| bryce | man, this AGPMode bug is pervasive | 00:23 |
|---|---|---|
| bryce | tjaalton: looks like we have a choice between stable 2.4.2 or gem-enabled 2.4.97.0 | 01:52 |
| jcristau | for a flickering value of stable ;) | 01:53 |
| pwnguin | heh | 04:50 |
| pwnguin | a bit of bugmail | 04:50 |
| pwnguin | apparently none of the bugs against wacom have invalid xorg.conf | 04:51 |
| tjaalton | every time you find the phrase "exact same problem" in a bugmail, stop reading.. | 07:29 |
| tjaalton | you'll just get annoyed at people | 07:29 |
| tjaalton | bryce: you mean they won't support 2.4.2 anymore? | 07:30 |
| tjaalton | btw, what is the intel vblank-support supposed to do? | 07:31 |
| tjaalton | (in drm) | 07:31 |
| bryce | not sure about the vblank | 07:36 |
| bryce | but yeah sounds like 2.4.2 is the last in the 2.4.x series | 07:36 |
| bryce | "exact same problem, except..." | 07:36 |
| bryce | or my favorite, "making it completely unusable" | 07:38 |
| tjaalton | hehe, yeah | 07:39 |
| wgrant | Fix it now or I'm going back to Windows. | 07:56 |
| bryce | ooh, nice wgrant | 07:58 |
| crevette | :) | 07:58 |
| bryce | futile attempts to extort a bugfix really wins points | 07:59 |
| bryce | another good one is "I did foo, and then X didn't work" | 08:00 |
| tjaalton | mvo: so you've been running the evdev snapshot for some time? | 08:37 |
| tjaalton | mvo: any issues with it? | 08:37 |
| mvo | hey tjaalton | 08:39 |
| mvo | no, works fine for me | 08:39 |
| mvo | i run in on my two main machines | 08:39 |
| tjaalton | mvo: ok cool. I'm just wondering if we should go for the snapshot or pull stuff on top of 2.0.4 | 08:41 |
| mvo | is there a release planned soon? | 08:44 |
| tjaalton | but looking at the commit diff, it's pretty clear that master doesn't have anything suspicious, mostly more properties supported etc | 08:44 |
| tjaalton | I'm not sure | 08:44 |
| tjaalton | I'll ask.. | 08:44 |
| tjaalton | maybe I'll just cheat in the meantime and pull master on top of 2.0.3 so there's no paperwork needed :P | 08:46 |
| tjaalton | or bump the version to 2.0.99 | 08:50 |
| mvo__ | tjaalton: sorry, network trouble - what was the last bit you said? | 08:57 |
| tjaalton | 10:44 < mvo> is there a release planned soon? | 08:58 |
| tjaalton | 10:44 < tjaalton> I'm not sure | 08:58 |
| tjaalton | 10:44 < tjaalton> I'll ask.. | 08:58 |
| tjaalton | 10:46 < tjaalton> maybe I'll just cheat in the meantime and pull master on top of 2.0.3 so there's no paperwork needed :P | 08:58 |
| tjaalton | 10:50 < tjaalton> or bump the version to 2.0.99 | 08:58 |
| Ng | tjaalton: yes please, do want newer evdev so I can do mvo's emulatescrollwheel trick :) | 09:26 |
| === mvo__ is now known as mvo | ||
| tjaalton | right, I need to sync the upload of hal/evdev/gnome-settings-daemon/xkb-data to make sure the keyboard rules/model mess is sorted out once and for all | 09:32 |
| tjaalton | since currently the model is forced as evdev, but that has problems with some exotic layouts.. so the solution is to force rules=evdev instead | 09:33 |
| tjaalton | then the patch from g-s-d can be dropped, and people can change the kb model again | 09:33 |
| tjaalton | and the evdev rule should be modified to support the exotic layouts etc | 09:34 |
| tjaalton | uh, somehow git utterly failed merging xkeyboard-config master | 09:54 |
| tjaalton | every changed file in conflict | 09:55 |
| bryce | <3 git | 09:55 |
| jcristau | you need to merge 1.3 first | 09:55 |
| tjaalton | jcristau: isn't that merged already? | 09:56 |
| * jcristau doesn't remember | 09:56 | |
| jcristau | i think not | 09:56 |
| jcristau | it was still using cvs at the time | 09:56 |
| tjaalton | ah, ok | 09:56 |
| tjaalton | wonder if Mohammed would mind me merging this in experimental too | 09:57 |
| jcristau | cvs keywords ftl though, they conflict the merge | 09:58 |
| jcristau | but iirc other than that it's trivial | 09:58 |
| tjaalton | yeah it looked trivial, simple substitutions and nothing else | 09:59 |
| tjaalton | k, merge done | 10:29 |
| tjaalton | guess all the .cvsignore files can be replaced with .gitignore | 10:31 |
| tjaalton | lunch -> | 10:32 |
| tjaalton | sigh, what a mess in xkeyboard-config.. I have no idea how these patches could apply before | 12:13 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: I have fixed nvidia-kernel-common a bit (lintian doesn't complain any more) and added didrocks' patch. Would you like to have a look at the new source? | 12:22 |
| tjaalton | tseliot: sure | 12:23 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: ok, here's a text file with the links: http://albertomilone.com/ubuntu/newlrm/nvk.txt | 12:23 |
| tjaalton | tseliot: anything specific I should be looking at? | 12:28 |
| tseliot | I have changed the debian/rules, control and removed some files | 12:29 |
| tjaalton | debdiff would probably be easier :) | 12:30 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: if you do a diff with the current version in ubuntu you will see all the changes | 12:30 |
| tseliot | yes | 12:30 |
| tjaalton | oh wait, I can do tha t myself | 12:30 |
| tjaalton | why didn't you merge with debian, they did most of the stuff already | 12:33 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: merge or sync? | 12:34 |
| tjaalton | merge | 12:34 |
| tseliot | I had a look at the debian package but I wasn't sure as to whether I wanted all the changes | 12:36 |
| tjaalton | well there is the debian version mentioned in preinst | 12:36 |
| tjaalton | if dpkg --compare-versions "$2" lt-nl '20051028+1+nmu2'; then | 12:36 |
| tseliot | yes, right | 12:37 |
| tseliot | it's not finished | 12:37 |
| tseliot | I have to go for lunch now. See you later | 12:37 |
| tjaalton | ok, ask again when it's finished :) | 12:38 |
| tjaalton | I don't see why it couldn't be merged first | 12:40 |
| tjaalton | there xkb-data pushed to git.. | 13:15 |
| tjaalton | +, | 13:15 |
| tjaalton | didn't feel like autoreconf'ing it | 13:15 |
| jcristau | tjaalton: haha. you got to discover the xkb-data disaster :) | 13:52 |
| jcristau | tjaalton: deleting the generated files from the source package and generating them cleanly on build would probably help | 13:54 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: I did the merge: http://albertomilone.com/ubuntu/newlrm/nvidia-kernel-common_20051028+1+nmu2ubuntu1.debdiff | 15:22 |
| tseliot | but I haven't attached the debdiff to the bugreport yet | 15:24 |
| tseliot | federico1: how do you suggest that I apply the settings with the capplet with a .desktop file on login? | 17:41 |
| tseliot | BTW I have implemented this new feature even though my patches still need some polish | 17:41 |
| federico1 | tseliot: do you actually need a .desktop file? if you set a flag somewhere, gnome-settings-daemon could notice that flag at startup and reconfigure the screens | 17:42 |
| tseliot | federico1: ok, I could modify the gnome-settings-daemon but I don't know if I can check that the outputs haven't changed in the settings daemon | 17:44 |
| tseliot | and we don't want it to apply the settings if the outputs have changed (e.g. if in the meantime you have swapped the external monitor with another,etc.) | 17:45 |
| federico1 | tseliot: you may need to change the API in gnome-desktop a bit so that it can save without applying. Then you can compare the loaded configuration with the current one, with gnome_rr_config_match() | 17:49 |
| tseliot | federico1: yes, that's what I did in xrandr-capplet.c and libgnome-desktop/gnome-rr-config.c | 17:50 |
| tseliot | federico1: but currently I make it save the settings to another xml file if the capplet can't apply the settings | 17:50 |
| federico1 | tseliot: ah, ok | 17:51 |
| federico1 | tseliot: then you can make gnome-settings-daemon see if that file exists. If it does, match() it to the current screens and see if it's possible to use it | 17:52 |
| tseliot | federico1: do you know which file I should modify in the gnome-settings-daemon? | 17:54 |
| federico1 | tseliot: gsd-xrandr-manager.c | 17:58 |
| federico1 | gnome-settings-daemon/plugins/xrandr/gsd-xrandr-manager.c | 17:59 |
| tseliot | federico1: aah, it's in plugins. Thanks | 18:00 |
| tseliot | federico1: ok, I guess I'll have to play a bit with gnome_rr_config_apply_stored() in gsd_xrandr_manager_start(). I should get something working soon | 18:04 |
| federico1 | tseliot: yeah, it shouldn't be hard... g-s-d is a bit of a PITA to debug, but that's like any startup program | 18:06 |
| tseliot | heh, right | 18:06 |
| * tseliot > dinner. bbl | 18:09 | |
| tjaalton | jcristau: yeah, I wonder why anything with xkb in the name is shite | 18:58 |
| tjaalton | tseliot: that's more like it. ready to go :) | 18:58 |
| tseliot | tjaalton: great | 18:59 |
| jcristau | tjaalton: btw, feel free to revert my videoabiver bump, it's not like the abi has actually changed, and i guess it would be a pita for you | 19:44 |
| === dereck is now known as Awsoonn_ | ||
| Awsoonn_ | I am having issues with an ATI Radeon 7000, it has duel heads; the screen resolution tool can detect both of my monitors, but when I apply nothing useful happens | 20:02 |
| Awsoonn_ | It is using the opensource driver, and there are no appernt options to use the blob | 20:03 |
| tjaalton | jcristau: ok, although soon we should be able to just sync them from experimental ;) | 20:41 |
| tjaalton | Awsoonn: there are some issues in the tool on intrepid | 20:42 |
| tjaalton | with | 20:42 |
| bryce | Awsoonn: probably you need to adjust your Virtual setting in xorg.conf | 20:48 |
| bryce | Awsoonn: are you on Intrepid? | 20:48 |
| tjaalton | ah, that incarnation left already | 20:48 |
| tjaalton | 22:29 -!- Awsoonn_ [n=dereck@oscar.lssu.edu] has quit ["Lost terminal"] | 20:49 |
| bryce | I've put the AGPMode quirking patch into our -ati for testing - http://bryceharrington.org/ubuntu/Ati/ | 20:52 |
| bryce | I need to refresh my ati test box to test it. If anyone else has a system they could check it on too it'd be appreciated | 20:53 |
| tjaalton | I'll probably upgrade my VDR box later this year, and it could end up being an AMD box.. so can't test just yet ;) | 20:57 |
| bdmurray | bryce: I've finished tagging xorg.conf files | 23:14 |
| bdmurray | I checked every package at https://bugs.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+packagebugs | 23:16 |
| bryce | bdmurray: excellent, thanks | 23:19 |
| bdmurray | only 8 invalid though :( | 23:19 |
| bryce | still good to know. I'll go through those 8 when I get some time | 23:21 |
| bdmurray | hunh | 23:22 |
| bdmurray | might have missed a few | 23:22 |
| bdmurray | There are 67 files that end with 'org.conf' for example 'fglx_xorg.conf' | 23:22 |
| bryce | ahh | 23:22 |
| bdmurray | and 'working-xorg.conf' | 23:22 |
| bdmurray | I guess I'll get back to you ;) | 23:23 |
| bdmurray | heh - diff.xorg.conf seems to be a false positive | 23:45 |
| bdmurray | bryce: Maybe I should check compiz bugs too? | 23:49 |
