pwnguintjaalton: thanks for the tip. bc72ef3a159efd67067322c043bba444869dc356 contains the patch06:50
tjaaltonpwnguin: cool, so it'll be in hardy before too long07:09
tjaaltonbryce: check the video blog entry by john palmieri on planet.fd.o08:14
tjaaltonfedora has some config tool for configuring X, with multiple heads even08:16
* Ng tsks, imho this stuff shouldn't be tool based, it should be event based. "hey, I detect a new monitor, select which display you want to clone/extend" :)10:25
jcristauNg: there's no such event10:28
jcristauvga or tv load detection causes flicker, so you don't want to do that every second10:28
NgI didn't say it was possible ;)10:30
Ngbut if xrandr --auto can know that I have a VGA monitor on my laptop or not, it suggests that (perhaps with hardware modifications) it ought to be possible to have a non-polling solution10:31
Ngno ordinary user wants to go digging around in a display configurmatron, is my basic point :)10:33

brycemvo, yes, I'm aware there's a number of things not working with it, most fundamentally displayconfig-gtk no longer can deal with xorg.conf as they're currently written17:36
brycebbiab17:37
mvo_bryce, tjaalton: on the life-cd in a VM I get the X failed to start dialog box. when I click "continue" then X shuts down 17:45
mvo_it maybe specific to the live-cd17:45
mvo_or the VM17:45
tjaaltonok, that's new17:52
tjaaltonI guess17:52
tjaaltonit didn't work before either, but still :)17:52
mvo_heh :)18:00
mvo_ok, sorry for not being more helpful18:01
tjaaltonI'll test that myself before too long18:21

bdmurraybryce: I've submitted bug 187846 is that a driver or compiz bug?20:39

brycebdmurray: -intel bug, not a compiz bug20:40
brycebdmurray: also, please check the -intel bugs, as there was another one like that filed.  However it was against 965 iirc, so may not be dupe-able20:40
bdmurrayokay, I've changed the package then20:40

brycebdmurray: also, I'd appreciate it if when you put bugs into an xorg component, that you ask them to attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log, /etc/X11/xorg.conf, and lspci -vvnn output20:41
brycebdmurray: it'd save us an extra step in triaging20:42
bdmurrayokay20:42
seb128got the keyboard bug again, anybody interested to debug it before i restart xorg,20:46
bdmurraybryce: Do you want those same bits for the bug on the live cd I just filed?20:47
seb128that is supposed to be a question but without modified there is some limitation ;-)20:47
bryceseb128: sure, I've just finished the ubuntu-mobile work and am ready to re-task20:49
bryceseb128: however I'm not certain what approach to take for debugging it yet20:49
seb128k20:49
brycebdmurray: yes; in fact by default generally all xorg bugs need those three things.20:49
seb128i confirm that xorg see this key event i mentionned yesterday in continuous20:49
seb128that breaks modifiers use and make applications open in background20:49
brycebdmurray: in fact, my fingers now type out requests for those files in my sleep20:50
bdmurraybryce: you mentioned a similar issue in bug 147359 what model video card did you notice it with?20:50
ubotuLaunchpad bug 147359 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "intel 3D artifacts" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/14735920:50
bryceseb128: ok; did we identify any existing bug id#'s for this?  that's probably step #120:50
brycebdmurray: 96520:51
tjaaltonbryce: I couldn't find one20:51
brycetjaalton: ok thanks20:51
seb128bryce: no20:51
seb128should i open one20:51
bdmurraybryce: and I have 945 so is my bug a duplicate?20:51
seb128sorry about the limited punctuation, azerty without modifier is funny20:52
brycebdmurray: I'd keep it separate.  There's actually a significant difference in the driver between 915-945, and 96520:53
bdmurrayokay20:53
jcristaumissing redirected direct rendering is not a driver issue, though20:54
bryceseb128: can you open a bug in LP and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log, /etc/X11/xorg.conf, lspci, and ~/.xsession-errors?20:57
seb128bryce: ok20:58
bdmurraybryce: The reason I was testing this is because it is listed as test case.  Perhaps it shouldn't be?20:59
bryceno, it's a good test case20:59
brycerunning glxgears and moving it around turns up a variety of bugs20:59
bryceunfortunately probably not bugs we can easily do something about yet21:00
bdmurrayperhaps the test case should have a note about bug 147359 then?21:01
