* willcooke looks at the holiday calendar07:48
oSoMoNgood morning willcooke07:49
willcookehey oSoMoN07:50
oSoMoNPentecost might be a national holiday in several countries07:50
oSoMoNhere it's not a national holiday, but it might be a local one depending on where you live07:50
willcookeSeems it is in France07:51
willcookeDa'cour07:51
willcookeAlso big in Ivory Coast and Iceland07:52
ackkhi, after latest updates on bionic I'm seeing a weird behavior. every ~3s, i have a very short screen "freeze", which is mostly noticeable when moving the mouse or typing. I'm not sure how can I debug what's causing it. any ideas?08:03
TrevinhoMorning08:04
Laney|O|08:04
willcookeackk, anything in the logs?  Are you running Wayland or X (probably doesnt matter).  might be useful to have top open to see if something jumps to 100% CPU when it freezes08:06
ackkwillcooke, noting relevant in dmesg, and no cpu jumps that I can see. I'm running Wayland08:07
ackkwillcooke, (and a plain GNOME session, if that could matter)08:07
ackkwillcooke, the freeze is very brief, the machine is usable but it's noticeable especially when you move the mouse08:07
willcookeackk, shouldnt matter.  Give X a go and see if it does the same thing?  That might narrow it down at least.  Syslog is likely to have more useful info that dmesg08:07
ackkwillcooke, oh, you're right I see https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/Nmx4JHJrrY/ in syslog08:08
ackkwillcooke, that's repeated. I wonder if system-monitor is the cause08:09
ackkoddly, it seems to work properly08:09
willcookeit probably restarts quick enough that you dont notice (apart from perhaps the freeze)08:09
dufluackk, bionic right? I see the same problem on every machine I install cosmic on (so far)08:09
ackkduflu, yes bionic08:09
ackkwillcooke, yes, it seems to be it08:09
ackkwillcooke, I had seed a similar error in the past but I thought that was fixed?08:10
ackk(about trying to access deallocated objects)08:10
ackksigh, it seemed they had fixed the plugin to work with bionic's gnome08:11
ackkwillcooke, thanks for the tip, at least the issue doesn't show anymore08:12
willcookeackk, np08:14
LaneyTrevinho: hey, can you look into those comments on the gdm thing please?08:34
Laneyalso, how was your weekend in london?08:34
Laneythe great weather continues08:34
TrevinhoLaney: yes, I will. i noticed those last friday08:35
TrevinhoLaney: great i was able to see many friends living here... I always love London, eventually :-)08:35
Laney\o/08:35
Laneyare you in the office?08:36
Trevinhonot yet.. Heading in a bit.08:38
Trevinhowhat about you?08:39
Laneyyeah was nice, didn't do anything special just hanging around here08:40
Laneysowed some more sweetcorn and courgettes/squash ;-)08:41
Laneygourdgeous08:41
popeywillcooke: remember I mentioned full screen windows on 2nd monitor have no controls? Seems it's only firefox. Can you reproduce?08:46
popey(perhaps this new funky CSD stuff in FF60)08:47
willcookepopey, testing08:51
willcookeworks08:51
popeysorry, I said "full screen" I mean "maximised"08:51
willcookeat least I think it does08:51
willcookepopey, https://imgur.com/a/btYlgbP08:53
popeyhuh. I must have some reminant of unity kicking around, as you suggested. I still have my window controls on the left for example.08:54
willcookeyeah I think it's a Unity hangover08:54
willcookebut no idea what08:54
popeyhm. is there a gnome shell dconf reset magic thing?08:54
xnoxunity-default-settings or some such, maybe touch default settings?08:55
willcookemorning xnox08:56
popeywillcooke: some judicious file removal and dconf resets fixed it, thanks!09:19
willcookepopey, woot!09:22
popeyWhere should I filed bugs which affect only the snap of firefox and not the deb?10:25
xnoxwillcooke, can seeded-snaps knowledgeable people review branches attached to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1767896 ? looks like seeded snaps missing a "dependency"10:28
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1767896 in OEM Priority Project "Live 18.04 with broken seed causes snapd high CPU usage" [Critical,Confirmed]10:28
Laneyxnox: you can merge those10:30
xnoxLaney, ok. but i don't quite understand it. I thought that there are no dependencies between snaps... and how would existing installs gain the dep?10:37
xnoxdo we need to respin desktop isos?10:37
xnoxare there any other missing deps?10:37
Laneyxnox: I think comment 13 and 15 answer your questions10:38
* xnox rereads10:38
xnoxah, thanks10:39
Laney:>10:43
dufluxnox, watching the logs in a cosmic live session I got the impression that was causing frequent and short shell freezes/stutter. Would that be right?10:49
dufluOr Laney ^10:49
LaneyIf it's as CPU intensive as it says, could be...10:50
Laneysee if it stops when that missing snap gets installed?10:50
dufluYeah. Also I need to log off10:50

LaneyGunnarHj: I'm going to upload your dh-translations to cosmic now, thanks for that13:08
Laneysuggest watching things over the next little while before you decide on SRUing anything?13:08
GunnarHj_Laney: Yay! Right, I'll coordinate with jbicha about a possible SRU.13:32
LaneyGunnarHj_: Why weren't icons and keywords stripped before?13:34
LaneyI hope there's not some place that isn't using a library to read those...13:34
GunnarHj_Laney: No idea to be honest. Assuming it was a oversight.13:37
Laneyguess we'll find out :-)13:37
LaneyI personally probably wouldn't try to SRU that bit13:37
Laneyit is up13:38
GunnarHj_Laney: We have stripped those for g-c-c during a few months now (via d/rules), and I haven't heard about any issues.13:38
LaneyOK, but SRUs are about minimising risk and this seems to not minimise it13:39
GunnarHj_Laney: Indeed. That part is indeed not important enough for SRUing.13:39
LaneyAnyways, lets see how it goes in cosmic for a bit13:40
Laneymerci beaucoup!13:40
GunnarHj_Laney: Thank you for providing guidance and sponsorship!13:40
xnoxLaney, so we did not get to the bottom of what creates the serial-getty@ wants symlink, have we?13:59
xnoxLaney, should I email foundations-crew & server-crew to figure it out?14:00
tseliotLaney: hi, do you know if there is a recommended way to SRU a fix for pulseaudio (in bionic)? Shall I commit my changes in the git branch for cosmic first?14:08
tseliotxnox: I might need to backport some fixes for logind too about this problem, when I have the time (it should be about 3 commits) https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/839314:11
ubot5-ngsystemd bug 8393 in systemd "DRM devices opened by logind stay referenced indefinitely by PID 1" (comments: 2) [Closed]14:11
ubot5bug 8393 in openoffice.org (Ubuntu) "RTF documents not associated to OOO" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/839314:11
xnoxtseliot, bug report with SRU template and commit ids from upstream repo to backport; and I can handle an sru backport.14:26
tseliotxnox: great, I'll do that. Thanks14:27
Laneyxnox: nope - you can do if you like, I was hoping stgraber would turn up but maybe he was off14:33
Laneytseliot: I'm not familiar with pulseaudio in particular, but the bug should be fixed in cosmic too, yeah14:33
tseliotLaney: ok, I'll try to do as the previous uploaders did, and hope for the best. Thanks14:34
Laneytseliot: if there's not a branch, making one for bionic wouldn't be a bad idea14:35
Laneyand then update that in debian/control14:35
tseliotLaney: they have an ubuntu-bionic branch https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-audio-dev/pulseaudio/log/?h=ubuntu-bionic14:37
Laneysweet14:37
tseliotI think I'll use the "ubuntu" branch first, for cosmic, and then I'll use "ubuntu-bionic" for the SRU14:37
Laneymakes sense14:38
tseliotfinally fixing LP: #405294 would save us a lot of a pain14:38
ubot5Launchpad bug 405294 in pulseaudio (Ubuntu) "A2DP Bluetooth audio skips terribly ["Skipping NNN us (= MMM bytes) in audio stream"]" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/40529414:38

oSoMoNhave a good evening everyone!16:43
GunnarHj_sil2100: Thanks for taking on the missing codeset bug. Then I don't need dev hunting for that one. :)17:16
GunnarHj_Laney: I got a build fail msg about pkgbinarymangler. Did you request a rebuild?17:24
LaneyGunnarHj_: Yeah looks like the tests aren't 100% great17:25
GunnarHj_Laney: I see. Success now anyway.17:25
