tjaaltonI've got it on my git tree07:59
tjaaltonthe latest upload fixed the issue where keys got stuck08:00
tjaaltonso maybe seb128 is happy now :)08:00
bryceyeah I'll take a deeper look tomorrow.  Also got some various patches and stuff I need to test and get uploaded08:01
tjaaltonwhat i'd like to get fixed is the problem where the server falls back to 800x600 resolution, because it's using the default ranges (hsync 31.50-37.90, vrefresh 50-70)08:02
tjaaltonthere are some modesetting patches upstream08:03

Ngtjaalton: did you build 2.6.24-13 yourself, or is my mirror just stale?13:04
sorenNg: 2.6.24-13 seems to be in the archive.13:08
Nghmm13:10
* Ng shrugs, I'll check back in a bit and see if apt cares about it yet :)13:11
tjaaltonNg: a.u.c has it, but there are no lum/lrm packages yet, so no wifi etc :)13:12
Ngah, that'll be why apt doesn't care yet :)13:12
tjaaltonyes, you need to hand-pick it13:12
Ngright now I need lum ;)13:12
tjaaltonhehe13:12

mvotjaalton: do you have a idea about bug #208961 ? the libgl1-mesa-glx failure?13:21
ubotuLaunchpad bug 208961 in mesa "Update manager fails - From Gutsy to Hardy Beta" [High,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/20896113:21
tjaaltonmvo: hum, not really.. why would it fail even if that file was not there13:27
tjaaltonor does it unpack libGL.so first and tries to link it to libGL.so.1 which is not yet unpacked?13:28
mvotjaalton: that is possible, I have not looked closely yet, but it sounds pausible13:29
tjaaltonthe logs didn't have anything about nvidia/fglrx so that's not it :)13:29
tjaaltonwell, nvidia-kernel-common but everyone has it13:30
jcristaucould be a diversion gone mad13:34
jcristauthey tend to be made of fail13:35
tjaaltonyep..13:35
* mvo wished there would be a declarative way for diversions (instead of putting them in the maintainer scripts)13:35
tjaaltonmvo: maybe check if the user has had nvidia/fglrx installed at some point13:36
mvotjaalton: my personal favorite solution would be that the maintainer script would be robust enough to not fail but if needed I can try to add magic to update-manager 13:36
tjaaltonmvo: I think they are better now13:37
tjaaltonoh you mean mesa?13:37
mvoyeah13:37
jcristaumvo: dpkg is failing to unpack the package afaics, nothing the maint scripts can do13:37
tjaaltonmesa maint scripts only do ldconfig13:38
tjaaltonat least the one for libgl1-mesa-glx13:38
tjaaltonones13:38
mvojcristau, tjaalton: right, my bad. I haven't looked close enough13:38
tjaaltonbut the nvidia/fglrx scripts should be better now, but not something that can be fixed for released versions I think13:39
mvotjaalton, bryce: do you have any idea what might cause bug #208878 ?16:11
tjaaltonmvo: could be the nvidia driver playing tricks16:16
brycemvo, I've added some speculation and questions19:53
brycemvo, currently there's not enough detail in the report to really do much troubleshooting, aside from maybe browsing l-r-m for similar reports19:53
denndaHey. Are there any issues known related to Intel X3100 graphics cards and external screens? (Especially if you want to rotate the external screen)19:55
brycedenna, yeah see bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/19:56
brycerotation causes lockups on some intel cards19:56
brycewe need someone to do some backtraces and such to narrow in on where the problem is.19:57
* dennda volunteers19:57
denndaJust not right now, but I would be more than happy to help fix the outstanding issues (I have, as I said, a X3100)20:01
denndabryce: just tell me what I need to do20:04
bryceok, the procedure is documented at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingXorg; I can give more advice when you are ready to work on it20:07
brycebbiab20:07
denndaOk. That's likely to be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow20:07
denndaI hope there's still enough time to get those things into hardy :)20:10
bryceexcellent20:29
bryceeven if not, the crash-on-rotate bug is important enough we can push to get it SRU'd post-release20:29
