| sambagirl | are there any plans for touchscreen enhancements? | 19:18 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: best way to test touch support, is actually running the ubuntu version on it | 19:18 |
| sambagirl | i know | 19:19 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: another idea for touch, is installing unity to compare with gnome | 19:19 |
| sambagirl | well to be frank, i use mate cause i still like the old feel from the early ubuntu releases. to be even more frank, i use fusion too. | 19:19 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: unity has a pretty good touch support, but didnt test 19.04 touch support yet myself | 19:20 |
| sambagirl | i know that is a lot of collision of coding | 19:20 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: maybe you could be the first to test? help yourself, help the community? | 19:20 |
| sambagirl | i just dont like the unity environment. when they went with the new style desktops after i think 14.xx i lost it | 19:21 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: well your endgoal is getting your touch device work best right? | 19:21 |
| sambagirl | i prefer the applications places system style | 19:21 |
| sambagirl | haha yep lotuspycheje | 19:21 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: test out a few things, gnome,wayland and unity on 19.04? see for yourself if its as you need it? | 19:22 |
| sambagirl | i was just using an external monitor with touch and it has the displaylink drivers and it just isnt working properly with the latest updates. | 19:22 |
| sambagirl | ok i will get it now | 19:23 |
| sambagirl | thanks lotuspsycheje | 19:23 |
| sambagirl | btw that was compiz fusion i was referring to | 19:24 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: compiz is 16.04 and lower | 19:24 |
| sambagirl | well i am running 18.xx and it works fabulously | 19:25 |
| sambagirl | in my opinion the biggest thing that linux had other than wine is compiz fusion. | 19:26 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: show me screenshot of wobbly windows on 18.04 | 19:30 |
| sambagirl | ok i tell you what i will put some stuff up on what is it pastebin later today. i have to run out at the moment. but i don't use the wobbly windows, i use the transparant cube mostly. i never cared for the wobbly windows except in like the early versions | 19:35 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: you can make a 18.04 cube screenshot too :p | 19:35 |
| sambagirl | how do i make the shot? | 19:36 |
| lotuspsychje | prt sc button | 19:36 |
| sambagirl | i have a wireless logitech with built in mouse pad and i have to figure out where the prt sc is i dont see it listed. | 19:38 |
| sambagirl | found it | 19:38 |
| sambagirl | ok i hold external mouse down to hold the cube scenewith the ubuntu splash screen showing the version but i am not sure if i am print screening | 19:40 |
| sambagirl | i hold down ctrl-alt and the mouse button to get in position, then i hold the mouse button to hold the position | 19:41 |
| sambagirl | but then i am not sure about the print screen or even where it is going if it is capturing | 19:41 |
| lotuspsychje | pictures or /home | 19:42 |
| sambagirl | hahaha i got it | 19:44 |
| sambagirl | i dont believe you can put a pic up on pastebin | 19:45 |
| sambagirl | can you? | 19:45 |
| lotuspsychje | imgur.com | 19:45 |
| sambagirl | haha i got it | 19:46 |
| sambagirl | https://imgur.com/a/LrfWLiN | 19:47 |
| sambagirl | haha | 19:47 |
| sambagirl | see? | 19:47 |
| sambagirl | haha | 19:47 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: so your one mate 18.04 with compiz | 19:48 |
| sambagirl | yes | 19:48 |
| lotuspsychje | and thats the same touch devide youre on? | 19:48 |
| lotuspsychje | device | 19:48 |
| sambagirl | well no not at the moment. i will try it on a laptop later tonight and see the results but it was working with the external touchscreen earlier i just disconnected it | 19:49 |
| sambagirl | tell you what i will hook it back up now and see what happens | 19:50 |
| lotuspsychje | cool sambagirl | 19:50 |
| sambagirl | umm its not recognizing it at the moment. i will try it later. the drivers must have to load during initialiation. | 19:52 |
| sambagirl | i will try it on one of my touchscren laptops and see what happens. | 19:52 |
| lotuspsychje | kk | 19:53 |
| sambagirl | but you see it does work on 18.04 without any flaws | 19:53 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: on mate yeah, but probably wont work on gnome3 and wayland | 19:53 |
| sambagirl | well again i dont really care for gnome3. i remember when they came out with gnome where u had to apply widgets to the panels from some site. it was an interesting concept but not practical for on the go people.. in my opinion. and i just cant stand unity or the others they have. just me. | 19:55 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: did you test touch support on mate? | 19:56 |
| sambagirl | Seveas would konw what i meant | 19:56 |
| sambagirl | know | 19:56 |
| sambagirl | yes | 19:56 |
| sambagirl | and it's not so good. | 19:56 |
| sambagirl | it works but it's not so good | 19:56 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: wich flavor worked best? | 19:56 |
| sambagirl | whatever the default desktop from ubuntu is. | 19:57 |
| sambagirl | i am not sure if its unity or gnome3 | 19:57 |
| sambagirl | but i admit they work best but they are not what work for me. see? | 19:57 |
| lotuspsychje | on 18.04 gnome3 is default now for ubuntu-desktop | 19:57 |
| sambagirl | is that the one with the side icons and the search field at the top? | 19:58 |
| lotuspsychje | unity can still be installed | 19:58 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: ubuntu desktop 16.04 has default unity | 19:58 |
| sambagirl | then it was when they introduced unity that i lost favor with ubuntu but then i realized i could still use gnome and then mate showed up | 19:59 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: we can use more touch testers on recent ubuntu releases | 19:59 |
| sambagirl | i will give it a testing this evening. | 19:59 |
| lotuspsychje | great tnx | 19:59 |
| sambagirl | but you can see that it works in 18.04 | 20:00 |
| sambagirl | i admit it is mate not unity or gnomeX but it's still ubuntu | 20:00 |
| lotuspsychje | sambagirl: mate is based on gnome2 | 20:00 |
| sambagirl | ok | 20:00 |
| lotuspsychje | and unity is also a gnome fork so | 20:01 |
| sambagirl | i'll make a dualboot with 1904 on a dell and give it a shot and see what happens. | 20:01 |
| lotuspsychje | yeah test a few things out, interesting | 20:01 |
| sambagirl | i will try different desktops environments and i will see if i can get compiz fusion to work, cause that is mandatory :D | 20:02 |
| sambagirl | cya later lotuspsycheje | 20:02 |
| lotuspsychje | laterz | 20:02 |
| analogical | 19.04 drops tomorrow right? | 22:48 |
| Eickmeyer | analogical: Not unless a respin is warranted for whatever reason. | 22:53 |
| Eickmeyer | Er... let me rephrase that. | 22:53 |
| Eickmeyer | Unless a respin is warranted for whatever reason, the target release date is Thursday April 18th. (for me, that would be in two days). | 22:54 |
