guiverc22.04.1 QA - i just noticed I can select partitions using the graphical.partition layout at the top - Wow !!   (hopefully reduce the risk of my re-installs overwriting my real/wanted install on that box)01:42
Eickmeyer[m]arraybolt3, Leo K : Thanks for testing Ubuntu Studio! And spot-on with calamares-settings-ubuntu being the culpret, although it's really calamares the culpret here, but there's not much we can do about that. I left a comment in the bug report (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/jammy/+source/calamares-settings-ubuntu/+bug/1984136/comments/6) , but I need confirmation that this issue is in Kinetic as well (per my testing it is). 03:08
ubot93Launchpad bug 1984136 in calamares-settings-ubuntu (Ubuntu Jammy) "Ubuntu Studio still asks for a password upon bootup even when autologin is selected during installation" [Medium, Triaged]03:08
Eickmeyer[m]Basically, calamares is hard-coded to point to an sddm config that KDE doesn't without a patch, which isn't my call to patch, and patching calamares in this context would mess-up Lubuntu.03:10
Eickmeyer[m]It can probably be fixed by making a symlink, but I have to be absolutely sure that this exists in Kinetic.03:12
arraybolt3[m]I will test Kinetic shortly.03:14
arraybolt3[m]Eickmeyer: ^03:14
Eickmeyer[m]arraybolt3[m]: Thanks03:14
arraybolt3[m]Eickmeyer: Also, a couple of ideas for your:03:21
arraybolt3[m]1: Why not implement this as a shellprocess module rather than a symlink? That would be more versatile and possibly much safer.03:21
arraybolt3[m]2: KaOS uses Calamares and KDE, maybe we can look at how they handle this edge case (if they allow autologin at all)?03:21
arraybolt3[m]s/your/you/03:21
Eickmeyer[m]arraybolt3: They're using pkgconfig03:21
Eickmeyer[m]And yes, any solution I use would be a shellprocess module, either writing a symlink or rewriting the displaymanager module altogether to get it to point to the right place.03:22
Eickmeyer[m](shellprocess@fix_audio_perms is mine)03:23
arraybolt3[m]Eickmeyer: Confirmed, the autologin issue exists on Ubuntu Studio Kinetic.04:12
arraybolt3[m](Adding to bug report...)04:13
arraybolt3[m]OK, bug report modified.04:14
Eickmeyer[m]arraybolt3: Thanks, I'll figure out where to go from here.04:15
Eickmeyer[m]arraybolt3: Thing with KaOS is they can patch their KDE, I can't.04:16
arraybolt3[m]Ah, I didn't know they were patching KDE. Yikes.04:16
arraybolt3[m](I mean, we patch stuff, so not yikes like "oh that's a bad idea for them to do", I guess I retract that.)04:16
Eickmeyer[m]Well, not that they are just that they can.04:17
arraybolt3[m]Oh.04:17
Eickmeyer[m]And no, it's not necessarily a bad thing. There's a lot of things that upstreams do that's not necessarily a good idea. It happens.04:18
