Feb 01 04:02:19 <jpr> welcome to the opensuse GNOME meetin!
Feb 01 04:02:22 <jpr> meeting even
Feb 01 04:02:42 <sreeves> jpr is from the south
Feb 01 04:02:57 <jpr> not much else to introduce this week :-)
Feb 01 04:03:17 * jpr has changed the topic to: Meeting in Progress - Meeting shift policy review proposal | http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME | Help at: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing | Next Meeting: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Meetings/20080131 | Congratulations, Federico!
Feb 01 04:03:27 <jpr> captain_magnus, srag : anything to propose?
Feb 01 04:03:33 <jpr> or dliang
Feb 01 04:03:42 <jpr> or anyone else in australia/asia
Feb 01 04:04:05 <captain_magnus> We are proposing this time: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?day=24&month=01&year=2008&hour=11&min=0&sec=0&p1=0
Feb 01 04:04:17 <captain_magnus> That would move the meeting back one hour...
Feb 01 04:04:40 <jpr> right
Feb 01 04:04:54 <jpr> it rules out Provo people
Feb 01 04:05:02 * jimmac_ has quit ("Ex-Chat")
Feb 01 04:05:09 <dliang> one hour back?
Feb 01 04:05:19 <jpr> yes, unfortunately
Feb 01 04:05:25 <jpr> but maybe thats ok once a month
Feb 01 04:05:47 <jpr> +1 from me
Feb 01 04:06:06 <dliang> 7:00 PM in Beijing is OK, +1
Feb 01 04:06:22 <rodrigo> for europe it works great, so +1 from me
Feb 01 04:06:52 <captain_magnus> +1 to trial this for perhaps 2 meetings
Feb 01 04:07:27 <sreeves> jpr: I should probably know this but why does that rule out Provo people ?
Feb 01 04:07:42 <jpr> sreeves: welll, i assumed 4am was pushing it too much :-)
Feb 01 04:07:45 <jpr> ok
Feb 01 04:07:59 <jpr> AI: captain_magnus to schedule next two time shift meetings at new time
Feb 01 04:08:05 * jpr has changed the topic to: Meeting in ProgressFactory testing (news, issues, concerns) (sreeves, maw, hpj) | http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME | Help at: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing | Next Meeting: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Meetings/20080131 | Congratulations, Federico!
Feb 01 04:08:07 <captain_magnus> Hmm... It's my 4am now and I'm here... Where is the dedication from the provo people? :-)
Feb 01 04:08:12 * sreeves misread - I thought back one hour from normal
Feb 01 04:08:17 <sreeves> dudh
Feb 01 04:08:33 <jpr> sreeves, mw, hpj ?
Feb 01 04:09:22 <hpj> hmmm
Feb 01 04:09:26 <sreeves> so I just have questions about the upgrade this week
Feb 01 04:09:28 <hpj> wouldn't that put it at 5am here?
Feb 01 04:09:46 <sreeves> tried the update last night and still got the CC problem
Feb 01 04:09:58 <hpj> nm
Feb 01 04:10:05 <sreeves> jpr: will that be synced soon
Feb 01 04:10:22 <rodrigo> sreeves: the dep on libgnomekbd?
Feb 01 04:10:23 <sreeves> and is there a way to check status of a factory sync
Feb 01 04:10:29 <sreeves> rodrigo: yes
Feb 01 04:11:09 <captain_magnus> sreeves: There's no easy way to check factory sync...
Feb 01 04:11:10 <jpr> darix: ^^ >
Feb 01 04:11:38 <hpj> i'm actually a little behind on my factory updates
Feb 01 04:11:59 <jpr> its been a couple days since there were updates on x86_64 at least
Feb 01 04:12:28 <jpr> if darix doesn't respond soon i'll take and AI to check with the autobuild team and mail the list
Feb 01 04:12:48 <hpj> how are the dependency problems coming?
Feb 01 04:12:50 <jpr> the zypper at least lets you work around the problems these days
Feb 01 04:12:52 <hpj> banshee et al
Feb 01 04:13:01 <jpr> banshee and CC2 are fixed internall
Feb 01 04:13:09 <hpj> ok
Feb 01 04:13:47 <jpr> hpj, mw, sreeves : anything else to add?
Feb 01 04:13:55 <sreeves> nope
Feb 01 04:14:06 <rodrigo> can I just ask who is running factory now?
Feb 01 04:14:13 <hpj> no
Feb 01 04:14:19 <captain_magnus> I am running it on my laptop
Feb 01 04:14:19 <jpr> me
Feb 01 04:14:28 <hpj> mde
Feb 01 04:14:29 <hpj> me
Feb 01 04:14:30 <jpr> (one machine)
Feb 01 04:14:50 <jpr> also, just a reminder http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing
Feb 01 04:15:10 <rodrigo> that makes 5 machines (captain, jpr, hpj, and 2 from me), so we really need more people to test stuff
Feb 01 04:15:37 <jpr> for all those lurkers like ChrisJaeger bgerber hircus ivanz pocek Juippis etc :-)
Feb 01 04:15:57 <rodrigo> :)
Feb 01 04:16:07 <hpj> ideally, testers would run GNOME, of course... :)
Feb 01 04:16:12 <ChrisJaeger> :-D Running it on a laptop, everythings's fine.
Feb 01 04:16:23 <hircus> :) I don't have an openSUSE machine at the moment, I'm afraid. disk space limitations
Feb 01 04:16:27 <ivanz> once I buy more RAM I will install factory for testing
Feb 01 04:16:34 <jpr> AI: jpr check autobuild sync status
Feb 01 04:17:00 <jpr> ok
Feb 01 04:17:02 * jpr has changed the topic to: Meeting in Progress - Task Review (suseRocks) | http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME | Help at: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing | Next Meeting: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Meetings/20080131 | Congratulations, Federico!
Feb 01 04:17:12 <jpr> suseROCKs appears to be out atm
Feb 01 04:17:20 <rodrigo> he said he was going to miss the meeting
Feb 01 04:17:27 <jpr> so quickly, anyone have anything they want bring up task wise?
Feb 01 04:17:38 <jpr> I have finally gotten the tshirt/swag stuff moving again
Feb 01 04:17:56 <jpr> will wait one more day for snail mail addresses from a couple of people
Feb 01 04:18:07 <jpr> and send to Martin L.
Feb 01 04:18:17 <btimothy> i've contacted the BYU CS Dept. abt. hosting an event/speaking there to promote openSUSE/GNOME and get student participants. Waiting now for the real person in charge to talk w/ me.
Feb 01 04:18:26 <rodrigo> I'd like some help on the kiwi/distro testing thing
Feb 01 04:18:33 <captain_magnus> rodrigo: I can help out...
Feb 01 04:18:43 <rodrigo> there are kiwi images done from factory, but nothing planned for testing
Feb 01 04:18:47 <rodrigo> captain_magnus: good
Feb 01 04:18:52 <jpr> and the pattern review will happen within a couple of weeks after we review the drops and such on the mailing list
Feb 01 04:19:04 <rodrigo> we need to think how we could do automated tests, ltsp?
Feb 01 04:19:10 <jpr> rodrigo: ah yes, we have space issues and i told coolo we would look at them
Feb 01 04:19:23 <jpr> rodrigo: if you get it building perhaps we can review that pattern first?
Feb 01 04:19:30 <jpr> nagappan: ^^
Feb 01 04:19:54 <nagappan> hi jpr
Feb 01 04:19:56 <rodrigo> captain_magnus: add yourself to the task then please
Feb 01 04:20:10 <jpr> nagappan: see above ltsp question :-)
Feb 01 04:20:12 <captain_magnus> rodrigo: Will do... Have you done anything with it yet?
Feb 01 04:20:21 <jpr> mw: you'll talk to dirk about the next packaging day?
Feb 01 04:20:22 <rodrigo> captain_magnus: no :(
Feb 01 04:20:46 <captain_magnus> rodrigo: Ok... I'll set something up here and then create a wiki page... Should be able to do that over the weekend
Feb 01 04:20:51 * jpr notes the multimedia themed meeting is done
Feb 01 04:21:02 <rodrigo> captain_magnus: great
Feb 01 04:22:05 <jpr> anything else to raise on tasks?
Feb 01 04:22:06 <bgerber> ok
Feb 01 04:22:10 <nagappan> jpr, LTSP or LDTP ? I could see rodrigo kiwi image
Feb 01 04:22:24 <captain_magnus> nagappan: LDTP
Feb 01 04:22:24 <jpr> ldtp i think he meant
Feb 01 04:22:29 <rodrigo> yeah
Feb 01 04:22:41 <nagappan> captain_magnus, I could not trace it out, could you please paste for me ?
Feb 01 04:23:19 <captain_magnus> nagappan: We were discussing possibilities to automate GNOME testing with ldtp
Feb 01 04:23:20 * jpr has changed the topic to: Meeting in Progress - [10 mins] Q&A - Non Developer | http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME | Help at: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing | Next Meeting: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Meetings/20080131 | Congratulations, Federico!

Feb 01 04:24:14 <jpr> including exciting 11.0 questions
Feb 01 04:24:15 <mw> ok
Feb 01 04:24:25 <nagappan> jpr, captain_magnus, I can help in all possible ways in setting up the environment for automated testing
Feb 01 04:24:33 <ivanz> I've got no questions :)
Feb 01 04:24:44 <rodrigo> nagappan, captain_magnus: good, let's continue talking after the meeting
Feb 01 04:24:47 <captain_magnus> Any news on public fate?
Feb 01 04:24:58 <nagappan> rodrigo, sure :)
Feb 01 04:25:11 <jpr> captain_magnus: i have seen no change in status
Feb 01 04:25:22 <jpr> but thats a good one to take to the project meeting or ask AJ about
Feb 01 04:25:30 <jpr> AI: jpr find out the status of openfate
Feb 01 04:26:39 <jpr> any other questions today?
Feb 01 04:26:56 * jpr has changed the topic to: Meeting in Progress - Next Theme Meeting| http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME | Help at: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing | Next Meeting: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Meetings/20080131 | Congratulations, Federico!

Feb 01 04:27:18 <jpr> multimedia went really well
Feb 01 04:27:20 * federico1 (n=federico@189.129.81.194) has joined #opensuse-gnome
Feb 01 04:27:26 <rodrigo> yeah
Feb 01 04:27:36 <rodrigo> there was a list of suggested topics... /me looks
Feb 01 04:29:18 <rodrigo> opensync, multiscreen, and wishlist are the ones left
Feb 01 04:29:23 <rodrigo> http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Meetings/Themes
Feb 01 04:29:50 <jpr> we already had the mobile team
Feb 01 04:29:58 <jpr> a couple of times
Feb 01 04:30:08 <jpr> i wonder what other teams we could have come
Feb 01 04:30:10 <jpr> yast?
Feb 01 04:30:15 <rodrigo> X and yast
Feb 01 04:30:16 <jpr> X on radeonhd?
Feb 01 04:30:21 <jpr> kernel?
Feb 01 04:30:47 <rodrigo> a11y also
Feb 01 04:30:55 <rodrigo> although not sure who to bring :-)
Feb 01 04:31:07 <jpr> other ideas?
Feb 01 04:31:35 <jpr> +1 for X (like to here about xrandr 1.3 and hotplugging monitors and such too)
Feb 01 04:31:36 <captain_magnus> federico1's sleep pattern?
Feb 01 04:31:38 <hpj> build service?
Feb 01 04:31:45 <hpj> zypper?
Feb 01 04:31:51 <jpr> ooh
Feb 01 04:31:54 <jpr> both good as well
Feb 01 04:32:02 * rodrigo adds them to the themes page
Feb 01 04:32:16 <federico1> captain_magnus: pattern!? babies seem to be totally non-deterministic
Feb 01 04:32:28 <nagappan> federico1, :)
Feb 01 04:32:30 <captain_magnus> federico1: Heh... Congratulations :-)
Feb 01 04:32:40 <hpj> i would expect federico1's baby to be NP complete
Feb 01 04:32:50 <jpr> any votes for the next particular meeting?
Feb 01 04:33:02 <captain_magnus> +1 for X and randr...
Feb 01 04:33:13 <dliang> +1 for a11y

Feb 01 04:33:36 <hpj> +1 for build service
Feb 01 04:33:39 <rodrigo> +1 for build service
Feb 01 04:33:54 <captain_magnus> -1 for build service :-)
Feb 01 04:34:06 <hpj> i'm fine with X too
Feb 01 04:34:22 <rodrigo> yeah, +1 for X also :)
Feb 01 04:34:42 <jpr> ok X next
Feb 01 04:34:45 <jpr> then build service
Feb 01 04:35:03 <jpr> AI: jpr to ask henne and the X team to attend
Feb 01 04:35:05 * jpr has changed the topic to: Meeting in Progress - 10.3 Update (sreeves) | http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME | Help at: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing | Next Meeting: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Meetings/20080131 | Congratulations, Federico!
Feb 01 04:35:06 <cyberorg> there were recent improvement in compiz and xgl "Better RANDR support" from david's changelog
Feb 01 04:35:09 <jpr> sreeves: go man go
Feb 01 04:35:27 <sreeves> so we are pushing the updates from testing repo out
Feb 01 04:35:35 <sreeves> except the metacity fix
Feb 01 04:35:59 <sreeves> should be available from the update channel as soon as they work through the release process
Feb 01 04:36:16 <sreeves> were a little worried about the lack of testing on the metacity fix
Feb 01 04:36:35 <captain_magnus> What does it fix?
Feb 01 04:36:38 <sreeves> since it was added later on and we did not get many comments on it - and it changes desktop behavior slighty
Feb 01 04:36:41 <jpr> sreeves: did we receive a swamp id ?
Feb 01 04:36:47 <sreeves> jpr: yes
Feb 01 04:36:54 <jpr> great
Feb 01 04:37:16 <jpr> mw: which reminds me, did we get the id for the xulrunner update ?
Feb 01 04:37:17 <sreeves> so if a couple people could test out the metacity fix and comment on the bug that would be helpful
Feb 01 04:37:22 <hpj> is there awareness of the X crashing in VMWare bug?
Feb 01 04:37:30 <hpj> which popped up in 10.3 after previous updates
Feb 01 04:37:31 <sreeves> captain_magnus: it's a focus stealing prevention fix
Feb 01 04:37:48 <hpj> https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=350318
Feb 01 04:37:51 <bugbot> openSUSE bug 350318 in openSUSE 10.3 (GNOME) "GDM/X crashes in VMWare" [Major,New]
Feb 01 04:37:55 <bgerber> no questions here
Feb 01 04:38:23 <sreeves> hpj: btimothy just hit it this morning - I told him to add his vote to that bug to back rev the workaround to 10.3
Feb 01 04:38:27 * mhwork|gone is now known as mhutch
Feb 01 04:38:36 <sreeves> hpj: was there any action on the upstream real fix for that ?
Feb 01 04:38:37 <hpj> ok
Feb 01 04:38:54 <hpj> yeah, disable RENDER. :(
Feb 01 04:39:02 <hpj> for the vmware driver
Feb 01 04:39:18 * kallepersson has quit ("Lämnar")
Feb 01 04:39:32 <hpj> oh the real fix
Feb 01 04:39:33 <jpr> hpj: can we make it clear in there is not related to the control center but rather an X bug?
Feb 01 04:39:34 <hpj> no
Feb 01 04:39:41 <hpj> it's been quiet upstream
Feb 01 04:39:57 <hpj> jpr: yeah, i just got confirmation that it is indeed the X bug today
Feb 01 04:40:03 <jpr> ok
Feb 01 04:40:13 <jpr> we also have an FF crashing on update bug
Feb 01 04:40:16 <jpr> we need to look at
Feb 01 04:40:21 <jpr> started with the new version
Feb 01 04:40:30 <jpr> maybe related to the icon theme stuff
Feb 01 04:40:44 <jpr> maybe federico1 you can poke that next week with mw
Feb 01 04:41:23 <jpr> sreeves: anything else?
Feb 01 04:41:29 <sreeves> thats it
Feb 01 04:41:45 <jpr> https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=355402
Feb 01 04:41:48 <jpr> federico1: ^^
Feb 01 04:41:48 <bugbot> openSUSE bug 355402 in openSUSE 10.3 (GNOME) "SuSEconfig.gtk2 kills processes" [Major,New]
Feb 01 04:42:16 <federico1> looking
Feb 01 04:42:27 <jpr> sreeves: i think that might fall into the embarassing bucket :-)
Feb 01 04:42:38 <jpr> although i think it only started for me after the recent FF update
Feb 01 04:42:51 * jpr has changed the topic to: Meeting in Progress - 11.0 Development Update (hpj) | http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME | Help at: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing | Next Meeting: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Meetings/20080131 | Congratulations, Federico!
Feb 01 04:42:55 <jpr> hpj: go man go
Feb 01 04:43:13 <hpj> ok, so we held back the GDM update for another week
Feb 01 04:43:16 <hpj> that is, until the end of this week
Feb 01 04:43:28 <hpj> since it was missing critical functionality
Feb 01 04:43:38 <hpj> i'm going to try again tomorrow or monday
Feb 01 04:43:55 <federico1> jpr: hmm, weird - just asked for more info
Feb 01 04:44:07 <jpr> federico1: i can replicate, try it
Feb 01 04:44:25 <hpj> they just sent out and update to the GDM upstream list saying they implemented reboot/shutdown :)
Feb 01 04:44:34 <hpj> and XDMCP
Feb 01 04:44:41 <hpj> so it's in better shape
Feb 01 04:44:43 <jpr> right, all policykit-ized nicely now though
Feb 01 04:44:44 <federico1> jpr: plain 10.3?
Feb 01 04:44:58 <hpj> although you still can't choose language and keyboard
Feb 01 04:44:59 <jpr> federico1: 10.3+updates at least - after the meeting please
Feb 01 04:45:03 <federico1> k
Feb 01 04:45:06 <hpj> probably not session type either
Feb 01 04:45:07 <captain_magnus> Is it possible to disable the animation thing when you click on your username?
Feb 01 04:45:21 <hpj> captain_magnus: you can bet i'm disabling that
Feb 01 04:45:33 <hpj> captain_magnus: i've talked to them upstream and they seem to like it :/
Feb 01 04:45:38 <hpj> captain_magnus: so it'll be an openSUSE patch
Feb 01 04:45:43 <captain_magnus> Thanks! :-)
Feb 01 04:46:37 <hpj> anyone else have 11.0 dev movement to report?
Feb 01 04:46:43 <jpr> i have published a listed of some potential package drops on the mailing list
Feb 01 04:46:46 <jpr> please review
Feb 01 04:47:04 <hpj> that list looked fine to me
Feb 01 04:47:11 <hpj> although i think gqview is fairly popular
Feb 01 04:47:15 <jpr> yah
Feb 01 04:47:18 <jpr> two comments back
Feb 01 04:47:27 <jpr> hpj: the a11y stuff looked sensible as well?
Feb 01 04:48:11 <hpj> jpr: i think so
Feb 01 04:48:45 <jpr> hpj, sreeves : oh, what about the new xgl setup stuff
Feb 01 04:48:49 <jpr> since cyberorg is here
Feb 01 04:49:18 <hpj> not much to report there yet
Feb 01 04:49:27 <jpr> ok
Feb 01 04:49:37 <jpr> cyberorg: its on our minds again finally :-)
Feb 01 04:49:48 * jpr has changed the topic to: Meeting in Progress - Patch Upstreaming (rodrigo) | http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME | Help at: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/11.0/Testing | Next Meeting: http://en.opensuse.org/GNOME/Meetings/20080131 | Congratulations, Federico!
Feb 01 04:49:55 <jpr> rodrigo: you're up
Feb 01 04:50:06 <cyberorg> jpr, cool :)
Feb 01 04:50:16 <rodrigo> not much to report, since we postponed it because of the 2.21.5 update in FACTORY
Feb 01 04:50:29 <rodrigo> so next Monday and Tuesday, we'll do it
Feb 01 04:50:45 <rodrigo> I'll add more information to the wiki page before then
Feb 01 04:50:58 <rodrigo> but with the update to 2.21.x, we had to disable some patches
Feb 01 04:51:12 <rodrigo> so anyone can help in reviewing those patches and reworking them as needed
Feb 01 04:51:45 <rodrigo> so, who wants to give a try at patch reviewing/tagging/upstreaming?
Feb 01 04:51:55 <rodrigo> oh, tagging is also very easy to do
Feb 01 04:51:59 <jpr> if you can simply help filing bugs and patches upstream that would be a big help too :-)
Feb 01 04:52:10 <rodrigo> so anyone can do it, no need to be the maintainer of the packages
