| darkxst | jbicha, ok that is fine by me | 00:43 |
|---|---|---|
| darkxst | slack was never more than an experiment anyway | 01:06 |
| Menzador | Hey darkxst , I'm the former SonikkuAmerica | 01:21 |
| Menzador | Are we directing discussion about Ubuntu 18.04 LTS' use of GNOME to #ubuntu-discuss ? | 01:21 |
| jbicha | Menzador: um, that's probably fine | 01:35 |
| Menzador | jbicha: OK. Just a-wonderin'... I'm surprised this place hasn't seen a flurry of activity post-announcement | 01:36 |
| jbicha | it's been a lot busier than normal | 01:37 |
| Menzador | Hm. | 01:38 |
| jbicha | I remembered that #ubuntu handles support for all official released Ubuntu flavors so if it's 16.10 and below, we can refer them there | 01:38 |
| Menzador | Well, #ubuntu handles support for all flavours, but this channel no longer serves support requests, if I have that right | 01:39 |
| jbicha | there just haven't been enough people around in this channel to answer all the questions | 01:40 |
| Menzador | Right | 01:40 |
| jbicha | and dev talk will probably shift to #ubuntu-desktop after 17.04 is out | 01:44 |
| huwanito | Hi | 10:28 |
| huwanito | I noticed a way to bypass the password when the screen is lock, is this where I can inform you guys about it? | 10:29 |
| huwanito | I am using ubuntu gnome 16.04 and I am a newbie so I might not the right process on how to relay what I found out. | 10:30 |
| ali1234 | hi | 12:37 |
| ali1234 | did you know that this page: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IRC/ChannelList | 12:38 |
| ali1234 | describes this channel as a help/support channel? | 12:38 |
| ali1234 | and if you google for "ubuntu gnome irc support" is it the top hit | 12:38 |
| ali1234 | where should i report bug that generally affect gnome? | 12:49 |
| ali1234 | (and only gnome) | 12:49 |
| jbicha | ali1234: 'gnome' means a lot of things, if you can figure out what part of gnome has the bug, it's best to file the bug against that part | 13:04 |
| ali1234 | the bug is that the "natural scrolling" option does nothing | 13:05 |
| ali1234 | scrolling is permanently backwards, regardless of what it is set to | 13:06 |
| ali1234 | in 16.10 fresh install | 13:06 |
| jbicha | that might be fixed in 17.04 which will be released next week | 13:08 |
| jbicha | You can run this command to report the bug | 13:08 |
| jbicha | ubuntu-bug gnome-control-center | 13:08 |
| nanodrone | ali1234, your laptop has a touch-sensitive display? | 13:08 |
| ali1234 | got a link to 17.04 iso? i'll test it | 13:09 |
| ali1234 | nanodrone: it is not a laptop | 13:09 |
| nanodrone | tablet? | 13:09 |
| ali1234 | no | 13:09 |
| ali1234 | just a normal computer | 13:09 |
| nanodrone | desktop then. | 13:09 |
| ali1234 | yes | 13:09 |
| jbicha | ali1234: download link and release notes are at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ZestyZapus/ReleaseNotes/UbuntuGNOME | 13:10 |
| ali1234 | nanodrone: its just a normal virtualbox install | 13:11 |
| ali1234 | i will wipe it and install 17.04 instead | 13:11 |
| ali1234 | whee i found a bug already: http://i.imgur.com/pZdP8rz.png | 13:17 |
| ali1234 | where do i report the missing window borders? | 13:19 |
| ali1234 | oh right that one is already fixed | 13:24 |
| jbicha | ali1234: yes, we intend to fix that before 17.04 is final: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/17.04.8 | 13:29 |
| ali1234 | okay it wont accept any input at all now :( | 13:34 |
| ali1234 | i'm stuck at the login screen | 13:35 |
| ali1234 | i can login on a console | 13:35 |
| ali1234 | hmm okay its just the login screen | 13:36 |
| ali1234 | the screen does not redraw unless i switch between fullscreen and windowed mode | 13:37 |
| jbicha | ali1234: yes, that's an annoying bug in VirtualBox, do you want to report it? | 13:38 |
| ali1234 | yes, of course | 13:38 |
| ali1234 | but my host OS is 16.04, these things tend to happen all the time | 13:39 |
| ali1234 | its always host/guest version mismatch | 13:39 |
| ali1234 | oh hey, the scrolling is fixed :) | 13:40 |
| jbicha | 16.10 is supported until July so someone could try to backport the fix from gnome-control-center | 13:41 |
| ali1234 | meh, not worth it | 13:41 |
| jbicha | as a workaround, if you go looking through dconf-editor you could probably find the right switches | 13:42 |
| ali1234 | i dont think gnome-control-center is the problem | 13:42 |
| ali1234 | i think the problem is virtualbox | 13:42 |
| ali1234 | the bug has been reported all over for vbox and vmware | 13:42 |
| ali1234 | i suspect that they implement mouse integration as a touch pad | 13:43 |
| ali1234 | or touch screen rather | 13:43 |
| ali1234 | to avoid having to lock the pointer inside the window | 13:43 |
| ali1234 | hmm installing extensions doesnt work | 13:55 |
| ali1234 | oh wait, it does, they just dont show in tweak tool | 13:55 |
| jbicha | you might need to log out and log back in to see those extensions | 14:02 |
| LaserAllan | Hey there, is there any extensions or something in GNOME that I can use to for example if i want to mvoe a window between screen with the super button?, like in windows? | 14:28 |
| LaserAllan | I have noticed that that is not currently possible | 14:28 |
