superm1 | bryce, i had to duck out earlier before i caught you. are you around now by chance? | 00:41 |
---|---|---|
bryce | yup | 00:44 |
superm1 | i was gonna let you know that i talked to AMD about how to get proprietary drivers to take precedence in X auto detection | 00:44 |
superm1 | they indicated that simply shipping a /usr/share/xserver-xorg/pci/00fglrx.ids (and similar for nvidia) should do the trick | 00:45 |
superm1 | so long as those are shipped in the appropriate driver packages (since you only want them in those cases), should work | 00:45 |
bryce | ah ok | 00:54 |
superm1 | i'm at a bit of a loss how exactly the name gets put into it, but i'll do some experimenting with it next week | 00:55 |
superm1 | so long as it works right (and you're cool with the idea of putting that in the packages), i'll add it in | 00:55 |
bryce | I'm not really sure, I'd need to consider it more closely. I'd especially like to get timo's opinion on it. | 00:57 |
superm1 | ok, then its good i brought it up before just "doing that". i'll touch bases with you after i get a chance to make sure it works properly | 00:58 |
bryce | ok great | 00:59 |
tjaalton | bryce: cool, I should've done something for mesa, but didn't.. | 09:15 |
tjaalton | but there's life beyond .1 | 09:17 |
jcristau | superm1: that won't work i think, it'll load the '00fglrx' driver | 10:49 |
superm1 | jcristau, yeah that's what i was thinking too. perhaps it will have to be diverting the ati driver and using fglrx.ids then | 14:20 |
superm1 | i'll see what happens for me when i start to try it | 14:20 |
jcristau | ewww diversions | 14:21 |
