spoonless[m]1hello, is ubuntu associated with the african ubuntu philosophy?07:24
andyrockgood morning!07:32
willcookemorning all07:47
willcookeduflu, thanks for testing that mono sound.  Looking in to it now07:47
dufluwillcooke, I'm not sure if I am hearing the correct OGA distorted by a low quality profile :)07:47
duflu... or just a noise noise07:47
dufluMorning willcooke, too07:48
willcookeduflu, when it works, its very obviously works07:48
willcookeLooks like the symlink got set up correctly07:48
dufluIn other news, I found the code path in clutter-gst causing corruption. But that's still no proof that a proper fix goes in there or some other plugin :S07:48
willcookeheh07:49
willcookeThis rabbit hole has become a rabbit warren07:49
dufluwillcooke, Ironically I am looking at a corrupted Big Buck Bunny warren each time07:51
willcooke:DD lol07:51
willcookeOh wow, this is annoying.. you go to the menu at top right, and turn off bluetooth from there, then it just vanishes from the menu and you have to go in to control center to turn it back on again07:53
dufluThat's annoying. And worse to turn ON bluetooth requires you turn OFF airplane mode. So toggling either way is to set something OFF07:54
willcooke:|07:54
willcookeok, something odd going on here.  On the Artful machine that I installed a while ago and keep upgrading, the sound is the old white noise - on the one that I installed on Monday - it's working07:57
dufluI vaguely recall seeing mention of this in a bug08:00
dufluA bluez or pulseaudio bug08:00
willcookegonna try a daily and upgrade that08:01
Laneymorning08:03
willcookehi Laney08:03
Laneyhey willcooke, happy friday08:12
willcooke\o/08:12
LaneyI think we've got a French free day today08:12
Laneyhow's it going?08:12
willcookeWe do indeed08:13
willcookeIt's good, except one of my bug fixes is only partially working, which is annoying and confusing in equal measure08:13
Laneyah, now you're engineering08:15
willcooke:)08:18
willcookeI think I need a debug build of gnome-control-center08:32
willcookeor at least, a hacked up one with some print statements in it08:32
willcookebut I am confused by launchpad08:33
willcookewhat should I branch locally to build it?08:33
willcookethis one? https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center08:34
willcookehm, no vcs08:35
willcookeso download the source and debdiff then I think08:35
willcookek, downloaded source, edited c, debuild, fail, do the source commit thing, try again, working, I think08:41
willcookeduflu, installed a daily live, upgraded gnome-control-panel and the sounds and it worked08:52
dufluwillcooke, OK I will try a fresh machine... some time08:53
willcookeduflu, nod08:53
willcookeI think I can see how it might break08:53
willcookeso doing some more debugging08:53
willcooke                if (!playing) {08:54
willcooke                        ca_proplist_sets (proplist, CA_PROP_EVENT_ID, "audio-test-signal");08:54
willcooke                        playing = ca_context_play_full (canberra, 1, proplist, finish_cb, control) >= 0;08:54
willcooke                        g_debug("XXX Here 3");08:54
willcooke                }08:54
dufluI am lost (and also deep in VAAPI/GST)08:57
willcookeif it hits that branch then it seems to default to audio-test-signal08:58
willcookeanyway, doesnt matter, don't think about it :)08:58
bigonwillcooke: you pushed gdm with the default.pa file08:59
willcookebigon, well, I didn't, but it happened09:00
flexiondotorgMorning desktops09:17
willcookehi flexiondotorg09:17
flexiondotorgLaney could you take a look at https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-mate-dev/indicator-session/mate-integration/+merge/32560009:33
flexiondotorgI'm sure I've addressed everything that has been commented on.09:33
Laneyflexiondotorg: sure09:34
Laneyline 30, drop that, you declare it at line 3809:35
Laneysurprised you don't have to cast desktop names, doesn't that warn?09:35
flexiondotorgLaney Thanks. I'll clean up the code and double check for warnings over lunch.10:03
Laneyflexiondotorg: alright, ping me later on and I'll approve10:04
flexiondotorgWilco10:05
GunnarHjseb128, jbicha: Hi! I've familiarized myself with the Trello board and noticed a card about GNOME and fcitx. Would like to remind of a list message I sent a couple of months ago:12:12
GunnarHjhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-desktop/2017-May/004935.html12:12
GunnarHjI got one reply from Ikuya Awashiro (don't think it made it to the list), but I suppose we need more input on the matter from IM users.12:12
GunnarHjhappyaron: ^12:13
jbichaGunnarHj: thanks, I added your link to the trello card12:16
GunnarHjjbicha: Great! Any chance I could get edit access to the board?12:17
andyrockwillcooke: hey I get the same time of crash on a vm12:17
andyrocki'm on it12:17
willcookeandyrock, thanks man12:17
willcookeandyrock, it can wait for next week if you're at a conf12:17
andyrockit's a working day for me today so np :D12:18
willcookeGunnarHj, do you have a trello account already?12:18
GunnarHjwillcooke: Yes.12:18
jbichaGunnarHj: #1 (adding fcitx to g-c-c) is unlikely this cycle, the g-c-c maintainers are really busy switching to the new layout12:19
willcookeGunnarHj, oki, I think I've added you12:19
GunnarHjwillcooke: You did. Thanks!12:20
willcooke\o/12:20
GunnarHjjbicha: Right, stated that in the message for the sake of completeness.12:20
GunnarHjjbicha: But a decision for 18.04 might affect what we do in 17.10.12:21
GunnarHjjbicha: Let me forward Ikuya Awashiro's reply. I think he made a few good points.12:23
andyrockwillcooke: my bad. We need to use the snap bin full path because s-p-dbus is running as root12:34
andyrockI used to test it using sudo s-p-dbus12:34
andyrockI'll push a fix right now12:34
willcookethanks andyrock12:35
willcookenoob question..12:42
willcookeplaying = GPOINTER_TO_INT (g_object_get_data (G_OBJECT (control), "playing"));12:42
willcookehow can I "playing" that to a string so that I can print it with g_debug?12:42
willcooke*convert to a string12:43
willcookeand, related to that12:44
willcookeI want to get debugging output from libcanberra12:44
andyrockwillcooke: ppa updated, thanks for testing :D12:56
willcookeandyrock, ta, I will re-test12:56
andyrockwillcooke: you want to know the content of variable playing?12:58
andyrockg_debug works like printf12:58
andyrockso g_debug("playing: %d\n",  playing)12:59
andyrockbut not soure if this is what you were asking12:59
willcookelemme try that12:59
willcookeandyrock, software properties works now!!13:19
andyrockcoolio13:19
andyrockthanks for finding the problem13:20

rbasakJust realised that GUADEC will be on my doorstep.19:57
rbasakIs anyone Ubuntu going?19:57
immumeaning20:00
jbicharbasak: darkxst will be speaking :) https://2017.guadec.org/talks-and-events/#abstract-52-bringing_gnome_home_to_ubuntu20:01
rbasakThanks. I should be able to make that. I can get to the venue in under an hour I think.20:05
jbichaI guess that's the only formal Ubuntu talk on the schedule, but I think it will have more Ubuntu people this time than the last few years20:07
