jbichafes_: did you used to be able to use GNOME on Wayland on this computer with nouveau?00:02
fes_With earlier versions of Ubuntu, for example 16.10? Yes I was.00:05
jbichaI looked at the journal errors that ubuntu-bug added to your bug report00:06
jbichait says that GDM is using X00:07
jbichabut it normally uses Wayland by default, so whatever is causing it to use X is probably the same thing that isn't giving you a Wayland option00:07
jbichado you want to try using Intel by default instead of nouveau?00:09
jbichaif so, see what happens if you install the amd64 deb from https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/ubuntu/gnome3-staging/+sourcepub/7541961/+listing-archive-extra00:09
jbicha(I'm hoping to get switcheroo-control into Ubuntu before 17.04 is released)00:09
jbichareboot after installing that00:10
fes_how do I use intel instead of nouveau? This is a hybrid graphics laptop with both intel GPU and nvidia GPU.00:18
fes_I will install that package you mentioned. Is there anything I should take notice of to use that package to its full potential or just to get it to make a difference?00:20
fes_Do you want me to install both the debug package and the ordinary package or is the ordinary (switcheroo-control_1.1-0ubuntu0~zesty1_amd64.deb) enough?00:21
fes_I have installed it and I will restart not to see if it makes a difference.00:24
fesit did not make a difference. I am still not able to use wayland session.00:28
jbichaso switcheroo-control is supposed to default you to using the integrated graphics card00:28
jbichabut if you right-click on an app launcher in GNOME Shell, you can launch it using the dedicated, more powerful graphics card00:29
jbichayou don't need the dbgsym package00:30
jbichacould you open Settings>Details and paste what you see in the Graphics line?00:33
festhat works!00:33
fessure...00:33
fesGraphics: IntelĀ® Sandybridge Mobile / IntelĀ® Sandybridge Mobile00:33
fesWeird that it mentions intel twice, right?00:34
jbichahmm00:34
jbichaI don't think it's supposed to mention the same thing twice00:34
jbichaI have a simple Intel-only laptop00:35
feswould you like to use teamviewer or some other remote service to check out my system? I am open to letting you do that so that thiscan be solved.00:37
feswhat is also weird is that if I execute "DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo" I get intel's GPU information when I in earlier Ubuntu's got the NVIDIA information.00:43
fesI am updating the package right now and I see that there's drivers updates. I will restart when the upgrade has finished and see if it makes a difference.00:45
jbichait might be suggesting that you install the NVIDIA proprietary drivers00:46
fesamong the files where libdrm packages fror nouveau2, intel, etc.00:49
jbichaok, could you try rebooting?00:54
fesWill reboot soon and come back here...00:54
festhe upgrade made no difference.00:59
jbichaI don't really know then, I commented on your bug and asked if you could report this to GNOME01:01
fesI have asked in #gnome over at GIMPNet and hope that someone will reply.01:08
fesThanks for helping out, jbicha01:08
fesjbicha, there was wayland and mesa updates five minutes and now when I restarted.. IT WORKED! I AM NOW USING WAYLAND :D02:14
fesDid you have something to do with this? ;)02:14
jbichalol, I didn't touch anything!02:18
fes:D02:19
jbichadoes the Launch using Dedicated Graphics Card option work? http://www.hadess.net/2016/10/dual-gpu-integration-in-gnome.html02:21
jbichayou can close your bug by setting the Status to Fix Released02:22

gnubuntuwhy is scrolling so terrible in firefox05:00
darkxstgnubuntu, what do you mean? its fine here05:09
darkxsttearing? lagging?05:09
gnubuntuboth05:11
darkxstwhat gpu/drivers?05:11
gnubunturadeon free05:12
gnubuntu16.10 btw05:12
darkxstI don't have radeon, but generally tearing seems worst with nvidia proprietry under X05:13
darkxstis it only firefox?05:13
gnubuntui think so05:13
darkxstfile a bug05:14
gnubuntuon launchpad?05:15
darkxstyep05:15
gnubuntui noticed 2 other things - firefox scrollbars are 1px away from the edge of the screen when maximised or fullscreen05:16
gnubuntumakes it hard and tiring to grab it - you cant just move the pointer to the right05:17
gnubuntu2/ i wanted to use ub-gn on a c2d laptop but the fan was kicking too much so i echo'd the conservative governor to replace ondemand05:20
darkxstyou mean the actual scrollbar is only 1px wide?05:20
gnubuntuno05:20
gnubuntuthe scrollbar is double in wide size i think this is intentional, i saw a bug about this iirc05:21
gnubuntuthere is 1px space between the scrollbar and the screen edge / end of window on the right or bottom05:21
gnubuntuso if you move your pointer right to grab it you cant - its just empty scroll space05:22
gnubuntuabout the cpu governor - something kept one of the cpu cores obove min frequency which prevented the fan from going quiet, for no visible reason - no task active05:24
gnubuntuas if it was stuck on a higher freq05:24
