didrockstu vas pouvoir tester gdm aujourd'hui ;)05:53
didrocksen espérant que tous les problèmes venaient de la même cause05:53
didrocks(mais je pense qu'il y a au moins le bug de selection de session de fallback: tu démarres une session wayland, elle ne marche pas, fallback sur quelle session x? (genre tu as unity, gnome-classic, gnome-xorg et ubuntu-xorg installé)05:53
oSoMoNsalut didrocks05:54

duflusalut jibel, didrocks, oSoMoN06:45
dufluAlso just noticed that Gnome's mouse pointer now has subpixel motion precision. I always wondered if that idea would work06:51
jibelHello duflu07:06
didrockssharp eyes duflu ;)07:19
dufludidrocks, well, I changed some settings and the mouse cursor has changed back to pixel-aligned *shrug*07:20
didrocksinteresting, did you change to non default settings?07:21
dufludidrocks, only made the interface font smaller07:23
kozaduflu, and we have new bluez release :)07:23
dufluAlso toggled Ambiance > Adwaita > Ambiance07:23
duflukoza, yeah I carded it already for 18.0407:24
kozasweet07:24
RAOFHah! Turns out the reason that I wasn't getting a Wayland session was that I'd disabled it in gdm.conf.07:53
didrocksRAOF: have you disabled it? We only do that in the live session07:58
RAOFdidrocks: Yeah, I disabled it at one point while fiddling with hybrid graphics on this laptop. And then forgot about it :)07:59
didrockstypical :p08:00

c-lobranohi Trevinho :) I just saw bug 1704745 is rejected, but I didn't see any comment on the new version of the patch. Also this one was too generic?09:56

willcookec-lobrano, my back is hurting because I am old.09:59
c-lobranowillcooke: back pain is really annoying10:01

Dmitrii-Shdidrocks: got some new packages last night: https://pastebin.canonical.com/198485/10:34
Dmitrii-Shdidrocks: and found a button to switch from gnome-classic to ubuntu xorg session10:34
Dmitrii-Shubuntu X session works well10:34
Dmitrii-Shhaven't tried gnome-classic after an upgrade yet but it's the default session - looking for a way to switch it to ubuntu X now10:35
Dmitrii-Shdidrocks: so far I can see that display scaling doesn't apply to chromium10:45
Dmitrii-Sh#Exec=chromium-browser %U10:45
Dmitrii-ShExec=chromium-browser --force-device-scale-factor=2 %U10:45
Dmitrii-Shhave to do this10:45
Trevinhoc-lobrano: hey I read you wrote it wasn't needed, do I thought you were referring to the MP11:00
c-lobranoTrevinho: right, but it was my word against the other guy's one :), so I tried to make a patch less generic. If you like, it's in the same branch of the previous one11:20
didrocksDmitrii-Sh: well, I guess the test is to have a new install and see which Xorg session you fallback with11:52
didrocksDmitrii-Sh: for the other issues, like display scaling on chromium, check with oSoMoN I think11:52
Dmitrii-Shdidrocks: I can try but not on this system11:52
Dmitrii-Shdidrocks: this is actually the laptop I do regular work :^D11:52

jdstrandwillcooke: hey, is there any hope of fixing https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Wayland_features#Restarting_gnome-shell in 17.10/18.04?14:40
jdstrandI'm starting to see these sorts of crashes again with recent updates:       Sep 13 16:32:18 localhost kernel: [204689.822973] gnome-shell[9220]: segfault at 8 ip 00007f62252334ef sp 00007fff72ca3670 error 4 in libmutter-cogl-1.so[7f62251ce000+a6000]14:40
jdstrandthis is with recent artful. of course, it all happens completely randomly, so can't really file a bug. when it happens, I lose all state cause of the wiki item I pasted14:41
* jdstrand knows you are aware of the wiki item, just saying, I find this hugely annoying and am very worried about the Ubuntu desktop14:42
jdstrandthe gnome-shell model is far too brittle...14:43
didrocksjdstrand: seems upstream is telling it's not really possible without a large rewrite: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=136766614:43
ubot5bugzilla.redhat.com bug 1367666 in gnome-shell "[Wayland] Stability is worse compared to X11 session due to intolerance for display server or gnome-shell crashes" [Unspecified,New]14:43
didrocks(see comment 4)14:43
jdstrandman14:45
didrocks(look at the rest of the discussion as well)14:45
jdstrandI was pulling my hair out for a long time with mutter and gjs crashes in zesty, then there was an update and things were ok (I used no extensions). now I'm using the ubuntu desktop (and really like it), but instability is back (I'm not blaming ubuntu extensions, its just I don't want to go back to pure gnome-shell)14:46
jdstrandI lost a ton of desktop state three times yesterday14:46
didrockswaow, so, it's not even "G-S running for a long time"14:47
jdstrandI may have to move to another DE to get work done :\ :(14:47
kenvandinehappened to me yesterday while just typing in vim :/14:47
didrocksI guess file the crash with stacktrace and we can only fix as many of them as possible :/14:47
jdstrandI launched virt-viewer and it happened14:47
jdstrandof course, when I logged back in, virt-viewer was fine14:47
didrocksor go to the Xorg session rather than switching to another session14:47
kenvandinei never get  a crash file for it14:47
didrocksDE*14:47
jdstrandfwiw, all the talk about Xwayland instability-- I've not seen an xwayland crash afaict, it's all mutter and gjs historically14:49
jdstrand(maybe xwayland is triggering those, idk)14:49
didrocksyeah, keep in mind that those comments are a year old14:49
didrocksso maybe xwayland got better, just other crashes…14:49
jdstrandyeah14:50
didrocks(btw, there is a new mutter / G-S with 3.26)14:50
jdstrandthat's the one I'm on14:50
didrocksG-S didn't change much, mutter did some fixes14:50
didrocksok14:50
jdstrand3.24 was fine14:50
didrocksgot a crash with it?14:50
didrocksyeah, I was surprised on jbicha updated to 3.25.91 the amount of crashes we got14:50
didrockswhen*14:50
didrocks(compared to 3.24)14:51
jdstrandI see a gnome-shell crash from yesterday, yes14:51
jdstrandin /var/crash14:51
didrocksyou were already running 3.26? I did update them today14:51
jdstrandoh, I don't have those, no14:52
didrocks(mutter/G-S/g-s-e)14:52
didrocksah14:52
didrockswell, I guess if you can retrace manually the one from yesterday14:52
jdstrandI checked the gjs 1.50 changelog and it didn't have any crash fixers14:52
didrockswe can at least look if the code changed14:52
jdstrands/changelog/debdiff in LP/14:52
jdstrandlet me upgrade and see what happens14:53
didrocksok :)14:53
didrocksI didn't get many random crashes (only once), I was able to get many crash easily with user changes, but those are now fixed14:53
didrocks(and that was 3.25.91)14:53
jdstranddidrocks: btw, is apport/whoopsie working right these days? istr seeing something re systemd-coredump is preferred, but installing it breaks apport/whoopsie14:54
* jdstrand doens't have it installed at present14:54
didrocksjdstrand: I *think* seb fixed update-notifier to launch apport on wayland14:55
didrocksjdstrand: but you will have to manually retrace anyway, as you don't have latest version…14:55
* jdstrand is in updated gnome-shell/mutter/etc15:14
* jdstrand crosses fingers15:14
jackpot51What happened to gst_install_plugins_async, the Totem automated plugin installer?15:39
jackpot51Found it in sessioninstaller15:43
Laneywe're using the implementation from packagekit with gnome-software now, not sessioninstaller15:45
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC
jackpot51Yeah, I know. gstreamer1.0-packagekit15:55
jackpot51But Pop is using AppCenter, not GNOME Software15:56
LaneySure.15:57
jbicha…but AppCenter is not in either Debian or Ubuntu and is mostly targetted at 16.04 LTS right now right?15:57
LaneySo you can do what Software does and implement the PackageKit session interface to handle codec installation in there.15:58
LaneyOr keep using sessioninstaller.15:58
