[07:59] <tomreyn> good early morning, desktop'ers. two separate users who have apparently run (unsupported) "do-release-upgrade -d" on 23.04 (to 23.10) have run into a broken character encoding issue during the upgrade: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/692134367/IMG_20231012_221459_621.jpg - there is bug 2039394 on this.

[10:45] <lissyx> seb128, I guess recovering from being sick is the best excuse to upgrade to 23.10
[10:50] <schopin> Hi there! Out of curiosity, did gnome-shell change stuff regarding keyboard input handling? I've hit this this weekend after upgrading to Mantic on my gaming rig: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/3706#issuecomment-1763345114

[11:47] <lissyx> unfortunately, GNOME 45 still gives the focus to the wrong desktop.
[11:51] <lissyx> oh noes
[11:51] <lissyx> it's fixed
[11:51] <lissyx> it's bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons-ng/+bug/1969598 now

[12:46] <lissyx> seb128, bandali FTR we might want to focus a bit on that: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1859291

[12:46] <lissyx> I dont know the root cause obviously
[12:52] <seb128> lissyx, https://people.canonical.com/~seb128/codecs.png for me
[12:52] <seb128> lissyx, is an edge regression? I'm using stable
[12:52] <lissyx> seb128, there's a bug then
[12:52] <lissyx> same on stable
[12:52] <lissyx> running on the same laptop
[12:52] <lissyx> freshly upgraded to 23.10
[12:53] <lissyx> seb128, can you run "MOZ_LOG=PlatformDecoderModule:5 snap run firefox" and collect the output?
[12:53] <seb128> might be depending of the version of intel-media-drivers or mesa cf your intel gen?
[12:53] <lissyx> AMD system

[12:58] <lissyx> nightly tar is using libavcodec 60 vs snap using libavcodec 58
[13:58] <seb128> lissyx, https://people.canonical.com/~seb128/codecs.log
[13:58] <seb128> lissyx, but perhaps it's that ffmpeg 58 works my hardware and you need a newer version on your machine?
[13:58] <seb128> I've a some years old intel i5
[13:59] <lissyx> i've been told it might also be more related to va-api versions
[14:01] <seb128> lissyx, could be...
[19:12] <bandali> hey lissyx, any comments from Mozilla (esp. Rob) about jamesh's latest replies on the native messaging portal PR? e.g. point (1) of https://github.com/flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal/pull/705#issuecomment-1686257509

[19:13] <bandali> in the mean time, i'll look into the other parts of the PR and needed changes and see about getting them done (myself and/or jamesh)
[19:23] <lissyx> bandali, sorry I'm not qualified, you should needinfo/ping rob directly
[20:07] <bandali> lissyx, ack will do, thanks :-)
