shiningrodarvus: hi01:02
rodarvushi shining01:03
shiningyou just missed my question on debian-x :) but it's more on topic here :01:05
shininghttp://pastebin.ca/13437701:05
rodarvusshining, thanks, I'm working on this fix as we speak :)01:08
rodarvus(been doing since yesterday afternoon, actually)01:08
shiningha, so there is really something to be fixed, I thought I messed up something during the huge update :)01:08
shiningha ok01:08
rodarvusactually mesa already has the right dri directory builtin01:09
shiningthough, I think I first saw this problem quite a while ago01:09
shiningha01:09
rodarvusbut it seems that for some users upgrading from dapper, this is not working01:09
rodarvusI'm chasing the root of this problem01:10
shiningha, well that was my case, but I'll maybe reinstall anyway01:10
shiningho right01:11
shiningjust booted on edgy desktop cd, and it looks in the correct place01:11
shiningbut r300 is not there :d01:11
shiningbtw, it's not possible to get the stupid eye candy effect with edgy?01:14
shiningaiglx+compiz worked fine on dapper, after adding an unofficial repo. but the edgy branch of this repo seems broken01:15
rodarvusno need to add extra repositories for aiglx on edgy (it is part of official xorg-server)01:16
rodarvuscompiz is a different subject, obviously01:17
shiningwhat about xserver-xorg-air or something?01:21
shiningit seems to be available, but Xorg-air didn't start01:21
ajmitchcompiz will be updated soon, I promise :)01:27
ajmitchshining: just use the regular x server01:27
=== rodarvus has no idea of what xserver-xorg-air is - "accelerated indirect rendering"?
ajmitchyes, obsolete, should be removed from edgy01:28
rodarvusbut anyhow, as ajmitch says, no need to run a different xorg-server01:28
rodarvusyou'll just need compiz, quite probably01:28
rodarvus(and it is/should be on universe)01:28
ajmitchshould be, the one in universe is broken, I've got packages locally that are missing a patch or two01:29
ajmitchah, bug 5599701:29
shiningha ok01:38
shiningwell anyway, I don't really care, as long as 3d accel is working :) I just wanted to play a bit more with it till I'm bored01:39
rodarvusajmitch, to remove this package from edgy you'll have to subscribe ubuntu-archive to this bug01:40
rodarvus(and probably make it have a more formal wording)01:40
ajmitchyes, I didn't file it, I just remembered seeing it :)01:40
rodarvus"please remove xorg-air from edgy, as upstream xorg-server implements aiglx natively" or something like this01:40
ajmitchat least malone has a nice clear link to editing the description now01:41
shiningho02:53
shiningactually, it's looking in /usr/lib/dri/ when libgl1-mesa-glx and libgl1-mesa-dri are not installed02:54
shiningso it doesnt find anything, because the dri package containing the driver is not there02:54
shiningbut after installing these packages, now that the drivers are in /usr/lib/dri/, it looks in /usr/X11R6/ again :d02:55
shiningit's funny02:55
