slickymasterWorknoticed it12:33
knomeslickymasterWork, and while i looked at that page, we might want to make it a tad "longer" in the sense of saying more about the stuff we mention12:33
slickymasterWorkjust ack it12:33

bluesabreknome: we have the option of shipping overrides for the launchers if we choose to, and working with the MATE folks and whatnot12:55
knomebluesabre, sure, but that was not my question or concern... i'm fine with the launcher saying "Atril", but i needed to know if it said that or not to be able to refer to the right menu item in the documentation :P12:56

subhHi. I was looking into the bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings/+bug/1507983. The timeout configuration is not working at the time of login but it is working from lock screen. I turned on the debugging and checked the /var/log/lightdm/seat0-greeter.log after logging in, it says '** Message: [Configuration] Reading file: /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf' but it's not13:36
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1507983 in lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings (Ubuntu) "Timeout until screen blanks setting does nothing" [Undecided,Confirmed]13:36
subhusing the screensaver-timeout config. Any help is appreciated.13:36
flocculantsubh: first thing - are you using the same version of lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings? Pretty sure that issue's not visible here (using 1.2.1-2) definitely get blank at login if I wander off here14:08
subhflocculant: I was using 1.2.1-0ubuntu1 version which is available in 16.04.3 since the bug was last reported for 16.04.14:15
flocculantsubh: ok - so the next thing you need to find out if it's only seen in that older version. If it is - then the only way that would get back to 16.04.x would be with an SRU - I'm not sure fixing that would be important enough to qualify for SRU.14:25
flocculantwouldn't want you to do work and find it was all for no fix landing14:25
subhflocculant: makes sense. I will test it on the latest version and update here.14:28
subhflocculant: Tested on a fresh install of bionic with lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings version 1.2.1-2. Does not work on login screen. But lock screen works fine.15:11
flocculantI'll check again here in a minute - set it whatver random amount I can get it to at the low end15:35
flocculantsubh: ok - confirm setting that to less than 5 minutes and no screen blank at login screen15:43
flocculantbooting iso to check that too 15:43
flocculantI believe that the correct course of action to fix it now would be to fix it for bionic first - someone like bluesabre or Unit193 or ochosi will be able to confirm that15:45
flocculantiso logged out - wait and see what happens there15:47
flocculantso that fails after almost 50 minutes to blank16:29
knomepleia2, so i fought and made a scribus version of the flyer... and i think we're going to use that :P19:57
ochosiflocculant, subh: so the timeout doesn't do anything at all?20:02
ochosior does it just blank the screen after "a certain amount of time" but the setting has no effect?20:02
ochosifrom what i remember the greeter uses the system-wide settings of the x server20:03
ochosiso what you configure within your session with "xset s $time" as time to blank is pre-set on a systemwide level20:03
ochosii'll quickly check the source code to see what it actually tries to do there...20:05
ochosiok, so the screensaver is only supposed to run when the greeter is used as a lock screen, not as login screen20:09
ochosisimple as that20:09
ochosiok, commented on the bugreport20:12
ochosito clarify this for everyone20:12
flocculantochosi: thanks for looking :)20:16
ochosino problem20:18
