bryceseb128: heya17:49
seb128hey bryce17:49
seb128bryce: did you start on moving the gnome-desktop to a copy?17:50
bryceyes, I got most of the changes done friday; now just need to get it to compile and build17:50
seb128bryce: ok, lool doesn't agree that's the best way to do thing and likes the lib with unstable define better so I'm not sure what is right now17:53
seb128sorry about that17:53
seb128maybe worth discussing at the meeting this week17:53
bryceuff17:53
bryceok, I'll set aside the remainder of that work.  Sounds like the radeonhd xrandr bugs need some attention so I'll focus on those.17:54
seb128yes, I was going to mention that17:55
seb128sorry again17:55
seb128I still think the copy is better than abusing the lib so it's not sure that will not be used yet ;-)17:55
seb128I'm cleaning duplicates of the g-s-d crasher now17:56
seb128there seem to be different issues17:56
bryceok17:56
seb128an xerror, likely happening to people who have a driver not supporting xrand1.217:56
seb128and a crasher17:56
seb128https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/197706 has a detailled stacktrace of the crasher17:57
bryceI suspect the fix is going to need to be some sort of blacklist in g-s-d, so it'll probably be good to know what range of cards have the problem17:57
seb128hum?17:57
seb128why?17:57
seb128I think the crasher is a code bug which should be fixed17:57
seb128and there is likely an api to ask xorg if xrandr1.2 is supported no?17:58
brycewell, what I suspect is that the drivers are actually saying they do support xrandr 1.2, but in reality they don't17:59
jcristauit's called XRRQueryVersion()17:59
seb128those drivers should be fixed if they do that no?17:59
brycecertainly, but I'm worried that may be a lot more work than can be achieved in the near term18:00
brycealso, at least one reporter was using -nvidia, which we can't fix18:00
bryceseb128: have you seen any reports of this issue by fglrx users?18:00
seb128all that sounds like we want to drop the change and defer the spec to next cycle18:00
seb128https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-desktop/+bug/197153 has comments from intel, fglrx, radeonhd users18:01
ubotuLaunchpad bug 197153 in gnome-settings-daemon "gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV" [Undecided,New] 18:01
brycewell, let me look into it; it might be something simpler18:01
seb128https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/dell/+bug/197354 is nvidia using xinerama18:02
ubotuLaunchpad bug 197354 in gnome-settings-daemon "gnome-settings-daemon doesn't work with xinerama (nvidia, amd64) (dup-of: 197153)" [Undecided,New] 18:02
ubotuLaunchpad bug 197153 in gnome-settings-daemon "gnome-settings-daemon crashed with SIGSEGV" [Undecided,New] 18:02
seb128"enabling Xinerama (with one or two displays) causes it to crash on startup. The assertion "screen != NULL" fails in screen_update, after a parse error starting xrandr manager."18:03
seb128interesting comment18:03
bryceok, if nvidia with xinerama and fglrx are also failing, then it may be just a missing xrandr 1.2 check, which should be easy to stick in18:03
seb128https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/198017 is a dell laptop using nvidia18:04
