[13:46] <mrpandey> I installed Xubuntu 18.04 just yesterday (22 May). I removed the default media player Parole and installed MPV and Quod Libet. None of them is showing up in drop down of Xfce4 Pulseaudio Plugin. Parole did show up there (before I removed it). After removing it and installing the other two, the list of Known Media Players in properties of Pulseautio plugin is empty. Can anyone help me out here?

[17:55] <flocculant> pleia2 knome - can we have some twittering g+ love for the new stuff - done fb
[18:07] <pleia2> sure
[18:13] <flocculant> pleia2: thanks :)
[18:23] <pleia2> all done :)
[18:31] <flocculant> pleia2: you're awesome sauce
[18:34] <pleia2> <3
[18:58] <knome> thanks pleia2 
[19:04] <flocculant> I assume pleia2 did g+ - can;t see a tweet
[19:05] <willem> I saw a tweet
[19:07] <flocculant> ok - perhaps because no account

[19:11] <flocculant> ta
[19:17] <krytarik> Curious, I also don't see it on the board either way yet. :3
[19:22] <krytarik> And in this context noticed, on the website the Google+ link should be 'https://plus.google.com/+xubuntu' (otherwise one gets redirected to there anyway), and the Facebook one should have 'https:' on it (same)
[19:28] <krytarik> ..Oh there, down the line...
[20:17] <Unit193> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2018-May/004489.html  oh hey, we should stop using bzr.
[20:24] <flocculant> I never see Xubuntu posts showing up Planet Ubuntu via the feedreader I use - but I see all the other flavour stuff
[20:37] <Unit193> https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~planet-ubuntu/config/main/view/head:/config.ini#L73 hmm.
[20:39] <flocculant> yea - I knew that was right at some point
[21:26] <tracker8> Does anyone figured out how to "Screen Tearing Free" on XFWM 4.13? I'm on Ubuntu 18.04 with XFWM 4.13 from QA Experimental PPA and it still doesn't work =(
[21:28] <tracker8> I'm getting these errors:
[21:28] <tracker8> (xfwm4:2750): xfwm4-WARNING **: 18:27:30.953: GL not available (xfwm4:2750): xfwm4-WARNING **: 18:27:31.011: Dismissing XPresent as unusable, error 3 for request 148
[21:28] <Unit193> Thus, not using xpresent.
[21:28] <tracker8> I'm starting to think the problem is with Ubuntu's xpresent package
[21:29] <tracker8> Unit193: are you using this version too "xfwm4 version 4.13.0git.7d9e6ced (revision 7d9e6ced)"?
[21:32] <Unit193> Yeah.
[21:34] <tracker8> Unit193: does it work for you?
[21:35] <Unit193> (xfwm4:1417): xfwm4-WARNING **: 20:13:27.447: GL not available
[21:35] <Unit193> (xfwm4:1417): xfwm4-WARNING **: 20:13:31.002: Dismissing XPresent as unusable, error 3 for request 148
[21:35] <Unit193> But xfwm works, so I don't complain.  Netbook it has a couple more quirks, but still "works".  Been thinking about downgrading back to the version from the repo there.
[21:36] <Unit193> tracker8: My card is a bit old at this point, though.
[21:37] <tracker8> Unit193: so you have the same problem as here. You don't have screen tearing probably because you have a good screen.
[21:37] <tracker8> I think the problem is with Ubuntu package.
[21:39] <Unit193> I think you overestimate my hardware.
[21:43] <Unit193> tracker8: Also, that's the latest upstream, and git didn't really have anything else.  Also, there's not really any strange build options in use.
[21:44] <tracker8> Unit193: https://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2017-June/053874.html
[21:44] <tracker8> Unit193: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13257
[21:44] <tracker8> it seems to be a problem with Ubuntu's XPresent
[21:45] <tracker8> Mate also implemented DRI3 on 1.20, and it seems some users cat get the "screen tearing free" on Ubuntu Mate
[21:45] <tracker8> Unit193: https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13693
[21:51] <tracker8> Well, I hope someone has figured out how to makeXFWM 4.13 screen tearing free to work on Ubuntu =). I will read the logs latter
[21:51] <tracker8> Byt
[21:52] <Unit193> You could try rebuilding both, I guess...But not sure I'd expect much.
[22:56] <sublevel> hi channel,  I saw the blogpost from march saying more testers needed and thought I'd give it a go. getting 404 error on bionic daily amd64 download link here: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/384/builds/173056/downloads
[22:57] <knome> sublevel, bionic, or 18.04, is released already. we've moved onto "cosmic" (18.10) testing...
[22:57] <knome> but it's really really early for that now
[22:57] <sublevel> ah, thanks,  yes my next question was going to be 'does that even need testing'
[22:58] <sublevel> as I saw cosmic was the one linked from https://wiki.xubuntu.org/qa:installing
[22:58] <knome> i mean it doesn't hurt, but it's more useful a bit later in the cycle :)
[23:01] <knome> you'll want to talk to flocculant or akxwi-dave for details
[23:01] <knome> sublevel, ^
[23:07] <sublevel> I wondered if testing on 18.04 was useful for 18.04.1,    and assumed if testing wasn't required then the dailies wouldn't be listed there on iso.qa.ubuntu.com with test instructions
[23:07] <sublevel> but I'm just learning my way around all this stuff :) 
[23:07] <knome> well yes it's not totally useless
[23:08] <sublevel> nicks noted, thanks
[23:08] <knome> upgrade testing from 16.04 to 18.04(.1) is useful at this point as well
[23:08] <knome> but also sooo much more useful if you do it on real hardware/system
[23:09] <knome> but you can only do it once really unless you back up
[23:09] <sublevel> I could install 16.04 and try an upgrade,  on bare metal
[23:09] <knome> yeah, the thing is that then it'd be an upgrade from a "clean" 16.04
[23:09] <sublevel> right, yes
[23:10] <knome> but i'd still say valuable
[23:10] <sublevel> I'm on lubuntu at the moment, don't have a previous xubuntu install
[23:11] <knome> lubuntu needs help too :)
[23:12] <sublevel> good point, I could test 16.04 -> 18.04 upgrade for them
