amano@duflu: Thanks for diving so deep in the gstreamer sinks ;)07:36
didrocksspeaking of sinks, am I the only one having multiple pulseaudio out sinks?07:36
didrocks(like some of your local server)07:37
dufluamano, No problem it was fruitful in the end. I'm now trying to make it less of a hack07:37
alexarnaudHello all :) !07:37
didrockssounds like g-s-d or something is always setting the last detected one as default for media keys07:37
didrocksand it's annoying :p07:37
didrocks(I didn't get that on the unity session)07:37
didrockshey alexarnaud07:37
alexarnaudhey didrocks, how are you ?07:38
didrocksreally good, thanks! yourself?07:38
amanoSince VDPAU doesn't seem to be supported on wayland at all nouveau and nvidia will have to go the vaapi route as well.07:39
alexarnauddidrocks: very good also :).07:39
flexiondotorgalexarnaud o/07:39
dufluamano, anything not directly supported by Intel engineers is likely to not work any time soon. And Intel only focuses on VAAPI07:40
amanoThere should be some Samsung patches to make nouveau work with vaapi. This was covered on phoronix last year or even 2015.07:42
amanohttp://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Nouveau-NVC0-Git-VA07:44
amanoProbably worth a look as well?07:44
andyrockbt headphones now work properly in X07:48
andyrock\o/07:48
dufluandyrock, which distro? Generally I only hear comments if something is broken07:49
andyrockI had several problems with xenial07:49
andyrockfew weeks ago, I stopped using them because of that07:49
dufluandyrock, yes the pulseaudio update on 2017-06-30 improved things. But I think artful is much better07:50
amano@duflu: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/mesa-dev/2015-December/103327.html07:50
andyrockduflu: I guess I'll wait for 18.04 :D07:50
dufluamano, thanks but I have no desire/time to look at nouveau. In my experience it's generally been too buggy. We almost gave up on it during Mir development07:52
dufluAlthough most of that could be solved by implementing thread safety07:52
dufluAnd X11 + Wayland probably work around that issue, somewhat unwittingly07:53
dufluSo maybe nouveau will be closer to perfect under Wayland like it was in X11, but not Mir08:01

amanoYour gstreamer patch prototypes. Scary stuff ;)08:19
amanoTnx for that, duflu08:21
amanoclutterautovideosink and glimagesink?08:23
dufluamano, right, yes08:24
dufluOddly enough, I only seem to have fixed vaapipostproc. If you disable VPP then the same old bugs exist (but nobody does disable it usually)08:25
amanoProbably a PITA to debug that08:26
dufluamano, Not has difficult that problem, in theory. Because at least that code path is starting with some distorted/broken image on screen. The code path I fixed never had an image on screen before08:29

rbasakI seem to have lost suspend on lid close when charging. Though if I subsequently unplug it still doesn't suspend. Nothing in my Power settings. Is this expected?10:32
rbasak(on Artful)10:34
Laneyrbasak: Check systemd inhibitors (systemd-inhibit), or see if it's gotten disabled (gnome-tweak-tool).10:55
LaneyIt's supposed to work10:55
rbasakLaney: which part is supposed to work? Is suspend supposed to be inhibited while mains power is available?11:00
LaneyNo11:00
rbasakOr are you saying that unplugging should cause an immediate suspend?11:00
LaneyNo11:00

kenvandinedidrocks, have you ever snapped an app that uses gjs?13:11
didrockskenvandine: hum, never, only nodejs, but not gjs, anything special is needed? (I think you don't have a runtime nearby)13:13
kenvandinegjs provides a GjsPrivate typelib13:13
kenvandineI spent some time trying to append to GI_TYPELIB_PATH, but it looked like the launcher is eating it13:14
kenvandineit was friday, so the details are now fuzzy :)13:14
didrockshehe, probably :)13:15
kenvandinei am about to get back to it13:15
didrocksI don't think the launcher has anything GI-related13:15
kenvandineit doesn't13:15
didrocksthe launcher is ran prior your wrapper, correct?13:15
kenvandinei think so13:15
didrocksso I think your process should have GI_TYPELIB_PATH13:15
kenvandineit does, but doesn't include my change13:15
didrocksthen, the other question is if it's working or you need another var :p13:15
kenvandinei need to dig into it again, it's all fuzzy now :)13:16
kenvandinejust looking to see if anyone has tried this before13:16
seb128kenvandine, try flexiondotorg13:17
seb128otherwise probably not13:17
kenvandineflexiondotorg, ^^ ever snapped an app that uses gjs?13:17
flexiondotorgkenvandine Sadly not :(13:20
kenvandineok13:20
kenvandinegood times :)13:20
flexiondotorgWhen do layout land in snapd again? ;-)13:21
flexiondotorgThe solution to all problems, apparently.13:21
seb128what is layout?13:21
flexiondotorgThe ability to bind mount arbitrary paths on the host file system.13:22
flexiondotorgGross over simplification.13:22
flexiondotorgzyg_a is working on it I believe.13:22
seb128k13:23
didrocksany place it's defined in detail? like the forum?13:23
flexiondotorgdidrocks It was discuss at the London Snap sprint and I believe photos of whiteboard plans were posted in the forum.13:23
didrocksI didn't find it on the forum13:23
* flexiondotorg goes looking...13:23
didrocksyeah, but a simple photo doesn't really summarize the discussion without context13:24
flexiondotorgdidrocks precursor task discussion here https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/using-snap-update-ns-from-snap-confine-to-initialize-mount-namespaces/126613:25
didrocksflexiondotorg: ah, thanks :) the like of feature-name "layout" in the title made it heard to search for13:26
willcookedesktoppers running Artful - can you see if you can create a wifi hotspot via network manager?  I can't get it to connect, tells me the password is wrong every time13:27
willcookeoh, connected now at least (poor choice of font type in that box I think)13:29
willcookebut yeah, the whole hotspot thing seems broken13:29
seb128willcooke, what did you change?13:29
willcookeit was a "capital eye" not a "lower case ell"13:30
willcookeneed to make that display in mono-space I think.13:30
seb128ah13:33
willcookecyphermox, do you know... what's the impact of installing dnsmasq alongside networkd? Specifically, without dnsmasq the hotspot feature in network manager doesn't "work" (no ip address on the client)13:45
willcookeor better still, can networkd be made to do this instead?13:45
jbichawillcooke: btw, gnome-control-center 3.25.4 has a new Wi-Fi panel, you can try it out in the GNOME3 Staging PPA13:51
seb128willcooke, https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2016-December/039564.html13:51
seb128jbicha, that shouldn't change much to the situation if the issue is on the n-m side13:52
jbichayes13:52
seb128yes it should change the situation? or not change it?13:53
seb128I hope the new panel doesn't regress on features13:54
jbichait looks like it has all the features to me, but maybe a bit better designed?13:57
seb128I didn't see the new ones, just discussions on #control-center13:59
seb128willcooke, would be useful to have a bug with your journal log in any case14:00

seb128you get the same error in your log?14:02
willcookeneed to read the logs14:04
seb128willcooke, just open a bug using ubuntu-bug14:05
seb128on network-manager14:05
seb128that should include the logs14:05
willcookeseb128, oki, I'll need to uninstall dnsmasq etc14:05
seb128willcooke, I'm going to try on artful in a bit, I'm dual booting and currently in xenial14:06
seb128I let you know how it works for me14:06
jbichayes, I can confirm both issues, missing dnsmasq and it would be nice if the password was in a mono font14:18
willcookejbicha, thx.  I'm trying to find out where that window's layout is in nm-applet, but getting nowhere... any clues? Should be easy enough to patch14:19
jbichawillcooke: I don't think it's in nm-applet but in gnome-control-center14:20

didrockskilling g-s-d hardly was maybe a little bit too much…14:30
seb128jbicha, do you plan to report those upstream maybe since you can confirm? ;-)14:34
cyphermoxwillcooke: networkd can't do it, but there is no impact to having dnsmasq installed14:36
cyphermox(well, dnsmasq-base)14:36
cyphermoxNM by itself won't do anything with it aside from connection sharing (if you so choose) unless the option to use it as a caching nameserver is enabled (it's not supposed to be now)14:37
willcookecyphermox, ack, thanks14:38
willcookeseb128, jbicha  - I was trawling u/s bugzilla, didnt find a good match yet.  I can log upstream if required14:39
seb128cyphermox, willcooke, we should make n-m recommends dnsmasq-base then?14:39
cyphermoxit's already supposed to14:39
cyphermox*sigh*14:42
seb128cyphermox, it was removed in http://launchpadlibrarian.net/279417634/network-manager_1.2.2-0ubuntu6_1.2.2-0ubuntu7.diff.gz14:42
cyphermoxwell, it should have had it14:42
seb128pitti did that when he switched to resolved14:42
cyphermoxyeah, that was wrong14:42
cyphermoxbut it's not something you'd just "know", it's an obscure feature14:43
cyphermoxthat said, it should probably be a Recommends, not a Depends14:43
seb128right14:43
seb128Recommends seems right14:43
cyphermoxwe want it to ship by default, I think, but not force it to be installed if NM is14:43
pittiwhy do you want NM to set up dnsmasq again? having two resolvers only seems to make things more complicated again?14:44
cyphermoxpitti: we don't14:44
pitti(or use dnsmasq only)14:44
cyphermoxdnsmasq-base is also used for connection sharing to provide DHCP14:44
pittiah, I see14:44
cyphermoxthat's why I said the removal change was wrong, but it's not something you could have known14:45
seb128hey pitti :-) how are you? sorry for the ping, should have used a _14:45
pittiindeed, sorry about that14:45
cyphermoxno worries14:45
pittiseb128: okay-ish; apparently I caught a virus from my nephew last weekend, but it's not too bad14:45
pittihow are you?14:45
seb128:-(14:45

didrocksseb128: can you try under looking in G-S: Shell.util_translate_time_string (N_("%B %e %Y"));15:13
didrockswhat does this give you?15:13
seb128where do I type that?15:14
didrocksalt+f215:14
didrockslg15:14
seb128didrocks, r(0) = %-e %B %Y15:17
didrocksok, that's my bug then15:17
didrocksI still get %B %e %Y15:17
didrocksthat's why the date is weird for me15:17
didrocksthanks for testing! Now… why…15:17
seb128I tested on the daily iso and it's fine as well15:17
didrocksI probably have something locale puzzling the shell thus…15:18
didrocksoh, can you just try N_("%B %e %Y") as well?15:18
seb128didrocks, gettext -d gnome-shell "%B %e %Y"15:19
seb128?15:19
didrocks%-e %B %Y :/15:19
seb128fun15:19
didrocks don't understand why there is N_() and this call15:19
seb128do you have an extension messing up things?15:20
didrocksno extension15:20
seb128does it do it with another user on the same system?15:20
didrocksgood question, let me try15:20
didrocksindeed, a new user is fine15:21
didrocksso, N_("%B %e %Y") is returning you the translated string format?15:24
didrocksor is it Shell.util_translate_time_string() doing the work?15:24
didrocksrom the gettext request, I would expect my N_() returning %-e %B %Y15:24
seb128you said that gnome-calendar had the same issue for you?15:24
seb128so I would say it doesn't have to do with shell15:25
didrocksyep, from memory15:25
didrockssame, hence the N_() check15:25
* didrocks looks again where this format is in gnome-calendar15:25
didrocksindeed, when creating new event, I have "juillet 25" for instance15:26
seb128gtk30 domain has those format string iirc15:26
didrocksand so, N_("%B %e %Y") returns you the correct format in the shell? which isn't the case for me despite gettext -d…15:27
seb128Shell.util_translate_time_string (N_("%B %e %Y")); ?15:29
seb128or ?15:29
didrocksjust N_("%B %e %Y")15:29
seb128%B %e %Y15:29
didrocksok, I'm even more puzzled, shouldn't that be gettext?15:29
seb128I don't know how that lg debug mode is working15:30
seb128and if the correct translation domain is set15:30
seb128or bindtextdomain or equivalents15:30
seb128oh15:30
seb128it's meeting time!15:30
didrocksah, could be that the Shell.(…) wrapper set it15:30
didrocksyeah :)15:30
seb128didrocks, let's continue that on a side channel or after the meeting15:30

seb128didrocks, hey15:35
didrocks* reviewed/discussed gdm transition with Laney15:35
didrocks* started to look at the "sound above 100%" issue with local patches working here. gnome-settings-daemon, using ubuntu-settings schema and gnome-control-center UI tweak. Some patch is needed in GNOME Shell as well, but implemented right now as a hackish extension. Will get a less impactful and hacky patch in G-S before uploading (restricting this to the ubuntu* sessions)15:35
didrocks* started to read some G-S extensions code and API to prepare London sprint15:35
didrocks* some AA work (NEW reviews for Mate components)15:35
didrocks* zeitgeist & indicator-application demotion via rhythmbox plugins, and other services. We have now mostly demoted everything we can but libunity, libappindicator (pulling dee). However, no daemon is installed.15:35
didrocks* snap theming discussions with snapd upstreams to present issues and what should be done. Worked with seb listing more themes to be included by default in both desktop cloud part and GNOME platform snap. Did some build and size metrics report. However, the extra size and build time has been decided as being too much for this.15:36
didrocks* fixes: amazon double icon via workaround and gnome-software unthemed (not the ubuntu one) icon debugged & fixed.15:36
didrocks* 5 years old very simple patch in GNOME for evince rebased (after recent comment) and reposted, after some dust removal ofc! :)15:36

seb128* Video acceleration:15:37
seb128  - Continued going deep in gstreamer-vaapi to fix totem+Wayland: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/170146315:37
seb128    . I decided to get ambitious and solve it properly (fix the corruption and performance simultaneously) by addressing a longstanding bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74075315:37
seb128    . Good news: Working proof of concept as of yesterday!15:37
seb128    . Good news: Smooth and fast (and not corrupted) video in Gstreamer/totem under Wayland!15:37
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1701463 in gstreamer-vaapi (Ubuntu) "gst-vaapi+Wayland = rendering corruption in totem (but not in gst-play-1.0)" [High,In progress]15:37
seb128    . Bad news: It requires some hacks that will take more time to eliminate.15:37
ubot5Gnome bug 740753 in gstreamer-vaapi "vaapisink: add support for EGL" [Enhancement,New]15:37
seb128    . I will continue to try to resolve these issues but so far upstream is silent, not commenting.15:37
seb128    . If I don't (or do?) make more progress on cleaning up my solution I might still PPA it regardless.15:37
seb128  - In other news, an Intel engineer has proposed VA-API support to Chromium this week: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/532294/15:37
seb128* Noteworthy bug count deltas this week:15:37
seb128  - gnome-shell (Ubuntu): 414 (May) -> 236 (July)15:37
seb128* Daily bug management across gnome-shell, ubuntu-themes, bluez, pulseaudio and mir.15:37
seb128  - Time consuming, but it keeps us on top of the user-facing issues.15:37

seb128jbicha, hey15:37
jbicha• Released new version of gnome-tweak-tool, renamed as Tweaks15:37
jbicha• Updated gtk3 to 3.22.17 and some other updates for artful15:37
jbicha• Packaged mozjs52 for artful new queue…but gjs 3.25.4 isn't working right with it yet, some linking issue15:37
jbicha• Packaged tracker2 for GNOME3 Staging PPA15:37
jbicha• If you enable the PPA, you can also run gnome-control-center-alt to see the redesign that might land for 3.2615:38
jbichaeof15:38
seb128thanks jbicha15:39
seb128jbicha, is that redesign likely to be complete this cycle or not?15:39
jbichauh, probably15:39
seb128or asked differently, could that be risky for the LTS and something we should investigate more before deciding?15:39
jbichaI'm disappointed that they still set gnome-control-center-alt to not be installed in last week's dev snapshot (overriden in PPA)15:40
jbichayes, it should be investigated more, not many eyes have looked at it yet, although it's been a WIP for a while15:40
seb128k15:41
seb128we should probably add that to the backlog15:41
jbichaI don't think it's particularly risky for LTS, just a different layout mostly15:41
seb128k15:42
jbichabig benefit is g-c-c is resizable now15:42
seb128thanks jbicha15:42
seb128I'm going to give that a try and let you know how it works for me15:42
seb128k, let's keep moving15:42

tkamppeter- cups-filters: Testing of cups-browsed, especially load-balanced clustering, shutdown of remote servers, spotted some remaining crashes and fixed them, especially one which is probably the one generating all the error reports of users (will observe the error reports to see whether 1.15.0 will not appear there). Received a patch for another hang-on-cups-browsed-shutdown cause. Allow suppression of clustering via cups-browsed.conf option. R15:49
