[Bug 1789356] Re: Dark purple (noise) background flashes up briefly during the login animation since Yaru was introduced

2018-11-13 Thread Daniel van Vugt
I found the problem yesterday. The regression is that the gradient (which didn't appear at all before) now only occupies the middle 50% of the screen. This means it looks squashed and different to the login screen. The top and bottom 25% of the screen are solid colours. It looks like a problem wi

I was wrong. I can see the same bug in git builds. It's just not obvious when you're not coming from the login screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1789356 Title: Dark purple (noise

Thanks. I have confirmed on a third cosmic machine the same bug in 3.30.1-2ubuntu1.18.10.1 :( However, when I apply the above patch to gnome-shell git (either master or gnome-3-30 branches), there is no bug at all. The patch works fine in my own local builds from git. -- You received this bug no

It does make this bug worse. The original bug was barely noticeable, but with that fix it's really a bright and obvious glitch. What we could do is release the SRU but just keep this bug open. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to U

Daniel, ok you consider the fix here as problematic. Do we believe it's worth unvalidating the SRU over it though? We have enough difficulties landing gnome-shell SRUs fixing at the moment and the touch event one included in the same update is important to oem. If the background change is not pe

Yes, I have now tested the proposed fix on two separate fresh installations of cosmic. One HP and one Lenovo laptop. In both cases they show a weird multi-stop gradient after the fix is installed. Looks like the colour goes up-down-up-down instead of just down. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu

Are you sure it's differently? Look at the diff, it's supposively exactly the same values than Yaru. Please check it and revert the status as needed. ** Changed in: gnome-shell (Ubuntu Cosmic) Assignee: Didier Roche (didrocks) => Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt) -- You received this bug notificati

The proposed fix 3.30.1-2ubuntu1.18.10.1 certainly changes things, but is equally broken as the original bug. Using the proposed fix a weird gradient flashes up briefly that doesn't match the login screen background and is more visually distracting than the original bug. ** Tags removed: verifica
