tjaaltonbryce: nice, so it's off your back then :)05:41
tjaaltonjcristau: you not on #debian-x? RAOF would like to have access to pkg-xorg07:41
brycetjaalton: indeed07:44
mvobryce, tjaalton: it looks like a fix for http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=488264 was commited. can we try to cherry pick this into our tree?08:56
ubotuGnome bug 488264 in general "keybord grab problem under compiz" [Normal,Unconfirmed] 08:56
tjaaltonmvo: I noticed, it was discussed on #debian-x briefly08:58
mvoaha, nice08:59
mvothe patch looks simple enough08:59

mvotjaalton: do you happen to know if changes to structs like __GLXscreen in the libglx extension modify the abi in a way that might cause problems with fglrx/nvidia?09:45
tjaaltonmvo: they ship their own AFAIK09:46
mvogood, thanks09:47
ubotuNew bug: #183742 in xorg-server (main) "configuration problems" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/18374211:31
tjaaltonbryce: check airlied's comments on #xorg-devel about intel. currently I can't even build the batchbuffer stuff, and even if I could it doesn't do anything useful since intel guys should push their fixes upstream (AIUI)12:06
tjaaltonso.. I'll do something else in the meantime :)12:08
tjaaltonlike, work12:08
Q-FUNKjcristau: at xorg-server (2:1.4-1) in debian.changelog,       x11proto-render-dev was bumped.  was this just to match the latest release or an absolute necessity?15:56
jcristauQ-FUNK: it was because of 030dd885476b70c9054b6e4b50dfdbab12e73716 in renderproto. probably not absolutely necessary16:00
Q-FUNKok16:00
Q-FUNKI was trying to backport the hard xorg into gutsy, to see if it might restore operation on my laptop with siliconmotion.  that build-dep bump made pbuilder barf. :)16:01
jcristaugetting an updated renderproto would be trivial anyway16:02
mvo_insn't the latest fglrx supposed to have texture_from_pixmap?16:46
tjaaltonyes, but apparently it's broken somehow16:46
tjaaltonwe don't have the latest version, btw16:46
tjaaltonbecause it's even more broken than 7.11 :)16:47
mvo_aha, that explains it :)16:47
mvo_meh, is that even possible ;) 16:47
tjaaltonyes, breaks widescreen modes16:47
tjaalton"quality control - FAIL"16:47
mvo_:)16:48
mvo_ok, thanks for this info16:48

tjaaltonsome failsafe mode.. everything else is running but I have metacity instead of compiz19:40
tjaaltonwhich is failsafe enough :P19:40

Q-FUNKbryce: how do you like poulsbo, so far?21:11
brycemy judgement is likely clouded from having the last 2 weeks consumed by a single bug in it, but I'm yet to see what the big deal is about it21:13
brycethe 3D driver might make a difference21:14
tjaaltonI've built drm, mesa, xserver (& couple of libs) master, and intel-batchbuffer, and the damn thing doesn't work. some part is lacking the batchbuffer stuff :/21:26
tjaaltonintel_dri.so complains about some unknown symbol and fails21:27
tjaaltonvideo ABI has bumped to 4 btw21:28
brycehrm21:28
bryceI only talked briefly with rolla yesterday, but we discussed falling back to XAA; she says it's understandable  we'd need to take that approach until things are working better21:29
tjaaltonyep21:30
Q-FUNKbryce: ok.  that matches my assessment of the chipset.21:31
bryceit's a tiny chip; maybe the attraction is that it works "okay" but is tons smaller and less power consuming than the equivalent normal gfx chip21:32
Q-FUNKto me, the main quibble is that it's touted as "almost x86" except it really isn't21:32
bryceI'm a bit disappointed how much customized cruft has built up around it21:32
brycemakes working on it rather complicated21:33
Q-FUNKwell, people want either real x86 or somehting completely different.  since it's touted as "almost x86" people start by building the almost, as in with libgcc121:34
ubotuNew bug: #182358 in compiz (main) "Compiz crashes my laptop (Intel T7200) Nvidia 7400 (dup-of: 145112)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/18235822:15
tjaaltonwell, something positive; on resume LCD backlight is turned on with intel master22:27
tjaaltonbefore I had to change the vt to turn it on22:29
tjaaltonhmm, grammar errors, but you get the point ;)22:30
ubotuNew bug: #183893 in libxfont (main) "[Sync request] Sync libxfont (1:1.3.1-2) from Debian unstable (main)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/18389322:46
Q-FUNKtjaalton: here, with siliconmotion, this fails completely since X 1.3. with 1.2, the console switching trick you describe worked.  with 1.1, I never needed it.  operation was spotless.22:46
tjaaltonsee, that's progress :)22:47
Q-FUNKafter briefly testing with1.4 tonight, I notice thta it keeps on getting worse.  same x-x-video-siliconmotion source, different x core.22:59
Q-FUNKlovely definition of progress.22:59
bryceI'd think Q-FUNK hated X if I didn't know better ;-)23:09
