| wardster | hey guys anybody gpt a min to answer a question? | 10:19 |
| wardster | im just looking at running unity 8 on my laptop.. which sistro is best to test on 16.04 or 16.10 | 10:19 |
| wardster | *distro | 10:20 |
| Saviq | wardster, they are mostly equal, provided you add the "overlay" ppa on 16.04 | 10:30 |
| Saviq | wardster, see http://mhall119.com/2016/05/dogfooding-unity-8/ | 10:30 |
| wardster | thats the one i followed that did work but a update has killed my application scope app so cant run any apps now! so not sure what i need to do - reinstall?! | 10:30 |
| Saviq | wardster, there was a temporary issue yesterday related to a Qt upgrade | 10:39 |
| Saviq | wardster, do you have "unity-scope-click" installed? | 10:39 |
| wardster | thats what ill need how do i reinstall that and it will be working again ! :) | 10:40 |
| wardster | thankyou :) | 10:40 |
| Saviq | wardster, please install that, also run `gsettings reset com.canonical.Unity.Dash favorite-scopes` in case your list of favourites got mangled | 10:40 |
| Saviq | you can check what the value is with `gsettings get com.canonical.Unity.Dash favorite-scopes` | 10:41 |
| Saviq | "scope://clickscope" should be the first one | 10:41 |
| wardster | what command do i use to reinstall or install unity-scope-click | 10:44 |
| Saviq | wardster, sudo apt install unity-scope-click | 10:46 |
| wardster | thank you :) | 10:49 |
| wardster | ill get this done when i get back, its funny im getting so used to using unity 8 as my main desktop now !! :) | 10:50 |
| wardster | ive tried on a clean install but cant install unity 8 becuase cant install address book app and unity-scope-click - is this the QT problem that blocks installing unity 8 | 10:55 |
| Saviq | wardster, it should be gone now | 10:57 |
| Saviq | (the problem, I mean) | 10:57 |
| wardster | there is still a problem ive added the ppa to 16.04 and tried to install but cant install as it needs addres-book-app etc | 10:58 |
| Saviq | when did you try? | 10:58 |
| Saviq | anyway, I'll try right now, will verify that unity8-desktop-session is installable on a xenial machine | 10:58 |
| wardster | one minute ago | 10:58 |
| wardster | on 16.04 | 10:59 |
| Saviq | wardster, it might be upgrading when it was wrong got you in a bad state | 11:00 |
| Saviq | let me write down a few steps that will hopefully help | 11:01 |

| mterry | cimi: is silo 78 open for newly approved branches? | 13:25 |
| cimi | mterry, yesss | 13:26 |
| cimi | i'll add both branches | 13:26 |
| mterry | the default-wallpaper and infographic ones? Cool. The default wallpaper has two more required (approved) non-unity8 branches and one more semi-related (approved) non-unity8 branch that I'd like to stick in there with it. Let me know when you're done editing and I can add them | 13:28 |
| mterry | cimi: ^ | 13:28 |
| cimi | mterry, I added those unity8 branches | 13:35 |
| mterry | thanks! | 13:36 |
| cimi | mterry, I can add the two deps | 13:36 |
| cimi | mterry, shall they live in the same silo? | 13:36 |
| mterry | cimi: added em. Yeah, they are companion branches to default-wallpaper | 13:38 |
| mterry | Updating the boot screen and system settings to handle new wallpaper | 13:38 |

| mterry | josharenson: heyo, are you looking for something to review by any chance? | 20:04 |
| josharenson | mterry: I claimed your greeter branch earlier | 20:05 |
| josharenson | mterry: working on it now, my wifi has been spotty and it wasn't cloning | 20:05 |
| mterry | josharenson: oh the greeter-arrangement one? very cool, thanks | 20:05 |
| josharenson | mterry: anything else I should take a look at though? | 20:05 |
| mterry | josharenson: I have another up and coming branch that causes some crash with lightdm but I'm digging into it. But the code won't change much (crash is probably on lightdm side) | 20:06 |
| mterry | josharenson: https://code.launchpad.net/~mterry/unity8/session-lightdm/+merge/300072 | 20:06 |
| mterry | This is well suited for you since you may be the only other person that understands our plugin layout with lightdm | 20:06 |
| josharenson | mterry: ack | 20:06 |
| mterry | there's a silo for it, let me add that to the desc | 20:06 |
| mterry | josharenson: thanks :) | 20:10 |
| mterry | josharenson: you said you were looking at greeter-arrangement? I'm going to do some tweaking to it as I finish testing on different tablet layouts (I don't have a tablet, so I haven't done much testing there yet). Code won't change that much I hope, but just heads up. Might be worth waiting a tad | 20:56 |
| josharenson | mterry: ok, I've only gone over it briefly/syntactically so far so no worries | 20:56 |
| mterry | cool | 20:57 |
| josharenson | mterry: I'll work on the other one | 20:57 |
