rodarvusinfinity, ping01:13
infinityrodarvus: Hrm?01:29
rodarvusinfinity, I'm plannning to update the fglrx driver on linux-restricted-modules, but couldn't find any public download of the .tar.gz tree we use to package this driver01:30
rodarvusand I've seen you were the last person to update it01:30
infinityrodarvus: I'll do it on Monday.  I run fglrx on my laptop, so it's a bit of a priority for me.01:30
rodarvusso, I was wondering if you know the procedure to update this driver, if via another ftp/www site, or if we just repack the default installer01:30
rodarvus*nods*, ok01:31
infinityrodarvus: It's also moderately tricky what we do to mangle it, and only Ben and I are privvy to that currently.01:31
rodarvus:)01:31
infinity(It includes a pretty sketchy license violation that we have tacit permission to make, but not public agreement)01:31
infinitySo, yeah.  Best to leave it to me for now.01:31
rodarvusok, thanks!01:32
rodarvusinfinity, also, it would be nice to at least update Depends: to xorg-server (>= 1:1.1.1)01:32
rodarvus(if I read correctly, version 8.27 of the driver is for X.Org 7.1 only)01:32
infinityWell, their module SHOULD support 6.9, 7.0, and 7.101:33
infinityYou read incorrectly, I think.  But I'll test that theory when I build it.01:33
rodarvusand how does it deals with xorg-server ABI - it just ignores whatever ABI the server provides?01:33
rodarvus(just curious)01:33
infinityBoth the nvidia and fglrx modules adjust to the ABI (well, the ones they know about) on the fly, IIRC.01:34
infinityIt's all rather scary.01:34
rodarvushaha :)01:34
