oSoMoNhey duflu :)06:37
didrocksgood morning07:00
jibelBonjour à tous07:02
dufluMorning didrocks and jibel07:03
oSoMoNsalut didrocks & jibel07:04
didrockshey jibel, duflu, oSoMoN07:08
pieqHi everyone07:58
didrockssalut pieq07:59
pieqI installed focal this morning on a testing laptop and I noticed the install process UX has changed a little08:00
jibelpieq, bonjour08:01
pieqand the option to encrypt the partition is hidden now... so by default, if the user clicks Next, the system is installed without any kind of disk encryption08:01
jibelpieq, the partitioning page?08:01
pieqit's alreayd like this in 18.04, but the option to encrypt is visible from the screen, so I figure it's more "findable" by users08:01
jibelpieq, yes, it's on purpose and it's one of the concerrn that have been raised with this change08:01
pieqjibel, the page where you're asked if you want to "Erase disk and install Ubuntu"08:01
pieqOK08:01
pieqI reckon there are many different installation scenarios for users08:02
pieqbut for someone installing Ubuntu on a laptop without any other partitions, it makes sense to have the disk encryption option available "easily" (if not by default)08:02
jibelpieq, we probably need to move back everything from a advanced dialog to the main page but then it adds lot of data to the page especially when you have a system already installed08:04
pieqjibel, yes, that's the kind of tricky thing. I was testing on a laptop that had no dual boot or weird stuff08:05
pieqI could spend more time investigating this, but I don't have much time now08:05
seb128gooood morning desktopers! happy friday08:16
didrockshappy Friday seb12808:29
seb128lut didrocks, happy friday! how are you?08:29
dufluMorning seb128. How goes?08:31
seb128hey duflu, okish, I've a cold/I'm coughing for a few days seems a bit worth today, I feel a bit like if I had fever with my skin by sensitive08:32
seb128I'm going to try to get it easy, hopefully I'm feeling better to fly to CapeTown tomorrow08:33
duflu:(08:33
seb128during my previous trip there I had over 39°C fever and that was no fun at all08:33
seb128hopefully not a second time08:33
seb128duflu, how is it going for you?08:33
seb128ready for the we? :)08:34
dufluseb128, going OK though gnome-shell is always more complex than you think...08:34
dufluThe weekend will come when I'm ready08:34
didrocksseb128: I’m fine, thanks, and you?08:40
seb128didrocks, cf backlog :)08:41
didrocksgood luck! :)08:57
WimpressMorning o/09:01
WimpressSorry to hear you feeling under the weather seb128 :-(09:02
seb128hey Wimpress! how are you?09:02
seb128Wimpress, I wil take it easy today, hopefully I feel better by tomorrow09:02
Wimpressseb128: Yes, best to rest up.09:02
WimpressAll good here.09:03
Laneymorning09:03
seb128hey Laney, how are you?09:03
Laneyyeah I'm alright09:03
Wimpressduflu: I noticed the CSD windows and non-CSD window have a different size window shadow.09:04
Laneyare you allergic to Cape Town seb128?09:04
dufluMorning Wimpress and Laney09:04
WimpressA curiosity that caught me out while making screenshots for the sideshow last night.09:04
seb128Laney, I might be?09:04
WimpressDo you know why this might be duflu?09:05
dufluWimpress, interesting. Though I have argued for a long time that CSD should get server side shadows, I think I lost that argument. That means it is expected -- different code rendering it09:05
dufluYou would need to modify all toolkits to match your theme09:05
WimpressYeah. I can't see why the inconsistency would be required, from a technical point of view.09:05
dufluWhich code exactly I don't know09:06
dufluThis is partly why I argued for years we shouldn't be in this situation09:06
WimpressI wrote a script to resize, cature and scale windows at exactly the right sizes for including in the installer slideshow.09:07
dufluI feel shadows should not be seen as part of the window, but an artefact of the desktop09:07
WimpressThat difference between CSD and non-CSD had me scratching my head for a few minutes, until a realised what was going on.09:07
Laneymoin duflu09:07
seb128brb, going back to my desk now09:11
didrocksgood morning Wimpress !09:16
dufluWimpress, hopefully you're only talking about non-Gnome apps. We should be able to make Gnome ones consistent between CSD (Xwayland) and SSD (Xorg)09:19
dufluI mean CSD (Wayland)09:20
WimpressYeah, I notice the difference with Shotwell, Firefox and LibreOffice.09:25
dufluWimpress, if apps are running via X11, including Xwayland, then we have fairly central control over the shadow rendering09:37
WimpressI am running on X11.09:38
dufluAnd if you configure them to use system titlebars etc, not app-level CSD09:38
WimpressWhen you say configure, you mean a programmatic change to not use CSD?09:40
dufluYes, like it's a setting in Chrome09:40
WimpressRight.09:40
dufluMaybe it is in Firefox?09:40
WimpressIt is. But bugs.09:40
WimpressCurved window corners grow ears.09:40
seb128the arm builders seem unhappy, between that and ffi I think I just give up for this week and see if things automagically sort out during the w.e09:46
seb128also wth with i386 failing to install build-essential:amd64 :/09:47
dufluWimpress, I'm already confusing myself so if you encounter the problem in release please remember to open a bug09:48
oSoMoNWimpress, is this bug #1828728 (for firefox) ?09:49
ubot5bug 1828728 in Mozilla Firefox "White corners when CSD is enabled on Firefox under X11" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/182872809:49
dufluYes I think that's it09:51
Wimpressdidrocks: I've prepared a branch for ubiquity-slideshow that implements the new Yaru design and updates screenshots for 20.04.11:49
WimpressI've proposed for merging, but not update debian/changelog. Should I?11:50
didrocksWimpress: yes. feel free to update the changelog (but keep it UNRELEASED instead of focal'12:02
WimpressOK12:45

hellsworthoSoMoN: there's a chromium snap question in #snapcraft that maybe you know the answer to: "Hi, I had the cromium snap on my other computer. I reinstalled all my programms on a new computer. I'm trying to get my bookmarks and settings to the chromium on my new computer. Befor snap it was something like .config/chromium or .local/share/chromium (can't remeber exatcly).
