digitaldefector | when is ubuntugnome 16.04 being released | 01:37 |
---|---|---|
ericchu | digitaldefector, released already. website not updated. download links: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/GetUbuntuGNOME | 02:08 |
darkxst | ericchu, we are having issues with the website access atm | 02:41 |
mgedmin | polari 3.20 from gnome3-staging segfaults for me on startup | 07:19 |
darkxst | mgedmin, yes it needs the newer gjs | 07:35 |
darkxst | havent had a chance to package that yet, maybe during the week (xenial release was bumpy as hell | 07:36 |
darkxst | or maybe ricotz can push it | 07:38 |
ricotz | darkxst, mgedmin, synced and pushed from debian to the ppa | 07:41 |
mgedmin | \o/ | 07:41 |
ricotz | gjs 1.45.3-1~ that is | 07:41 |
darkxst | yes | 07:41 |
darkxst | thanks | 07:41 |
* ricotz goes back to nvidia packaging | 07:42 | |
mgedmin | any ideas why xchat-gnome is all grey? http://imgur.com/3SevRDB | 07:52 |
mgedmin | something about GTK+ theming changes maybe? | 07:52 |
* ricotz notes gjs tests are failing :\ | 07:53 | |
fooctrl | are there any plans to switch to snaps for gnome 3.20? | 08:12 |
darkxst | fooctrl, no | 08:20 |
darkxst | fooctrl, I want to try and ship early development releases (3.21) as a snap, but I don't think thats completely possible yet | 08:21 |
darkxst | GNOME will otherwise remain packaged as debs | 08:22 |
fooctrl | darkxst, right, okay good to know | 08:22 |
darkxst | but you can use 3rd party snaps now | 08:23 |
fooctrl | for gnome? | 08:23 |
vimes | ugh gnome for HiDpi is slightly terrible | 08:24 |
vimes | but only slightly | 08:24 |
darkxst | not for core GNOME, and probably not many apps are packaged yet | 08:24 |
darkxst | but they will work on ubuntu gnome when they appear | 08:24 |
vimes | I still can't get the text in the evolution mail app to not be microscopic whilst at the same size not having chrome literal tabs take up my whole screen | 08:24 |
fooctrl | darkxst, interesting, which 3rd party snaps are these? | 08:25 |
darkxst | vimes, GNOME has the best HiDPI support I though (compared to other DE's) I don't have hardware | 08:25 |
vimes | it worked nicely on Unity darkxst but I still prefer Gnome. | 08:25 |
darkxst | fooctrl, right now most of them are phone apps | 08:25 |
darkxst | but you can probably expect things like Dropbox, slack, etc to come in the future | 08:26 |
fooctrl | nice, yea I see there's only few available snaps ATM | 08:26 |
fooctrl | but will definitely keep an eye on it | 08:26 |
fooctrl | darkxst, also with >= 16.10 once things are moved to unity 8/mir we should be able to have latest version of gnome? | 08:29 |
darkxst | fooctrl, no | 08:30 |
Forage | Good afternoon | 15:58 |
Forage | I'd like to congratulate you guys for a change. The upgrade from 15.10 to 16.04 has been the least painless Ubuntu upgrade ever since I started using Ubuntu as my primary OS (+/- 2011) and having never skipped a half-annual release. Many thanks for all your effort! | 16:03 |
Forage | (now please finally get rid of Rhythmbox, it's long overdue :-P) | 16:05 |
