dufluMorning didrocks, jibel06:47
seb128good morning desktopers06:48
seb128hey duflu, how are you?06:48
flexiondotorgMorning France06:49
seb128duflu, we finally got the ubuntu-restricted change unblocked, thanks to jbicha for the upload06:49
seb128hey flexiondotorg06:49
flexiondotorgAnd duflu06:49
dufluseb128, going well. I possibly just finished the final form of the clutter-gtk CPU fix. Upstream will have to decide what form of patch they like, but it's also still waiting for a separate smoothness fix06:49
seb128ah, nice06:49
dufluseb128, how are you?06:49
seb128I'm good, could have done with a bit more sleep though06:50
seb128I was up hacking on g-c-c until 1:3006:50
dufluFun06:50
seb128indeed06:51
seb128well at least I got things working06:51
seb128I've a new panel in 3.25 for the dock settings06:51
seb128now up to Didier to deal with the backend side06:51
dufluCool. Users love settings. I vaguely recall we had a lot more to play with in Gnome 2.x06:52
dufluand never recovered fully06:52
dufluIn the old days you could set refresh rates and subpixel orders ;)06:53
dufluInteresting thought - Any machine with <= half the power of my desktop would have been too underpowered to be able to redraw a FHD 60Hz totem window. The user experience for plenty of people should improve soon06:55

andyrockseb128, didrocks on artful just after the login the deskop icons apper behind the dock07:45
seb128andyrock, yes, known issue07:45
seb128until it refreshes07:45
andyrockis anyone working on it?07:45
seb128andyrock, it you want to work on a patch that would be great07:46
seb128no07:46

ubot5`Gnome bug 760651 in Desktop "Desktop icon under top panel" [Normal,New]07:46
didrocksandyrock: FYI, I implemented this + intellihide behavior in 201107:49
didrocksandyrock: you might want to check there07:49
didrocksandyrock: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1711377 has more info07:50
ubot5`Ubuntu bug 1696621 in nautilus (Ubuntu) "duplicate for #1711377 Desktop icons slip under the top bar and dock" [Medium,Confirmed]07:50
didrocks(even if dupped)07:50
didrocksthere is the first refresh issue07:50
didrocks+ the fact that nautilus should learn about the icon size in intellihide mode (which isn't the STRUT, has we still want apps to maximize fullscreen)07:51
andyrockdidrocks: thanks07:51
seb128didrocks, andyrock, the duplicate status is wrong imho, Didier's report included 2 issues, one is a dup and an upstream bug (the fact that it needs a refresh to do the correct layout) and one is a feature request (handling the dynamic behaviour)07:57
andyrockindeed07:57
seb128I should perhaps have renamed/retargetted to the second issue when I commented07:57
andyrockI would prefer to focus on the upstream bug07:57
seb128right,I was going to say that07:57
seb128it's the default config/the most noticable one07:58

seb128does anyone have a simple example of single instance checking code?08:20
seb128I should say non-gtk one08:20
seb128or non-gapplication08:20
seb128like command line unix style :p08:20
didrocksdepends on your language, but most of the time you write an <app_name>.pid in a temp fixed location and write the pid in it08:22
didrocksthen, if the file exists, you check if the current pid is still running08:22
didrocksif so, exit08:22
didrocksor you overwrite it with your own pid08:22
didrocks(and try to clean it when shutting down, ofc, the first case is to handle crashes ^)08:23
seb128thanks08:23
seb128it's C, and I was trying to avoid do all that work08:23
Laneywhat's seb128 doing?08:24
Laneysounds intriguing08:24
seb128trying to get update-notifier to not segfault under wayland08:24
didrocksseb128: you have the run-once or so wrapper script from kirkland08:24
seb128I might just disable the single instance code08:24
seb128I can't be bothered to handle things properly08:24
seb128it currently uses the X clipboard for that08:24
seb128we have a contributor patch08:25
seb128https://launchpadlibrarian.net/332753117/0001-Replaced-up_get_clipboard-with-a-pidof-hack.patch08:25
seb128I could just apply it pretending it's fine :p08:25
seb128hackish hack day!08:25
seb128we currently have no update-notifier under wayland, which means no apport prompting for issues08:26
seb128which is not a good thing, we want feedback08:26
didrocks(/me whistles)08:26
pittioh, are we still using update-notifier for that08:27
didrockshey pitti!08:27
seb128hey pitti08:27
pittibonjour didrocks et seb128 !08:27
pittiisn't that the kind of thing that coudl be replaced with a session-systemd path unit08:27
seb128pitti, yeah, the apport maintainer never added a remplacement solution :p08:27
seb128you tell me :-)08:27
pittithat guy sucks!08:27
didrockshe's probably writing javascript nowdays :)08:28
* didrocks hugs pitti08:28
Laneysec08:28
seb128pitti, also no pkexec for system reports under wayland...08:29
pittiurgh, we use pkexec a lot, don't we08:30
seb128sort of yes :-/08:30
pittidue to its efforts to grab the focus/keyboard?08:30
pitti(which is X only?)08:30
pittiI thought g-shell had a builtin polkit agent08:30
seb128sorry, in fact it seems it's only when .desktop use pkexec08:31

ubot5`Gnome bug 763531 in overview "pkexec in .desktop no longer works" [Critical,Reopened]08:31
* seb128 looks more at why system reports don't wokr08:32
Laneyseb128: https://paste.ubuntu.com/25476960/ maybe that's useful to you08:36
Laneyupdate-notifier already has the path units AFAICS08:37
Laneybut probably not hooked up atm08:37
didrocksLaney: but if the process crash, you don't have it cleaned up, correct?08:40
seb128Laney, thanks, I found that/considered it but was unsure if the predictable filename was an issue since something else could decide to hijack it08:40
Laneydoesn't matter, it's not locked then08:40
seb128or take the lock08:40
Laneyok, as you wish08:40
seb128but I guess it can't do much damage08:41
seb128well, I'm just unsure08:41
seb128I'm not a security guy08:41
Laneywhat was the protection against that for the clipboard method, out of interest?08:43
seb128I guess none, you have a point :-)08:43

seb128indeed :-/08:44
pittiyou mean the "connection refused" thing was from pkexec, not apport? the second command runs apport-gtk as user, so no surprise if that works08:46
seb128ah, crap08:47

willcookeduflu, koza seb128 - otp still, will be a bit late / won't make it to BT meeting.  Is there much to discuss today?08:57
dufluwillcooke, running late too. Nothing I know of other than Pulse 11 is interesting09:00
seb128willcooke, duflu, koza, oh sorry, I'm in the middle of hacking and forgot about that one again09:01
seb128let's skip?09:01
duflu+109:01
* duflu wonders if koza is in there alone09:01
duflujibel, ? ^09:01
jibelduflu, ah sorry, owm09:03
jibelduflu, or just skip :)09:04
jibelkoza is not even in the room09:04
seb128let's skip then09:05
seb128duflu, pulseaudio 11 is for next cycle imho, I agree with what you wrote on the trello board09:05
kozajibel sorry09:05
dufluAnd good news... bluez has not released recently09:06
kozajibel seb128 duflu terribly sorry, I have been reading BT spec and did not realize it is 11 already09:06
jibelkoza, nw duflu was wondering if you were in the meeting alone, and you were not :)09:06
dufluBest excuse ever for missing the BT meeting09:07
koza:)09:07
seb128koza, we decided to skip, there is not much to share and everybody is busy09:07
kozaexactly, same situation on my side - not much to share, busy with other BT stuff09:07
koza(everyone now wants to use Bluetooth, this is crazy)09:08
LaneyI should try this Bluetooth thing some time09:08
dufluseb128, still should PPA sooner09:08
seb128Laney, your suggestion works fine, https://code.launchpad.net/~seb128/update-notifier/work-under-wayland/+merge/33027109:34
seb128Laney, thanks again ;-)09:35
seb128now to debug the under pkexec segfault09:35
Laneyseb128: didn't want to check errno?09:37
LaneyI guess you just exit anyway so maybe you don't care09:37
Laneygood stuff09:38
seb128Laney, right, I don't want to enter into the business of dealing with situations were things in a weird state09:43
seb128just exit for now09:43
seb128so it's basically "can't use gtk under sudo/pkexec"09:52
seb128if you do that on eog or gedit it tells you it can't open the display and bails out09:52
seb128it's just that python code/apport is handling errors less well09:52
seb128k, I'm offline for a bit for debuggign&lunch, bbl09:58
willcookeman from Lenovo will be here in a mo to replace my keyboard \o/11:10
willcookeoki, bbl11:19
willcookeyay, keyboard fixed!12:09
seb128willcooke, it was still the space bar not working on the right issue?12:10
willcookeseb128, yeah12:10
seb128good that they fixed it :-)12:10
willcookeThe space bar is much more positive now, you can tell that you're pressing it12:11
willcookeThe engineer runs Ubuntu too :)12:11
Laneynice12:12
jbichadid you get the spacebar heating option? ;)12:13
pittiwillcooke: oh wow, they sent someone? I also had the extra 24/7 worldwide plan, but they just fedexed me a replacement12:13
pittinot that I'm complaining, it's easy enough to replace; I'm just surprised12:13
pittijbicha: indeed - winter's coming! :-)12:13
willcookepitti, yeah, bloke came out and did it for me.  It was quite involved on this X270, he had to take the main board out, and the battery, and the hdd12:14
pittiwillcooke: oh, wow; took me 5 mins to replace on my x240,  keyboard was pretty much the first thing that came off12:15
pittimaybe the design changed quite a bit12:15
willcookeHa, I offered him a cup of tea when he got here (natch) and the first thing he asked was "which model is it?" - and suggested that if it was a 240 then there wouldnt have been time to boil the kettle :)12:17
pittihah - so, this is much more expensive for them, teaches them right to not make the design worse :)12:18
andyrockseb128, didrocks: I got a fix12:20
andyrockmutter's fault12:20
seb128andyrock, woot12:20
seb128well done12:20
andyrockI'll propose a fix upstream12:20
seb128andyrock, send...excellent12:21
andyrockit's 1 line12:21
seb128don't forget to reassign the bug in bugzilla12:21
popeyOoh, suddenly a dropbox icon appears at the top of my 17.10 panel12:45
popeybut it's not clickable :(12:45
popey(known bug?)12:46
didrocksTrevinho: ^12:47
didrocksandyrock: that's nice! the env var trick worked I guess for debugging?12:47
didrocksjbicha: btw, did you get the FFe lined up for g-c-c?12:47

ubot5`Launchpad bug 1712104 in gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) "Add Hot Corner switch to Dock Settings" [Wishlist,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/171210412:51
didrocksI don't know if we want to add this, do we?12:51
didrocksright now, ubuntu session is "no hot corner", vanilla is "hot corner"12:51
jbichait's a popular feature for some people12:51
didrocksbut it's a good point, seb128, willcooke, Laney, what do you think about surfacing this option? ^12:52
didrocks(with off by default in the ubuntu session, not selectable in the vanilla one)12:52
jbichaI think most people that have already been using GNOME have gotten used to the hot corner and it's frustrating if it's not there12:52
jbichawhy not selectable?12:52
willcookedidrocks, I think off by default is the right way to go, I dont have any strong preference for making it an optional thing12:52
didrocksjbicha: well, it will be upstream vanilla experience in the GNOMEsession, so on by default there12:52
Laneywhy is that a dock setting?12:52
didrocksLaney: where did we say it's a dock settings?12:53
didrocksoh12:53
didrocksthat's the bug12:53
didrocksno, it would be in a different frame12:53
didrockssame panel12:53
jbichaor I could add it to the Tweaks app > Top Bar if you don't want it in g-c-c right now12:53
didrocks(which shouldn't be entitled "Dock")12:53
LaneyI woudn't do it as a distro patch, but that might just be me12:54
didrocksI think a settings with off by default isn't that crazy, in the same panel12:54
jbichaI think there are people who don't mind the Ubuntu session but like the hot corner and telling them to use dconf-editor or gsettings directly isn't great12:54
Laneytweaks would be ok12:54
didrocksLaney: not a distro patch, but as we disable it by default…12:54
didrocksand it's a separate panel, where we have our dock settings also12:54
LaneyI think the argument applies to people who don't like it enabled by default and would want to disable it12:54
Laneythe GSetting is upstream too12:54
didrocksnope12:55
jbichathe gsettings is not upstream yet :(12:55
didrocksit's a patch made by upstream12:55
didrocksbut not in tree12:55
Laneysure12:55
Laneybut if they take it then it makes sense to expose it12:55
andyrockseb128: should I open a new bug for mutter12:56
andyrockor can I just send the patch file in the nautilus bag12:56
andyrockI cannot re-target it12:56
didrockshowever, it's some place where we reverted the upstream behavior due to our dock, I guess it's sensible to expose a way to put that gesture back in, but that's just IMHO12:57
didrockslet's see what seb128 thinks about it as well once he's back12:57
jbichaif upstream could commit that patch to gnome-shell, then it makes sense in Tweaks>Top Bar upstream too12:58
seb128andyrock, reassign the bug to the right component as I said earlier13:13
seb128andyrock, why not?13:14
andyrockseb128: how can I reassign13:14
seb128didrocks, jbicha,no strong opinion, unsure how the hot corner fits with a dock, you are likely to trigger it by error when going over the most used/top icon13:14
andyrockor the ui is really bad13:14
andyrockor I'm not allowed13:15
andyrock:D13:15
seb128andyrock, the product should be a combo13:15
seb128just select another value13:15
seb128on the top of the page, second item13:15
seb128or first rather13:15
didrocksok, looks like more for Tweaks thus13:15
seb128+113:16
didrocks(can be conditional if the key is there)13:16
didrockslet me record that on the bug report13:16
seb128we can always add it next cycle if the user feedback tells us it's a wanted option13:16
andyrockI'm not allowed to do that https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/bWbgePvT/Screenshot%20from%202017-09-06%2015-17-05.png13:17
didrockssounds good to me13:17
seb128andyrock, ok, let me reassign for you13:17
andyrockseb128: it's mutter not gnome-shell13:19
seb128andyrock, I got an error with mutter so picked the other one13:19
andyrockkk thanks13:19
seb128those are the same people looking at both13:19
seb128so should be fine13:19
jbichahttps://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-tweak-tool/commit/?id=29073dd8a70e513:19
seb128jbicha, nice13:19
jbichathat's on git master, I need to ask the translators if I can commit to the 3.26 branch13:20
willcookeseb128, jbicha - I realised I never got round to testing the power button stuff, do I need to add some PPAs etc to see it?13:26
seb128I don't know, power/suspend handling is crap for me atm13:26
seb128I need to debug that but I'm waiting for 3.26 to land13:27
seb128also I had the suspend button extension which stopped working13:27
jbichawillcooke: if you don't want to use dconf-editor or gsettings, you need gnome-control-center 3.25.92 which is in the GNOME3 Staging PPA right now13:27
seb128quite annoying :-/13:27
willcookejbicha, I can dconf-editor, that's fine13:27
jbichagsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power power-button-action 'interactive'13:29
willcookejbicha, works great! ship it!13:30
seb128lol13:30
willcookeseb128, are you having issues with that setting then? ^13:31
SaviqHey all, where does unity store the display settings? I can't get it to start proper, only clue is a dialog saying it can't restore display config13:31
willcookeurgh, sounds familiar ^ ?13:31
willcookeis this the monitors.xml thing again?13:31
popeyyeah, ditch (or move) the .config/monitors.xml13:32
SaviqAlso gnome-shell only starts when I have my ext monitor connected...13:32
willcookeSaviq, you reckon it might be this?  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=78666013:32
ubot5`Gnome bug 786660 in general "3.25.91: Unable to log in: invalid monitor configuration, Logical monitors not adjecent" [Critical,New]13:32
SaviqOk ditching monitors.xml helped with the dialog, but unity still doesn't start :'/13:33
SaviqNo window decor, runs a few secs and exits13:33
didrockswillcooke: jbicha: the settings "interactive" doesnt work for me13:34
didrocksah, you have to press for more than 0.5s13:34
didrocks(or 1s)13:34
Saviq"Fatal: Couldn't open display :0"13:35
willcookedidrocks, that's hardware dependent I think.  When does it generate the ACPI event13:35
didrocksI don't remember to have that delay on unity13:35
didrocksbut I might be wrong :)13:35
willcookedidrocks,  on X220 - yeah, I does13:35
didrocksjbicha: shouldn't that be our default for the ubuntu session?13:35
willcookelemme check13:35
didrockswillcooke: if you have it on, yeah :) I normally press that button only when I'm upset, so not often (hem ;))13:35
SaviqBut yeah, gnome-shell now starts, so monitors.xml helped here13:36
jbichadidrocks: there are a few issues with it being default but since it's in Settings>Power, it's easy for users to opt in to13:36
didrocksjbicha: do we have logs of those issues?13:36
willcookedidrocks, confirmed, same on u713:37
didrockswillcooke: ok, "good" then :) (and thanks for checking!)13:37
didrockswillcooke: and you know what, my screen is still really readable and clean! :)13:37
jbichaI don't like having the behavior of the Power Button be different if you log in to GNOME or log in to Ubuntu13:37
willcookeSaviq, I think Trevinho is your best bet for help there13:37
didrocksjbicha: that's not really an "issue" as per deficiency13:38
jbichawhat should happen if no one is logged in?13:38
didrockslike, in gdm? I don't think the settings impacts gdm here, does it? (as it's per user)13:38
jbichait's possible to lose work if something accidentally hits the Power button and you don't notice for 60 seconds13:38
jbichashouldn't the behavior be the same though?13:39
didrockswasn't that the case in unity and installing ubuntu gnome?13:39
didrocksyou had different behaviors13:39
didrocksand I don't think the multiple session thing is something people will switch back and forth13:39
jbichaare you sure that Unity defaults to power off when power button is pressed?13:41
seb128willcooke, sorry, GNOME fail I don't get pings notifications :-/ no, no issue with that setting, just GNOME behaves crap regarding to power manager here, like it suspend when it should, can't configure the lid close behaviour, sometime doesn't suspend when it should13:41
didrocksTBH, I think it will be more common to have people installing Tweaks and trying to enable/disable mod extensions like crazy, sounds something more important13:41
didrocksjbicha: yes13:41
popeyooh! I had that today. My laptop didn't suspend on lid close, just sat there getting warm13:41
seb128didrocks, jbicha , I didn't follow the whole discussion but unity default to display the dialog with all the action on power button event13:42
jbichadidrocks: ok, I'd like the same settings for power button action for both GNOME and "Ubuntu"13:42
didrocksjbicha: I don't think we want to change any upstream default in the vanilla session13:43
didrocksthat's the point of this session13:43
jbichahmm, maybe13:45
seb128Trevinho, you should maybe add X-Ubuntu-Use-Langpack: yes to debian/control for unity so it keeps getting its translations included in langpacks13:51
Trevinhoseb128: oh, yeah... if I could just get it built in 17.10 after gcc change.... I'll be back on this soon, but having no failures in my archs makes things a bit more complicated13:52
TrevinhoI might try with some qemu though13:53
seb128willcooke, those weird visual glitches don't happen only on unlock for me but also when starting e.g firefox14:20
seb128which opens maximized here14:20
seb128unsure but could be xwaylands apps only14:20
willcookeI'm seeing it under X as well14:20
seb128it's pretty recent here I think14:21
seb128it was not bothering me before14:21
seb128I wonder if that's a gnome-shell 3.25 regression14:21
willcookeI thought it might be to do with the launcher14:21
willcookeor a combination14:21
seb128it could14:21
willcookeso, that rather neatly raises this...14:21
seb128but it was not doing it with 3.24 I think14:21
willcookeandyrock, While you're poking around inside mutter, could you see if you can work out what's going on there ^14:22
willcookeyou can recreate the issue in question by:14:22
willcookemaximizing a window14:22
willcookelock14:22
willcookeunlock14:22
willcookesee the window do a little wiggle14:22
andyrockwillcooke: i'll take a look14:23
willcookethanks!14:23
seb128kenvandine, hey, I tested eog snap yesterday and it shows the thumbnails for me14:33
SaviqTrevinho: any idea about snapped remmina complaining that it can't open :0 display? I'm on wayland atm, so maybe something not working with XWayland? the app isn't shown in the gnome-shell launcher, so meh...14:39
kenvandineseb128, awesome, thanks14:39
TrevinhoSaviq: mh, no I've not tried that...14:40
TrevinhoSaviq: I mean, I did try that some time ago14:40
kenvandineseb128, one thing i'm noticing though, we don't get window icons for snaps14:40
Trevinhobut... Not recently14:40
kenvandineif you uninstall the eog deb14:40
kenvandinethen run the snap, you won't get the window icon14:40
TrevinhoSaviq: it's using the snap preload though, so maybe I should fix it to use new technologies14:40
kenvandinei think we need snapd to copy out the icon like it does the desktop file14:40
kenvandineand we need to add whatever directory it's copied to for theme icons?14:41
seb128Saviq, Trevinho, https://github.com/snapcore/snapd/pull/3398 for the "snaps not listed under wayland" (which is different of your display issue)14:41
Saviqseb128: ack, thanks14:41
SaviqTrevinho: can confirm it's a wayland issue, the snap works fine under Xorg14:47
TrevinhoSaviq: mh, i see... I'll give it a look in next days, but there shouldn't be much different between real x and actual xwayland14:49
TrevinhoSaviq: have you tried it in devmode to see where the failure is?14:49
Trevinhoor if it run in that mode?14:49
SaviqTrevinho: I don't think there's a denial14:50
Saviqactually14:50
SaviqTrevinho: [ 4937.076699] audit: type=1400 audit(1504709436.461:198): apparmor="DENIED" operation="connect" profile="snap.remmina.remmina" name="/run/user/1000/wayland-0" pid=23505 comm="remmina" requested_mask="wr" denied_mask="wr" fsuid=1000 ouid=100014:50
Trevinhomh, it might be somewhat related to some XDG_RUNTIME14:52
Trevinhoit segfaults to me then, but still14:52
SaviqTrevinho: yeah segfault here, too14:53
jibelthat's new, my laptop changes the brightness on its own and turns the screen off14:54
jibelexciting14:54
TrevinhoSaviq: it seems setting the GDK_BACKENd doesn't change much14:56
kenvandinejibel :-D awesome14:56
TrevinhoI mean to be x1114:56
jibel*something* calls /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-backlight-helper --set-brightness ...14:56
jibelbut not me14:57
jibelthat's really annoying, time for a reboot14:57
didrocksLaney: oh btw, while running, I think I got why you needed to set the env variable early15:00
didrocksit's actually before you start g-s-d15:00
didrocksas it's on X (don't know how it works under wayland)15:00
didrocksbut it doesn't read the theme from gsettings15:00
didrocksbut rather it's a xprop set by g-s-d15:00
didrocksso, you need the env var before starting it :)15:00
Laneyright, it gets inserts into Net/ThemeName15:03
seb128Saviq, Trevinho, kenvandine has been fixing snaps to work under wayland, maybe he can help you15:03
bdmurrayWhy would I have no screensaver / lockscreen on one of my artful systems?15:35
bdmurrayI looked for missing recommends and found none.15:35
gQuigsbdmurray: lightdm vs gdm, gnome-shell only works locking with gdm (AFAICT)15:35
gQuigsand then other environments don't seem to work with gdm (LXDE)15:36
bdmurraygQuigs: Do you know how I switch between them?15:38
gQuigsbdmurray: sure - sudo dpkg-reconfigure gdm3 IIRC15:39
gQuigsthen it will prompt to choose the default - then reboot and see if lock screen works15:40
jbichabdmurray: what desktop are you using?15:41
jbichawhat are you doing to try to lock your screen? (keyboard shortcut, waiting a few min. etc)15:42
bdmurrayjbicha: gnome, keyboard shortcut and waiting and suspending15:44
jbichawhich keyboard shortcut?15:45
bdmurrayjbicha: switching to gdm3 seems to have fixed it15:45
bdmurrayjbicha: super+L seems to work again so that15:46
jbichacould you file a bug against gnome-shell?15:46
jbichaI think at least the lock button in the system status menu in the right of the top bar should have been working15:47
bdmurrayjbicha: sure15:47
jbichaUbuntu's GNOME Shell carries a few lightdm patches15:48
jdstrandSaviq: you need to plug the wayland interface15:53
jdstrandSaviq: don't worry about XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, the desktop part launcher is accounting for all of that15:54
jdstrandSaviq: you need 2.28 to get the wayland interface though15:55
kenvandineit's been working well for me with core from edge15:55
kenvandineall of my snaps now work with wayland15:55
kenvandinei had to add the opengl plug to quadrapassel as well15:56
jdstrandkenvandine: fyi, you should start plugging desktop and desktop-legacy now that they are committed (also 2.28)15:56
jdstrandhttps://github.com/snapcore/snapd/wiki/Interfaces#desktop15:56
kenvandinejdstrand, i'll add those to my wayland branches15:56
jdstrandSaviq: that goes for you too ^15:56
kenvandinei have branches for all of them adding wayland15:56
jdstrandcool15:56
kenvandinejust not merged yet15:56
jdstrandI will be writing up some documentation in the forum for this and submitting a patch for the desktop part to advertise it15:57
kenvandinethx15:57
jdstrandjust haven't gotten to it yet (2.28 isn't out yet, so that's ok)15:57
kenvandinesince it'll all be in 2.28 i'll just do all of those changes in the same branches as wayland15:57
kenvandinejdstrand, when should 2.28 be out?15:57
kenvandinei thought i had heard this week15:57
jdstrandkenvandine: I think they are preparing it now15:58
kenvandinecool15:58
jdstrandkenvandine: probably a week or so15:58
kenvandinethe wayland interface is working great for me :)15:58
jdstrandkenvandine: glad to hear! :)15:58
jdstrandkenvandine: I'm curious what else you did with the snaps to make them work with wayland beyond plugging the interface and using the updated desktop part15:59
kenvandinei had to add opengl to quadrapassel16:00
kenvandinethat's it16:00
jdstrandok16:00
kenvandinealong with the unity7 interface of course16:00
kenvandinedoes desktop include opengl?16:00
* kenvandine kind of thinks it should :)16:00
jdstrandoh, I think the segfaults I saw was that the gnome-24 content snap didn't work on 26.0416:00
kenvandineclutter apps need it16:01
jdstranderr16:01
jdstrand16.0416:01
jdstrandkenvandine: so, I'd be really interested if you could drop the unity7 interface in favor of desktop and desktop-legacy16:01
kenvandinejdstrand, i can test that this week16:01
jdstrandthat said, you probably want to still plugs unity716:01
jdstrandbut if you disconnect it, it would be interesting to see what denials pop out16:02
jdstrand(also disconnect x11 if you are plugging it)16:02
jdstrandin this manner we can make desktop and desktop-legacy better16:03
jdstrandkenvandine: ok, so to be clear, keep plugging unity7, but in your testing, disconnect it first16:03
jdstrandkenvandine: unless you don't expect these apps to run on unity7, then you can just drop it in favor of the other two16:04
* jdstrand needs to write this forum post so everything is clear16:04
bdmurrayjbicha: the lock button does work with lightdm, shall I still file a bug re keystroke and no time based locking?16:11
kenvandinejdstrand, ok, thx16:13
kenvandinejdstrand, for now i should use both desktop and desktop-legacy right?16:15
kenvandinefor a11y16:15
jbichabdmurray: yes, thanks16:16
jbichamost people using GNOME have been using GDM but there are some people who installed GNOME on Xenial who kept lightdm16:17
* dobey misses unity816:58
kenvandinedobey!17:01
dobeyyup :-/17:02
willcookenight all18:10
jdstrandkenvandine: yes, both desktop and desktop-legacy18:43
kenvandinejdstrand, thx18:44
jdstrandkenvandine: desktop is 'safe' (eg, like wayland) where 'desktop-legacy' is 'transitional' (eg, like x11)18:44
kenvandineunderstood18:44
jdstrandkenvandine: desktop-legacy has the things that aren't safe yet, ibus, fcitx, a11y, etc18:44
jdstrandas they become safe, we'll adjust 'desktop' to have the safe accesses18:45
kenvandinecool18:45
kenvandinejdstrand, quadrapassel works with wayland, desktop, and desktop-legacy with x11 and unity7 disconnected :)19:32
kenvandinejdstrand, i do see this warning though19:33
jdstrandnice!19:33
kenvandine(quadrapassel:3338): Gdk-WARNING **: /build/gtk+3.0-GC0UmG/gtk+3.0-3.22.15/./gdk/x11/gdkwindow-x11.c:5573 drawable is not a native X11 window19:33
kenvandinewhich makes sense to some degree :)19:33
kenvandineok, i get that with x11 connected as well19:34
jdstrandyeah. seems like maybe a bug in gdk19:34
kenvandinei hadn't rememberd that19:34
kenvandineyeah19:34
jdstrandthanks for testing :)19:34
kenvandinenp19:34
kenvandinejdstrand, if i run into any issues i'll let you know19:35
jdstrandkenvandine: great, thanks! :)19:35
gQuigsshould I remove "Flash" from the translations of ubiquity while I'm at it? (I know they will have to be retranslated anyway)19:47
gQuigs(or maybe my translation will count)19:47
dmj_s76andyrock: Trevinho: How much do you know about how Unity does backlight brightness?20:08
Trevinhodmj_s76: it's all in unity-settings-daemon20:08
dmj_s76I finally nailed down an issue we've been working around on nvidia systems to xbacklight and /sys/class/backlight getting out of sync.20:10
