Work with OEM people for NM related issues 15:39 eof 15:39 thanks happyaron 15:39 #topic hikiko 15:39 hello 15:39 - working on this nasty bug in multimonitor: if we have two outputs o1 and o2, when the rendering is done in o2 and the components of o2 are scaled, some parts of the o1 appear in both outputs (eg o1's panel appears without artifacts in o1 but a part of it reappears scaled in o2). This indicates that there's either a problem in our 2D clipping (parts of o1 that should be clipped still appear and follow the o2 transformations) or that for some 15:39 reason we render in all outputs when we should only render in one. (what happens at the end is that compiz renders things per output but nux renders things in the whole screen). 15:39 - fixes in ezoom damage, +added signals to damage components only when there's a change in zoom transform 15:39 - a fix in expo, scale branch (merged by marco) 15:39 - a brief look at the vm issues - tasks 15:39 EOF 15:40 thanks hikiko 15:40 #topic Laney 15:40 hi 15:40 • Got PagerDuty working for appstream monitoring, now I get called, texted and emailed when it stops updating! 15:40 • Send upstream fixes to move the 'show-weekdate' setting to a new key in gsettings-desktop-schemas 15:40 • A few updates/SRUs: glib, glib-networking gvfs 15:40 • Fix to gnome-calendar goa activation 15:40 • Start working on gtk 3.20 theme changes, going to be a few days worth of work there at least 15:40 • Help with reviewing/tweaking job description for new hires 15:40 𝇛 15:40 thanks Laney 15:41 #topic qengho 15:41 * Finished with chromium 50.0.2661.102.
