oSoMoNI just installed an artful VM from the daily iso (French and non default keyboard layout), and can’t login, password incorrect. The kb layout indicator is empty, and when I use the OSK the correct layout is shown by default, but after clicking one key it changes to qwerty (and even then, entering the password with the OSK fails to log me in)09:40
oSoMoNis that a known issue?09:40
oSoMoNjibel, ^09:40
seb128oSoMoN, can you log from a vt?09:41

jibelLaney, against which component do I fill gnome-shell bugs during installation? gnome-shell or ubiquity?10:12
jibelnvm10:13
oSoMoNwhen I open a downloaded tarball from chromium, nautilus apparently unpacks it in a temporary directory and mounts that dir, but no nautilus window is being open, so it looks like nothing is happening (the former behaviour was to open the tarball in file-roller)10:13
seb128oSoMoN, looks like a bug worth reporting10:15
oSoMoNok, will do10:17
oSoMoNlooks like file-roller is still the default handler, will file against it10:19

Trevinhoseb128: we're trying to start taclking most of things, while the list of TODO is pretty big and increasing, but at least we're moving10:41
Trevinhocheck the journal :)10:41
oSoMoNnot sure it’s a file-roller bug after all, looks like xdg-open executes run-mailcap which then decides to run /usr/lib/gvfs/gvfsd-archive10:41
seb128Trevinho, nice :-)10:41
seb128oSoMoN, why is xdg-open being used there? is that a chromium thing?10:42
oSoMoNseb128, yes10:42
oSoMoNchromium has no logic to handle downloaded files, it just delegates to xdg-open10:42
seb128xdg-open should call gvfs-open under GNOME no?10:50
oSoMoNI guess that’s what it used to do, as gvfs-open just opens the tarball in file-roller, no fancy mounting involved10:59
oSoMoNxdg-open hasn’t changed recently though11:01
Trevinhoseb128: I've just read the email from robert about lightdm... So are we working to get the guest session in gdm?11:06
andyrockmpt_: ping?11:12
seb128Trevinho, yes, interested in stepping up for that one? ;-)11:23
seb128oSoMoN, GNOME changed to deprecate file-roller in favor of nautilus archives handling11:23
seb128andyrock, hey, try putting some context with the ping maybe, it can help to have a reply11:24
andyrockmpt_: I've a question about the livepatch panel and the ubuntu one sso. Right now thiss is what we have: https://youtu.be/FRDXKJV0bOE. But what if I want to change user?11:25
ograandyrock, well, i guess thats something you want generally solved for snap packages, not only for the livepatch one11:27
andyrockogra: not really, here we're not using u1 to install the snap11:27
andyrockwe're using u1 to get the livepatch token11:27
andyrocknow or we ask the user everytime to enter the u1 credentials every time he/she enables the service11:28
andyrockor we add a forget button11:28
ograwell, same thing in the end given livepatch is only available as snap package11:28
oSoMoNseb128, ack, so we need to make sure that a nautilus window is opened and raised when requesting to open an archive, but I’m not sure yet which component should be responsible for that11:28
ograyou will need U1 for both in the end11:29
andyrockogra: mmm we don't right now. I guess because we're running as root11:29
ograah11:29
seb128oSoMoN, does calling "nautilus archive.tar.gz" open a view? if not that's a nautilus bug, if it does we need to check what command is being called by xdg-open11:30
seb128oSoMoN, does it work better from firefox or double clicking on the file in nautilus?11:30
Trevinhoseb128: mh... sorry,  i missed your request.... But... mhmh, not for now... There's enough work to do in this field for now11:30
seb128Trevinho, no worry11:30
seb128andyrock, Trevinho, btw is one of you looking at the unity build issue on artful that was mentioned yesterday?11:31
Trevinhoseb128: I didn't... I just read a bit, but I was heading to bed :)11:31
andyrockogra: the other way is asking for a macaroon right?11:31
Trevinhoseb128: I'm quite busy this week though... I'd prefer to focus on this stuff11:31
Trevinhoif possible11:31
TrevinhoI can land tho11:31
andyrockseb128: is there already a bug?11:31
ograandyrock, yeah, ask pedronis in #snappy about that11:32
andyrockogra: for the moment I'll stick without it. The software-properties panel already run as root (at least the dbus backend).11:32
ogra(but iirc the macaroon will need to be tied to a U1 account so you are back at asking for credentials)11:32

seb128oSoMoN, libreoffice update looks good, I have one nitpick but I don't think it's worth rebuilding the source package (unless it's trivial for you to do, unsure how long it takes with libreoffice since the source is big), it's nice when you have a sponsoring bug to list it in the changelog as (lp: #nnn) so it get autoclosed by the upload with the changelog reference in the bug11:41
andyrockseb128: let me try to setup the all thing and if by the end of the day I cannot fix, I'll disable the test11:42
seb128andyrock, thanks, don't spend too much time on it though, if the env set up is happening in bg it's good, otherwise maybe focus on the livepatch work for now and we can talk about unity again in a few days11:43
andyrockoki11:43
seb128k, I'm relocating for lunch, be back online in a bit11:45
oSoMoNseb128, sure I’ll rebuild the source packages with a reference to the sponsoring bug, will do that in a bit (gotta go pick up my daughter from school)12:13
oSoMoNseb128, firefox opens the downloaded tarball in file-roller (like chromium used to do). invoking `nautilus file.tar.xz` does open a nautilus window, that works as expected. And double-cliking on the file in nautilus just extracts it in the same directory, no opening file-roller or mounting12:15
seb128oSoMoN, don't bother with rebuilding libreoffice, it's not worth spending time redoing it in fact, let's not forget next time12:15
seb128oSoMoN, thanks for the details about nautilus/archives, i'm going to mention it to upstream12:16
oSoMoNseb128, ok12:16

BeretIt might be old news13:25
willcookeBeret, click on the little Ubuntu logo, and you should see Gnome and Gnome on Wayland (or something like that) listed - just choose the top one.13:26
willcookeBeret, then the Ubuntu logo will turn in to the GNOME logo, and you should be able to log in13:26
Beretwillcooke, so the problem is nothing is chosen by default?13:26
Beretbecause I also tried the GNOME on Wayland13:27

Beretthis is a thinkpad t420 with intel graphics13:28
Beret(I've used GNOME on Wayland on it in the past)13:29
willcookeI think this is just the lightdm issue seb12813:29
Beretthis cannot be an easy transition13:29
willcookeBeret, I think it's worth doing an apt update && apt upgrade. I think that will get the wayland session working again13:30
Beretok13:31
Beretso we're going to handle the switch to wayland independently of the shell switch13:31
Beret?13:31
willcookekinda, we wanted it to all happen at the same time.  We /were/ going to use LightDM, but we changed our minds this morning for a few reasons.  That should make switching to Wayland easier.13:32
Beretok13:32
Beretman13:32
Berethow in the heck do you log out of gnome shell13:32
seb128willcooke, I think you are right, I was asking in case because wayland doesn't work nvidia and lightdm doesn't filter the wayland session out the way gdm does13:32

seb128no extension13:44
jbichaBeret: do you have autologin enabled? ^13:45
Beretjbicha, no13:45
kenvandineif it's a setting, we should override that13:46
jbichaBeret: ok, I can duplicate the missing Log Out here, my guess is that it is just fallout from trying to make gdm3 optional13:46
seb128jbicha, Beret,  buzgilla suggests it might get hidden if you only have one user account on the machine13:47
seb128they maybe consider you don't have a case to want to go back to the greeter in that case13:47
kenvandineyeah, but you might want to logout to switch sessions13:48
kenvandineprobably a corner case for the average user13:48
jbichaBeret: install gir1.2-gdm-1.0 and log out (haha) and try again13:48

willcookethanks jbicha, I see14:00
jbichaok, someone should still talk to GNOME Design first to see if they might change too :)14:00
seb128jbicha, also we could decide that it's useful on desktop which usually don't have rotation lock14:00
seb128so typically you would get one of the other14:00
willcooke2 in 1s might need that rotation lock?14:00
seb128but yeah, talking to upstream is always a good idea14:01
jbichamy computer is a regular fairly recent touch-enabled laptop14:01
jbichathere's a lot of them14:01
seb128the xps13 is touch enabled but doesn't have screen rotation14:01
seb128touch != convertible14:01
jbichanow, on this computer auto-screen-rotation isn't working in Linux, but when it does work some people find the feature to be very annoying14:01
seb128why are we having that discussion?14:02
seb128I don't think anyone is arguing against rotation lock14:02
seb128anyway there is an exsiting upstream gsettings key so they somewhat agree it's a choice some users might want to make14:02
seb128no reason to act like it's not14:03
jbichawhat choice?14:03
seb128showing a logout item14:03
jbichaI think that's a bug but I haven't heard back from Beret yet14:03
jbichaI worry when I give someone help on IRC and then there's no response for several minutes, I worry that I gave them Bad Advice! ;)14:04
willcookeWe know the cause now, only having a single user.  I think the question going forwards is: should we show it all the time, if so should we expand that item so "logout" is visible, or should we have a button to do it.14:05
jbichacurrently, artful has at least 2 session (GNOME with or without Wayland) so that gsettings key isn't really the issue right now14:06
willcookeMaybe a button is not possible or feasible14:06
jbichaI duplicated Beret's issue, installed gir1.2-gdm-1.0 and could no longer duplicate it14:06
willcookeno - it's having a single user14:06
LaneyIt's having a single user and a single session14:06
willcooke:)14:06
jbichawillcooke: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/76326814:06
ubot5Gnome bug 763268 in general "gnome-shell ignores /org/gnome/shell/always-show-log-out being set to false" [Normal,Resolved: notabug]14:07
LaneyExcept the code to determine the latter is in gdm14:07
gQuigsdid the switch to gdm mean we gave up (for now) on the guest session?   (that would mean there is always a use case for logging out)14:07
willcookeWait, comment 1 on that bug says... >1 user OR > 1 session.  Well, I had two sessions and 1 user, and it didnt show.14:09
LaneyWe're saying that the check doesn't work because it requires gdm14:09
seb128gQuigs, no, well until we add it back14:09
seb128but it's planned to be added back (this cycle if possible)14:09
willcookeLaney, I see (at last) - thanks14:09
gQuigscool14:09
LaneySo fix that and see if it's good enough..?14:10
willcookeLaney, +114:10
Laneyor if you want (if it's too bad now), override the key in ubuntu-settings14:11
willcookeI /think/ expanding the user name is probably enough - but let's see.14:11
seb128we should really wait a bit for things to land and settle down to review issues14:11
willcookeyeah14:11
Laneywe tend to jump on issues when someone raises them on irc14:12
jbichaLaney: do you want to go ahead and change that key since gdm is not in main yet and we were talking yesterday about maybe only having 1 session anyway?14:12
seb128no need to go and change keys now for bugs14:12
seb128it's still early in unstable cycles14:12
seb128users can deal with small issues like that14:13
Laneyjbicha: If we do only have one then maybe upstream's argument is right for us too14:13
jbichaok, but maybe we should still change that setting as a workaround until we switch to gdm14:14

jbichaseb128: I'd like to change that logout setting for now to not break Artful users who want to switch users or sessions :)14:17
seb128I just can't be bothered to do/undo work for temp situations14:17
jbichaLaney: can you push your ubuntu-settings work to bzr?14:18
kenvandinealan_g, i've re-enabled the mir backend in gtk, but stripped out the pasteboard stuff to avoid the content-hub depends14:20

andyrockjbicha: regading the test failure15:09
andyrockcan you try with this https://code.launchpad.net/~azzar1/unity/thumbnailer-mkdir-parents-dirs/+merge/32524715:09
andyrockthis should remove the warning15:10
andyrockbut I'm not sure that this cause the failure15:10
andyrockthis is not the first time we get failures with that particular test15:10
jbichaandyrock: did you want to try a bileto build for it?15:13
andyrockyup15:13
seb128andyrock, you figured out the build issue?15:13
andyrockI cannot do that15:13
andyrockseb128: there is this weird warning15:13
andyrockmaybe that's the problem, otherwise we'll just disable the test15:14
jbichathanks!15:14
seb128andyrock, k15:14
andyrockit can be that before we had another deb creating that path15:14
andyrockbefore unity tests were run15:14
andyrockmaybe not anymore, or who knows15:15
andyrock:)15:15
jackpot51Will GDM for 17.10 be themed by Ubuntu?15:34
Laneyjbicha: done, I forgot that wasn't merged by bileto15:39
jbichajackpot51: I don't think so, GDM isn't easily themable15:40
seb128jackpot51, do you think there is a need for that?15:41
jackpot51It would be nice if GDM3 would load shell themes, GTK themes, fonts, and icon themes. Are any of those possible?15:56
seb128I personally don't know but we should try to figure that out16:00
jbichajackpot51: have you tried setting gtk and icon themes and fonts for the gdm user?16:00
jackpot51Icon themes appear to change, but the fonts are part of the gnome shell theme16:08
jbichaah, right16:09
jbichawe still haven't figured out how we're going to implement shell theming16:10
jackpot51I think user themes would have to be loaded in GDM16:10
jbichaGNOME Shell maintainer fmuellner doesn't like the user-themes extension16:10
isantopjbicha: Hey there16:13
jbichahi16:13
jbichagood morning16:13
isantopI've stolen some backlog from jackpot5116:14
isantopSo a big part of what we're working on is a new look and feel for System76 computers.16:15
isantopPart of that is a big fancy-shmancy new theme. However, another big part is consistency of the whole UI16:15
=== mpt_ is now known as mpt
isantopWe do find it a bit inconsistent that the login screen doesn't have the same look and feel as the rest of the interaction, which is why we're looking at these changes16:16
mptandyrock, hi16:16
andyrockmpt: hi16:16
mptandyrock, I would have a button opposite the livepatch checkbox, something like “Set Up Livepatch…”16:19
mptandyrock, is the contents of the U1 dialog up to you, or is it separate?16:19
andyrockit's up to me16:19
andyrockit's just a copy of the one used in gnome-software16:20
jbichaisantop: except for the Shell theme, maybe that's already working?16:20
mpthmmm16:20
jbichaisantop: (assuming we're talking about gdm3 and not lightdm)16:20
mptandyrock, give me ~20 minutes, I’ll do you a sketch16:20
isantopCorrect, GDM not lightdm16:20
andyrockmpt: oki thanks!16:20
jbichaisantop: I don't have an answer for you now about shell theming, the only change Ubuntu has made so far is switch to the Ubuntu font and we did that by hacking gnome-shell directly16:22
jackpot51Would you like to do that with a gsetting?16:22
isantopWhat we're basically thinking of is integrating the code from the user-themes extension into the GNOME Shell code16:22
jbichathat would be great but GNOME Shell themes don't use gsettings16:23
isantopThey do once user-themes is set. ;)16:23
jbichaisantop: please discuss that with fmuellner in #gnome-shell on irc.gnome.org16:23
isantops/set/enabled.16:23
isantopWill do, thanks16:23
jbichahe does not want user-theme support enabled by default16:23
immuhey16:24
immucan someone tell me about, switch from lgdm to GDM16:24
immui wanted the bug report about it16:25
seb128k, enough for today, I keep IRC open and read backlog later but that's it, see you tomorrow (I'm travelling in the morning to London but should get online from the office at some point once there), have a nice evening desktopers16:27

oSoMoNgood evening seb128, have a safe trip to London tomorrow16:27
seb128thanks!16:27
mptandyrock, do you have a ballpark figure for what percentage of updates-requiring-restart are covered by livepatch?16:28
andyrockmpt: nope.16:29
andyrockbut I think not that many... just the security ones16:30
andyrockand the kernel'ones16:30
andyrock*'s16:30
mptSo I guess the most we can say is that this will “reduce restarts required”16:31
andyrockmpt: yep16:33
isantopjbicha: Sorry to bother, do you happen to know what ports are tcp-able on that server?16:34
mpt[ ] Use Livepatch to reduce restarts required    ( Sign In… )16:34

isantopWhoops, wrong window16:34
Laneyjbicha: welcome to the corridors of power16:41

jbichaI will try to use the power wisely :)16:44
sil2100I will proceed with granting you power once my internet allows me to work correctly, grrr16:45
mptandyrock, sketch done, scanning it now…16:47
Laneysil2100: I was just looking at https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev16:47
andyrockmpt: cool thanks16:47
LaneyI think you should remove the 'seek to join ubuntu-dev' bit16:47
LaneySay something about uploading through sponsors or something16:48
mptandyrock, here you go: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoftwareUpdates?action=AttachFile&do=view&target=updates.draft.png16:53
andyrockmpt: cool thanks :)16:54
mptandyrock, so whenever you’re not signed in, the checkbox is disabled and unchecked. When you sign in initially, it becomes enabled+checked. But you can uncheck it without having to remove the account.16:54
andyrockmpt: ok makes sense16:55
andyrockalso easy to implement16:55
sil2100Laney: oh, good catch, yeah I guess something like that would be much better - although the wiki still has a better overview of what's expected16:55
sil2100So I'd even opt for removing the part completely16:55
andyrockeod for me now16:55
andyrockbye guys16:55
Laneysil2100: As you wish16:56
jbichaI wish for a mpt font and theme16:56
LaneyIt's to get rid of the idea that there's a progression path up to core-dev16:56
Laneydeleting it is OK to achieve that too16:57
