| jbicha | darkxst: why *do* we have gnome-shell depend on gdm3? I dropped that in artful for now and I'm thinking it might be good to SRU that back to xenial | 02:57 |
|---|---|---|
| jbicha | that debconf question is very annoying since I think many users don't know how to handle it | 02:57 |
| jbicha | people will still get the question if they install ubuntu-gnome-desktop unless we make that an alternate dependency | 03:03 |
| TheNumb | Didn't the lock screen depend on gdm? | 05:11 |
| TheNumb | I think it used to be the case | 05:12 |

| tony1 | the package "nautilus-emblems" has a dependency issue. it will not work unless "gnome-icon-theme" is installed on the system, Whether or not it is used as the system theme icon set. | 12:24 |
| tony1 | I hope devs are here? | 12:25 |
| jbicha | tony1: please file a bug | 12:27 |
| tony1 | jbicha: where is the proper place? | 12:31 |
| jbicha | you can run ubuntu-bug nautilus-emblems | 12:32 |
| jbicha | We get the package from Debian so you could optionally file the bug there too | 12:32 |
| tony1 | you could probably get more emblems installing more icon sets on the system. | 12:33 |
| tony1 | ok will do | 12:33 |
| dreamcat4 | hi. i just noticed that your official download links for 'stable release' are 16.04.2... however ubuntu has changed their policy (starting this .2 version) | 14:04 |
| dreamcat4 | ... it seems that is a problem now actually! because this .2 gets less stable (newer) 4.8 kernel, etc like non-LSB releases and is not guaranteed for 5 years | 14:06 |
| dreamcat4 | so where to download 'ubuntu-gnome' 16.04.0 from? | 14:06 |
| jbicha | dreamcat4: that's basically how 14.04 worked except that it's a bit better in 16.04 as it will automatically update the kernel and graphics driver | 14:06 |
| dreamcat4 | oh ok | 14:07 |
| jbicha | if you want 16.04 without Hardware Enablement, you can download 16.04.1 from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-gnome/releases/16.04/release/ | 14:07 |
| dreamcat4 | my graphics is screwed up on 4.8 (because ASPEED didn't get around to fix it yet) | 14:08 |
| dreamcat4 | thanks | 14:08 |
| dreamcat4 | actually ... this explain also makes me a great help for other broken driver back in 14.04.x | 14:09 |
| dreamcat4 | (which was a dvb tuner card) | 14:09 |
| dreamcat4 | they should call it 'hardware breakage' instead of 'hardware enablement' | 14:10 |

| tony1 | dreamcat4: installing ubuntu-gnome 17.04 actually fixed some driver issues for me but the upgrade processes caused issues and I needed to install clean. | 15:16 |
| dreamcat4 | unfortunately only LTS release has the live kernel patching... (at least for the time being) | 15:17 |
| elopio | jbicha: Hello! Like a month ago I sent you an email about the ubuntu testing days on fridays. We are talking about ubuntu flavours, and we would like to talk about gnome too, with you. | 16:09 |
| elopio | it's just a relaxed talk, 30 minutes tops. Like this one about mate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75zgIVHkXRA | 16:10 |
| elopio | jbicha: would you like to join us one of the following fridays? | 16:10 |
| tony1 | with 17.04 where did the option go to right click and umount a share that is shown on the desktop? | 19:45 |
