| ricotz | jbicha, hi, would be better to rename gir1.2-mutter-3.0 to gir1.2-mutter-0 too? | 12:37 |
|---|---|---|
| jbicha | ricotz: to fix the gjs autopkgtests, I'm told I need to compile mozjs38 --with-intl-api but when I try that I get | 13:31 |
| jbicha | cannot determine icu version number from uvernum.h header file | 13:31 |
| jbicha | I added libicu-dev to Build-Depends | 13:31 |
| jbicha | hmm, looking at build/autoconf/icu.m4 | 13:40 |
| jbicha | ricotz: bug 1665573 (I'll probably close the bug as NOTUBUNTU) | 14:49 |
| ubot5 | bug 1665573 in wine (Ubuntu) "package libwine-dev (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/wine/libaclui.def', which is also in package wine1.8-amd64 1:1.8.6-0ubuntu1~17.04~ricotz1" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1665573 | 14:49 |
| jbicha | The Debian packages mostly synced to Ubuntu now are just wine and wine-development (wine-development is just the newer wine) | 14:51 |
| ninja85a | hello can anyone help me with a problem? | 14:56 |
| muelli | sure ninja85a. Read http://rurounijones.github.io/blog/2009/03/17/how-to-ask-for-help-on-irc/ | 14:57 |
| ninja85a | well ive tried to install this extension https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/120/system-monitor/ and it said i need gir1.2-gtop-2.0 and gir1.2-networkmanager-1.0 | 15:01 |
| ninja85a | so i installed them | 15:01 |
| ninja85a | but it didnt show up on the top bar | 15:01 |
| ninja85a | and when i tried to remove it | 15:01 |
| ninja85a | it came with a error on the extenstions page | 15:02 |
| pchoo | Hi all, would this be the right place to ask about Optimus related things? | 15:34 |
| pchoo | A while ago I tried installing some nVidia drivers for my card (940m) and it broke gdm on boot. I got round this by installing lightdm, but have since reverted to intel graphics only. | 15:35 |
| pchoo | I'd like to get the nvidia card up and running, and take advantage of the card, seeing as I have it. I think the last drivers i tried were 364, or there abouts, does anyone know if there have been any advances in the drivers? | 15:36 |
| jbicha | pchoo: I think if we had someone good with nvidia, we wouldn't still have the major gdm bug for the past year | 15:48 |
| pchoo | jbicha: Ok, Thanks for a response. After I'd asked those questions, I found this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1559576 | 15:49 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1559576 in gdm3 (Ubuntu Xenial) "Ubuntu GNOME boots to black screen when using proprietary Nvidia drivers" [Critical,Triaged] | 15:49 |
| pchoo | post #106 suggests that the latest version is fine? | 15:49 |
| jbicha | yes, that's the bug I was talking about | 15:49 |
| jbicha | no idea, I don't use nvidia | 15:50 |
| pchoo | Sorry, I don't know why I had an question mark on that. | 15:50 |
| pchoo | jbicha: OK, thanks for responding. I might have a play soon and report back, although I'm fairly new to digging around in linux | 15:51 |
| pchoo | I know it's off topic, but Iw as wondering if you could point me in the right direction for dual booting? Specifically I want to have two installations of ubuntu gnome (so that I don't have to wipe out my current work set up) | 15:53 |
| jbicha | try #ubuntu | 15:54 |
| pchoo | Ok, Thanks | 15:54 |
| mike602 | this chat stays quiet huh? lol | 16:41 |
| ernstp | so mutter and gnome-shell 3.22.3 was just released... | 17:42 |
| ernstp | should be easy updates for gnome3-staging/yakkety! | 17:42 |
| jbicha | ernstp: are you interested in doing packaging? | 17:48 |
| ernstp | jbicha: sure! | 17:49 |
| ernstp | I can try it in my ppa first... ? | 17:49 |
| jbicha | I'll do mutter since I can basically copy it over from Debian unstable, but feel free to work on gnome-shell | 17:51 |
| ernstp | oh they have it in debian already... is there a delta in gnome-shell or what's the holdup there? | 17:53 |
| teward | fun fact: you can always test packaging in a PPA to make sure it builds :P | 17:53 |
| teward | (it's what I do in addition to local builds for server team stuff, and for install tests when I ask others to test) | 17:54 |
| ernstp | yeah that was my plan, I have a tiny ppa already :-) | 17:54 |
| mike602 | tried looking at the ubuntu gnome site and dind't see an area to contribute with money :( | 17:54 |
| ernstp | nobody uses dgit or git-buildpackage or anything like that btw? | 17:54 |
| ernstp | I would love to fork ubuntu-gnome/gnome-shell on github and submit a version update as a pullrequest :-) | 17:56 |
| ernstp | jbicha: so 3.22.3-0ubuntu1~ubuntu16.10.1 or what... ? | 18:10 |
| jbicha | ernstp: that version number is fine | 20:33 |
| jbicha | the ubuntu16.10.1 version style is actually because I used backportpackage for a package from either Debian or a newer Ubuntu | 20:34 |
| jbicha | for this, I might use 3.22.3-0ubuntu0~ppa1 | 20:34 |
| jbicha | personally, I was waiting on Debian's pkg-gnome to convert their packaging from svn to git to really do much with git for GNOME stuff | 20:35 |
| jbicha | for stuff that's co-maintained with Ubuntu Desktop, we use bzr https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/ | 20:36 |
| ernstp | jbicha: https://launchpad.net/~ernstp/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+sourcepub/7494359/+listing-archive-extra | 22:46 |
| jbicha | ernstp: great, did you run the new version? | 22:56 |
| ernstp | let me test it a few minutes :-) | 22:58 |
| ernstp | jbicha: yey, instantly reloading desktop files!! :-) | 23:01 |
| ernstp | it's magic... | 23:01 |
| ernstp | * Reload apps on .desktop file content changes [Adrian; #773636] | 23:01 |
| ernstp | jbicha: so yeah looking good, running it for a bit now | 23:42 |
| jbicha | cool, I'll push that to the gnome3 staging ppa | 23:45 |
| jbicha | ernstp: what do you want to work on next? :) | 23:46 |
