| BillGHero | Is this the right place for problems that appear to be Gnome/GDM related? | 02:19 |
|---|---|---|
| duflu | BillGHero, yes it is | 02:34 |
| duflu | But most of the team is in other timezones | 02:34 |
| BillGHero | Does that mean I should try at a different time? | 02:44 |
| jamesh | BillGHero: maybe explain your problem. If we can help, then great. | 02:46 |
| BillGHero | Ok. And thanks in advance. | 02:48 |
| BillGHero | I have a Ubunt 18.04 clean isntall. Worked fine for a couple weeks. Now GDM will not present the GUI login screen. | 02:49 |
| duflu | BillGHero, can you please create a bug report by running 'ubuntu-bug gdm3' ? | 02:50 |
| duflu | We'll need to use that to collect info about your system and figure it out | 02:51 |
| jamesh | BillGHero: what's the output of "systemctl status gdm3" (you can copy the output to https://paste.ubuntu.com/) | 02:51 |
| BillGHero | jamesh, sure thing https://pastebin.com/29thHK5r | 02:53 |
| duflu | BillGHero, please create a bug report with 'ubuntu-bug gdm3' | 02:54 |
| BillGHero | duflu, working on it. Can't send it by web browser right now so... | 02:54 |
| BillGHero | * haven't used scp before :) | 02:56 |
| BillGHero | * actually, let me see if I can pastebin it. It is long... | 02:57 |
| BillGHero | duflu Bug-report: https://pastebin.com/ve4AMfJc | 02:58 |
| duflu | BillGHero, that should have created a bug on launchpad. If not then please create it manually here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+filebug | 02:59 |
| jamesh | BillGHero: if you've got another machine with working gui, I think you can copy the .apport file over and then run "ubuntu-bug apport.gdm3.c6t5_xkc.apport" | 03:01 |
| jamesh | that should start the bug report process | 03:01 |
| BillGHero | jamesh, Ok I have started the bug report. | 03:08 |
| BillGHero | jamesh, how detailed should I make the 'Further Information' block? | 03:12 |
| jamesh | BillGHero: if you remember anything changing on the system between when GDM worked and when it stopped working, include that. | 03:13 |
| BillGHero | Ok. It is submitted. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm3/+bug/1777378 | 03:15 |
| ubot5 | Ubuntu bug 1777378 in gdm3 (Ubuntu) "GDM no longer presents GUI login Ubuntu 18.04" [Undecided,New] | 03:15 |
| BillGHero | Hopefully running ubuntu-bug on a different machine won't cloud the submitted files any. ;) | 03:15 |
| jamesh | The info in the bug looks like it matches the .apport file you pasted earlier | 03:17 |
| duflu | BillGHero, please dont run that command on a different machine | 03:17 |
| jamesh | duflu: he was doing it using the .apport file generated on the problem machine | 03:18 |
| duflu | otp... | 03:18 |
| BillGHero | otp? | 03:19 |
| duflu | on the phone | 03:25 |
| duflu | Still on the phone but see the bug report... | 03:29 |
| BillGHero | duflu, if you are the one asking for the apport-collect, it is waiting for a browser window to open. It is waiting in vein as there is no GUI available right now (the whole reason for my seeking help). | 04:09 |
| BillGHero | Is there any other method to accomplish this under the circumstances? | 04:09 |
| BillGHero | I am attempting the fix from #5 | 04:11 |
| BillGHero | duflu, Is there any command I should run after changeing custom.conf, prior to reboot? | 04:27 |
| duflu | BillGHero, it's fine the run the command on the affected machine, then copy and paste the link onto another | 04:31 |
| duflu | BillGHero, no just reboot | 04:31 |
| BillGHero | duflu, apport files are now on bug page. | 04:40 |
| duflu | BillGHero, thanks. Please respond in the bug, where there are more questions | 04:43 |
| BillGHero | duflu, performed the manual downgrade from #12. Also ran an update with apport. There is also an observation relating to the GDM3 service. posted in case it helps. | 05:27 |
| duflu | BillGHero, I know, thanks. Answering now | 05:27 |
| jibel | Good morning | 05:52 |
| duflu | Morning jibel | 05:54 |
| jibel | Hi duflu | 05:54 |
| jibel | duflu, so we finally figured out what was broken on uefi systems. | 05:55 |
| jibel | s/was/is/ | 05:55 |
| duflu | jibel, I think I saw, but I don't understand. Glad you do | 05:55 |
| jibel | duflu, it's a change in the dependencies and a package that configures grub and the efi partition is missing. | 05:56 |
| jibel | but it is not as simple a just readding the dep apparently because it must not be installed on cloud images afaiu | 05:57 |
| duflu | Real bugs are never simple :) | 06:00 |
| duflu | Back in a bit | 06:07 |
| Nafallo | orning | 06:21 |
| Nafallo | morning | 06:21 |
| BillGHero | Morning. And goodnite. ;) | 06:22 |
| didrocks | good morning | 06:37 |
| duflu | Morning didrocks | 06:58 |
| === pstolowski|afk is now known as pstolowski | ||
| didrocks | hey duflu | 07:15 |
| jibel | Salut didrocks | 07:33 |
| didrocks | salut jibel | 07:34 |
| willcooke | morning | 07:56 |
| willcooke | jibel, how long did it take to have your meter fitted? | 07:56 |
| duflu | Morning willcooke | 07:57 |
| didrocks | hey willcooke | 07:57 |
| seb128 | good morning desktopers | 08:00 |
| duflu | Morning seb128 | 08:01 |
| Laney | what's up | 08:01 |
| seb128 | hey duflu, Laney, how are you? | 08:01 |
| didrocks | hey Laney | 08:01 |
| duflu | seb128, surprisingly busy. One of those days where everyone replies at once. You? | 08:01 |
| seb128 | haha, getting code reviews? ;) | 08:02 |
| duflu | seb128, that and bug reporters and family... | 08:02 |
| seb128 | I'm not great yet, but maybe that come once coffee kicks in? w.e was good but I had a few work things in mind when I stopped on friday that I didn't manage to fully put aside and didn't relax as much as I wanted due to that :/ | 08:03 |
| duflu | seb128, me too. I was actually wishing I had a longer weekend in order to get some work done before Monday | 08:03 |
| didrocks | seb128: try to disconnect your brain more ;) | 08:04 |
| Laney | hey seb128 didrocks duflu | 08:16 |
| Laney | seb128: good, went back for a family party & saw the kids | 08:17 |
| Laney | tired last night though, was in bed very early :-) | 08:17 |
| Laney | don't know how you parents do it | 08:17 |
| didrocks | not great when kid wake up multiple times a night :p | 08:18 |
| seb128 | yeah, I don't know how we do it either | 08:20 |
| seb128 | w.e was fun but exhausting, I had 2 or 3 small things I wanted to do/look at for me this week, didn't manage to do any of those | 08:20 |
| seb128 | the kid doesn't like to play alone, he's always asking for us | 08:21 |
| seb128 | we were also invited to another kid birthday's party on saturday, in a place for kids with lot of floor big cushions, balls, etc, you can let them go around safely, that was fun | 08:22 |
| seb128 | and I got a "lunch on a pancakes boat" as a gift yesterday | 08:23 |
| seb128 | that was nice/fun as well, but lot of kids around so noisy :/ | 08:23 |
| duflu | Hi Laney | 08:27 |
| duflu | A pancakes boat sounds very Dutch | 08:31 |
| seb128 | heh | 08:47 |
| seb128 | didrocks, g-c-c SRU made it to -updates if you want to follow up with what you had queued | 09:03 |
| didrocks | seb128: excellent! Will do, thanks :) | 09:05 |
| seb128 | thank you! | 09:05 |
| Nafallo | hrm. I think I've got another bug now that I finally picked up a dock for my XPS13. | 10:28 |
| Nafallo | seem Terminator is static on both screens, even when I've got Firefox selected on the second one. | 10:28 |
| Nafallo | hmm. no. it's worse. | 10:29 |
| Nafallo | the program that was last selected on the primary display is the one that show up at the top left on both screens... whatever I have on the second screen seems like it's getting ignored. | 10:30 |
| Trevinho | hi guyz | 10:33 |
| Nafallo | hey Trevinho :-) | 10:33 |
| Trevinho | hi Nafallo | 10:33 |
| Trevinho | Laney: hey | 10:33 |
| Laney | hi Trevinho | 10:39 |
| Laney | how's it going? | 10:39 |
| Trevinho | good | 10:39 |
| Trevinho | you? | 10:39 |
| Laney | yah i'm good | 10:41 |
| Trevinho | Laney: I've pushed the branches in https://code.launchpad.net/~3v1n0/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+git/gnome-shell branches, now the one is marked as ubuntu/master actually should be like ubuntu/bionic-3.28.2-sru once that is finalized (or like ubunt/bionic) while in the master-next there's a full merge with debian too for cosmic. Good thing is that I've fully kept our history in the /debian/* (as I wanted to do for others) | 10:41 |
| Laney | got some sweets | 10:41 |
| Trevinho | good :) | 10:41 |
| Laney | umm | 10:42 |
| Trevinho | while https://code.launchpad.net/~3v1n0/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+git/gnome-shell/+merge/348099 is the change for the SRU | 10:42 |
| Laney | i'll have to take a look at those to see what you did | 10:42 |
| Trevinho | I've to finish adding patches to the SRU though | 10:43 |
| Trevinho | Laney: and ah, yeah, I've also to update some debian settings and dbp stuff, that's just a merge of content for now. but the rest is easy | 10:44 |
| Laney | Trevinho: can you just make there be ubuntu/master and ubuntu/bionic please? this is confusing to me | 10:50 |
| Nafallo | so... when I verify an SRU, should I change both verfification-needed and verification-needed-bionic or just the bionic one? | 10:51 |
| Trevinho | Laney: in master and bionic you want what we've currently in lp:~dt...? | 10:53 |
| Trevinho | or the updated one? | 10:53 |
| Laney | what is this subtree thing? | 10:53 |
| Laney | Trevinho: you can add a tag for the current versions then it's easy to see the diff | 10:54 |
| Laney | If it's OK I can just push those tags to the branches | 10:54 |
| Laney | the next commit after that could be fixing up the debian/ stuff for git | 10:55 |
| Trevinho | Laney: basically you merge two branches with unrelated histories, under a prefix.. | 10:55 |
| Laney | Nafallo: you can change v-needed if there's no other releases to verify | 10:55 |
| Laney | Trevinho: are you doing something complicated :/ | 10:55 |
| Nafallo | Laney: cheers, fixing. | 10:55 |
| Trevinho | Laney: no, not really.. I just hate to trash logs | 10:55 |
| Trevinho | it's just few commands, but at least you keep everything around | 10:56 |
| Laney | like I see Debian's history | 10:56 |
| Laney | and then something to do with importing a subtree | 10:56 |
| Trevinho | you should see both | 10:56 |
| Laney | then a commit from oSoMoN | 10:56 |
| Trevinho | that's depending on the visualizer | 10:56 |
| Laney | and then some merge thing | 10:56 |
| Trevinho | use a git graph view | 10:56 |
| Trevinho | gitg for example or something that shows things per branches and time | 10:57 |
| Laney | it's a bit annoying to go away and invent a new way of dealing with things on your own on the side | 10:57 |
| Trevinho | Laney: to be fair the best way to do it would have been checkout at where ubuntu and debian forked, merge the debian salsa there, and then pull the remaining stuff from ubuntu, but that would be a bit time consuming | 10:58 |
| Trevinho | that was just what I proposed since the beginning. there's really nothing different from just merging. And I'd actually would love to fix also what has been already moved to git | 10:59 |
| Trevinho | i could also do things in the inversed way in case, so start from salsa and then merge there ubuntu if you prefer, there's no really difference on that, just want to preserve history there. | 11:03 |
| Trevinho | in any case we can't just use current salsa as base... Well I've done that too, but it's quite different and seb said to do the sync with debian later only for cosmic | 11:11 |
| Trevinho | (and that's what ubuntu/mastern-next is about) | 11:11 |
| Laney | if others don't need to know about the subtree things I think it's good, you get better history there | 11:12 |
| Laney | and you can fix the others if you can do it without rebasing if you want | 11:12 |
| Laney | for converting other things, find the last fork point and merge in from there to make it look like what we have in Ubuntu now | 11:13 |
| Laney | then we can merge back in from salsa to do the next update | 11:14 |
| Trevinho | yeah, that was what I though to do too as written, I'd just need to merge the ubuntu things earlier, shouldnt' be much different | 11:14 |
| Laney | you need to write this down if you want other people to do the same | 11:15 |
| Trevinho | I've written in the hub, time ago... Not the commands though | 11:16 |
| Laney | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/git this page | 11:16 |
| Trevinho | which I hope I just I didn't just get them lost with the last reboot -_- | 11:16 |
| Trevinho | but, yeah | 11:16 |
| Laney | I would usually merge the debian tags rather than the branch | 11:21 |
| Laney | unless we want something unreleased | 11:21 |
| Trevinho | yes, sure | 11:21 |
| Laney | alright | 11:22 |
| Laney | k let me know again when it's updated once more | 11:23 |
| Trevinho | ok | 11:23 |
| Laney | need to go stare at my VM some more | 11:23 |
| Laney | thx! | 11:23 |
| Trevinho | after lunch | 11:23 |
| seb128 | Trevinho, hey, did you see the review comment from Seth on the fprintd MIR? he's asking about the "dbus-policy-without-send-destination" lintian warning, would be nice if you could have a look/respond there | 13:18 |
