wgrantbryce: Shouldn't you be asking people to try with Intrepid?10:30
wgrantbryce: Development ISOs aren't likely to be very good right now.10:30
tjaaltonand no x related updates there either10:33
tjaaltonbut maybe it'll take 1-2 months for the people to test, so then there'll be some alpha available .)10:34

wgrantHeh.10:43
wgrantOhhhh.10:55
wgrantDamn tablets.10:55
wgrantDamn users, too.10:56
wgrantIt seems that the Synaptics stuff to gnome-settings-daemon10:56
wgrantBah.10:56
wgrantit seems that the Synaptics stuff in gnome-settings-daemon causes a DevicePresenceNotify storm when there's a bad Wacom device entry.10:57
wgrantProbably because it initially tries to set the properties on startup, so tries to open the device, which causes X to look for it again, which causes it to send a DevicePresenceNotify, because the device didn't previously exist because /dev/input/wacom doesn't exist.10:58
wgrantMeanwhile the device has already disappeared again, so the device open attempt brings it back.10:58
wgrantAlso filling Xorg.0.log very, very quickly.10:59
tjaaltonhehe11:04
wgrantAt least I can reproduce it now.11:18

tseliotjcristau: I'm trying to compile a small program which uses xcb but I'm getting an error. Any ideas? http://pastebin.com/d42d7a6ea11:44
wgranttseliot: libxcb-randr is a separate lib with a separate .pc11:51
wgrantxcb-randr, unsurprisingly enough.11:51
tseliotwgrant: ah, right11:52
tseliot gcc -Wall xrandr-xcb.c -o xrandr-xcb `pkg-config --cflags --libs xcb-renderutil xcb-randr xcb-aux` did it11:53
wgrantExcellent.11:53
* wgrant also seems to have solved that g-s-d bug.11:53
tseliot\o/11:54
wgrantDeviceEnabled vs. DeviceAdded isn't well documented, except in the server code.11:54
wgranttseliot: Is Envy still meant to be used on Intrepid?12:16
tseliotwgrant: envyng-core and envyng-qt12:17
wgranttseliot: OK, so that would be a yes. Thanks.12:18

sbeattiebryce: are you auto-spamming bugs now? I hardly think I need to provide lspci info for https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfonts-utils/+bug/274266 a bug in a manpage17:09
ubottuLaunchpad bug 274266 in xfonts-utils "update-fonts-dir(8) manpage needs updating" [Low,Incomplete] 17:09
jcristausbeattie: care to write a patch for the manpage?17:28
brycesbeattie: yes I'm auto-spamming17:35
rzrhi22:51
wgrantHi rzr.22:52
rzris ~tormodvolden here sometimes ?22:53
wgrantI've not seen him speaking, but he might lurk.22:54
rzrunder which nickname ?22:54
wgrantI have no clue.22:58
wgrantrzr: ^^22:58
rzrthx anyway22:59
tjaaltonrzr: 'tormod'23:00
rzroki makes sense23:01
bryce_heya23:12
wgrantHi bryce_. You had a lot of fun spamming, I see23:17
bryce_wgrant: I did23:21
bryce_so far managed to get a few dozen confirmations of bugs fixed too23:21
bryce_well, fixed or hw no longer available23:22
wgrantAnd I finally got something more useful than "me too" out of people experiencing that damn g-s-d issue. It's like users are deliberately blocking it.23:22
wgrantRight, I closed a couple this morning as well.23:22
wgrantAnd in 60 days you can close lots more!23:22
bryce_yep23:22
bryce_I didn't keep a precise count, but there were over 400 New bugs moved to Incomplete23:22
wgrantOh, nice.23:22
wgrantI just noticed my bugs/x folder rapidly approaching my bugs folder in number of messages.23:23
bryce_wgrant: let me run this next idea past you23:27
bryce_what do you think of this.  the next launchpad spam idea I have is to automatically move New bugs with Xorg.0.log + lspci, or Xorg.0.log + backtrace -> Confirmed23:28
wgrantbryce_: I think a tag might be better for that.23:28
bryce_I could tag them as well, but the point is to get them out of New state.23:30
wgrantHmm, good point.23:30
wgrantI guess moving to Confirmed automatically and Triaged manually would be a reasonable workaround.23:31
wgrantSo that would work.23:31
* bryce_ nods23:32
bryce_ok, switching to my other wireless ap.  brb23:34
wgrantFor fixing a regression in -proposed, do I attach the debdiff to the original or regression bug?23:34
wgrant10:34:11 < wgrant> For fixing a regression in -proposed, do I attach the debdiff to the original or regression bug?23:48
brycethe regression bug23:49
wgrantGreat, thanks.23:49
brycewell, either is probably fine23:49
bryceI'd do the regression bug though.  easier to track.  Cross reference them for the release manager's convenience.23:50
wgrantYep.23:50
