[18:39] <tjaalton> bryce: I asked pitti to promote vmmouse and openchrome to main, so we can test them with alpha3
[18:44] <bryce> ok cool
[18:46] <bryce> I've done a  pkill -9 fetchmail  - there was some fetchmail process hanging around
[18:53] <bryce> oops, mischannel :-)
[19:29] <tjaalton> heh
[19:55] <tedg> Okay, I upgraded my laptop to Hardy... not good.
[19:55] <tedg> It seems when ever I have the synaptics driver in my xorg.conf my mouse no longer moves.
[19:55] <tedg> I've played with it a bunch, but I can't seem to get the two happy together.
[19:57] <tedg> The only thing that is a little odd is this: "(**) Synaptics Touchpad: doesn't report core events"
[19:57] <tedg> It seems that, in theory, it should report core events.
[19:57] <tedg> Or is that done through another interface and the synaptics driver only handles the "extra" events?
[20:19] <tjaalton> tedg: did you upgrade or install from scratch? I mean is the xorg.conf the same as before?
[20:19] <tedg> Well, it was.  But the nvidia driver won't load, so I had to switch it to "nv".
[20:19] <tedg> Other than that it's the same.
[20:19] <tedg> Oh, I guess I didn't answer the question: upgrade :)
[20:19] <tjaalton> heh, ok
[20:20] <tjaalton> I don't have a touchpad on any of the laptops in my possession, so can't help there much :/
[20:21] <tedg> Yeah, I'm guessing it's a synaptics driver issue.  I think it must be disabling the movement parts of the touchpad.
[20:22] <tedg> The funny part is that if I comment out "AlwaysCore" I get the touchpad working in a fixed position mode like a tablet.
[20:22] <tjaalton> the driver hasn't changed much, so probably it just doesn't work right with xserver 1.4
[20:23] <tjaalton> mjg59 promised to look at it though ;)
[20:23] <tedg> :)  So, should I file a bug then?
[20:24] <tjaalton> I think there's a dupe
[20:25] <tedg> The other thing that's interesting is that when the nvidia driver failed I didn't get any reasonable fallback.
[20:25] <tjaalton> check the log
[20:25] <tjaalton> I'd just like to know why it failed :)
[20:26] <tedg> I got "get-edid is not installed" and that 'does not know how to configure the "shared/default-x-server doesn't exist" X server'
[20:26] <tedg> It didn't fall back to nv or vesa on it's own.
[20:26] <tjaalton> oh
[20:26] <tedg> Oh, the reason it failed is that it couldn't load the kernel driver.
[20:26] <tedg> Which seems to be because my computer won't boot with the -386 kernel, but only the -generic one, but I'm unsure of what that means.
[20:27] <tedg> (and why their symbols would be different to the point of not loading the nvidia driver)
[20:27] <tjaalton> hmm, so it installed the -386 flavor by default?
[20:28] <tjaalton> ahahaa, failsafeDexconf needs an update (lots of debconf keys gone now) :)
[20:28] <tedg> I'm guessing, but it does seem to exist in the modules directories... I'm kinda confused on that right now.
[20:29] <bryce> the get-edid warning is non-harmful.  I need to figure out how to suppress that
[20:30] <tedg> bryce: I was looking for it, it's not in a supported package -- so that'd be a good thing :)
[20:32]  * tedg is dying without right click...  must find external mouse...
[20:39] <tjaalton>     # Discard stderr, which is text data about the card
[20:39] <tjaalton>     get-edid 2>/dev/null
[20:40] <tjaalton> before that there is 'is_installed get-edid "retrieve EDID" || return 1'
[20:53] <tjaalton> bryce: I'll merge xorg/xorg-server/mesa for alpha3, so if you have pending stuff queued up, let me know
[20:54] <tjaalton> I'll fix failsafeDexconf to always use "xorg" as the xserver, like the real dexconf does
[20:55] <bryce> ok
[20:55] <bryce> I don't have anything for mesa; I chucked the work I was doing on it since I never got it working properly
[21:01] <tjaalton> ok
