| gigatropolis | #ubuntu asked me to come here because it's an intreped package | 02:11 |

| RAOF | There's an "ignore EDID" thingy in there. | 07:11 |
| DanaG | I don't want to entirely override it, though -- that'd make it hard to connect an EDID monitor. | 07:11 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, what does the "Shadows" plugin do? | 07:12 |
| RAOF | No idea. | 07:12 |
| DanaG | For me, it did exactly nothing. | 07:12 |
| DanaG | ... and bicubic applies a blur across the whole screen, as if it's the final step in rendering. | 07:13 |
| DanaG | (though below Benchmark thingy.) | 07:13 |
| DanaG | Aah, actually, it's the last on-desktop rendering effect. | 07:13 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, have you seen the new HP Touchsmart thingy? | 07:21 |
| DanaG | I've checked out Device Manager on one in a store, and it seems the touchscreen appears as several USB HID devices. | 07:21 |
| DanaG | I couldn't tell which were the touchscreen.... but when you see one mouse and one keyboard, an MCE remote (2 or 3 HID devices), and perhaps about 10 total, you can still figure it out. | 07:22 |

| * DanaG wonders about MPX and Intrepid. | 07:28 | |
| pwnguin | i dont think so | 07:31 |
| pwnguin | phoronix is editorializing that xorg is falling apart | 07:32 |
| RAOF | In what way? | 07:35 |
| pwnguin | releases falling back | 07:36 |
| pwnguin | features getting dropped | 07:36 |
| pwnguin | certainly, input hotplug has been a looooong time in coming | 07:38 |
| RAOF | And is currently breaking our X :) | 07:40 |
| DanaG | NVIDIA 71 is broken due to ABI change. :( | 07:43 |
| DanaG | And nv is slow as molasses. | 07:43 |
| pwnguin | well, my wireless is broked currently =/ | 07:44 |
| RAOF | nouveau is faster than molasses, or should be. | 07:45 |
| pwnguin | what's left holding nouveau from ubuntu? | 07:46 |
| RAOF | A libdrm snapshot. | 07:46 |
| pwnguin | what's the deal with libdrm | 07:46 |
| RAOF | I'm _still_ not going to replace the bottom of the free 3d stack with a snapshot :) | 07:47 |
| pwnguin | its been like this for quite some time | 07:47 |
| RAOF | libdrm is somewhat crazy at the moment, with the TTM vs GEM vs kernel mode-setting fun. | 07:47 |
| RAOF | It has, yes. | 07:47 |
| pwnguin | do they even have a plan to resolve the problem? | 07:48 |
| pwnguin | it's a bit frustrating; i mean, is there any question that nouveau is better than nv currently | 07:49 |
| pwnguin | ? | 07:49 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, will kernel mode-setting give native-resolution framebuffer? | 07:52 |
| RAOF | Yes. | 07:52 |
| DanaG | At least with open-source FB drivers. | 07:52 |
| DanaG | nvidiafb clashes with nvidia binary. | 07:52 |
| RAOF | pwnguin: There isn't really much question that nouveau is better than nv on < nv5x. | 07:52 |
| DanaG | does radeonfb clash with flgrx? Does it clash with radeon / radeonhd? | 07:53 |
| DanaG | Oh yeah, the nvidia 71 box I have is a laptop with a GeForce 420 Go (GeForce 2 renamed to GeForce 4, but somehow deserves GeForce4 drivers). | 07:53 |
| DanaG | My current GeForce Go 7600 laptop doesn't have any native-res FB modes. :( | 07:56 |

| jblack | So, I'm having a odd problme with dualheading. This started on hardy (which I'm no longer on). Last week, my second monitor started to blink every time I start a new window. The problem exists under Intrepid as well. | 10:30 |
| RAOF | jblack: There's at least one existing bug on Launchpad, filed against xorg-server, I believe. | 10:31 |
| jblack | start up a new gnome-terminal, and the 22" lcd blanks for about 3/4 of a second. | 10:31 |
| RAOF | It seems that various things trigger load-detect, which makes things blink. | 10:31 |
| jblack | That gives me something to chase down. Thanks for the hint. =) | 10:31 |
| jblack | I think this is it right here. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nv/+bug/245383 , though I'm not using the nv driver. | 10:32 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 245383 in xserver-xorg-video-nv "Screen flickers when loading applications" [Undecided,New] | 10:32 |
| RAOF | jblack: I'm pretty sure there's one on xorg-server; it seems common to all drivers, and is likely to be something to do with xrandr support. | 10:34 |
| datawhore | lol | 10:37 |
| jblack | That may be. Things go pretty.... wild when I turn the external lcd monitor on/off with xrandr. | 10:40 |
| jblack | For lack of a better phrase, I'd call it resizing stuttering/epilepsy. =) | 10:40 |
| jblack | I'll look for a better bug under xorg-server or xrander to file under | 10:41 |

| vincent_ | Hi everybody. Can someone give me a link where it is explained ("officialy") how to upgrade to Kubuntu Intrepid ? | 12:58 |

| vega-- | that's probably the latest.. | 13:20 |
| vincent_ | I have already tried that, but it doesn't work. | 13:21 |
| JontheEchidna | Hmm, that would only work if Intrepid were out "for real" | 13:22 |
| vincent_ | I remember in one previous version that we had to add a line in the source.lst file, but I can't find anything about Intrepid. | 13:22 |
| vincent_ | Yes, I know. | 13:22 |
| vega-- | use update-manager -c -d ? | 13:23 |
| vincent_ | Already tried. | 13:23 |
| vega-- | that worked for me, although not using kubuntu | 13:23 |
| vincent_ | It works in Ubuntu but not in Kubuntu. | 13:24 |
| JontheEchidna | I think I used | 13:24 |
| vega-- | tough luck :) | 13:24 |
| JontheEchidna | do-release-upgrade -d | 13:24 |
| vincent_ | I like trying develoment versions and I was feeling like trying the upgrade process. | 13:24 |

| Hew | gnomefreak: "This theme will not look as intended because the required GTK+ theme 'Human' is not installed. | 14:09 |

| Hew | gnomefreak: Are you running Intrepid? Can you check your appearance preferences dialog? | 14:10 |

| gnomefreak | Hew: i am but i cant i have too much going on atm | 14:10 |
| Hew | gnomefreak: no worries if you can't, but it just involves looking at appearance preferences and seeing if the "Human" titlebar is blue or orange/brown | 14:11 |
| gnomefreak | Hew: i have 3 packages building atm and memory is getting very low inturn slowing pc down way too much | 14:12 |

| afflux | Hew: no, looks as intended. | 14:26 |
| afflux | well, I've to admit that I'm not on the latest updates | 14:26 |
