| Q-FUNK | how do we solve the nsc+geode situation on Hardy? | 10:03 |
|---|---|---|
| Q-FUNK | I have yet another user confirming that the only way to get this to work on LTSP is to purge the transitional package that contains the symbolic links between geode_drv.so and amd_drv.so | 10:04 |
| Q-FUNK | this essentialy requires backporting what I have in my PPA for xserver-xorg-core, -geode and -nsc | 10:09 |
| sebner | heya guys. A nvidia update (2.6.26 support) planned in the near future? | 11:13 |
| Q-FUNK | is 2.6.26 even out yet? | 11:17 |
| Q-FUNK | last night, it was still RC | 11:17 |
| sebner | Q-FUNK: so we wait until the final kernel is out? | 11:18 |
| tseliot | sebner: an update for the driver in Intrepid or in Hardy? | 11:35 |
| sebner | tseliot: intrepid. since the new kernel 2.6.26(rc) is in intrepid only ;) | 11:36 |
| tseliot | sebner: I'm working on it | 11:37 |
| tseliot | we'll have 4 flavours for the NVIDIA driver | 11:37 |
| tseliot | and the lrm will be removed | 11:37 |
| sebner | tseliot: great. only the newest has 2.6.26 support I heard. any estimated time? | 11:38 |
| tseliot | sebner: I've got patches for the other flavours for kernel 2.6.26. I have to make sure that the upgrade from Hardy to Intrepid doesn't cause problems, therefore I'll have to test the new packages carefully | 11:39 |
| sebner | tseliot: I see. Thanks for the info =) | 11:39 |
| tseliot | the packages, apart from the debian/control files are complete | 11:39 |
| sebner | tseliot: Ah cool, you are alberto milone. Didn't know that =) Also used envy. great work! | 11:41 |
| tseliot | yes, it's me ;) | 11:42 |
| bryce | tjaalton: btw DebianImportFreeze is coming up 1 week from now | 20:17 |
| tjaalton | bryce: hi! yes I noticed. that only means more manual labor for us :) | 20:44 |
| tjaalton | bryce: btw, I pushed the xorg-server merge yesterday. I dropped some patches that we had for no apparent reason, but we can dissect those again before we upload | 20:48 |
| bryce | tjaalton: excellent | 20:48 |
| bryce | tjaalton: fortunately we're all caught up with merges except for xorg and xorg-server | 20:48 |
| bryce | oh and a new -intel | 20:48 |
| tjaalton | yeah | 20:48 |
| bryce | do we need to do anything special with -i810 anymore? e.g. drop something from the archive...? | 20:49 |
| tjaalton | drop it... | 20:49 |
| tjaalton | the merge is a tad easier after that | 20:49 |
| bryce | how do we go about dropping it? | 20:49 |
| tjaalton | there should be no reason to keep it any more | 20:50 |
| bryce | is there such a thing as a de-MIR? | 20:50 |
| pwnguin | heh | 20:50 |
| tjaalton | file a bug and subscribe ubuntu-archive | 20:50 |
| bryce | ok | 20:50 |
| tjaalton | "remove from the archive" | 20:50 |
| tjaalton | etc | 20:50 |
| tjaalton | (laggy gprs shite) | 20:50 |
| * bryce files | 20:51 | |
| bryce | btw, do we need to do the same for -amd now that -geode is present? | 20:52 |
| tjaalton | oh man, this is cool.. listening to the GER-POR from the radio, irc'ing with the laptop and enjoying the bright evening with a carlsberg :P | 20:52 |
| tjaalton | *match | 20:52 |
| tjaalton | bryce: hum, I'm not sure, q-funk should know better | 20:53 |
| bryce | ok | 20:53 |
| bryce | what's GER-POR? | 20:53 |
| pwnguin | german ... | 20:53 |
| tjaalton | sorry, germany vs. portugal... soccer match :) | 20:53 |
| pwnguin | GOAAAAL | 20:54 |
| tjaalton | football for us europeans | 20:54 |
| tjaalton | ssssh, not yet | 20:54 |
| tjaalton | actually, it's 2-1 | 20:54 |
| pwnguin | so what is the official deal with nvidia on intrepid? | 20:55 |
| bryce | ahh | 20:58 |
| bryce | pwnguin: hmm? | 20:59 |
| tjaalton | pwnguin: it's split from lrm, and held in separate packages | 20:59 |
| tjaalton | DKSM | 20:59 |
| tjaalton | ftw | 20:59 |
| tjaalton | uh | 20:59 |
| tjaalton | DKSM.. | 20:59 |
| tjaalton | wtf | 20:59 |
| tjaalton | my eyes hurt me | 21:00 |
| tjaalton | was it DKMS?? :) | 21:00 |
| pwnguin | sound right | 21:00 |
| pwnguin | dell kernel module system | 21:01 |
| tseliot | it's DKMS | 21:01 |
| tseliot | pwnguin: we have 4 flavours for NVIDIA | 21:01 |
| tseliot | and I'm working on them | 21:02 |
| tseliot | I have contacted BenC since none of them builds | 21:02 |
| pwnguin | did we unwrap modprobe? | 21:02 |
| bryce | tjaalton: btw both OOo and Xubuntu are seeing major libxcb-related problems | 21:02 |
| bryce | tjaalton: I upstreamed the former; the latter was already upstreamed but it appears the fix for it was incomplete | 21:02 |
| bryce | tjaalton: so I'm having them do some re-testing, and then will re-upstream if appropriate | 21:03 |
| tseliot | pwnguin: I mean, because the kernel is Xen-enabled. BenC will work on that. | 21:03 |
| tseliot | pwnguin: do you refer to lrm-video? | 21:03 |
| pwnguin | Amaranth has a patch | 21:03 |
| bryce | lp: #87947, lp #185311, fdo: 16420 | 21:04 |
| tseliot | pwnguin: for what? If it's for Xen, those patches don't work | 21:04 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 185311 in libxcb "hardy, locking assertion failure, xorg/libsdl" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/185311 | 21:04 |
| tjaalton | tseliot: amaranth had a patch for it.. | 21:05 |
| tjaalton | 03:59 #ubuntu-devel: < Amaranth> tjaalton: with http://www.realistanew.com/random/xen.patch the 173.14.09 nvidia module will build against the 2.6.26-1 kernel | 21:06 |
| pwnguin | tseliot: if theres a bug somewhere, maybe that will be faster than re-explaining evreything to me | 21:06 |
| tjaalton | bryce: ok. Maybe try the handoff-patches from March (on xcb-list) | 21:07 |
| tseliot | pwnguin: ok, I'll try it now | 21:07 |
| tjaalton | don't know if they help or not.. | 21:07 |
| tjaalton | bryce: with those, it should never fail on locking | 21:08 |
| pwnguin | sh: /sbin/lrm-video: not found | 21:08 |
| pwnguin | FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia | 21:08 |
| bryce | tjaalton: yeah I worked on patching those in yesterday, but they don't apply to our released version, and aren't in git | 21:08 |
| bryce | (afaik) | 21:08 |
| tjaalton | duh | 21:09 |
| bryce | I'll see if calc can validate the debian patch, and if not will see about hammering those patches into libxcb or something | 21:09 |
| tjaalton | k, upstream should wake up eventually | 21:10 |
| tjaalton | those patches should be merged | 21:11 |
| tjaalton | hmm | 21:11 |
| tjaalton | there's a tv next door, so maybe I'll go there to see the rest of the match.. | 21:11 |
| tseliot | pwnguin: it's the same patch I had. Sorry but it doesn't work. The patch works in Hardy but it doesn't in Intrepid | 21:12 |
| tjaalton | which means that I'll be offline for some time ;) | 21:12 |
| tjaalton | see you -> | 21:12 |
| bryce | cya tjaalton | 21:15 |
| tjaalton | ok, back again :) | 22:02 |
| bryce | how'd your team do? | 22:02 |
| tjaalton | germany won 3-2, but I didn't really have a favourite | 22:04 |
| tjaalton | but I did bet that germany would win the tournament, so.. | 22:08 |
| tjaalton | hm, time to go to bed. have a nice Midsummer ;) | 22:39 |
| pwnguin | bryce: how would you describe your involvement in inkscape | 23:26 |
| pwnguin | ? | 23:26 |
| pwnguin | Developer? | 23:28 |
| pwnguin | founder? | 23:28 |
| bryce | pwnguin: founder | 23:46 |
| bryce | pwnguin: I also am fairly involved in organizing releases and qa activities. I haven't really done much development since joining canonical. | 23:47 |
