, or leave those for privileged folks. | 17:21 |

| tjaalton | robert_ancell: depends on the release schedule, but yeah if doable | 21:36 |
| robert_ancell | tjaalton, we were discussing it here and end of march is the release date. So that would work out pretty good for us. | 21:36 |
| tjaalton | actually that's pretty late | 21:36 |
| tjaalton | because of fglrx | 21:37 |
| robert_ancell | ? | 21:37 |
| tjaalton | it takes time for fglrx to catch up | 21:38 |
| tjaalton | with the video abi | 21:38 |
| robert_ancell | they release after the X release? | 21:38 |
| tjaalton | they still don't support 1.18rc | 21:38 |
| tjaalton | for instance | 21:38 |
| robert_ancell | tjaalton, would they be motivated to hit 16.04 and be more ready for 1.19? | 21:38 |
| tjaalton | we've always asked, but it still slips to the last week before release, every time :) | 21:39 |
| tjaalton | ubuntu release | 21:39 |
| robert_ancell | right | 21:39 |
| robert_ancell | That's a bit tight for an LTS... | 21:40 |
| robert_ancell | We'll have to lie to them and say it's 16.03 | 21:40 |
| tjaalton | of course, if the video abi doesn't change.. | 21:41 |
| tjaalton | then it's a non-issue. but I think it has changed every release | 21:41 |
| robert_ancell | No-one talked about video changes (mostly glamor and input and general cleanups) | 21:41 |
| robert_ancell | I guess we hope it doesn't change / ask fglrx nicely and see if that works out. | 21:42 |
| tjaalton | as long as the abi is set early enough | 21:42 |
| tjaalton | if it is changed. so first rc by mid-january or so, then put it in a ppa and ask them to fix their shit | 21:43 |
| tjaalton | leaning towards not bumping mesa to 11.0.x in wily, since it can't use llvm-3.7 so no proper amdgpu support anyway | 21:44 |
| robert_ancell | tjaalton, oh, it requires an newer llvm? | 21:46 |
| tjaalton | amdgpu does | 21:46 |
| robert_ancell | what else requires llvm in Ubuntu, i.e. what stops us bumping that? | 21:46 |
| tjaalton | llvm-3.7 not building on i386 | 21:47 |
| robert_ancell | :( | 21:47 |
| tjaalton | and that it's in universe, 3.5 3.6 already in main | 21:47 |
| tjaalton | so would have to get rid of one | 21:47 |
| robert_ancell | Problem for next cycle then... | 21:47 |
| tjaalton | hm, though if mesa switched to 3.7 it would allow dropping 3.6 it seems | 21:48 |
