[06:39] <TJ-> any known issues on 20.04 with vlc 'stuck' in the notification area and refuses to quit? this is when it shows --started-from-file x/y/z.mp4 in the process list. If opening several video files ends up with multiple vlc icons there. What is weird is the vlc window can be shown/hidden BUT vlc's media>quit option doesn't work - nothing changes. The window-manager's Close option does re-hide the
[06:40] <TJ-> window but the process doesn't terminate
[14:49] <nanotube> howdy Unit193 :) could you check my message in #xfce-dev, and tell me what you think?
[17:26] <Unit193> nanotube: I don't really know, I looked to see if anyting was mapped that'd conflict witht F9, but doesn't seem to be.  I'd have to install it to check more.
[22:09] <nanotube> Unit193: ok, thanks for checking it out. i guess i'll file a bug with xfce and see what they say. 
[22:10] <Unit193> Maybe I'll try to install it.
[22:15] <Unit193> nanotube: Yeah I really can't help you, this thing segfaults on me when I try to launch it.
[22:18] <Unit193> Ah, unset GDK_CORE_DEVICE_EVENTS  was the issue.
[22:19] <Unit193> nanotube: F9 works for me. :3
[22:20] <Unit193> nanotube: grep F9 ~/.config/xfce4 /etc/xdg/xdg*/xfce4/ -R
[23:45] <nanotube> Unit193: this is on a fresh xubuntu install, with no keyboard shortcut tweaks on the F* keys... 
[23:46] <Unit193> I am not on a fresh Xubuntu install, so would have to rely on you for the results of that grep. :3
[23:46] <Unit193> nanotube: Can you give a specific testcase for me to try with the expected result?
[23:47] <nanotube> fresh xubuntu, install gromit-mpx, start gromit-mpx, (hit ok on the first-start dialog), then hit 'f9' and try drawing on screen. expected: you draw on screen. my observation: nothing happens.
[23:48] <Unit193> OK, so I can say I didn't reproduce that error with my setup. \o/
[23:48] <nanotube> hm, interesting. for me none of the F keys work, but if i start gromit-mpx with --key <letter> it works ok using that key.
[23:49] <nanotube> if i paste the output of that grep F9 command, would you take a look and see if anyhting looks extra?
[23:57] <Unit193> Sure, though I'd expect it to differ in general.
