| duflu | Hi jibel | 08:15 |
| jibel | cpaelzer__, hi, I still have bug 1761497 which is pretty annoying for manual iso testing. Is there a way to listen to events like key strokes received by the guest? | 08:16 |

| cpaelzer | jibel: re-reading old bug ... | 08:18 |
| oSoMoN | salut jibel | 08:19 |
| jibel | cpaelzer, it's like the VM receives a keyboard event on boot | 08:20 |
| cpaelzer | jibel: is still the different host HW the only difference between good&bad systems? | 08:20 |
| cpaelzer | jibel: also if on an affected machine you start it via virt-manager but without a view of the guest graphics open - does it work then | 08:21 |
| cpaelzer | i.e. does the UI hve to be attached to trigger the issue? | 08:22 |
| jibel | cpaelzer, it's only on one machine, the HW is the only difference between good vs bad systems. | 08:23 |
| jibel | cpaelzer, and yes, the UI seems to have a role in triggering the bug | 08:24 |
| jibel | and it happens with any release booted on the guest (i tried with trusty) | 08:25 |
| cpaelzer | for the sake of trying to be a friendly helper I tried to reproduce this once more now - but it doesn't trigger | 08:25 |
| cpaelzer | let me think about potential debugging options that I might have forgotten | 08:26 |
| jibel | yeah, I think it's really a problem with the host difficult/impossible to reproduce on other hw | 08:27 |
| jibel | cpaelzer, if I start the VM directly from the manager without the view it works as expected | 08:28 |
| cpaelzer | you can send-key extra keystrokes, but I don't know of monitoring them | 08:28 |
| cpaelzer | might be an unwanted big-brother feature after all | 08:28 |
| cpaelzer | jibel: for the sake of trying almost random things - switching the video backend between spice/vnc maybe? | 08:30 |
| cpaelzer | not sure how your guest looks like atm | 08:30 |
| jibel | cpaelzer, ah, actually switching to vnc solves the problem | 08:32 |
| cpaelzer | jibel: are by any accident the working systems already on vnc only instead of spice? | 08:32 |
| cpaelzer | jibel: and/or is this a sufficient workaround for you for now? | 08:33 |
| jibel | cpaelzer, the working systems are using spice. | 08:36 |
| jibel | cpaelzer, The workaround is sufficient, thanks for your help. | 08:37 |
| jibel | I'll see if I can dig further | 08:37 |

| willcooke | hi duflu | 08:59 |
| willcooke | re: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons/+bug/1821933 | 08:59 |
| ubot5` | Ubuntu bug 1821933 in gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons (Ubuntu) "Touch input is offset with two screens (even appearing on the wrong screen)" [Undecided,New] | 08:59 |
| willcooke | I dont have any scaling set, do you want me to set it and retest? | 09:00 |
| duflu | willcooke, no if you can reproduce it with 100% then that's plenty | 09:00 |
| willcooke | roger | 09:00 |
| willcooke | comment posted | 09:02 |
| * duflu stops typing and looks | 09:03 | |
| duflu | willcooke, thanks. Back to being a pure gnome-shell bug. I did search for prior reports yesterday but found none | 09:04 |
| duflu | I can imagine the cause though | 09:04 |
| willcooke | jibel can reproduce, so I'm happy its not just me | 09:04 |
| duflu | The stage covers all monitors and possibly touch input is being scaled to that | 09:04 |
| duflu | So the rubber band would appear at the proportion of the full stage that's the same as the proportion across the touch screen | 09:05 |
| duflu | Or any touch would | 09:05 |
| duflu | I happened to order a tiny external monitor yesterday for such bugs but it is not touch | 09:05 |
| willcooke | duflu, do we need T_revinhos eyes on it? | 09:13 |
| duflu | willcooke, I can probably find the offending code myself but couldn't test any fix right now | 09:14 |
| willcooke | if you can stick it in a ppa, I'm happy to test | 09:15 |
| willcooke | as and why, like | 09:15 |
| willcooke | *when | 09:15 |
| duflu | willcooke, actually jibel beat you to it (bug 1723039) | 09:17 |
| ubot5` | bug 1723039 in gnome-shell (Ubuntu) "With 2 monitors, touches to the touch screen appear across both (and in the wrong place)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1723039 | 09:17 |
| duflu | which to use? | 09:17 |
| willcooke | I think that's different | 09:18 |
| willcooke | it talks about turning off one screen | 09:18 |
| duflu | willcooke, no he's only suggesting a solution I think | 09:18 |
| willcooke | "With an external monitor attached and the internal display being a touch screen, set the output to the external display only." | 09:19 |
| duflu | willcooke, oh, no. Same bug occurs even when the touch screen is off | 09:19 |
| willcooke | that's not the same thing | 09:19 |
| duflu | Still the same bug | 09:19 |
| willcooke | oki | 09:19 |
| willcooke | That bug is from 2017, but my machine has been find on cosmic and bionic | 09:19 |
| willcooke | so there's a regression there | 09:20 |
| willcooke | my bug has a video too, so..... ;D | 09:20 |
| jibel | duflu, different bugs | 09:23 |
| duflu | jibel, different situations yeah but the same fix should do it | 09:23 |
| duflu | Also there might have been a separate fix already to stop touches responding when a screen is off | 09:23 |
| jibel | no, my case was about disabling the touch screen when the display is off | 09:23 |
| duflu | Yes | 09:24 |
| jibel | the other one is about the offset when 2 screens are on. How is it the same thing? | 09:24 |
| duflu | jibel, oh, yes I see. When you say actions are visible you mean actions without a touch location. | 09:25 |
| jibel | yes | 09:25 |
| duflu | jibel, OK no problem. Sounds familiar so I think that might have been fixed in recent years | 09:25 |
| duflu | Now checking | 09:25 |
| willcooke | morning jibel | 09:27 |
| willcooke | oops | 09:29 |
| duflu | jibel, your bug is magically fixed. Apparently | 09:33 |
| willcooke | ah, now then.... | 09:37 |
| willcooke | If I turn off the laptop screen, which is the touch screen | 09:37 |
| willcooke | and only have video out on the external monitor | 09:37 |
| willcooke | then touch events still work | 09:37 |
| willcooke | and | 09:37 |
| willcooke | they are positioned on the external screen, more or less in the right place | 09:38 |
| willcooke | like, if I touch in the middle of the (disabled) laptop screen, the event happens more or less in the middle of the external screen | 09:38 |
| willcooke | I assume "more or less" because the screens are different sizes and resolutions | 09:38 |
| duflu | willcooke, hmm. I just closed that because I found the fix in mutter 3.31.4 | 09:45 |
| duflu | I guess it's not fully off? | 09:46 |
| willcooke | I guess so, the laptop lid is up but it looks like the backlight is off | 09:53 |
| duflu | willcooke, it took me longer to remember how to PPA than to actually write a patch | 10:15 |
| duflu | Give it some minutes | 10:15 |
| willcooke | duflu, this can wait if it's already EOW for you | 10:16 |
| duflu | willcooke, fair point. But wait for the build and let me know: https://launchpad.net/~vanvugt/+archive/ubuntu/lp1821933 | 10:16 |
| willcooke | duflu, merci | 10:16 |
| duflu | willcooke, ugh. Actually the math is wrong and there is missing info I can't just fix :( | 10:19 |
| willcooke | nw | 10:19 |
| willcooke | Sounds like I should open a bug uptream | 10:19 |
| willcooke | I'll test on Fedora too | 10:21 |
| duflu | willcooke, yeah that can't hurt to log an upstream bug. The problematic function is the one in the patch I mentioned, but a fix would need to actually cover more code than that. If it's possible at all right now | 10:22 |
| duflu | willcooke, I guess my faulty patch might work only for cases where the touch screen is at the top left | 10:23 |
| willcooke | I'll test it anyway, see what happens | 10:25 |
| duflu | I think if the touchscreen and the LCD below it are the same resolution AND placed at the top left of all monitors, THEN it might work | 10:27 |
| duflu | So it may have the illusion of working in the end, but should not be proposed as a fix | 10:29 |
| willcooke | kk | 10:29 |
| willcooke | duflu, so for an upstream bug, do you think it should go against gnome shell? | 10:30 |
| duflu | willcooke, no it's purely mutter | 10:30 |
| willcooke | kk | 10:30 |
| duflu | I'd just leave a gnome-shell task in Launchpad to help others find it. That minimizes duplicates | 10:30 |
| duflu | Also minimises | 10:30 |
| willcooke | :) | 10:31 |
| duflu | Night | 10:31 |
| willcooke | see you! | 10:31 |
| willcooke | have a good one | 10:31 |
| tsimonq2 | jibel: ack, but they are meant to be published at some point? | 15:47 |
| tsimonq2 | jibel: I ask because Lubuntu would like to jump on the train, so to speak. :) | 15:47 |
| jibel | tsimonq2, yes, once it's installable. | 16:00 |
| jibel | I'll tell you | 16:00 |
| tsimonq2 | jibel: Fair enough. Are the remaining issues in the tooling or the packages that are in the PPA? | 16:02 |
| jibel | tsimonq2, just lack of time | 16:06 |
| jibel | tsimonq2, actually it should work with ubiquity, I'll try to push a build somewhere for you next week if you want to have a look | 16:07 |
| tsimonq2 | jibel: Oh, is this the one with the stacked squashfses? | 16:13 |
| tsimonq2 | If that's the case, it's a two-liner in Calamares, I just need to verify and test it. | 16:13 |
