[05:41] <didrocks> good morning
[07:29] <jibel> didrocks, morning. I still get bug 805087 with unity 4.18.0-0ubuntu1
[07:29] <ubot5> Launchpad bug 805087 in unity (Ubuntu Oneiric) "Dash and launcher appear underneath windows" [Critical,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/805087
[07:29] <jibel> I need to run unity --reset on every session start
[07:29] <jibel> otherwise I cannot use unity
[07:29] <didrocks> jibel: unity --reset won't fix this, relaunching unity seems to fix it for you (but --reset isn't needed)
[07:29] <didrocks> jibel: they are still other stacking bug known by sam
[07:30] <jibel> phew, I can's use unity for weeks now because of this
[07:30] <jibel> can't*
[07:30] <didrocks> I know, it's been more than 1 month that dx is working on stacking fixes
[07:31] <didrocks> we had one compiz supposed to fix it
[07:31] <didrocks> seems it doesn't
[07:31] <didrocks> jibel: I guess there are other stacking bugs opens against 4.20, isn't it?
[07:33] <jibel> didrocks, bug 845719 ?

[07:34] <didrocks> jibel: yeah, I'll add the unity target!
[07:34] <didrocks> thanks :)
[07:34] <htorque> didrocks: sorry, thought i tested with the default mode (is that dodge active windows?)

[08:39] <jbicha> JohnLea: is there a way we can improve bug 778289 in time for 11.10?

[09:06] <mardy> greyback: 'morning!
[09:06] <mardy> greyback: do you remember the lens activation issue, which we both fixed, though in two different ways?
[09:07] <mardy> greyback: at the end, we agreed that your solution was simpler
[09:07] <mardy> dashView.activeLens = ""
[09:07] <mardy> greyback: it seems to cause bug 858590, though

[09:08] <mardy> greyback: I think I'll revert it and propose my original solution, instead
[09:08] <mardy> greyback: but it's strange, it's not clear to me why the other solution would case that bug
[09:31] <Saviq> mardy: another issue from 858590 was that you can't unmaximize dash, is that by design?
[09:32] <Saviq> ^ bug 858590

[09:32] <mardy> Saviq: I doubt it... I think we just lag a bit behind unity-3d
[09:33] <Saviq> I _think_ it's a regression, too
[09:34] <Saviq> IIRC we had an unmaximize button
[09:40] <mardy> Saviq: I personally never saw it :-)
[09:40] <Saviq> ok then I must've mixed with U3D again :)
[10:42] <Saviq> what about https://code.launchpad.net/~saviq/unity-2d/titlebar-dblclick/+merge/76759 guys? any objections to merging it in the end?
[10:46] <greyback> Saviq: yeah I was just about to ask you. I think it's good. You fixed the style things Alberto mentioned?
[10:46] <greyback> mardy: and I'm just about to check on your grid-flow stuff again. I'd say it's worth merging
[10:47] <Saviq> greyback: ah right, that was for me, doing it now
[10:48] <greyback> Saviq: the bug with terminal size changing is only with that app, nothing else afaics
[10:48] <Saviq> greyback: yeah, and I've seen that with the terminal some time before, but couldn
[10:48] <Saviq> 't reproduce now
[10:48] <Saviq> unrelated to dblclick / drag titlebar, obviously

[10:51] <Saamm> can we have a cherry pick fix for this Bug #859885...its impossible to use unity with this annoying bug :/

[10:51] <didrocks> Saamm: what do you want to cherry-pick? it's not fixed upstream
[10:52] <Saamm> oh
[10:52] <Saviq> greyback: also, for right-click on titlebar - definitely so, separate bug, though
[10:54] <greyback> Saviq: yeah ok.
[10:54] <Saamm> didrocks, this bug has made unity launcher useless a we cannot restore windows by clicking on icons on the launcher
[10:55] <didrocks> Saamm: is it in oneiric? I can't reproduce it
[10:56] <didrocks> Saamm: I can restore the minimized window there if there is one or multiple instance of an app
[10:56] <Saamm> didrocks, oh there is a duplicate bug with a video...wait a sec I give you link to the vid
[10:56] <didrocks> this bug is different
[10:56] <didrocks> it's about the minimized window is still focused
[10:57] <didrocks> Saamm: ok, that's fine, I got you
[10:57] <didrocks> if you don't click on another window
[10:58] <Saamm> didrocks,  yes it is exactly the way you describe
[10:58] <Saviq> greyback: style fixed
[10:59] <didrocks> Saamm: I'm adding to the list of bugs to fix
[10:59] <Saamm> didrocks, oh thank you :)
[11:00] <Saviq> greyback: one more commit coming
[11:00] <didrocks> Saamm: thanks for pointing it :)

[13:38] <shibata> Hi all
[13:40] <shibata> I have a problem to use ibus in dash, bug 663776
[13:40] <ubot5> Launchpad bug 663776 in OEM Priority Project "[dash] Search field in Unity can not support iBus" [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/663776
[13:40] <didrocks> kamstrup: i'm very disappointed, you didn't translate "wallpaper in french for the keyword handling and so it doesn't work :p
[13:40] <didrocks> kamstrup: not sure to push it then ;-)
[13:41] <shibata> Its problem is not shown preedit text, detail is under comment #71.
[13:42] <kamstrup> didrocks: i didn't?
[13:42] <kamstrup> didrocks: I am using g_key_file_get_locale_string_list() to pull it out?
[13:42] <didrocks> kamstrup: I guess the translation isn't there TBH :)
[13:42]  * kamstrup checks frantically
[13:42] <shibata> I wrote code to fix, could you review it? https://code.launchpad.net/~cosmos-door/unity/fix-preedit-663776
[13:43] <nmarques> kenvandine, quick question, gwibber, if --disable-spell, libgwibber-gtk still tries to look for it, is this intended ?
[13:43] <kamstrup> didrocks: *phew* I am using g_key_file_get_locale_string_list(), so pretty sure it's a translation issue with the .desktop files
[13:44] <didrocks> kamstrup: yeah, I was mostly joking :)
[13:45] <kenvandine> nmarques, no... it isn't intended...
[13:45] <njpatel> shibata, I'm going to review it this week
[13:46] <njpatel> shibata, for this weeks release, I mean
[13:46] <njpatel> shibata, the code looks fine, but i need to test it properly, will try and do that today
[13:47] <kenvandine> njpatel, don't forget me :)
[13:47] <kenvandine> nmarques, i am planning a gwibber release today, i'll look at that before I do the release
[13:47] <shibata> njpatel: thank you!
[13:47] <kenvandine> so hopefully get it fixed today
[13:48] <nmarques> the gtkspell thingie ?
[13:49] <kenvandine> nmarques, yeah
[13:50] <shibata> njpatel: This needs any ibus-* input method to test, if you have question, feel free to ask me.
[13:51] <shibata> And one more problem in Japanese... bug 856277.
[13:52] <ubot5> Launchpad bug 856277 in unity (Ubuntu) "Lens button set narraw width which is needed" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/856277
[13:52] <shibata> I attached screenshot and patch. but I have no confidence proper solution.
[13:52] <njpatel> shibata, sure,  no worries
[13:53] <njpatel> kenvandine, I haven't, I was looking for you
[13:53] <nmarques> kenvandine, awesome, I was updating it now and the build is breaking on it (we don't have gtkspell3 yet available)
[13:53] <njpatel> kenvandine, i can't reproduce the rendering issue today
[13:53] <njpatel> :/
[13:53] <kenvandine> njpatel, well, it is a "sometimes" thing
[13:53] <njpatel> kenvandine, I know does it happen enough on your system that if I gave you a patch you could tell if it was fixed?
[13:54] <kenvandine> yes
[13:54] <njpatel> okay, give me 5mins
[13:54] <kenvandine> cool

[14:00] <njpatel> god, gwibber still takes too long to start
[14:03] <njpatel> oh, no, it's because there were three gwibber services running :)
[14:05] <njpatel> kenvandine, could you try this please http://paste.ubuntu.com/697890/
[14:05] <njpatel> i can't test my gwibber won't start :(
[14:05] <kenvandine> njpatel, will do
[14:06] <kenvandine> njpatel, don't forget the drag by toolbar fix too
[14:06] <kenvandine> i'll run with this patch for a little while and see what happens
[14:07] <njpatel> yeah, i half have that working
[14:07] <kenvandine> njpatel, you should have 3 gwibber-service processes
[14:07] <njpatel> but the toolbar doesn't give me any events, so yeah, it's a bit annoying
[14:11]  * kenvandine just noticed the features API in gwibber is completely useless
[15:16] <beevvy> Hi. I'm an app developer and I have patches specially prepared for Ubuntu to make this app more Unity and Ayatana friendly. Though, Ubuntu packages for this app are normally taken straight from Debian which can't contain that patch. What do we need to do to get those patches included in Ubuntu? File a bug against it or first find someone who will prepare the packages?
[15:18] <Zhenech> beevvy, make it work on debian properly too :)
[15:19] <beevvy> Zhenech: it's a matter of default settings
[15:20] <Zhenech> so?
[15:20] <Zhenech> make them different defaults :)
[15:20] <Zhenech> and what about ubuntu with kde and xfce? :)
[15:20] <beevvy> it's about whether to use libindicate by default or not
[15:20] <Zhenech> debian has libindicate :>
[15:21] <Zhenech> (not the latest version, but thats my fault)
[15:22] <beevvy> I can't turn that on by default instead of tray icon for Debian users
[15:22] <beevvy> it's an IM app, the same applies to Empathy, Pidgin, Kopete
[15:23] <Zhenech> yeah
[15:24] <Zhenech> i'd suggest detecting ubuntu and use different defaults
[15:24] <nmarques> beevvy, a build switch --enable-feature wouldn't help ?
[15:24] <nmarques> beevvy, so packagers can build it accordingly
=== Jens is now known as Guest54918
[15:24] <nmarques> beevvy, if they want to use libappindicator or whatever, they enable or not (a bit like transmission)
[15:25] <nmarques> beevvy, I'm just a lurker, I don't use Debian or Ubuntu
[15:25] <Zhenech> nmarques, the "problem" is: debian has libindicate, but its not installed by default, so building indicate support should be done, but not used by default
[15:26] <Zhenech> (it should be built, but not activated)

[17:57] <eitch> hi guys. I have a problem with oneiric. After updating to the latest packages unity crashes. I am left with nautilus running so i can start a terminal, but no unity panel, etc. When i start unity-2d-panel from the cli it says libGL.so.1 is not found. Does anyone know what i can do?
[18:01] <greyback> eitch: if you log out & in with Unity2D instead, does it work?
[18:02] <greyback> eitch, can run "gnome-session-quit" in terminal to log out cleanly
[18:02] <eitch> greyback, let me try unity 2d
[18:06] <eitch> hey greyback, both unity2d and 3d don't work
[18:06] <greyback> eitch: whoa. Something has gone badly wrong there.
[18:07] <greyback> eitch: have you run out of disk space?
[18:07] <eitch> greyback, yeah, looks like it. When I do a ldd unity-2d-panel then it says libGL.so.1 is not found, all the other libraries are ok
[18:08] <eitch> greyback, no, this is a clean install and i still have 9GB free
[18:10] <greyback> eitch: hmm, if libGL is missing, it must be a graphics driver gone strange
[18:10] <eitch> hmm...
[18:10] <greyback> eitch: see http://tinyurl.com/6y83cgp
[18:10] <eitch> in which package is libGL then? i can reinstall that package
[18:10] <eitch> ok
[18:11] <greyback> eitch: those are the packages with it, choose one to match your graphics card. You should have MESA at least
[18:12] <eitch> ok
[18:14] <greyback> eitch, the restricted drivers wizard can be run from terminal with "jockey-gtk"
[18:14] <eitch> greyback, yeah, reinstalling mesa-glx worked
[18:14] <eitch> greyback, thx
[18:14] <greyback> eitch: good, i'm glad.
[18:14] <eitch> i'll try and login again
[18:15] <greyback> eitch: I gotta run, bbl
