| gso | How do I disable the ALT+F1 shortcut to activities in gnome shell ? | 06:53 |
| mgedmin | in system preferences -> keyboard -> shortcuts, I believe | 06:57 |
| mgedmin | hmm | 06:57 |
| mgedmin | let me double-check | 06:57 |
| mgedmin | in gsettings it's org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings panel-main-menu ['<Super>s', '<Alt>F1'] | 06:57 |
| mgedmin | I guess gnome-control-center only shows the 1st of the keys | 06:58 |
| gso | gesttings... is that through dconf ? | 06:59 |
| mgedmin | gsettings is a command-line tool that I like (gsettings list-recursively | grep stuff) | 06:59 |
| mgedmin | ok, if you use Backspace to clear the "Show the activities overview" (in the System group) in keyboard shortcuts | 07:00 |
| mgedmin | it clears both <Super>s and <Alt>F1 | 07:00 |
| mgedmin | shame the GUI has no button to reset to defaults | 07:00 |
| gso | ahh, thanks - got it working! :D | 07:01 |
| mgedmin | I'm not sure I understand the difference between gsettings and dconf | 07:01 |
| gso | I was confused as the keyboard settings only showed super+s as the shortcut... and asusmed it must be something else then | 07:02 |
| mgedmin | at one point I thought dconf was one of the possible backends for gsettings | 07:02 |
| mgedmin | then somebody told be that gsettings was just the name of the glib-based implementation of the dconf spec | 07:02 |
| mgedmin | and I'm probably misremembering | 07:02 |
| mgedmin | there's a long-standing bug in gnome's bugzilla about the control center supporting just a single shortcut for each action | 07:02 |
| mgedmin | IIRC it's stalled because nobody can come up with a good design | 07:03 |
| darkxst | mgedmin, don't waste time trying to understand gconf vs dconf vs gsettings, its all confusing! | 07:09 |
| mgedmin | gconf is obsolete and we can pretend it never existed; that'll make things simpler! | 07:11 |
| darkxst | and normal users should never touch dconf! | 07:14 |
| darkxst | but then you have dconf-editor (which is actually gsettings based!) | 07:14 |
| mgedmin | and it makes me cry every time I run it | 07:16 |
| darkxst | mgedmin, atleast is looks GNOME3 style now | 07:54 |
| darkxst | ricotz, fyi I played with the KMS modesetting, couldn't get plymouth to work, but it should in theory since I got a DRM DUMB BUFFER working after boot | 08:41 |
| darkxst | and non-root Xorg seems happy enough but mutter segfaults creating the cogl framebuffer | 08:42 |
| darkxst | ricotz, but apart from that, the ABI verison of the drm module is causing problems (i.e. there is a modprobe ndivia_drm modeset=1, that fails) | 08:50 |
| darkxst | and also (probably unrelated) nvidia-persistanced is broken on my system due to user permissions, it seems to think that the nvidia-persistentd user is ID 133, when in acutal fact its 151 or something | 08:51 |
| darkxst | this is the code I am using to test the KMS btw: https://github.com/dvdhrm/docs/tree/master/drm-howto | 08:57 |

| ricotz | darkxst, interesting, although you should mention those things in #ubuntu-x | 10:36 |
| darkxst | let me copy them there | 10:37 |

| Ipa | Hello everyone! Hope to get some insights. I've updated to 16.04 recently, and got all desktop icons disappeared. Does this affect only me? If I'm not the only one, is there a fix? | 13:19 |
| damascene | Ipa, did you have icon on desktop in gnome in the previous version? | 13:28 |
| === aday is now known as aavery | ||
| Ipa | damascene, yes, it worked perfectly | 13:31 |
| Ipa | Now there are no icons on desktop (similarly to elementary os), but I still can access files in Desktop folder in Nautilus | 13:32 |
| Ipa | I've tried to use Tweak tool > Desktop > Icons on Desktop (enable/disable) but it has no effect | 13:33 |
