| fes | hi guys. i am using 17.04 and have installed gnome-session-wayland but can't see GNOME Wayland as an option at login. Only GNOME and GNOME Classic. Anyone have an idea wha is the matter? | 00:08 |
|---|---|---|
| jbicha | fes: I don't mean to be rude, but could you try rebooting your computer? | 00:10 |
| fes | jbicha, np suggesting that :) I have rebooted but it does not show up in gdm. | 00:12 |
| jbicha | um, I think there's a bug there as some other people have complained about that | 00:15 |
| jbicha | you don't need gnome-session-wayland installed, that's an empty package now | 00:16 |
| jbicha | the 'gnome-session' package installs the files you need | 00:16 |
| jbicha | I haven't seen a bug filed for the issue yet, so you could do that if you want | 00:17 |
| fes | jbicha, thank for the info. | 00:51 |

| Wirehunter | Hi, I'm using ubuntu gnome 16.04 and I want to help development. I signed the ubuntu code of conduct already. What should I do? | 16:31 |
| jbicha | Wirehunter: what are you interested in working on? | 16:35 |
| jbicha | aquarius_: oh good, I'm glad you got an answer :) | 16:36 |
| aquarius_ | jbicha: yeah, good eh? never occurred to me to just start up in a terminal :) | 16:37 |
| Wirehunter | jbicha, software development primarily. | 16:38 |
| jbicha | Wirehunter: could you be more specific? | 16:39 |
| Wirehunter | jbicha, I'm a Computer Science student, programming is what I like to do most :) | 16:39 |
| jbicha | ok, well if you want to look on programming GNOME stuff, you'll probably want to talk to GNOME | 16:40 |
| jbicha | are you wanting to create something new or work on making existing stuff better? | 16:41 |
| Wirehunter | Making existing stuff better | 16:41 |
| jbicha | ok, Ubuntu GNOME 16.04 LTS uses GNOME 3.18 which is getting a bit older now; 3.24 will be released next week | 16:43 |
| jbicha | you can work on GNOME using jhbuild from an LTS but it still might be easier to use a newer release | 16:44 |
| jbicha | Ubuntu GNOME 17.04 Beta uses GNOME 3.24 Beta but since it's still in beta until next month, there's a risk of it breaking which could be a problem if you have deadlines for school or whatever | 16:45 |
| jbicha | find something that you'd like to try to make better and either submit patches or talk to the developers | 16:47 |
| Wirehunter | Yes, that might cause trouble with my deadlines :') That's why I'm running 16.04 at the moment. | 16:48 |
| jbicha | 16.10 might work for you for this semester; because it's not an LTS you'll need to upgrade twice per year until the next LTS | 16:49 |
| Wirehunter | So the best thing for me to do is to work with on the gnome project and run a more recent Ubuntu Gnome version so that I can actually make use of the changes i might make to gnome? | 16:52 |
| jbicha | yes, I think that sounds like what you want to do | 17:01 |
| Wirehunter | Okay, I'll look into that. Thank you | 17:01 |
| jbicha | Ubuntu GNOME itself is a project to make GNOME available on Ubuntu; almost all development is ultimately done in other projects | 17:01 |
| Wirehunter | I have to get of the train, so I'm packing my stuff. | 17:02 |
