[00:05] <RAOF> hallyn: You* can specify arbitrary xkb options; ctrl:nocaps is probably the one that you want.
[00:06] <RAOF> hallyn: *: For values of “you” equal to “the shell that you're using, and AFAIK Unity8 has no UI for setting that”
[00:19] <hallyn> RAOF: so 'the shell' means 'the UI shell' ?
[00:20] <RAOF> hallyn: Specifically, “the shell” means “the thing that's linked against libmirserver and is providing your Mir server”
[00:47] <hallyn> no way to make it configurable by the user regardless of the shell?
[01:36] <duflu> Yes. I can use my mouse in 1000Hz mode with Unity8 now
[01:36] <duflu> Since Mir 0.21.0 got released
[02:13] <RAOF> hallyn: By default we *should* respect the udev
[02:13] <RAOF> -set preferences, but there's nothing stopping shells from overriding that.
[02:13] <RAOF> (I don't think we currently *do* respect the udev-set preferences, but we should)
[02:31] <hallyn> RAOF: hm, well lemme try that.  new to me
[02:32] <RAOF> It's what keyboard-configuration sets.
[03:07] <hallyn> Not sure what 'keyboard-configuration' is.  if it's the thing in the gnome gui, it doesn't have such an option (since like precise or something)
[03:12] <RAOF> ‘apt search keyboard-configuration’ ☺
[03:33] <hallyn> or rather dpkg -L.  ok so to my surprise that means that i should expect mir to respect *X*KBPOPTIONS :)  i'll try, thx
[03:40] <hallyn> no joy
[03:49] <RAOF> Yeah, I'm not sure that we *do* respect those options, but we should.
[03:49] <RAOF> Feel free to file a bug :)
[14:05] <dandrader> alf__,  how do I assign a value to a mir::geometry::Point.x?
[14:07] <alf__> dandrader: = mir::geometry::X{1}
[14:09] <dandrader> alf__,  that worked. thanks
[17:15] <alan_g|EOD> kdub: FWIW cmake runs each test suite in a separate execution. All the process start/stops take extra time
[17:16] <kdub> alan_g|EOD, ack, thanks
[17:16] <kdub> still poking around that one
[17:23] <alan_g|EOD> just use "make ptest"
