2013-10-07 18:35:08 kevin gunn description Note - under normal use of unity/mir this phenomena is not seen (e.g. a user will never see it) this bug is actually capturing the need for some type of re-initialization state of powerd as it relates to the restart of unity & mir. the problem is that if unity8 is killed (and in contagion mir), powerd may still change state independently - which can result in mir both being a) confused about the fb state & b) unable/no control to actually change the fb state possible solutions 1) unity-mir needs to somehow reinit powerd into a "good state" for mir or 2) mir needs to talk to powerd directly (altho this would mean contagious changes needed in mir) related to this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/mir/+bug/1188504 Note - under normal use of unity/mir this phenomena is not seen (e.g. a user will never see it) this bug is actually capturing the need for some type of re-initialization state of powerd as it relates to the restart of unity & mir. for instance in the case where the system is under test, the problem is that if unity8 is killed (and in contagion mir), powerd may still change state independently - which can result in mir both being a) confused about the fb state & b) unable/no control to actually change the fb state possible solutions 1) unity-mir needs to somehow reinit powerd into a "good state" for mir or 2) mir needs to talk to powerd directly (altho this would mean contagious changes needed in mir) related to this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/mir/+bug/1188504
