tjaaltonmvo_: regarding the problems with nvidia/fglrx postrm & diversions, there's a proposed patch in bug 13020809:03
tjaaltonmvo_: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9881445/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22_2.6.22.4-13.6ubuntu1.debdiff09:03
ubotuLaunchpad bug 130208 in linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 "package nvidia-glx None failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 2" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/13020809:03
tjaaltonmvo_: if you have time to check if the mechanism looks good..09:04
tjaaltontseliot proposed another patch (bug 36625), but this looks better to my eyes09:05
ubotuLaunchpad bug 36625 in linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 "can't remove nvidia-glx" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/3662509:05
mvo_tjaalton: the logic looks ok, also "==" is a bashism, it should be "=" instead09:12
mvo_and I would use $() instead of ` `09:13
tjaaltonmvo_: cool, thanks! I guess I'll add that for -809:14
tjaaltonthere are a lot of dupes about that, but I kept them separate since some had these suggestions about how to fix it09:14
mvo_nice, my only concern left would be that the output of dpkg-divert might change depending on the locale, but quickly looking over the dpkg-divert code, this seems to be not the case09:14
mvo_tjaalton: yeah, its cool that this is attacked now :)09:15
tjaaltonI'm trying to keep the l-r-m-2.6.24 bug list sane :)09:15
tjaalton.22 has 220 open bugs09:16
tjaalton.24 "only" 52 at the moment09:16

bryce:-)22:10
bryceI got bored breaking my displays and sorting out crtc issues so am reviewing bugs22:11
seb128good work guys ;-)22:11
brycethanks seb12822:11
brycetjaalton: btw, did we get to a decision on XAA vs. EXA on 965?  I'm debating about uploading my patch for bug 17577422:12
ubotuLaunchpad bug 175774 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "[hardy] Enabling "Normal" effects produces badly drawn window shadows." [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/17577422:12
mvoif you do exa, we could keep compiz enabled there ...22:13
tjaaltonwell, if it can be patched to keep exa & greedy for 965..22:14
tjaaltonbryce: didn't upstream say that patch would break stuff?22:14
brycetjaalton: I never really got a response from upstream on it22:15
brycebut I've been running it on one of my 965 machines I use a lot, with no issues  evident22:15
tjaaltonok.. anyway, exa without any tricks is unusable on 96522:16
tjaaltonand the rest could use xaa22:16
tjaaltonand with tricks the shadow looks fine, since it bypasses most acceleration paths22:16
tjaaltonseb128: do you personally know any hal experts? I'm waiting a reply from upstream about a problem I have with hal-set-property. it would be vital for input-hotplug22:19
tjaaltonh-s-p works when run by hand but not from a hal script22:19
tjaaltonwhich would suggest that there's some priviledge issues22:19
seb128tjaalton: not really, ask pitti rather when he's around tomorrow22:20
tjaaltonseb128: ok cool, I will22:22
