| tjaalton | sweet | 08:38 |
| bryce | hey, tjaalton I don't remember if I showed you this already - http://bryceharrington.org/files/bisect.html | 08:52 |
| bryce | (prototype) | 08:52 |
| tjaalton | mm, looks useful | 08:53 |
| bryce | yeah, in analyzing bug upstreaming, I've noticed that much of the time upstream asks the user to do a git bisect | 08:55 |
| bryce | the vast majority of our users will go %-} at that point | 08:55 |
| bryce | so this is intended to make git bisecting user friendly for them | 08:56 |
| bryce | I've got like 90% of the scripting done to generate that page, and to generate the packages | 08:56 |
| bryce | unfortunately ppa is proving to be uncooperative. | 08:56 |
| bryce | anyway, once it's online I hope this will become a useful tool for us | 08:57 |
| tjaalton | will you make the commit-id's as links to the git commit? | 08:58 |
| bryce | I've got it committed in with tormod's packaging tools - https://code.launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/xorg-server/xorg-pkg-tools | 08:58 |
| bryce | sure - in fact I wanted to bring this to your attention to gather suggestions like that | 08:59 |
| bryce | also, to cut down on the number of packages, I'm only listing every 8th commit. If you think it'd be better to list more (or less), that'd be good to know | 09:00 |
| tjaalton | so you'll plan on making a package for every visible commit? | 09:02 |
| bryce | at this point I'm thinking every 8th commit | 09:02 |
| tjaalton | but the page shows every commit? | 09:03 |
| bryce | no, there are 7 "hidden" commits between each line | 09:03 |
| tjaalton | ah ok | 09:04 |
| bryce | I guess that's not clear enough | 09:04 |
| tjaalton | in that case it's probably not worth it to make the visible ones as links | 09:04 |
| bryce | c.f. to http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/driver/xf86-video-intel.git;a=shortlog | 09:04 |
| bryce | would it be better to have every single commit? I worry it might be too much disk space in the ppa | 09:05 |
| tjaalton | probably not, but maybe have a way to show the hidden commits between packaged versions? | 09:06 |
| tjaalton | then it might be easier to find the broken commit | 09:07 |
| bryce | true | 09:07 |
| bryce | yeah I plan to apply hefty javascript on top to help hide unnecessary clutter | 09:07 |
| bryce | some day | 09:07 |
| tjaalton | :P | 09:07 |
| bryce | first I must bend PPA to my will | 09:08 |
| bryce | so far the only way I can get it to accept my packages is to up the epoch to 3: | 09:08 |
| bryce | it won't accept packages that are "older" than what's currently in main | 09:08 |
| bryce | which seems silly but anyway. | 09:08 |
| tjaalton | yeah | 09:16 |
| bryce | bleah, some day I need to go through and close out all those displayconfig-gtk bugs | 09:22 |
| bryce | seb128: btw, 203897/204447 has a fix that's ready to upload | 09:25 |
| seb128 | bug #203897 | 09:25 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 203897 in control-center "monitor resolution panel won't fit on 640x480 screen" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/203897 | 09:25 |
| seb128 | bug #204447 | 09:25 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 204447 in gnome-control-center "Display capplet's border is too big" [Low,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/204447 | 09:25 |
| seb128 | bryce: the current hardy version already has those no? | 09:29 |
| seb128 | bryce: it didn't get autoclosing because the bug is on control-center instead of gnome-control-center which is the new naming | 09:30 |
| bryce | oh, ah | 09:31 |
| bryce | ok, then I'll close those two | 09:31 |
| seb128 | bryce: anything else which was waiting for upload while I'm in a sponsoring sprint? ;-) | 09:31 |
| seb128 | bryce: thanks | 09:32 |
| bryce | no, the only other one is bug 203612, but I think I can take care of that one myself now. | 09:34 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 203612 in displayconfig-gtk "Screens and Graphics menu item in wrong section" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/203612 | 09:34 |
| bryce | oh, and I'm also waiting on feedback from you for 199960. I can easily make a patch to check for Xgl if you like. | 09:36 |
| bryce | I've no problem telling Xgl users that they're smoking crack though. | 09:36 |
| seb128 | well, what doesn't work on xgl? | 09:36 |
| seb128 | shouldn't the gnome-desktop upload I sponsored yesterday which traps the xerror fix the crash there? | 09:36 |
| bryce | I gather xrandr 1.2 isn't implemented (properly?) on xgl | 09:37 |
| seb128 | or that's another call having the issue? | 09:37 |
| bryce | yeah it may. I suspect we now have some redundant checks going on | 09:37 |
| seb128 | let's see if that does the trick | 09:38 |
| seb128 | I'm not in a hurry to fix xgl anyway | 09:38 |
| seb128 | that's an universe thing and not supported | 09:38 |
| bryce | heh, you seem to have about as high of an opinion of xgl as I | 09:38 |
| seb128 | ;-) | 09:38 |
| seb128 | the good thing is that many of those users reported that they removed xgl | 09:38 |
| bryce | yup | 09:39 |
| seb128 | and that compiz still works correctly on normal xorg and aiglx | 09:39 |
| tjaalton | bryce: aren't you a core-dev now? use the power! :) | 09:51 |
| bryce | tjaalton: yeah like I said I think I can take care of it now ;-) | 09:52 |
| seb128 | oh, you are? | 09:52 |
| seb128 | congrats! | 09:53 |
| bryce | thanks :-) | 09:53 |
| tjaalton | bryce: also, since I've been slacking with sponsoring lately, you can upload intel/displayconfig-gtk etc you have pending :) | 09:53 |
| bryce | thanks I will, although the only remaining pending uploads had some problems in testing I need to look into | 09:55 |
| bryce | ok, night. | 09:59 |
| tjaalton | night | 09:59 |
| tjaalton | I'll upload nv later today | 09:59 |

| tjaalton | bryce: yep, they should be hosted somewhere else | 21:39 |
| bryce | yeah I'm setting up builds locally and will push to my people.ubuntu.com account. *shrug* | 21:44 |
| bryce | I think if I push only the debs, and don't put up debug packages, it shouldn't occupy too much space | 21:44 |
