[Bug 1766137] Re: [regression] Password accepted but login fails (blank purple screen and mouse pointer only)

[OliFre]

Since it's still in proposed and a day is mostly over (and Europe is
asleep again) - could somebody outline / point me to the conditions for
a package to be moved from proposed to released?

This would be good to know to understand what is missing (and
potentially help?) instead of entering a lengthy discussion here, with
almost a 100 affected people and hence spamming lots of subscribers.

[Bug 1775955] [NEW] I get an "Unable to install "IDEA Community": forbidden" error even though clicking the install button initiated the download and installation sucessfully

[Seija Kijin]

Public bug reported:

When I attempted to install "IDEA Community," gnome-software gave me an
error saying "Unable to install 'IDEA Community': forbidden," and then
less than a second later, I was prompted for my password, and upon
entering it in, the installation started without issue.

The problem is that the error occurred even though the download and
installation happened successfully WITHOUT my having to click on the
"install" button again, so this is a false error.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch GNOME Software Center
2. Click on IDEA Community
3. Click on the Install button
4. Notice that a "forbidden" error is raised and then you are prompted for a 
password. Enter the password and find that the installation proceeds without 
issue.

Expected Results:
Installation begins without any "Unable to install" messages

Actual Results:
"forbidden" error appears even though an authentication window appeared, and 
entering the password correctly initiated the download and installation.

Whenever I boot Ubuntu following installation from the official install
ISO, the boot screen appears, but the login manager appears as static,

installing lightdm and switching to that login manager.

Expected Results:
Login manager appears with login field, background, and menu while I am able to 
find, click, and enter information into the login text fields.

Actual Results:
Scrambled noise appeared on my screen and I am unable to leave without

I'm affected by this bug. I independently discovered the disable "Use

only when I changed over to an AMD RX580 that the flickering started.

On Ubuntu 16.04.03 LTS I just went from using Unity to Gnome. With some
back and forth with lightdm vs. gdm and the screen lock issues I got
things working more or less until I stumbled over what probably are the
ripples of this old bug (and I couldn't agree more with Nikolay and his
comment).

I had two keyboard layouts running with Unity, and as everybody seems to
have, I used Alt-Shift to switch layouts, just like on my Windows
laptop. And like almost everyone else, I of course have Alt-Shift-Tab
set for cycling backwards through windows (after jumping through all
sorts of hoops to tell the window manager not to group windows of the
same app...).

I reported my issue at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786257
which obviously was the wrong place. And now I found this bug here.

I haven't taken the time to understand all the details, so I apologize
for the outside perspective. Yet, I am of the opinion that it should be
possible to define shortcuts such that they trigger their event only
upon release, not upon press, because as noted by everyone else here it
makes it impossible to define "release" shortcuts that are "prefixes" of
other shortcuts, and this is a severe limitation that becomes highly
practically relevant for the usual keyboard layout switching shortcut
that just so happens to be a prefix of the usual window backwards
switching shortcut.

There have been much worse backward incompatibilities in Linux. And
while I hate seeing things break by such changes, here my very personal
view is that should this really present a problem that cannot be solved
in a backward-compatible way (e.g., by letting users distinguish between
"release" and "press" shortcut definitions) then so be it. What is this
compared to deprecating X11, then xorg and at some point also
Wayland...?

[Bug 36812]

[Wettstae]

> - Can you describe a bit how you imagine the changes to xkeyboard-config
>   would look with this approach?
We would need changes wherever we want the new behaviour.  I would prefer to 
create new options for group switching, rather than modifying existing options. 
 Comments #117 and #118 show examples.  Basically, I imagine we use explicit 
action specifications.  However, unless as shown in the examples, with changes 
to xkbcomp, one could write 'LockMods' with an 'group' option, rather than 
using the cryptic 'Private' actions.

> - Do you think this can be done in a backwards compatible way? As far as

Certainly, an old library or application would get parse errors when it 
encountered the new options in textual form.

If xkeyboard-config adds new options rather than modifying old ones,
users could just keep using the old options until they upgraded the
library/application.  If the library/application parses only used stuff,
that would circument transitional compatibility issues.  For an old
xkbcomp with a new xkeyboard-config, I believe that would work.

As I far as remember, xkbcommon intentionally does not support
'Private'; otherwise, using it could help during the transition.

> X has more compatibility concerns,
Yes.  Peter's main concern was that some tools might create binary forms of a 
layout where the two bytes that now get a meaning are not zero, but set to some 
random values (zero is fine, as it will have no effect in the new 
interpretation).  His idea was to bump the protocol version, but that is beyond 
my capabilities, so I gave up at this point.  Anyway, current xkbcomp puts the 
bytes to zero, so the combination of an old xkbcomp with new X-server would be 
no problem, ever without the precaution of a protocol version bump.

> BTW: xkbcommon already supports noLock/noUnlock in LockMods (unlike xkbcomp),

With my proposal, xkbcomp should be touched anyway, and this is just one of 
three occasions where I unsuccessfully tried to get noLock/noUnlock supported 
in xkbcomp.

And the layout switching - does it occur when you press Ctrl+s? Could

[Bug 36812]

[kolya]

Dear xorg developers. This is an old bug. In fact this is a 13 years old bug. 
And it has been at least 7 years since this bug had a patch to fix it.
Yes, existing patch breaks specification. But one would seem that the fact that 
patch existed for 7 years and was applied by default by popular distributions 
without users` complains would suggest that existing patch is a practical 
solution to the problem despite breaking theoretical (and as discussed here - 
not well thought through) specification.
There is now once more spike of activity here - probably because Ubuntu 17.04 
was released recently which dropped this patch because it was not compatible 
with newer xorg. kyak has provided an updated patch, but it would take a lot of 
time for distributions to pick it up and then circle would repeat with next 
xorg version.

Yes, there has been a few heated discussions around this patch and XKB
specification. And yes, specifications are important, but this is really
annoying problem for people with more than one keyboard layout. Annoying
to the point of making xorg really unusable for some groups of people.
So is there any chance to get more practical with this bug?

For example, kyak's patch has a function 'xkbSwitchGroupOnRelease' that
is a stub to make new behaviour controllable by configuration. Would
xorg maintainers find this patch acceptable to upstream if that function
read value from some environment variable and only turned new behaviour
on if it was set?

I feel like it would allow XKB spec to stay and also would allow users
affected by this problem to solve it without recompiling xorg - which
average user would struggle to do.

Looking forward to your reply.
Thanks!

[Ran Benita]

Thanks Andreas, I had missed this in the previous discussion.

First, I must say it's a very clever hack :)

I have not looked at it deeply yet, but I have some initial questions:

- Can you describe a bit how you imagine the changes to xkeyboard-config
would look with this approach?

- Do you think this can be done in a backwards compatible way? As far as
xkbcommon is concerned, I am only interested in this scenario: old
library (unaware of the new LockMods options) & new keymap (in textual
form, modified with the new flags).

X has more compatibility concerns,
xkbcomp/client/server/libxkbfile/protocol/Xlib/etc, but allow me to
ignore that for now.

BTW: xkbcommon already supports noLock/noUnlock in LockMods (unlike
xkbcomp), based on your work[1]. So I hope the approach does not rely on
these not already working :)

[Bug 36812]

[Ran Benita]

Nikolay,

First, background: I am not a xorg developer, but I develop the XKB
library used by most Wayland compositors (xkbcommon). The behavior there
is the same.

IMO it is worth having a discussion about the behavior. A nice thing
about XKB is that it has a specification. It is easier to discuss
behavioral changes against a spec than hard-to-understand X code, or 150
comments bugs. Therefore, my proposal for you (or anyone else who is
interested in changing the behavior) is to provide a patch against the
spec. Even if the actual spec will never change, I still think that a
clear proposal, which also considers possible side effects, is the first
step forward here.

The current spec and the most relevant section is here:
https://www.x.org/releases/current/doc/kbproto/xkbproto.html#Key_Actions

The current source for the above spec is in the kbproto repository here:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/kbproto/tree/specs/ch06.xml?id=kbproto-1.0.7#n586

No, I am only talking about myself, as a developer of xkbcommon; as I
said, I am not a xorg developer so I cannot speak for that. I do not
really mind if the spec is actually changed or not, what I am interested
in is:

1. A clear and precise description of the proposed change.
2. A serious consideration of how other parts of the spec may be affected by 
the change.

You know how you want it to behave, so just write it down in the form a
patch against the spec. Then we can discuss further, with the goal of
reaching a solution in xkbcommon, at least. Let me know if you (or
anyone else who wants to do it) need any help.

[Bug 1775845] [NEW] gdm3 does not start on fresh 18.04 installation

[calcatinge]

Public bug reported:

I did a fresh 18.04 install on an fairly old HP USFF desktop with Intel
Core2 Duo E7200, 4GB RAM DDR2 , but I could not boot, as the systems
hangs right before the GDM start. The keyboard and mouse are not working
as the "busy" hdd LED is running. After a couple of minutes like this,
the system shuts itself down. I am writing this from a newly Debian 9.4
installation, as the 18.04 was not usable at all...

As far as I know, XKB2 was never released, not even as a draft.

[Bug 36812]

[Norbert]

Just tested simple idea on Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS with MATE DE.
Out-the-box it has Xorg 1.18.4 which perfectly allow user to set for example 
 keyboard shortcut for keyboard layout switching.
But when I install HWE on 16.04 LTS I get newer Xorg 1.19.5.

Debian 8 (Xorg 1.16.4) and 9 (Xorg 1.19.2) have this problem too (see
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=891915 ).

So versions 1.16.4, 1.19.2 and 1.19.5 should be patched to bring
 keyboard shortcut functionality back.

Here's what I think we would need to do in order to not break old clients:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg-devel/2013-January/035049.html

Another, probably better, way to do it would be to define a new flag
like XkbSA_HasGroupFlags inside the XkbModAction flags field when
group_flags and group_XXX are valid rather than potentially garbage.
That would avoid the whole version-negotiation nightmare, as nothing
appears to be too picky about extra flags being defined.

Five years later, it would also be good to have support inside
libxkbcommon (which has a pretty decent test suite) and xcb-proto for
the flags.

- download patch attached to this issue named "The same patch, but based on 
1.19.1 (fixed)" into directory /etc/portage/patches/x11-base/xorg-server/
- run `emerge xorg-server` to reinstall Xorg with this patch applied
- restart X to enjoy working hotkeys :)

If users of other Linux distributions have issues with this - probably
they just didn't use "newer Linux".

With all respect to you... Why do you want to close well described bug
moreover that it has good proposed solution? This issue affects multiple
users using multiple keyboard layouts and merging available patch
probably won't cause any problems to the rest of people that does not
use layout switchig.

I could to say, that this patch does not work exactly as expected. See,

What exactly "newer Linux" is supposed to mean? I'm using yesterday's
updated Gentoo Linux with xorg-server-1.19.5 and Fluxbox - is it counts
as "newer"? Or by "newer Linux" you mean something like "modern KDE
only"?

There is a patch, working good enough for years without creating any new
(practical) issues. In comment #161 is was proposed to make it
configurable option to make everyone happy and let users choose between
using compliant protocol or working hotkeys.

I use both Windows and Linux. BTW Many people don't have a choise of the
OS on their jobs.

I may provide a patch that would make it available to switch the
behaviour in the runtime (I guess a line in xorg.conf would be fine). So
we don't break the standard, people don't need to recompile xorg every
time and patch developers don't need to adapt the patch.

Yes, I was thinking about it before you answered. I tested RCtrl+RShift
combination, and it has no conflicts with hotkeys. There are possibility
of XKeyboard-config, I used it before a keyboard layout:
caps_switch_latch. It works when capslock pushed, but not released. I
just thinking, I am in a black room. But it cannot do anything with
hotkeys. I think, that problem is a miner-like. X-windows have messages
keypress and release, but in my opinion, it should be adopt all windows
manager. I will read the according X11 header files first, I promiss.
After that I come back again, could we step to an easy way or not.

I understand, that you must switch between Russian and English layout.
The programs uses latin-based hotkeys, I did understand. In my opinion,
in the future would be change, if the translator projects "translate"
the hotkeys, for example to cyrillyc letters, too. (then won't need
switches between layouts so frequently) We (Hungarians) will run into
that problems on the future, when we will want to write old Hungarian
texts. This is a runic-like right-to-left script. My question is, do you
use Windows yet, or you uses already only Linux? You can choose switcher
combination closely positioned with ctrl and shift. If you buy a new
laptop, it could be happen, that the keyboard metrics not exactly same
as on previous one.

The question is not, largely speaking, about whether there is any
shortcut available. The question is largely specifically about shortcuts
such as Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift, which due to this bug will interfere
with other shortcuts and applications. Users such as myself are
accustomed to using these shortcuts, and they should be expected to
work.

This has nothing to do with KDE, but lack of functionality of xkb.

There is universal key sequence to switch layout which is common to most
operating systems, once this sequence is selected, functionality is
lost.

Comment#161 summaries the options to actually solve the issue, until
resolved people should be able to land here to apply the patch which I
use for 10 years.

[Ztirfe Elgnid]

With all due respect, I hope this is not the usual response to X bugs. I
do not think it is unreasonable to ask that shortcuts be made available
from the set of control keys, since this is a very widespread feature
across operating systems. I have used Kubuntu for the past several
years, and made use of the alt-shift key combination to toggle between
the English and Greek keyboard layouts. After the recent KDE change I
find this bug affecting my workflow, interrupting various keyboard
combinations involving the use of those modifiers. I think it is
appropriate to call this a bug in xkb's behaviour.

I wholeheartedly understand that X developers are more thinly stretched
than most, and that this bug—despite its labeled importance—does not
have as extreme a disruptive impact as many other bugs. I have no desire
to complain of the amount of time this bug has spent open and demand
that it be fixed. I would however request that this bug not be closed,
as it is indeed a bug and the responsibility of xkb.

This bug is not exclusive to KDE. I use XFCE on a different machine as
well, and encounter the bug there. Various people in this thread have
reported it in other WMs. Is there a reason why the solution should not
be, as the title says, that XKB kick its hotkeys on release rather than
press?

You should get developers' feedback about this approach first. If they
are not willing to merge the patch that works via xorg.conf, you will
only waste your time.

>From the other hand side, you will probably waste your time anyway.
Developers talk about the "standard", and explicitely suggest sending patches 
to standard instead of patching xorg (read previous comments). And when such 
patch for the standard gets attached to this bug report, what happens? Nothing.

Why don't you change your layout switcher key-combination? You can set
up another key-combinations for russian and different key-combination
for english keyboard,too. That's KDE's problem, that allow choose
frequently used key combinations.

[Bug 36812]

[Yanpas]

High, Viktor!

I'm using Ctrl+Shift for twelve years since Win XP. I use this
combintaion on my win machines. So it's definetely not an option for me.
Since I use Cyrillic layout I switch layouts frequently (people using
Latin layouts are less affected). Imagine saving action shortcut
"Ctrl+S" combintaion would be replaced with something like "Alt+R" in
your favourite text editor.

I'm also sure that no one will complain if the patch will be merged. And
I do not understand why should we follow the standard if this standard
makes living uncomfortable.

BTW according to previous comments wayland implentations suffer from
this bug too despite they do not depend on Xorg-server. Do we need
separate patch for libxcb and libxcbcommon?

Me too very upset about this bug: there is patch for several yers - no
one cares. I suggest compromise: add autotools|meson option to enable
this feature. At least every distro would be able to decide whether they
want to provide nonstandard behavior.

I also see that this bug is assigned but nothing happens.

[Bug 36812]

[Kof-box]

After the next update of the package "xserver-xorg-input-evdev-
hwe-16.04" (with dependencies) from the version "1: 2.10.2-1ubuntu1 ~
16.04.1" to the version "1: 2.10.5-1ubuntu1 ~ 16.04.1 ", in the KDE
shell, the language switch does not happen when the keys are released,
but when pressed.

Distributions on which this problem was repeated:
neon-useredition-20171012-1018-amd64
kubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64
kubuntu-17.04-desktop-amd64

Distributions in which there is no such problem:
ubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64
ubuntu-17.04-desktop-amd64 (but there is no such package)

When setting the switch to Ctrl-Shift, you can not quickly select text
with the "Ctrl-Shift-Arrows" keys. However, you do not want to have
outdated xorg packages. Extremely uncomfortable, help!

Sorry, but just to make sure, has there been any progress in the mean
time?

The PDF viewer (pdf.js) included Firefox 45.3.0 is also *not* able to
“correctly” display the form. There is an open issue in their bug
tracker [1], where they take the stand, to not support it, until it’s
part of the ISO PDF standard, and suggest to add support with an
extension.

1. Is XFA free?
2. What alternatives are there?

[Bug 1775798] [NEW] Inappropriately uses Snapcraft icon when snap is missing an icon

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Public bug reported:

When a snap does not have an icon, gnome-software uses the Snapcraft
logo as a substitute.

This is not a good idea, because:
- It gives the Snapcraft logo an association of “something is missing”.
- It gives the Snapcraft logo an association with a snap that might be terrible.

What should happen: Snaps without icons should have a generic icon that
does not include the Snapcraft logo.

(The snapcraft.io equivalent is .)

[Bug 1174162] Re: chrome-browser makes gnome-keyring-daemon use 100% cpu

[Jan Smith]

I am seeing this and not an irccloud.com user.
On my 18.04 system with latest updates installed as of today, 
gnome-keyring-daemon used up about 75-100% of CPU for more than 5 minutes (with 
one chrome window open that had 6 tabs restored).

[Bug 1775794] [NEW] Drop screenshot placeholder area

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Public bug reported:

Upstream gnome-software is targeted solely at graphical applications. So
the app view has a large “No screenshots” placeholder, to encourage the
publisher to upload screenshots.

In Ubuntu the balance is different. gnome-software displays snaps as
well as .debs. And many snaps have only a command-line interface, or (in
the case of daemons) no user interface at all. It is still *possible* to
upload relevant graphics, for example a screenshot of a terminal, or
even a diagram. But it is much less likely, and those kinds of
developers are also less willing and able to do so.

Therefore, the Ubuntu version of gnome-software should omit the “No
screenshots” placeholder.

[This was discussed in the gnome-software design sprint.]
