| wgrant | Well, that was remarkably painless. | 01:10 |

| tjaalton | tseliot: hi, do you have an idea why my box didn't build the nvidia module for .27-2 kernel? | 19:59 |
| tjaalton | on upgrade | 19:59 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: no, I don't. It happened to me too. | 20:01 |
| tjaalton | ah:) | 20:02 |
| tseliot | having a log would help | 20:03 |
| tseliot | s/would/might/ | 20:03 |
| tjaalton | it was a "partial upgrade" so nothing in term.log | 20:03 |
| tseliot | usually DKMS checks the availability of the module at boot too | 20:04 |
| tseliot | therefore if the module hadn't been built before it should have tried to build it at boot time | 20:05 |
| tseliot | a bug in DKMS? | 20:05 |
| tseliot | I'll ask superm1 | 20:05 |
| tjaalton | or maybe the kernel lacks something? | 20:07 |
| tjaalton | packaging | 20:07 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: all dkms needs is the headers and the compilers. Let's see if we can reproduce the problem, maybe with .27-3 | 20:22 |

| james_w | tseliot: https://launchpad.net/bugs/262027 <- could that be the reason that nvidia didn't build the updated modules? | 22:53 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 262027 in synaptic "Synaptic Erroneously Reports Success on Fail" [Undecided,New] | 22:53 |
| tseliot | james_w: yes, it can be that | 22:57 |
| james_w | I'm just talking to the user now, he's going to reassign the bug, as I don't think it's a bug in synaptic | 22:57 |
| tseliot | james_w: right | 23:09 |
| tormo1 | I have a hang here, maybe with compiz. I can ssh in and there's no CPU usage. Is it normal that compiz sits in finishScreenDrawing() ? | 23:16 |
| * tormo1 asks in #compiz also | 23:17 | |
| james_w | tseliot: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/260350 <- is that due to "Virtual" not being set? | 23:23 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 260350 in gnome-control-center "Intrepid Cannot change resolution on laptop with Intel gfx adapter" [Undecided,New] | 23:23 |
| james_w | sorry, I leave you in peace after this one. | 23:23 |
| tseliot | james_w: no problem ;) | 23:24 |
| tseliot | yes, setting the virtual resolution would be the solution | 23:25 |
| james_w | thanks, I'll mention that. | 23:25 |
| james_w | the current Intrepid packages will tell the user that? | 23:26 |
| james_w | and optionally do it if screen-resolution-extra is installed? | 23:26 |
| tseliot | james_w: no package will warn the user that he needs to set virtual to 2674x1080 | 23:27 |
| tseliot | screen-resolution-extra will do it for him/her after warning him/her | 23:27 |
| james_w | great, thanks | 23:29 |
| tseliot | you're welcome | 23:29 |
| james_w | I don't really know what to say to https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260069 so if someone here has an opinion I would appreciate it if you could add something to the report. | 23:33 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 260069 in gnome-control-center "gnome-display-properties does not display EDID info" [Undecided,New] | 23:33 |
| tseliot | james_w: it looks like something we should mark as wishlist | 23:36 |
| james_w | yeah, I agree, but I had no idea if it was something that's a good idea or a bad one | 23:37 |
| tseliot | that might be needed in some cases and nvidia-settings does it already. It's doable and can be useful. I would like to hear bryce's opinion on this though | 23:40 |
| tseliot | good night | 23:42 |
| * tseliot > bed | 23:42 | |
