| MaximB | Hello, I've installed Ubuntu-gnome 17.04 recently on 2 computers, I like the GUI usability extensions and all, but it seems to be very unstable. it crashes randomly, the caleder app crashes too, and without command line I can't start it. am I the only one to have the OS crashes? | 11:06 |
|---|---|---|
| jbicha | MaximB: there's a few fixes that will be relased as Stable Release Updates (SRUs) but it will take some time for them to make it through the SRU process | 12:13 |
| jbicha | but some extensions can cause GNOME to crash too! | 12:14 |
| MaximB | jbicha: but you aware of the stability issues for ubutnu-gnome? and what extensions case gnome3 to crash? | 12:14 |
| jbicha | there are hundreds of extensions! but I heard reports of an older version of Hide Top Bar appearing to trigger crashes, for instance | 12:17 |
| darkxst | MaximB, we cannot and do not track extensions, its incredibly easy to make gnome-shell crash with a poorly written extension | 12:58 |
| darkxst | I would suggest you uninstall problematic extensions, or contact the authors | 12:59 |
| MaximB | darkxst: I actually meant the gnome3 on ubuntu-gnome 17.04, is it stable for you? | 13:00 |
| MaximB | because I don't have many extensions and I don't think they are the case of the stability as it's not something I do with them that cases the shell to craash | 13:01 |
| jbicha | MaximB: GNOME is stable for me but there are several SRUs in progress to make it better | 13:06 |
| MaximB | what are SRUs? | 13:06 |
| jbicha | !sru | 13:06 |
| ubot5 | Stable Release Update information is at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates | 13:06 |
| MaximB | jbicha: are you aware of the calender not starting in gui mode bug? or there is a place I cab submit a bug? | 13:29 |
| jbicha | MaximB: I've heard reports but there isn't enough info | 13:32 |
| jbicha | (because it works for me) | 13:32 |
| jbicha | could you run | 13:32 |
| jbicha | ubuntu-bug gnome-calendar | 13:32 |
| MaximB | jbicha: run it, there are bunch of infos | 13:33 |
| jbicha | yes, that will help you file a bug | 13:34 |
| jbicha | no, I mean I can start GNOME Calendar just fine, I don't experience that bug | 13:34 |
| jbicha | I think you're talking about bug 1681970 ? but it will be a bit easier for me if you just file your own bug | 13:35 |
| ubot5 | bug 1681970 in GNOME Calendar "gnome-calendar with google account only can start from terminal, no launchers works" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1681970 | 13:35 |
| MaximB | ok, submitted a bug | 13:36 |
| MaximB | what more info I can give you jbicha , also are you the dev of the gnome-calender? | 13:37 |
| jbicha | ok, the crash you experienced on Sunday is bug 1684778 | 13:41 |

| sam_wong | I switched from ubuntu-gnome to unity 8 this afternoon but found that most of my application softwares disappeared except the console, system setting and a compass browser. Any comment | 14:15 |
| jbicha | sam_wong: Unity 8 is experimental and this is the wrong channel for it | 14:19 |
| sam_wong | jbicha: thanks a lot but I couldn't find a relevant channel for this problem | 14:28 |
| jbicha | sam_wong: I recommend you log out of Unity 8 and log into a supported desktop like GNOME | 14:30 |
| jbicha | Unity 8 is incomplete and will no longer be developed by Canonical | 14:30 |
| sam_wong | It seems I have no option and give up Unity 8 | 14:32 |
