ubottuLaunchpad bug 87661 in mesa "[apport] polytopes crashed with SIGILL in _mesa_x86_64_transform_points4_perspective()" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/8766121:57
bryceno, thanks.  21:58
bryceI've re-upped -evdev21:58
bdmurrayit looks like its fixed upstream now21:58
bryceyep22:09
bdmurraybryce: did anybody ask about bug 277452?22:23
ubottuLaunchpad bug 277452 in xorg-server "Ubuntu 8.10 Beta won`t start" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/27745222:23
brycebdmurray: no not so far22:38
bryceerf, log.rar??  /me dislikes it when people archive up their logs22:39
bdmurraylet alone a rar22:40
bdmurraythere's another nv bug that might be related but the pci id is different22:41
bryceyeah and there's just a single file in it, so it's not even a workaround of lp's one-attachment-at-a-time issue22:41
bdmurraybryce: they said alpha 6 worked for them though...22:56
brycehmm22:59
brycewell I'm pretty sure we didn't rev -nv between alpha6 and now23:00
bdmurrayI've found another bug 277473, with pci id 10de:053123:00
ubottuLaunchpad bug 277473 in xserver-xorg-video-nv "intrepid: couldn't start x server when using liveCD to run system directly and  intall (nvidia)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/27747323:00
brycehmm23:02
brycewell, that's certainly true, but the error messages on both bugs indicate an unsupported chip.  odd23:03
bdmurrayI think there are a few more lying around too23:10
brycebdmurray: are they all the same chipset?23:19
bdmurrayno they are not exactly the same23:20
brycehmm, well -nv hasn't changed since July23:20
bdmurrayYeah, I see that23:20
bdmurrayIs there a list of devices supported by a driver somewhere?23:21
bryceyeah looking for that now23:22
bryceit's in nv_driver.c23:22
bryceok, regarding bug #277452, which has 0x10de07e3, that''s not listed in nv_driver.c23:23
ubottuLaunchpad bug 277452 in xserver-xorg-video-nv "-nv doesn't support 0x10de07e3 (GeForce 7050/nForce 610i)" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/27745223:23
brycelemme look in git23:24
brycethere's a 2.1.12 of the driver23:25
brycealthough 0x10de07e3 still is not listed23:25
bdmurrayhmm, is there just a lot of hardware that isn't supported yet?23:26
brycesame thing with 27747323:27
bryceprobably23:27
bryce-nv development is sloooowww23:27
bryceso, bdmurray, basically you can just get either the pci id like 10de07e3, or the model name like 7150M, and do a grep -sir in the -nv source tree, and if nothing prints, then it's unsupported hardware23:28
bryce2.1.12 only adds one new supported chip23:31
bryce+  { 0x10DE0640, "GeForce 9500 GT" },23:31
bryceer wait23:31
brycemy bad, there's a bunch actually23:32
brycehttp://pastebin.ubuntu.com/53566/23:33
brycebdmurray: if you spot bug reports for any of those, let me know and I can fix them23:33
brycefor any other than that, we'll just have to suggest they use -vesa or -nvidia for now23:33
bdmurrayShould the Live CD fallback to -vesa?23:34
bryceyeah I think so23:35
bdmurraya lot of these are Live CD problems...23:41
