| lotuspsychje | mknepper: wich commandline do you use? | 12:14 |
|---|---|---|
| mknepper | Hello, I'm reporting a bug in 20.04 LTS. Gnome-screenshot does not send images to the clipboard if you use the command line (gnome-screenshot -c or gnome-screenshot --clipboard) - this goes for adding a custom keyboard shortcut in the system settings as well (search for Keyboard Shortcuts in menu, open, add shortcut with options gnome-screenshot -c). | 12:15 |
| mknepper | lotuspsychje, gnome-screenshot -c or gnome-screenshot --clipboard | 12:15 |
| mknepper | Either will not send data to the clipboard | 12:15 |
| mknepper | However! if you use the GUI, it -does- work | 12:15 |
| lotuspsychje | mknepper: yeah seems like that isnt working like you say | 12:20 |
| Miles8of9 | how do you download focal fossa? it's not on ubuntu site | 12:20 |
| lotuspsychje | Miles8of9: see the topic for the daily iso | 12:20 |
| mknepper | lotuspsychje, yeah, I'm not sure why either. I don't know how to file a bug report for that either or I would | 12:20 |
| lotuspsychje | mknepper: to file a bug on ubuntu, please use ubuntu-bug packagename | 12:21 |
| mknepper | will I be able to describe the problem or will it just send data? | 12:21 |
| lotuspsychje | mknepper: both | 12:21 |
| mknepper | awesome. I'll file that now | 12:21 |
| lotuspsychje | Miles8of9: just keep in mind 20.04 is in development in this stage, breakage can still happen, for testers only | 12:22 |
| Miles8of9 | before installing 18.04 i want to test drive a bit the latest version | 12:27 |
| Miles8of9 | maybe it won't even boot | 12:27 |
| lotuspsychje | it boots | 12:28 |
| lotuspsychje | mknepper: it does copy, when you just gnome-screenshot | 12:40 |
| mknepper | it doesn't for me for some reason | 12:41 |
| lotuspsychje | without the -c ? | 12:41 |
| mknepper | yes | 12:41 |
| mknepper | I'm not seeing it my clipboard history either | 12:41 |
| mknepper | it works fine if I use the GUI | 12:41 |
| lotuspsychje | mknepper: did you tweak hotkeys or something? | 12:42 |
| mknepper | I added a hotkey for gnome-screenshot -a -c | 12:42 |
| mknepper | to screenshot an area and copy it to clipboard | 12:42 |
| mknepper | but even running just gnome-screenshot in the terminal gives me nothing | 12:42 |
| lotuspsychje | thats weird indeed | 12:42 |
| lotuspsychje | here it works, without the arguments | 12:43 |
| mknepper | i wish gnome-screenshot had a way to display stuff in verbose in the terminal | 12:43 |
| mknepper | that's really weird, shouldn't you have to specify that it copies to the clipboard? | 12:43 |
| mknepper | i thought by default gnome-screenshot just saved a .png with the timestap as the filename | 12:43 |
| mknepper | *timestamp | 12:43 |
| lotuspsychje | it does here | 12:43 |
| lotuspsychje | mknepper: can you try this on a new user please? | 12:44 |
| mknepper | yes, let me set up another user | 12:44 |
| mknepper | thats a no-go | 12:47 |
| lotuspsychje | so doesnt work either? | 12:47 |
| mknepper | no, here's a screenshot of just using 'gnome-screenshot' from the terminal | 12:48 |
| mknepper | https://imgur.com/a/eNq69kk | 12:48 |
| mknepper | and one of using 'gnome-screenshot --clipboard' | 12:48 |
| mknepper | https://imgur.com/a/ifEtD7k | 12:48 |
| mknepper | so I'm not sure what's going on. this fossa install is up to date | 12:49 |
| lotuspsychje | and they dont create a pic in your pictures folder neither? | 12:49 |
| mknepper | it does create a pic in the pictures folder | 12:49 |
| mknepper | that part works | 12:49 |
| lotuspsychje | ah | 12:49 |
| mknepper | it just doesn't copy to the clipboard from command line | 12:49 |
| lotuspsychje | just the clipboard | 12:49 |
| lotuspsychje | right ic | 12:49 |
| mknepper | yeah so weird | 12:49 |
| mknepper | and it copies to the clipboard IF you use the GUI | 12:49 |
| mknepper | so somehow the GUI works but CLI doesnt, not sure what the difference is | 12:50 |
| mknepper | maybe the gnome-devs changed something and it hasn't been updated yet, idk | 12:50 |

| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1733890 in gnome-screenshot (Ubuntu) "Copy to clipboard not working" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 12:50 |
| mknepper | my main user is set up as an adminstrator, didn't work, the tester user is a standard user, same thing | 12:51 |
| mknepper | oh, interesting | 12:51 |
| mknepper | i couldn't find that bug | 12:51 |
| mknepper | that looks a little different though | 12:51 |
| lotuspsychje | mknepper: can you try #13 paste into gmail? | 12:52 |
| mknepper | yes let me try to paste into a gmail message | 12:52 |
| mknepper | doesn't work | 12:53 |
| lotuspsychje | kk | 12:53 |
| mknepper | itd be really useful if i could get some sort of verbose output to see what's going on but Idk how to do that | 12:54 |
| lotuspsychje | journalctl -f to see logs about your system | 12:54 |
| mknepper | not seeing it in there either. some stuff covering the terminal and ffaudio-core but thats it | 12:55 |
| lotuspsychje | perhaps proceed with a new bug mknepper | 12:56 |
| mknepper | okay, running the GUI, i got something | 12:56 |
| mknepper | https://pastebin.com/PHyjUSNT | 12:57 |
| lotuspsychje | !info gnome-screenshot | 12:59 |
| ubottu | gnome-screenshot (source: gnome-screenshot): screenshot application for GNOME. In component main, is optional. Version 3.33.90-1ubuntu1 (focal), package size 52 kB, installed size 308 kB | 12:59 |
| lotuspsychje | is your version right mknepper ^ | 12:59 |
| mknepper | let me double check | 12:59 |
| mknepper | yes, 3.33.90 | 12:59 |
| mknepper | i have an idea. what if i have to specify the X display? | 13:00 |
| mknepper | gnome-screenshot --clipboard --display=default_display | 13:00 |
| mknepper | Idk how to do it, like, what i'd put in there | 13:00 |
| mknepper | but here: Jan 29 06:55:42 ubuntu dbus-daemon[1886]: [session uid=1000 pid=1886] Activating service name='org.gnome.seahorse.Application' requested by ':1.40' (uid=1000 pid=2249 comm="/usr/bin/gnome-shell " label="unconfined") | 13:00 |
| mknepper | is :1.40 the X display? | 13:00 |
| lotuspsychje | i think the display argument is just when you want to specify another then default | 13:01 |
| mknepper | hmm. | 13:02 |
| lotuspsychje | but do try | 13:02 |
| mknepper | i couldn't get it to work, but then again I don't know how to specific an X display | 13:02 |
| mknepper | Also, I pasted the wrong thing | 13:02 |
| mknepper | Jan 29 06:55:42 ubuntu dbus-daemon[1886]: [session uid=1000 pid=1886] Activating service name='org.gnome.Screenshot' requested by ':1.40' (uid=1000 pid=2249 comm="/usr/bin/gnome-shell " label="unconfined") | 13:02 |
| mknepper | that happens when you run the GUI, but nothing happens in the journalctl if you use the commandline option | 13:03 |
| mknepper | i guess I could just find another screenshot application | 13:03 |
| lotuspsychje | mknepper: try ctrl+prtscr | 13:08 |
| lotuspsychje | that works for me | 13:08 |
| mknepper | That worked | 13:12 |
| mknepper | ctrl+shift+prntscrn worked too | 13:13 |
| mknepper | strange, wonder what Ubuntu is using as the default command that makes it work vs. using the command line | 13:14 |
| lotuspsychje | mknepper: how about you proceed with the bug, let the devs fight it out? | 13:24 |
| mknepper | sounds good | 13:24 |
| mknepper | will do, ty | 13:24 |
| lotuspsychje | use ubuntu-bug ok | 13:24 |
