bluesabre | Unit193: thanks. Are you able to test ayatana things? Working on https://github.com/Xubuntu/lightdm-gtk-greeter/issues/74, but making either indicator backend optional at build-time. | 10:23 |
---|---|---|
ubot93 | Issue 74 in Xubuntu/lightdm-gtk-greeter "Support Ayatana Indicators" [Open] | 10:23 |
Unit193 | bluesabre: I can absolutely try to build it of course, but last time I tried running with either I couldn't get a indicator to show up. | 11:28 |
bluesabre | Unit193: cool, I'll ping you when I have something to test :) | 11:29 |
Unit193 | Got any pointers on making indicators show up? Will we be using the Ayatana or other backend? | 11:34 |
Unit193 | If it's a configure switch rather than just auto detection, we can add both and make an ifdef Ubuntu thing, thus syncing the package still. \o/ | 11:35 |
bluesabre | Unit193: https://github.com/Xubuntu/lightdm-gtk-greeter/commit/9c50d93d3c52623183e3562ed3f033533a672fbc - Supports both backends, prefers ayatana, if ayatana libraries aren't present it falls back to unity, can be overridden with configure flag `--with-libindicator=ayatana|unity` | 15:00 |
bluesabre | (at build time) | 15:01 |
bluesabre | For making indicators show up... it's been a while :D | 15:02 |
bluesabre | Looks like it's just the indicator name, without any extras, so messages is `messages`: | 15:05 |
bluesabre | $ cat /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf | 15:05 |
bluesabre | [greeter] | 15:05 |
bluesabre | indicators = ~host;~spacer;~session;~language;~a11y;~clock;~power;messages | 15:05 |
bluesabre | Unit193: so, I'm not able to get indicators of either type to load... and I think it might be because the greeter has a hard dependency on upstart for starting the indicators :o | 19:08 |
jphilips | bluesabre: reminder about these https://github.com/Xubuntu/xubuntu-default-settings/pulls | 19:37 |
bluesabre | Unit193: seems like its been broken for a while :\ | 20:00 |
ochosi | bluesabre: if the greeter isnt used as lockscreen thats probably less of a problem though | 20:08 |
misko_ | Hey devs and devils | 20:27 |
misko_ | I've settled for a window instead of GtkPopover | 20:28 |
misko_ | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82bCIkLWsd0 | 20:28 |
misko_ | Popover needs a window to display | 20:29 |
misko_ | and menu is ussualy too small | 20:29 |
misko_ | imean panel is too small | 20:29 |
ochosi | misko_: i think i | 20:35 |
ochosi | 've never seen this plugin before | 20:35 |
ochosi | so it's supposed to be a shortcut for certain xfdesktop settings? | 20:35 |
misko_ | Yes | 20:36 |
ochosi | a-ha | 20:36 |
misko_ | https://github.com/Misko-2083/desktop-icons-applet | 20:36 |
ochosi | generally speaking this made me think that i could add an entry for desktop settings to the "show desktop" plugin | 20:37 |
misko_ | uses libxfconf-0 | 20:37 |
ochosi | that comes with the panel (depending on whether xfdesktop-settings is found in path) | 20:37 |
ochosi | but i think i don | 20:38 |
ochosi | 't personally buy into exposing those other settings | 20:38 |
ochosi | but that's just me :) | 20:38 |
misko_ | One setting to "hide desktop" in the "show desktop" plugin would be nice :) | 20:44 |
misko_ | ochosi have you seen a jgmenu xfce panel plugin? | 20:45 |
ochosi | hide desktop? | 20:49 |
ochosi | what does that mean? | 20:50 |
ochosi | no, what's jgmenu? | 20:50 |
misko_ | jgmenu is a X11 menu that uses cairo and pango written by Johan Malm | 20:52 |
misko_ | no gtk or qt whatsoever | 20:52 |
ochosi | what would i use it for? | 20:53 |
misko_ | I've written a plugin that sets some TINT2 variables that jgmenu reads and positions itself next to the panel button | 20:54 |
ochosi | or: what's the selling point over using gtkmenu? | 20:54 |
misko_ | https://youtu.be/rsK-H7seyJw?t=49 | 20:54 |
misko_ | Sorry about the video slow VM | 20:54 |
misko_ | jgmenu can also read from stdin | 20:55 |
ochosi | no worries about the slow vm | 20:57 |
ochosi | i maybe still don't get what sets this apart from other menus - is it that you have some layouting things you can trigger with the "templating"? | 20:58 |
misko_ | Well it's designed for scripting, ricing and tweaking. | 21:03 |

Unit193 | bluesabre: That's how it worked for me too, glad I'm not the only one. Should I still try that? | 23:05 |
Unit193 | enable_indicator_services_command="upstart --user --startup-event indicator-services-start" ah, right. | 23:08 |
