RAOFSon_Goku: there's a patch in capnproto master to fix the build.05:48
dufluExcellent. Changing to display mode 640x480 still gives the EGL draw buffer dimensions 1920x120007:10
dufluNot my fault [tm]07:10
zorrolechathi07:24
zorrolechatIs Mir included in 17.04 ? or it's Wayland by default now ???07:24
zorrolechatnot following everything in the Ubuntu world07:24
zorrolechatUnity has been dropped right ? Which is a good thing...it is FUGLY as in Fucking Ulgly07:25
zorrolechatMany people moved to other distros since that Unity thing started07:25
zorrolechatGood to see Ubuntu is back on track07:25
zorrolechatI just wanna install a good distro for the latest Kaby Lake intel processor...Gonna used the internal HD GRAPHICS07:26
zorrolechatwhich distro should I install07:26
zorrolechatand should I try Mir / Wayland or stay with X07:27
zorrolechatWe're completely lost these days with all those news07:27
dufluzorrolechat: Ubuntu 17.04 was completed before the news broke, so is still Unity7 by default with the Unity8 option available07:30
dufluThe real changes will occur starting 17.1007:30
zorrolechatoh thanks07:31
zorrolechatso 17.10 will come with Wayland or Mir ?07:32
zorrolechatI just want to install something on a Kaby Lake processor (so probably kernel 4.10+)...that will support Mir / Wayland07:32
zorrolechatwithout needing to reinstall everything in a few months07:32
dufluzorrolechat: If you want to minimize reinstalls, it's a good idea to stick to long term releases (16.04, 18.04...)07:33
zorrolechatright....typing from a 16.04 mate install07:34
zorrolechatI see07:34
dufluRAOF: Did you know that changing modes to lower resolution keeps the old larger bounding rect? So the display buffer remains larger than the display07:34
dufluSuch is mesa-kms07:34
dufluOh, maybe it's just this branch07:37
zzarrI know that Unity 8 + convergence + phone is discontinued, but what happens to Mir?11:22
ogra_zzarr, the mir-kiosk snap will persist11:22
ogra_(no idea if any other aspects of mir will see any canonical side development ... but perhaps the community will pick up)11:23
zzarrogra_, thanks11:24
zzarrI still have hope for convergence and phone/tablet, I just think that the time was not right11:25
ogra_the time was erfectly right ... see the galaxy S8 ... the adoption of manufacturers wasnt11:33
ogra_*perfectly11:33
Son_Gokuyou were too early :)11:44
Son_Gokufortune favors the bold, but it punishes the early11:44
ogra_well, we were showing it to them giving them ideas :)11:48
zzarrI saw the first computer with touchscreen that could be used as tablet about 5-10 years before they became common12:33

zorrolechatI hate Android and iOS13:33
zorrolechatthey're both fugly IMHO13:33
zorrolechatBlackberry was smarter and more secure13:33
zorrolechatAs long as a phone can call, send texts, occasionally browse the webs or have a mail client it should be enough13:35
