Rootless Xmir fits just fine with a splash screen, provided it does not draw anything before its clients draw. I disagree that "we need to move out of it" - sure, some apps launch faster, others will still take a while to launch.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1577641] Re: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps
I don't think a utilities socket is a useful solution. Mir apps need to discover their socket automatically. libmirclient does not know or care about the difference between an app and a utility. There is only one default Mir socket it can find automatically, and only one Mir socket for Unity8. Secondly, the utility idea only solves it for utilities like mirout and media-hub. We also have the same problem with actual apps where 'Xmir -rootless' is running for some time before the app exists. It should not be given a window until the X app creates one. Fixing this bug may also be a prerequisite for bug 1668429 if we need 'Xmir -rootless' running in advance. I understand the original motivation for the splash screen, but we need to move out of it. Apps should launch faster so it's a non-issue. Or at least desktop mode should not show splash screens since slow launching is really more of a mobile problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577641 Title: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps Status in Canonical System Image: Won't Fix Status in Mir: Invalid Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1577641] Re: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps
Just to clarify: Unity8 shows a contextual (app name, icon) and configurable (via .desktop file atm) splash screen for apps that connect on the default socket. That splash screen is replaced with the actual surface as soon as the client *draws* to it. If, at any point, the contents are black, that means the client has drawn a black frame. We may modify how the splash screen behaves, delay it for a very short time and have a minimum time it has to be on screen, so that there's never a "flicker". This way a client that draws or quits (utilities?) very quickly (within the initial delay) will go straight to the surface. Any, however, that missed that mark, will appear slower than they are in reality, to avoid the splash-to-app flicker. I've filed bug #1670442 for that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577641 Title: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps Status in Canonical System Image: Won't Fix Status in Mir: Invalid Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps.

I'm going to say Won't Fix again. On the default socket we only expect apps - apps that will have surfaces. For those apps unity8 is showing a splash screen. Any clients that are not apps can connect on a trusted socket - and we may decide to open a "utilities" socket, but we wouldn't accept any surfaces there. ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix ** Changed in: canonical-devices-system-image Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577641 Title: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps Status in Canonical System Image: Won't Fix Status in Mir: Invalid Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Bug description: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps.

Actually the bug that bug 1606501 is a duplicate of is fixed. I haven't yet confirmed that 1606501 is really fixed too. OK, I understand this bug is something you don't want fixed. And the description of this bug alone makes it a low priority issue, sure. However the implications of not fixing this bug are larger.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1577641] Re: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps
Bug 1606501 is fixed now, btw. How do you propose we fix this? Waiting for the client to create a window won't be something we want to do. Again, I don't believe we're drawing the black. We're displaying a splash screen immediately and only hide it when the client has drawn a frame. So "it's not invalid for Xmir to not create a window" is correct, but if that was the case we'd see the splash screen, not black. As for initial surface geometry, it's only a problem the first time ever you launch an app, as we're remembering its previous geometry and open the splash screen at the size we'll tell the app to be when it's launching now. I.e. we don't rely on the app remembering its geometry, we do this ourselves. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577641 Title: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in Mir: Invalid Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1577641] Re: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps
Unity8 needs this bug fixing for one simple reason: Even apps that do display a window "immediately" will get a splash screen of the wrong size displayed before a window of the correct size appears. This will be particularly important after bug 1606501 gets fully fixed. And no, it's not invalid for Xmir to not create a window on start-up in rootless mode, it is correct behaviour. It's a server and has no windows until the X client creates one. It's distracting and confusing for Unity8 to create a black window where there should be no window at all. ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New ** Changed in: mir Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577641 Title: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in Mir: Invalid Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1577641] Re: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps
I'm not sure if/how we solve this, unity8 wants to show the splash screen as soon as it knows an app is being launched, so that there's an immediate UI feedback to the user. When we get the first frame from the client, we hide the splash screen. It works fine for native apps. Not sure what Xmir does, but since we're not treating it any differently I'd venture to say it's Xmir's fault for drawing the black before there is an app in there. ** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Also affects: mir Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577641 Title: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps Status in Canonical System Image: New Status in Mir: New Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Unity8 creates a blank black window for windowless apps.
