| mmikowski | RikMills: Hello there. If you're on, I posted some thoughts on repos. It's very late here, so calling it a night. Let me know when 5.25.1 is ready for testing and we can put it through its paces. | 07:07 |
|---|---|---|
| RikMills | mmikowski: ack | 07:07 |
| mmikowski | Also, if there is anything you are particularly interested in getting tested, we can add to the automated tests or manual list. | 07:08 |
| RikMills | still sipping coffee here | 07:08 |
| mmikowski | RikMills: What is ack? | 07:08 |
| RikMills | acknowledged. common IRC dev talk | 07:09 |
| mmikowski | Ahh, yes, it's been a *long* day here. Writing a BIOS update tool. | 07:09 |
| mmikowski | Ah, yeah, I've never been much of an IRC guy. Just enough to know that Slack wasn't all that special :O | 07:09 |
| RikMills | I will think on the repo thing. it can wait however until the current plasma release gets stable enough for both of us | 07:09 |
| RikMills | unless things really drag on..... | 07:10 |
| RikMills | anyway, good night your side :) | 07:10 |
| mmikowski | ok, as I mentioned, I think we can really help with Kubuntu and KDE testing more up-front. With 20.04, it was very stable by the time we really got underway. | 07:10 |
| mmikowski | ah, it's ok for a bit :) | 07:11 |
| RikMills | I was very constrained on backports for 20.04 due to things like Qt version | 07:11 |
| mmikowski | Yeah, kind of a blessing perhaps. It was stable enough to build on. | 07:12 |
| mmikowski | 5.25.0, um, yeah. We'd like to help catch those sorts of bugs before they become support issue. It could be a virtuous cycle - we've got the interest and resources to perform regression tests, and that can feed into improving Kubntu and KDE *before* releases breaks existing systems. | 07:13 |
| mmikowski | Again, please let me know when 5.25.1 testing is around, and I'll put the team on it. We'll do the hardware test + one full desktop check. Unless there's a regression, at least with this hardware, the intel_backlight interface looks good. | 07:16 |
| mmikowski | We can upstream the nvidia_backlight fix if there's interest. | 07:16 |
| mmikowski | RikMills: We had some interesting upstream bugs last week that you probably want to upstream. I'll paste them here: | 07:17 |
| mmikowski | RikMills: er, i mean we would like to upstream. Here's the list: * The odd arrangement of the SDDM inset screen has been resolved (2430) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | * The virtual terminal fonts are now cleaner and larger (2377) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | * Slack desktop auth has been wrapped so that it works (2357) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | * Tapping the Kubuntu key now launches the startup menu (2215) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | * Kernel security updated to 5.17.0-1011 (2393) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | * Encrypted disk sign-in no longer has crowded or overwritten text (2386) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | * The GPU switcher now consistently identifies the running GPU (2352) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | * A system report mechanism is now available, kfocus-sysreport (2415) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | * Toggle USB devices on Sleep-Resume (2429) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | * Fan curves are now changed with power profiles (2419) | 07:18 |
| mmikowski | kk mate, calling it a night. Peace out. | 07:19 |
| RikMills | ok, and thanks! | 07:19 |
| BluesKaj | Hi all | 11:39 |
| RikMills | https://kde.org/announcements/plasma/5/5.25.1/ | 12:42 |
| mmikowski | RikMills: Confirmed desktop widgets getting hosed on every sign-in and repeatable with screen shots. We'll keep on eye on this and the three other issue for 5.25.1 once that's available. Is there a way to get these reports to KDE to improve the upstream? I'll give Paul Brown a bump and see if we can help that way. | 17:30 |
| RikMills | mmikowski: bugs.kde.org and also maybe contact Nate Graham | 17:31 |
| RikMills | mmikowski: I have just copied 5.25.1 to backports-landing. it will be available there shortly once the launchpad publisher catches up | 17:33 |
| RikMills | https://launchpad.net/~kubuntu-ppa/+archive/ubuntu/backports-landing/+packages | 17:33 |
| RikMills | Eickmeyer: ^^ | 17:57 |
| RikMills | 5.25.1 is also in there for kinetic, and also currently building in kinetic archive | 17:58 |
| Eickmeyer | RikMills: Ack. Seems the bug fixes I'm looking for are mentioned in the announcement. | 17:58 |
| RikMills | \o/ | 17:59 |
| RikMills | sorry, in staging-plasma for kinetic | 18:00 |
| Eickmeyer | Except, of course, the plasma crashing on global theme switching, which is an ironic bug because it's crashing when plasma is shut-down to switch the theme. | 18:00 |
| RikMills | must try to reproduce that. didn't get it when I tried last | 18:03 |
| Eickmeyer | Gotta love it when all of the amd64 launchpad builders are completely borked. | 18:32 |
| mmikowski | RikMills: Thank you! I will email you about catching up with Nate. | 20:23 |
| mmikowski | We'll also upgrade to 5.25.1. We recently rolled back our 5.25.0 systems because it is too painful. Also, no right-click to exit anymore? There goes *that* muscle memory. Ugh. | 20:24 |
| RikMills | no, that was removed :/ | 20:28 |
| mmikowski | Yeah, bummer-riffic | 20:38 |
| mmikowski | Out of 5 people who tested, 5 people complained about that. | 20:39 |
| RikMills | https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/commit/ecc938a6663ab56a501ab3e5ffa9ed55444af779 | 20:39 |
| ubottu | Commit ecc938a in plasma/plasma-workspace "Remove 'Lock' and 'logout' items from default desktop context menu" | 20:40 |
| RikMills | assuming that is what you mean | 20:40 |
| mmikowski | Yeah :( | 20:41 |
