[01:44] <blmvxer> Hello I have a few questions about Unity8 and Maliit keyboard
[01:53] <duflu> blmvxer: Also, most of the team is in Europe so 6+ hours away from coming online :)
[01:54] <blmvxer> Freaking of course lol
[02:42] <blmvxer> Hello I have a few questions about Unity8 and maliit keyboard
[03:01] <blmvxer> Hello I have a few questions about Unity8 and maliit keyboard
[11:04] <sil2100> Hey guys!
[11:05] <sil2100> For xenial, I reverted the dbus fix for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/1644323 since it was causing a regression with unity8
[11:05] <sil2100> Now from what Laney mentioned, this was not really an issue with dbus itself but needed some changes elsewere
[11:06] <sil2100> I would like to get this fixed once again for xenial, but I need someone to make sure it's not breaking unity8 once again
[11:07] <sil2100> (as per https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dbus/+bug/1644323/comments/18 )
[11:51] <Saviq> sil2100, I filed this: bug #1654365
[11:52] <Saviq> this is *why* Laney's fix broke us
[11:52] <Saviq> we should probably get robert_ancell to look at it, he might know best how lighdm + dbus works / should work
[12:01] <rcspam> Hi, my system is Xenial... I have lost all icons (indicators,time,etc) in my unity-panel. This is happened after a stop a fullscreen video. Since, some compiz/unity reset + remove config files doesn't solve the problem. If i am logging to another user, same things. An idea to fix this !!!??? thanx
[12:13] <sil2100> Saviq: thanks! Could you poke me once this one is resolved? I'd like to re-introduce his change then
[12:15] <Saviq> sil2100, that said, Laney's change was broken a bit, because restarting dbus didn't work (not sure if that's important, actually)
[12:15] <Saviq> I mean, it's probably not a real thing, but still it should kinda work
[12:19] <sil2100> hm, yeah, I would expect that to be working, even if it's not actually used anywhere
[14:04] <mterry> ltinkl: can I add a couple branches to silo 2272?
[14:09] <tsdgeos> mterry: he's sick, but i guess yes
[14:09] <mterry> oh no
[14:09] <mterry> yeah I also would guess yes -- adding
[15:03] <blmvxer> Hello, I have a few questions about unity8 and maliit keyboard
[15:09] <tsdgeos> blmvxer: ask and if someone knows the answer they'll answer, it's better than asking to ask
[15:11] <blmvxer> Okay, 1:Is there a manual command to force invoke Maliit keyboard?
[15:12] <blmvxer> 2:Is there a manual way of forcing unity8 into landscape in Ubuntu 16.10(x86)
[15:13] <tsdgeos> blmvxer: does the indicator rotation count as manual? what device are you running it that is not landscape by default?
[15:14] <blmvxer> tsgedos: Sadly no. I'm running on a baytrail nextbook and for whatever reason it's stuck in portrait mode
[15:19] <Saviq> blmvxer, you could modify https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity8/trunk/view/head:/qml/DeviceConfiguration.qml
[15:20] <Saviq> it sounds like whatever orientation value we're getting from the sensor is bogus
[15:21] <Saviq> blmvxer, as for forcing the OSK up, there's this bug: #1521518 - we've not solved this completely yet
[15:23] <tsdgeos> blmvxer: Saviq: playing with /etc/ubuntu/devices.conf may work too afaics
[15:23] <Saviq> right, I was looking for that thing!
[15:28] <blmvxer> Tried  X-Ubuntu-Supported-Orientations=landscape on Unity8 and Unity8 shell and it rotates for a second then reverts back to portrait
[15:33] <Saviq> blmvxer, check out what we mentioned above ↑, if you can't get it to work, please file a bug with `ubuntu-bug unity8`
[15:33] <blmvxer> Saviq: Sorry I switched to unity8 and missed what was posted before
 blmvxer, you could modify https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~unity-team/unity8/trunk/view/head:/qml/DeviceConfiguration.qml
[15:34] <Saviq>  it sounds like whatever orientation value we're getting from the sensor is bogus
[15:34] <Saviq>  blmvxer, as for forcing the OSK up, there's this bug: #1521518 - we've not solved this completely yet

[15:39] <mterry> josharenson: fyi I rebased greeter-guest onto your ported branch
[15:41] <josharenson> mterry: ok, albert approved it yesterday so hopefully it lands soon
[15:42] <mterry> josharenson: yeah both branches are in same silo, that's what motivated my rebase
[15:42] <josharenson> mterry: ack
[15:50] <blmvxer> Okay, I'm using unity8 right now, I modified the QML file to make desktop InvertedLandscape. now it's figuring out the OSK when I undock my device
[16:02] <blmvxer> Hell I didn't know there was so much I can manualy edit with QML 0_0
[16:06] <Saviq> blmvxer, patches welcome :)
[16:07] <Saviq> blmvxer, as for the OSK, the plan was to listen to lid sensor data (iio)
[16:14] <blmvxer> Saviq: best I can probably do is write a script that reorients and restarts mir. My tablet was hell to even get Ubuntu on lol.
[16:15] <blmvxer> Saviq: I'm looking at forceOSKEnabled = autopilotDevicePresent() to force OSK in desktop mode as a temp fix for my issue
[16:15] <Saviq> blmvxer, yeah that's a temporary workaround for sure
[16:16] <blmvxer> If I was more knowledgable of how Ubuntu was detecting my orientation then I would try to work on it more in depth.  Maybe a new project to work on since I have landscape mode up
[16:18] <Saviq> blmvxer, we're relying on Qt's sensors API
[16:19] <Saviq> http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/sensors-backend-topics.html
[17:24] <blmvxer> Still working on forcing OSK in the desktop shell of unity 8. I came across this line. oskEnabled: (keyboardsModel.count [18:01] <mterry> mzanetti: I can spend a little time looking at bug 1654306, I need to get back to our snap bugs -- been futzing in pure u8 land too long  :)
[18:29] <blmvxer> I believe I found some more info on why my OSK doesn't appear
[18:29] <blmvxer> file:///usr/share/maliit/plugins/com/ubuntu/Keyboard.qml:179 Type KeyboardContainer unavailable file:///usr/share/maliit/plugins/com/ubuntu/KeyboardContainer.qml:22 module "UbuntuKeyboard" is not installed
[18:29] <blmvxer> Though I have ubuntu-keyboard installed via apt
[18:50] <blmvxer> Okay so I got maliit keyboard setup in desktop unity 8
[18:51] <blmvxer> I called maliit-server when docked, removed the physical keyboard
[18:51] <blmvxer> Then it worked
[19:50] <mterry> josharenson: what is the end-user-experience that test_changingSessionSticksToUser is testing?
[20:02] <josharenson> mterry: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity8/+bug/1631365
[20:05] <mterry> josharenson: so it's testing that the session we show when we switch to a user is the same as the session that liblightdm has stored for that user?
[20:05] <josharenson> mterry: and that the icon matches
[22:01] <mzanetti> mterry, hey, this seems to be some gsettings issue. I cannot repro, must be racyness
[22:03] <mterry> mzanetti: I couldn't reproduce either
[22:03] <mzanetti> seems to happen in like 50% of the cases for Pat, Saviq said it happens more often for him
