* tsimonq2 tries a fix for bug 200078721:55
-ubottu:#lubuntu-devel- Bug 2000787 in lubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) "Live system cannot leave 'Lock Screen' when selected from menu" [Undecided, Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/200078721:55
Eickmeyertsimonq2: If you figure it out, let me know. Ubuntu Studio (and presumably Kubuntu) is affected by a similar issue with the newest Plasma.22:06
wxlcrazy idea: what if we used a non-null password, say same as the user ID?22:10
Eickmeyerwxl: That's the problem: it is non-null.22:10
tsimonq2Eickmeyer: If you think you have an idea, I'll hold off. I'll throw you some interesting-looking code.22:10
wxlhuh, i thought it was blank?22:10
tsimonq2Yeah, it *is* blank. Eickmeyer has it backwards ;)22:10
EickmeyerIt's null-hashed.22:10
* tsimonq2 thinks?22:11
Eickmeyerxscreensaver (and Plasma) sees it as a hashed password of "".22:11
wxlright. so that's what i'm saying. we use an actual password.22:11
EickmeyerI think that would require modifying casper?22:11
tsimonq2Eickmeyer: That stupidly-long Telegram message I just sent you has relevant code that should already fix this for KDE, but could very well be ancient.22:12
tsimonq2I already have a local fix for the screensaver issue, I'm less interested in changing password behavior to be non-standard without consulting with Foundations first (see: advice and consent)22:12
EickmeyerYeah, that obviously doesn't work anymore. Probably KDE 4 related, and definitely doesn't work.22:13
wxl"I noticed that the live Lunar Ubuntu Desktop (standard Ubuntu) arrives at a page that prompts to enter user name and password, in other words, there is not longer a standard user with a blank password."22:13
wxl^ sounds like password behavior has already changed?22:13
tsimonq2Eickmeyer: If you give me some code before I go for beer in an hour, I'll include it in my upload :P22:14
tsimonq2Re: password behavior itself, no idea.22:14
tsimonq2I am inclined to agree that we should address the root cause, not the symptom... that being said the fix I have is pretty easy. Two rm lines, removing the xscreensaver autostart and the Lock Screen menu entry from the live session.22:15
tsimonq2So, the only issue I'm really seeing with that solution is Suspend shows a somewhat interesting error about, well, having no lock screen. :P22:16
tsimonq2In a perfect world filled with unicorns and rainbows, we'd suppress that message too.22:16
tsimonq2wxl: As always, you play a pretty good Devil's Advocate, so let me hear it XD22:17
Eickmeyertsimonq2: There's no way I can do that, sadly. The only thing I can think of is to change the defaults in ubuntustudio-live-settings to inject a default to disable the lock screen, but I think I'm done for the week.22:19
lubot[telegram] <tsimonq2> I'll have a beer for you ;)22:20
lubot[telegram] <teward001> you still owe me a case :P (re @tsimonq2: I'll have a beer for you ;))22:30
lubot[telegram] <tsimonq2> does a keg work? :P (re @teward001: you still owe me a case :P)22:30
lubot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> Imagine bringing a keg on the airplane to Riga.22:31
lubot[telegram] <tsimonq2> I wouldn't bring it on the plane, but customs would sure look at me weird. :P22:31
lubot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> "What's that?" "Imported beer." 👀22:31
lubot[telegram] <tsimonq2> "Imported from where?!?" "From my backyard 😎"22:34
lubot[telegram] <teward001> hah22:34
tsimonq2@arraybolt3: Question for you... where did you keep that prototype of the new Lubuntu.me?22:39
lubot[matrix] <arraybolt3> 😬22:40
tsimonq2@arraybolt3: I know you can't see it anymore but we've been swearing at WP for about the past week ;)22:40
lubot[matrix] <arraybolt3> I don't think I still have it...22:40
tsimonq2No worries, if you could try to find it I'd be grateful, if you only have the mockups or anything, that'd be cool too22:40
tsimonq2I know, I asked a little late, that's my bad :)22:40
lubot[matrix] <arraybolt3> I remember it was just a Nikola site with Cosmo theme from https://bootswatch.com/ installed, then I used HTML for the pages and BootStrap4 to position elements.22:41
tsimonq2Sweet. Thanks! (And a re-creation would be totally amazing too ;) ;) )22:43
lubot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> @tsimonq2 I've got code for you which I'll be pushing to casper as a MR. Identical to Kubuntu's code except s/kubuntu-default-settings/ubuntustudio (and tested) but in the changelog, should I be piggybacking on your bug 2000787?23:09

lubot[telegram] <tsimonq2> do you even lift bro?23:54
lubot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> Correct, path has no dash. It's actually s/kubuntu-default-settings/ubuntustudio. ubuntustudio all one word, for legacy reasons. One of my predecessors thought it should be one word. (re @tsimonq2: Path haz no dash?)23:56

lubot[telegram] <Eickmeyer> Do you own a 70-lb husky? Those things will pull you. How do you fix that? You pull back. Do I lift? I don't need to lift, I own a husky. (re @tsimonq2: do you even lift bro?)23:58
lubot[telegram] <tsimonq2> Nah, but I have a 100 lb Great Dane 😎 (re @Eickmeyer: Do you own a 70-lb husky? Those things will pull you. How do you fix that? You pull back. Do I lift? I don't need to lift, I own a husky.)23:59
