seb128hey Laney Trevinho08:08
seb128had a good w.e?08:08
Trevinhoyeah, good one... Ubuntu talk on Sat and some small roadtrip around yesterday08:09
didrocksjibel: it's going to be few line diffs, ok, will batch it then08:09
seb128dupondje, well, the people here are mostly on intel only configs I think, unsure how common hybrid configs are in people using the dev cycle08:09
jibeldupondje, I used to have the 1st issue you describe but I cannot confirm it still exists because now my system simply don't boot with an external monitor attached08:10
dufluI think to have a problem with hybrid also implies you're using two or more displays. So that's less common again08:14
dufluIs there any way to tell the system to always have debug symbols installed?08:15
dufluIf you just install dbg debs then they get automatically uninstalled on update08:15
seb128duflu, they should, do you have an update log? maybe is that dbg or ddebs? maybe it's just that the ddebs server is slower to update and by the time you update the ddeb matching version is not available yet?08:17
dupondjeseb128: laptop with 2 gpu's :( and always using a second screen :)08:18
seb128dupondje, right, that's uncommon, I think most people on the channel have either dell or lenovo laptops with intel only video08:18
seb128well uncommon here, among those using the devel cycle08:19
dufluseb128, yes but I don't want to fall down that rabbit hole. I have too many other holes to finish with first08:19
seb128k08:19
seb128well, to reply to your question they should stay installed and there is no specific "magic" you can use08:19
seb128if they don't you have a specific issue and that needs investigating at some point08:20
Laneyhey duflu didrocks seb12808:20
dupondjeseb128: dell here also :) hehe08:21
seb128dupondje, well I'm not trying to argue over details, I guess you got what I tried to say?08:25
dupondjeseb128: yea sure, just want to make sure it gets fixed before release date, else alot of users will have issues I guess08:26
seb128right, I was not arguing it shouldn't be fixed, just responding to your comment about not getting more complains about the issue08:27
alexarnaudHello all09:13
seb128Laney, can you make gnome-online-accounts ignore the gnome-photos/3.27.92-1ubuntu1 autopkgtest results? they don't need to migrate together09:15

sil2100Trevinho: hey! I rejected temporarily the ubuntu-themes SRU you pushed as the Bileto silo seems to need a rebuild09:23
alexarnaudseb128: I don't plan to work on accessibility bugs on the Ubuntu installer. I'm only involved in QA for the moment. You should be aware there are for example the GTK dialog to save file that is not correctly accessible. I never spend time to report bug about it.09:23
Trevinhosil2100: mh ok thanks09:23
Trevinhoi'll do it09:23
seb128alexarnaud, k, is that a regression? would be worth opening a bug about if you can do that09:23
sil2100Trevinho: also, I see the bug is targetting artful as well - we expecting a fix for that series too?09:24
alexarnaudseb128: Yes it's a regression. It works correctly on Ubuntu 16.0409:24
Trevinhosil2100: no, as that change  has not been backported there iirc09:24
seb128alexarnaud, do you know if it's reported upstream?09:24
alexarnaudseb128: I don't understand, it's only bugs related to the ubuntu installer.09:25
alexarnaudseb128: On Fedora it seems that it works.09:25
seb128alexarnaud, we have dialogs to save files in our installer?!09:26
seb128where?09:26
seb128Laney, I'm looking at fixing the gnome-photos autopkgtests meanwhile but I don't see a reason to block goa on that09:30
alexarnaudseb128: I'm talking about other accessibility bug that exist in free software so I couldn't spend time to report bug to developers and fix bugs.09:30
Laneyseb128: wait, let me try to re-run against the old version first09:31
seb128alexarnaud, right, and I asked if that one had been reported upstream, to what you replied that it was only in the ubuntu installer09:31
seb128Laney, thx09:31
alexarnaudIt's just a example to explain you that accessibility bugs should be fixed by each developers on their software. Not only by impacted users.09:32
seb128alexarnaud, anyway thanks for the notice, I'm writting that one on my list of things to check09:32
seb128alexarnaud, I'm not saying users should fix them, just that we are really busy and might not manage to look at that issue so a patch would help, if you are too busy as well I understand09:32
seb128on that note stepping out for a bit09:33
duflualexarnaud, Ctrl+Alt+T also fails in the live session. Might be a general problem with shortcuts09:36

willcookeUnder virtualbox, if you suspend via the top-right menu (hold down on the power button) you can't then resume it again.  Seems to be a generic linux problem.  Could we detect if you're on a virtual machine and hide that option?11:25
willcookewow, fuill session crash on Artful running xorg11:48

jbichagood morning12:09
jbichaseb128: btw, some people noticed this change and didn't like it https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/commit/2fdb48fa12:10
jbichathere are a few things that don't work as well: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues/2212:11
seb128hey jbicha12:11
seb128jbicha, "people" like ubuntu users? what is the complain they are having?12:11
=== pstolowski|afk is now known as pstolowski|lunch
jbichaone complaint is from desktop users who think their computer should never suspend12:11
jbichathe other is that if no one is logged in to GDM, the machine will auto-suspend and there is no gui way to stop it doing that12:12
seb128right12:12
jbichapersonally, I'm happy with the new default here12:13
jbichaPhoronix did an article this weekend complaining about it (the author was apparently not aware it was a GNOME change)12:14
seb128let's wait to get extra feedback but I can see how some users can dislike it (I don't like that default personnally) ... do you know what other platforms (win10, macOS) do?12:14
seb128shrug12:14
willcookeand indeed if you're running in a VM, then it'll screw you because you can't resume12:15
jbichawillcooke: I think it might be smart enough to detect that case. Someone should try though…12:15
seb128lol12:15
seb128willcooke, is that even a reported issue?12:16
willcookeseb128, it's about to be :)12:16
seb128hehe12:16
willcookeI was trying to decide if I should log it against gnome-shell or kernel.  I guess both.12:16
seb128jbicha, I think willcooke just pointed out that it's not12:16
willcookewell, you *can* suspend on a virtualised machine by holding down the power off button12:17
jbichawillcooke: um, I'm thinking gnome-settings-daemon instead of gnome-shell12:17
willcookein the top right corner12:17
willcookekk, I'll start with g-s-d12:17
willcookethe resume issue is a kernel bug though I think12:18
willcookeseb128, jbicha https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/175889612:22
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1758896 in gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu) "Machine fails to come back from suspend when running as a virtual machine" [Undecided,New]12:22
seb128willcooke, thx12:23
jbichaI'm checking point 3…12:23
willcookeLaney, does your xps 13 have an nvidia card?12:25
Laneyno12:25
willcookekk, thx12:25
Laneysozzles12:26
jbichawillcooke: um, what VM are you using?12:42
jbichawillcooke: ok, in VirtualBox, try the menu > Machine > ACPI Shutdown to resume after suspending12:44
jbichanot very intuitive but it sort of makes sense :(12:45
jbichawith VM, I get a notification "Automatic suspend   Computer will suspend very soon because of inactivity." (but it's lying because it doesn't actually auto-suspend12:50
willcookejbicha, ah yes, that worked, nice one.  Could be invalid then13:05
willcookethat bug I mean13:05
jbichaI commented on the bug. You're welcome to close it or whatever :)13:05
willcookeWhether or not we ship the default 30 mins timeout is a different matter. FWIW, I dont think we should in the standard image.  OEM team might *have* to ship it, if they want energy star13:05
jbicha(20 minutes)13:06
jbichawhy do you think we should disable auto-suspend?13:06
seb128jbicha, do you know what other platforms are doing (win10, macOS)?13:12
jbichaseb128: no, sorry13:14
seb128jbicha, I think windows does autosuspend but wakes up on keyboard/mouse activity so it's transparent to users, where under linux you need to press the power button which is sort of WTH13:19
seb128users expect to be able to go back to their desktop and use it13:19
seb128imho unless we make keyboard/mouse events resume the machine we should disable autosuspend by default13:20
willcookeI have a machine that can resume from USB events, I had to frig about with the kernel to make it work - so I think it can be done.13:23
seb128not likely something for this cycle though13:24
willcookeyeah, totally13:24
jbichaseb128: could you open a tracking bug for this issue?13:24
seb128jbicha, well that's just my personnal opinion, unsure I'm right13:25
jbichaI assume we would override from ubuntu-settings if we do want to change the default13:25
seb128right13:25
jbichamaybe discuss in tomorrow's meeting then13:25
seb128+113:26
jdstrandseb128: hey. it seems like in bionic there is some churn wrt synaptics touchpads. I have one and natural scrolling and middle click don't work right. I used to use an xorg.conf.d file to fix this, but as of updates in the last few days, that is now not working13:28
jdstrandseb128: what should I be doing to adjust natural scrolling and middle click?13:29
* jdstrand notes that gnome-tweaks and gnome-settings doesn't work13:29
mgedminapt remove xserver-xorg-input-synaptics?  gnome-settings only works with the libinput driver13:30
jbichajdstrand: are you using Wayland?13:31
jdstrandmgedmin: I read that Ubuntu was patching 18.04 to allow it to work13:31
jdstrandjbicha: I went back to X1113:31
jdstrandbecause wayland broke middle click in a way that wouldn't work any more13:31
jbichajdstrand: yes, Synaptics should work work with the X11 Ubuntu/GNOME sessions now13:31
jdstrandkeep in mind, my info is a week or two old13:32
jdstrand(background info that is)13:32
jdstrandright13:32
jbichathe natural scrolling switch in gnome-control-center worked for me when I tried it with synaptics on Ubuntu on X11 earlier13:32
jdstrandjbicha: what does 'should work with the X11...' mean? it should work from the settings guis?13:33
jbichayes13:33
jdstrandlet me try again. it did *not* before13:33
jbichawe updated mutter and gnome-control-center for that so be sure you upgraded and at least restarted your session since then13:33

seb128or 3 fingers?13:44
jdstrandtwo fingers tap doesn't work13:45
jdstrandtwo fingers click doesn't work13:45
seb128jdstrand, GNOME changed https://git.gnome.org/browse/gsettings-desktop-schemas/commit/?id=77ff1d913:45
seb128unsure if that's your issue13:45
jdstrand3 fingers tap doesn't work13:45
seb128:/13:46
jdstrandbecause none of this used to work afair, I used to configure the touchpad to change the 'dimensions' of the left and right click on the touchpad to create a space for a middle button13:47
seb128jdstrand, does it make any difference if in tweaks -> keyboard & mouse ->  mouse click emulation you select "area"?13:47
seb128ah :/13:47
jdstrandthis morning, that stopped working. I don't expect it wo work now that I moved my xorg.conf.d aside13:47
seb128jdstrand, open a bug on mutter as duflu suggested on the gtk bug I pointed out earlier13:48
seb128jdstrand, his hack to make "synaptics handled" limited how it's being handled it seems13:48
jdstrandseb128: 'area' would be *exactly* what I want, but it isn't working :\13:49
seb128sounds like a driver issue in your case :/13:49
seb128jdstrand, can you get it to work by settings the properties by hand using "synclient" after the session start?13:50
seb128like "synclient RightButtonAreaLeft=0"13:51
jdstrandseb128: it looks like the switch from fingers to area back to fingers reset stuff13:51
jdstrandand now 2 and 3 finger tap works13:51
seb128:/13:52
seb128can you restart your session and see if it still works?13:52
seb128or if you need to switch forth/back to have it working?13:52
* jdstrand restarts13:52
jdstrandseb128: restarting the session with just 'fingers' and 2 and 3 finger tap no longer works13:55
seb128and if you change to area and back to fingers now?13:55
jdstrandmeh, gnome-tweaks says it is area13:55
jdstrandjeez13:55
* jdstrand wonders why it didn't remember that I put it back on fingers13:56
jdstrandto be clear, on session start it was in area even though on session exit it was on fingers13:57
jdstrandI changed to fingers and 2 and 3 finger tap works13:57
jdstrandwith area right click worked, but not middle13:57
* jdstrand restarts session again13:58
seb128jdstrand, gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.peripherals.touchpad click-method13:58
seb128that's where the config is set13:59
jdstrandok, this time the restart and it stayed on fingers14:00
jdstrandnot sure what happened before14:00
seb128and 2/3 fingers click worked?14:00
jdstrandgsettings get says 'fingers' and 2/3 fingers worked14:01

jdstrandI can work with that14:01

GunnarHjHi Laney, my thought with using your branch as the target for the g-c-c proposal was that it could be added as additional commits to your merge request. After all they are closely related. Is that not a good idea?15:06
LaneySure, that makes sense15:06
LaneyI don't think the Launchpad bug is not fixed though15:06
GunnarHjLaney: So then I keep the target branch, add the C code stuff, and file a new LP bug?15:07
Trevinhokenvandine: yeah... Maybe an md5 check or just the changed date. And also real home change could be tracked15:09
LaneyGunnarHj: Sure. I mean, we can fix more bugs by updating a previous patch, that's no problem.15:09
GunnarHjOk.15:09
GunnarHjLaney: On a quite different topic: Did you ever fix systemd so it's able to handle the im-config service? Or should we keep the hacks in 18.04?15:11
LaneyGunnarHj: I did quite a bit of work on it a few weeks ago, but it's not finished yet, that's an 18.10 / 3.30 topic now15:12
kenvandineTrevinho, yeah, i was thinking md5sum would be simpler15:12
kenvandineand fast15:13
GunnarHjLaney: I see. Initially I felt that the hacks were a bit fragile, but OTOH noone has complained yet, so  it's probably fine.15:13
kenvandineTrevinho, any suggestions how we can access Trash?15:14
kenvandinethere isn't an XDG variable for that15:14
LaneyGunnarHj: I think it's OK enough15:14
Laneyit's what snapd uses to put itself in $PATH too so it better work ;-)15:15
kenvandinewow, and md5sum of user-dirs.dir is much faster than a stat to get the modification time15:16
Trevinhokenvandine: mh, mhmh i think trash should be per snap though15:16
kenvandineTrevinho, that's fine... right now it blows up15:16
Trevinhokenvandine: mh, what app can I use for testing it?15:17
kenvandineactually, if it's per-snap, how do you ever empty it15:17
kenvandinegedit15:17
TrevinhoEh... We need to change gio for that very likely15:17
kenvandinethat's what i was afraid of :(15:17
TrevinhoFrom file opener o mean?15:17
kenvandineyes15:17
TrevinhoMhmh..15:18
kenvandinei don't think it's even useful in the file selector15:18
TrevinhoNot sure, but I think there's a way to disable it15:18
kenvandinei'll look15:18
Trevinhokenvandine: however consider that trash should work as it does for removable devices IMHO15:19
kenvandineindeed... but users might end up having large files in per-snap trash15:20
kenvandineand never empty the trash15:20

willcookejbicha, more of an upstream issue isnt it?16:07
jbichawillcooke: no, the Rhythmbox behavior is an Ubuntu-specific patch16:08
willcookeah16:08
jbichait's supposed to be helpful but it confuses people too16:08
willcookestrange decision on our part there then16:08
willcookeyeah, confusing16:08
willcookelemme see if I can find m_pt16:09
willcookejbicha, found him.  Yeah he said that it's there because of the sound menu being promoted as a feature, but since that's not there any more, then he's OK to drop the patch.16:11
willcookeOne less patch seems like a good idea16:11
jbichaoh cool16:12
jbichaseb128: ^ does that sound good to you too?16:12
willcookeI'm not espeically precious about it, but I guess it's a bit risky this late in the cycle16:12
willcookebut yeah, given a vote... +1 to drop16:12
willcookegotta get a train, might be back online from the train if I get a seat16:13
kenvandineTrevinho, when you have time, please look at that PR again16:34
didrocksgood evening16:35
ximionLaney: I might have found the magic bullet to make asgen's memory consumption sane16:52
ximionon Debian for the past two days, it is consuming almost all memory the machine has, but never more (and also frees memory if you launch something else), as I would expect the thing to behave16:53
ximiontweaking the code to pass more containers by reference, reserving memory a bit smarter, and most importantly using malloc allocator-backed HashMap/HashSet containers16:55
ximionseems to have been the thing to do16:56
ximionI'll need to see this run for longer and with more complex workloads (fonts!) though to really celebrate - it looks quite promising so far though16:56
oSoMoNchrisccoulson, chromium-browser 65.0.3325.181 is ready for publication to trusty, xenial and artful in the stage PPA17:19
jbichaandyrock: I enabled livepatch via software-properties and it installed from the edge channel. Do you have a plan for how to get users on to the stable channel?17:35
ahasenackhi, I'm being hit by https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/issues/22, but my use case isn't listed there. I have spotify playing in the foreground, and after 20min the computer just suspends. Is this the same bug, or something else?17:43
jbichaahasenack: I think that's https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=705942#c2117:44
ubot5Gnome bug 705942 in general "Having inhibits not considered "active"" [Normal,New]17:44
jbichawhich is related fallout from that change17:44
ahasenackthx, I'll subscribe to both17:45
andyrockjbicha: nope17:49
andyrockhopefully before release17:49
jbichaandyrock: would it be better to switch software-properties to use stable now so that there are less people potentially stranded on edge?17:51
jbichaor if not, could whoever runs that snap at least promote the bionic fixes to candidate or beta? edge sounds risky17:53
andyrockwe just wanted to get some testing17:54
andyrockI'll ask tomorrow again what their timeline17:54
jbichathanks17:54
andyrockalso because we need this for the ubuntu-welcome thing17:55
seb128jbicha, yeah, rhythmbox seems a design issue to wontfix18:07
seb128jbicha, k for the MIRs18:08
seb128cyphermox, did you actually review those or are you just looking if a team is subscribed (and if so what's the goal behind just doing that check?)18:08
jbichaseb128: did you see Will's follow-up about possibly dropping the rhythmbox quit patch?18:09
seb128jbicha, no, where?18:09
seb128ah, I saw now18:10
cyphermoxseb128: I reviewed it, why?18:16
cyphermoxnote, I'm interpreting "those" as meaning libbluray, the last thing I reviewed, because otherwise I don't know what you're referring to18:21
seb128cyphermox, right, sorry j_bicha listed libnfs as well and I though it was in the same category ... anyway, if you did a review and that' the only issue it would be nice to mention that in the comment, the 1 liner now doesn't convey that it was reviewed, just that it was bounced as incomplete due to the bug subscriber missing18:40
seb128cyphermox, also I really need to start that discussion with the MIR team about team subscriptions happening upfront, I think it would make more sense to do that in between accepted & promoted18:42
andyrockjbicha: I just asked. They're working on it (my guess is ~3 days)18:46
jbichaandyrock: ok, and do you think we should wait until then to do the software-properties upload to change the channel?18:47
andyrockyep18:48
jbichaok18:48
andyrockthe important thing is that we patch it before beta freeze18:49
andyrockfinal beta freeze18:49
andyrockso iirc next monday18:49
seb128jbicha, so yeah, unsure about rhythmbox, we need to look at the pro&con and what users like/dislike about it18:53
jbichadrop the patch and count up how much hate mail we get? ;)18:53
jbichamaybe we can discuss it at tomorrow's meeting then18:54
seb128we drop patch/do behaviour changes at the start of the cycle, not after feature freeze :/18:57
seb128but yeah, we can discuss that tomorrow18:57
jbichaahasenack: how are you running Spotify? is it installed? is it a Snap?19:00
ahasenackjbicha: I used a snap19:01
jbichaahasenack: there is an inhibit-suspend thing Spotify could set. I don't know if Snap has an interface for that… maybe you can try following up on that?19:02
ahasenackhm19:02
ahasenackwhat I could do is install the non-snap and see if the problem still happens19:02
jbichaok19:03
seb128jbicha, snapd has at least a screen-inhibit-control interface, unsure if that's enough thoguh19:05
jbichacool, do you know any apps that use that?19:06
seb128jbicha, vlc19:06
ahasenackhm, the deb wants to install libcurl319:06
ahasenackbut bionic is on libcurl419:07
ahasenackyeah, their deb is not really installable on bionic these days19:07
jbichaahasenack: ok, I verify that spotify is not using screen-inhibit-control but vlc does19:10
ahasenackhow did you check that, out of curiosity?19:10
jbichasnap interfaces19:10
ahasenackso there is an interface for that?19:10
jbicha(after installing spotify and vlc)19:10
ahasenackah, I see it19:10
ahasenackgood to know19:11
jbichameanwhile, I opened LP: #1759008 and set rls-bb-incoming so we can think about auto-suspend-by-default more tomorrow19:11

seb128if spotify tries to inhibit using that dbus interface it should lead to apparmor denies in the logs19:12
seb128jbicha, thx19:12
seb128ahasenack, you can probably install the libcurl3 deb on bionic19:12
ahasenackit removes whoopsie19:13
