[00:01] <bryce> seb128: hrm, from what I can tell I did not get a response from any gnomecc developers :-/
[00:02] <seb128> bryce: be patient, that's not even a day
[00:13] <bryce> ok
[09:03] <tjaalton> mvo_: regarding the problems with nvidia/fglrx postrm & diversions, there's a proposed patch in bug 130208
[09:03] <tjaalton> mvo_: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9881445/linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22_2.6.22.4-13.6ubuntu1.debdiff
[09:03] <ubotu> Launchpad 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/130208
[09:04] <tjaalton> mvo_: if you have time to check if the mechanism looks good..
[09:05] <tjaalton> tseliot proposed another patch (bug 36625), but this looks better to my eyes
[09:05] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 36625 in linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 "can't remove nvidia-glx" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/36625
[09:12] <mvo_> tjaalton: the logic looks ok, also "==" is a bashism, it should be "=" instead
[09:13] <mvo_> and I would use $() instead of ` `
[09:14] <tjaalton> mvo_: cool, thanks! I guess I'll add that for -8
[09:14] <tjaalton> there are a lot of dupes about that, but I kept them separate since some had these suggestions about how to fix it
[09:14] <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 case
[09:15] <mvo_> tjaalton: yeah, its cool that this is attacked now :)
[09:15] <tjaalton> I'm trying to keep the l-r-m-2.6.24 bug list sane :)
[09:16] <tjaalton> .22 has 220 open bugs
[09:16] <tjaalton> .24 "only" 52 at the moment
[09:18] <bryce> yay

[21:56] <tjaalton> over 400 less than what it was two months ago
[22:10] <bryce> :-)
[22:11] <bryce> I got bored breaking my displays and sorting out crtc issues so am reviewing bugs
[22:11] <seb128> good work guys ;-)
[22:11] <bryce> thanks seb128
[22:12] <bryce> tjaalton: btw, did we get to a decision on XAA vs. EXA on 965?  I'm debating about uploading my patch for bug 175774
[22:12] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 175774 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "[hardy] Enabling "Normal" effects produces badly drawn window shadows." [Critical,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/175774
[22:13] <mvo> if you do exa, we could keep compiz enabled there ...
[22:14] <tjaalton> well, if it can be patched to keep exa & greedy for 965..
[22:14] <tjaalton> bryce: didn't upstream say that patch would break stuff?
[22:15] <bryce> tjaalton: I never really got a response from upstream on it
[22:15] <bryce> but I've been running it on one of my 965 machines I use a lot, with no issues  evident
[22:16] <tjaalton> ok.. anyway, exa without any tricks is unusable on 965
[22:16] <tjaalton> and the rest could use xaa
[22:16] <tjaalton> and with tricks the shadow looks fine, since it bypasses most acceleration paths
[22:19] <tjaalton> seb128: 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-hotplug
[22:19] <tjaalton> h-s-p works when run by hand but not from a hal script
[22:19] <tjaalton> which would suggest that there's some priviledge issues
[22:20] <seb128> tjaalton: not really, ask pitti rather when he's around tomorrow
[22:22] <tjaalton> seb128: ok cool, I will
