ubottuLaunchpad bug 1874981 in syslinux (Ubuntu) "Xubuntu doesn't mention Ctrl + C to skip checking" [Undecided,New]07:21
bluesabreUnit193: is there an gir-enabled xfconf package out there somewhere?12:36
bluesabreAttempting to build and install introspection from source... since the egg has to exist before the chicken for the debian packaging :D12:43
jphilipsbluesabre: maybe you can upload the screenshots you took to the website https://xubuntu.org/screenshots/12:43
bluesabrejphilips: yeah, I'll get to that today12:43
bluesabreWe apparently forgot to for the last 4 years, so not in the biggest hurry12:44
jphilipsthanks12:44
bluesabre:)12:44
jphilipsalso the community wallpapers https://xubuntu.org/tour/12:44
jphilipsdo our system requirements need updating? https://xubuntu.org/requirements/12:45
bluesabreI think those are still technically right.12:46
bluesabreThough we should bump them for realistic recommendations12:47
bluesabreThat's a ML item most likely12:47
jphilipsmeaning that i should email the ML about what they think it should be changed to?12:48
jphilipsanyone know where the flyer file is, as i think it needs updating https://xubuntu.org/products/12:52
jphilipsshould we mention xubuntu core on the derivatives page? https://xubuntu.org/dev/derivatives/12:53
jphilipsbluesabre: in the known issues, you mentioned using another window manager for the vnc issue, but dont mention any recommendations of ones to use13:09
bluesabrejphilips: thanks, I'll add something to that as well.14:29
bluesabreI'm starting work on a POC easy-personalization dialog... https://imgur.com/sfdmbHc.png :)14:30
jphilipsnice. though you are missing icon theme under theme14:31
jphilipsmaybe change 'font size' to 'font', so both size and font face can be changed14:32
bluesabreYeah, one thing at a time. That theme option will apply the GTK/WM theme as a pair. Icon themes are separate.14:32
jphilipsdid you see the mockup someone submitted in my bug report?14:32
bluesabreDrop me a link... I think I did.14:33
jphilipswell you can assign this to you :D - https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1663314:34
ubottubugzilla.xfce.org bug 16633 in Appearance Settings "Automatically change window decoration theme when UI decorations change" [Enhancement,New]14:34
jphilipshere was the mockup https://bugzilla.xfce.org/attachment.cgi?id=973114:34
jphilipswhere can i find what is under 'effects' in the current UI14:35
bluesabreEffects doesn't have an equivalent yet. This will toggle: None - xfwm with no compositor, Slight - xfwm with compositor, Medium - compton, Full - compiz14:38
jphilipsnice. have you seen the linux mint dialog?14:42
jphilipshttps://bugzilla.xfce.org/attachment.cgi?id=955014:43
jphilipshttp://packages.linuxmint.com/pool/main/m/mintdesktop/14:43
jphilipswill this be a xubuntu exclusive?14:43
jphilipsUnit193: this person is greatful for core https://twitter.com/ryjelsum/status/125387872469443379214:47
jphilipsbluesabre: will 20.10 also ship with compton and compiz, or will those entries be disabled if they aren't installed?19:30
Unit193bluesabre: You need it all the way up the chain, so whatever deps xfconf also needs gir (libxfce4util, ui, etc)20:40
bluesabreUnit193: Yeah, I got it to work.22:10
bluesabregir doesn't work installed to /usr/local it turns out22:10
Unit193Not surprising.22:13
Unit193I should dig up my old gir patch(es).22:13
ochosibluesabre: how exactly are those scaling options going to work with X11 though? :)22:26
bluesabreochosi: the performance poor way22:27
bluesabreIf the people want hidpi, let them have it :D22:27
ochosioh right22:27
bluesabreGTK scale to 2x, X11 scale it back to 1.25x22:27
ochosiwell why not include it in the display settings dialog though22:27
bluesabreGoing to prototype doing it well in python before I try to make C bend to my will22:28
ochosi:)22:28
ochosiactually there are some display things on the 4.16 agenda, in case you wanna take a look22:29
bluesabreSure thing. Now that 20.04 is past us, I can think about Xfce again22:29
ochosi:)22:30
ochosinow we can slack again for 3 cycles - yay!22:30
Unit193Oh that reminds me.22:31
ochosiof starting to slack?22:31
Unit193No, that thing we're supposed to do after LTS releases. :322:33
bluesabreCouncil22:34
