Saviqmorning07:00
Saviqgreyback, hey, can you update me where are we on multi-window apps?10:04
* Saviq can't find a trello card for this10:05
mzanettierm...11:04
mzanettiI have the apps scope unfavorited somehow11:04
mzanettisomeone knows how to favorite that back?11:04
guest42315mzanetti, LOL11:08
mzanetti:D11:08
guest42315use the Falcon scope :)) from the open store11:10
mzanettihah! good one guest4231511:17
guest42315:P11:18
guest42315mzanetti, i want to change some settings in the way the scrolling works, the way it is now doesn't really work for me, it's too much unpredictable and the inertia is too long, i want to tweak it a beet so it doesn't  make me sick :D do you know who manages the scrolling?11:22
mzanettiguest42315, unity8? touch or mouse?11:49
guest42315mzanetti, touch in unity811:53
mzanettihmm... config option available... it's Qt thing11:54
mzanettialthough it might depend on the device too atm...11:54
mzanettiwhat hardware?11:54
guest42315mzanetti, mx4 ota611:54
guest42315mzanetti,  in general i find the scrolling weird :D i think it's because the inertia is too long, it takes too long to stop the scrolling and the pace is strange, it's really unpredictable depending on how much you scroll11:57
guest42315mzanetti, + it's inconsistent, you get diff behaviours depending on the app11:57
guest42315mzanetti, try scrolling with telegram app on android and on ubuntu :P11:59

Saviqdandrader, oh, a qtmir branch? /me grabs12:14
* Saviq needs glasses12:14
dandraderSaviq, i'ts mentioned in the checklist :)12:14
Saviqyeah ↑12:15
=== dandrader is now known as dandrader|afk
Saviqdandrader|afk, can you please rebase qtmir multimonitorNext on lp:~unity-team/qtmir/build_with_clang, there's two conflicts12:32
=== dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader
dandraderSaviq, it already has a prerequisite12:34
dandraderSaviq, so I should probably rebase the prerequisite no top of build_with_clang then I guess12:34
Saviqdandrader, hmm not sure that's where the conflict is actually12:35
SaviqText conflict in src/modules/Unity/Application/mirsurfaceitem.cpp12:36
SaviqText conflict in tests/modules/common/fake_mirsurface.h12:36
Saviqit's criss-cross, so might be a problem in fact12:36
dandraderSaviq,  if I rebae only multimonitorNext, build_with_clang changes will show in its diff12:37
dandraderSaviq, but I guess we can live with that12:37
Saviqdandrader, sure, I know12:37
Saviqjust checking where the conflict is in fact12:37
dandraderSaviq, I can mention in the mp description12:38
Saviqdandrader, huh, weird, I can't reproduce the conflict locally12:38
dandraderSo what should I do?12:41
dandraderSaviq, ^12:41
Saviqdandrader, nothing right now, let me try and understand what's going on :)12:41
Saviqdandrader, ok, so this is where bzr is stupid, I'll have to pull two MPs from the list to get yours merging13:02
mhall119Saviq: so that video I did of the Unity 8 cursor and window mode has exploded over the weekend, up to 15,000 views, people are crazy excited about it13:09
Saviqmhall119, silo 22 will soon have external screen support13:09
mhall119\o/13:10
Saviqmhall119, as in it's building right now13:10
mhall119that's what people are *really* wanting to see13:10
Saviqwe had a small hiccup with that before http://i.imgur.com/wpRSOFD.jpg13:10
Saviq... orly?13:10
=== alan_g|lunch is now known as alan_g
mhall119oh,what device is that Saviq?13:12
Saviqmhall119, N713:12
mhall119ah,nice, looked phone-sized13:12
Saviqmhall119, we had the screens swapped (external vs. internal), should be fixed in a few minutes when qtmir builds in silo 22 (we're prepping in case people are interested during QtWS we're on our way to)13:13
mhall119Saviq: I'll update as soon as you tell me it's ready13:13
Saviqmhall119, I'm on a coach now and will lose connectivity soon when we cross the border, you can monitor https://requests.ci-train.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/44513:15
mhall119thanks13:15
SaviqI'll only be able to try later this evening13:15

guest42315Saviq, can i share you image? http://i.imgur.com/wpRSOFD.jpg14:01
=== karni_ is now known as karni
mterrySaviq, when you have local chroots on your device, how do you get sbuild to find them?  (i.e. how do you point sbuild/schroot/etc to a local dir instead of /var/lib/schroots?)14:01
guest42315Saviq, do you have big hands or is the n7 that small?14:02
mhall119Saviq: (or anyone else on the team working on it) silo 22 wants to remove unity8 package again14:05
greybackmhall119: try doing an "apt-get update" on the device before running the citrain script14:08
greybackelse install dmx-cursor-theme manually, before running citrain14:09
mhall119I had dmz-cursor-theme installed previously....14:09
mhall119oh, you know what, I did an image update, I bet that nuked the cursor theme14:09
Saviqguest42315, sure, share away14:09
Saviqmterry, I just used chroot usually14:09
mhall119greyback: why doesn't dmz-cursor-theme get pulled in as a package dependency?14:10
Saviqmhall119, it does, but citrain tool can't deal with deps not available in the silo14:10
mhall119Saviq: pull deps from the repo?14:10
Saviqmhall119, you have to do that manually still, yes14:10
Saviqmhall119, even worse (for actual silo testing) is that with overlay citrain tool will pull all updates from overlay PPA, not just silo14:11
Saviqrelated bug #137824514:11
ubot5`bug 1378245 in phablet-tools (Ubuntu) "citrain could use a more accurate way to upgrade from silos" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/137824514:11
Saviqguest42315, those are mzanetti's hands, not sure if they're unusually big ;)14:12
mhall119Saviq: can dmz-cursor-theme be added to the silo PPA? that way it would at least not break14:12
guest42315Saviq, :)) thanks14:12
mhall119it would also (I assume) ensure that dmz-cursor-theme lands in the daily images when silo 22 does14:13
Saviqmhall119, yes, deps are resolved during image building, this is only the citrain tool's problem14:13
mhall119ok14:13
Saviqmhall119, just don't use citrain, use phablet-config --ppa to add the ppa, and use apt to upgrade14:14
Saviqmhall119, I'd rather not add packages to the silo, it's not a demo ppa or anything, we actually want to land it at some point14:14
* Saviq hates android for "optimizing applications" on boot14:15
mhall119Saviq: installed silo 22, now I'm off ot test it14:21
Saviqhave fun14:21
Saviqmhall119, I'll probably lose interwebs soon, talk with dandrader about any problems with mutlimon please14:21
mhall119dandrader: so it "worked" in that it switched to my TV as the display and gave be a "Your device is connected to an external screen" message on my phone14:32
mhall119but I couldn't log in (pin passowrd wasn't being accepted for some reason)14:32
mhall119and the mouse sometimes would get stuck before it reached the far left side of the screen14:32
dandradermhall119, so far I've only used a laptop for testing it (it doesn't show this problem). will try it on my nexus 7 now.14:39
Saviqlet's see how quickly I'll get through the 50MB bundle14:39
=== dandrader is now known as dandrader|afk
greybackdandrader|afk: please add reviewing mterry's work like https://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/qtmir/no-touch-no-lifecycle/+merge/272791 to your list14:49
mhall119dandrader|afk: is there anything that would change the login password when it's connected to an external monitor and/or bluetooth mouse?15:02
greybackmhall119: I suspect a mir bug where every click on the OSK enters that key twice15:19
mhall119hmm, ok15:23
=== dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader
mhall119greyback: if that's the case, I can test it, since my pin is 000015:25
dandradermhall119, oh, you're using the osk15:25
dandradermhall119, from my experience it seems osk doens't handle mouse clicks15:26
dandradermhall119, try with a bluetooth keyboard15:26
Saviqor does something real weird indeed15:26
Saviqlike backspace is a character15:26
dandradermhall119, I mean, it doesn't seem to handle mouse clicks well15:27
dandradermhall119, which device did you use? nexus 4?15:38
mhall119dandrader: nexus 4, I don't have a bluetooth keyboard, but yes the OSK was adding duplicate keys when I long-press for numbers15:42
mhall119I was able to get logged in and take some pictures, but the mouse getting stuck is a realy problem15:42
mhall119Saviq: backspace is just backspace, as far as I can tell15:42
mhall119but long-pressing 'p' for '0' resulted in '0p' being added to the password field15:43
dandraderSaviq, mzanetti, do you know the state of "dynamice grid unit" support (don't know how to call it)? ie, unity8 having a per-window grid unit setting?16:12
Saviqdandrader, there's very little, only some proof-of-concept work happened in London16:13
dandraderSaviq, could be as simple as having a context property overriding the environment variable value....16:14
dandraderSaviq, at least for immediate demo purposes...16:14
Saviqdandrader, fwded you a thread with a summary from Gerry16:15
dandraderoh man, that's a long story16:16
Saviqdandrader, just see today's emails16:17
