tjaaltonwgrant: toss me the url once you're done00:22
tjaaltonx11perf -a10text has gone from ~55k on intrepid to ~91k with the new xserver, and ~145k with the new xserver & kernel 2.6.2800:46
tjaaltonwgrant: I'm wondering if the problem would go away with the new xserver00:47
tjaalton[ 1433.531017] irq 16: nobody cared (try booting with the "irqpoll" option)01:10
tjaaltonthat makes my machine really slow, since i915 was using that irq01:11
wgrantIt's perfectly fast for me.01:18
tjaaltonprobably hw related01:18
tjaaltonsomething crashes and as a result that irq gets disabled01:19
wgrantI used to have that.01:20
wgrantBut with .28 I don't.01:20
wgrant(the 'nobody cared')01:20
tjaaltonyeah :)01:20

ubottuFreedesktop bug 19037 in App/xrandr "Some libxrandr 1.2.99.2 requests cause hugely repeated EDID requests" [Major,New]17:23
tjaaltonalbert23: oh, cool17:23
tjaaltonI didn't know it was reported17:23
tjaaltonI'll mark mine as a dupe then17:23
albert23tjaalton: FWIW, I have no problems with the libxrandr update with server 1.6beta217:25
tjaaltonI didn't have either17:26
tjaaltonwith 1.5/1.6beta17:26
tjaaltonalbert23: btw, you are using the 'us' layout right?17:46
tjaaltonwith the new server17:46
albert23tjaalton: yes, us/intl17:47
tjaaltonalbert23: ok, so you are not seeing fdo bug 1904817:48

tjaaltonalthough you could test it :)17:48
albert23tjaalton: no, my keyboard is mostly ok.17:52
albert23But I do have miising keycodes in xsession-errors17:52
albert23tjaalton: switching to Nederlands seems to work fine.18:01
tjaaltondon't do that from the gui, that works18:02
tjaaltonyou need to set  it in /etc/default/console-setup, restart hal & gdm and see what's used in the gdm login screen18:02
tjaaltonand check the Xorg.0.log that the driver is using the layout18:03
albert23Tjaalton: after reboot GDM is still US. X-log and setxkbmap say I have Nederlands18:08
tjaaltonalbert23: touché18:08
tjaaltonso it's not just me :)18:08
tjaaltonhmm, I could git-bisect it18:08
albert23tjaalton: isn't gdm doing this? i.e. /etc/gdm/Xsession tries to set the keyboard map if ~/.Xkbmap exists. But I don't have ~/.Xkbmap.18:22
tjaaltonme neither18:22
tjaaltonbesides it's the login screen18:23
tjaaltonso it's using the system defaults18:23
wgranttjaalton: Sorry, quickly-flattening battery and dodgy hotel wireless == not often checking IRC.19:26
tjaaltonwgrant: heh, no worries19:29
tjaaltonI'll upload the xserver to my ppa soonish, so jesse can start working on backporting intel modesetting :)19:30
wgrantOoh shiny.19:31
tjaaltonyes, apparently the backporting was accepted19:31
tjaaltonkeybuk just asked me the status of the intel driver19:32
wgrantOh, I thought it was decided to keep the kernel in a PPA.19:33
wgrantANd not backport KMS to .28...19:33
wgrantBut I wasn't in the session.19:33
tjaaltonthis is probably newer information19:33
wgrantExcellent.19:34
tjaaltonyeah, I'm happy, since KMS support is so cool19:34
tjaaltonI've switched my gdm to vt1 already :Å19:34
wgrantYep.19:34
wgrantPlymouth!19:35
tjaaltonum, :P19:35
wgrantAha.19:35
wgrantI have to mount my filesystems and do other booting stuff manually now, so I don't see the point.19:35
tjaaltonwell, you don't have gdm running yet, right?19:36
wgrantRight.19:37
tjaaltonso it shouldn't cause any pain if that was to happen :)19:38
wgrantRight, but is there any benefit?19:38
tjaaltonless flicker19:38
tjaaltonoh, and we get to follow fedora19:38
wgrantI see.19:38
tjaaltonwell, maybe the benefit of doing so isn't that great when we still use usplash19:43
tjaaltonsince it'll be flickery for all users19:48
tjaaltonhmm, I'll package intel-2.6-branch on my ppa as well20:13
wgranttjaalton: That has KMS and DRI2?20:21
tjaaltonwgrant: right20:22
tjaaltonmight make jesses work a bit easier20:22
wgrantWhen are we getting server 1.6 branch?20:23
tjaaltonwhen the layout bug is fixed20:23
tjaaltonthe ppa will have it though20:24
tjaaltonthere20:28
tjaaltonhum, intel wants a newer libdrm too, of course21:00
tjaaltonwell, lunch21:00
tormodtjaalton, arel you gonna push your mesa changes to git.d.o ?22:13
tjaaltontormod: sorry, done22:14
tormodoh thanks!22:14
tjaaltontormod: I've uploaded the new xorg-server to my ppa22:15
tjaaltonand pushed the git changes now22:15
tormodcool, but the keymapping on 1.6 is still broken right?22:15
tjaaltonthe ppa branch is a local one, but essentially only the changelog has changed22:15
tjaaltonright22:15
tjaaltonotherwise it would be on the main archive22:15
tjaalton:)22:15
tormodyour intel mentioned above, that's 2.5.1 right?22:16
tjaaltontormod: no, the 2.6-branch22:17
tormodI will make an intel-testing PPA and backport drm and intel for Hardy and intrepid, but not tonight, going skiing early tomorrow.22:17
tjaaltonwanted to push that to my ppa, but it'd need a newer libdrm22:17
tjaaltonheh, have fun22:17
tormodyeah 2.4.222:17
tormodare you thinking of 2.6 in Jaunty soon?22:18
tjaaltonwell I'd like to have a libdrm release first22:18
tormodI have 2.6 (and 2.4.2ish) in xorg-edgers ppa22:19
tjaaltonwhich is basically required because otherwise intel would be upset22:19
tjaaltonok, cool22:19
tormodoh btw that's 2.4.2 + modesetting-gem, but apparently that's too buggy22:20
tormodI will revert to 2.4.2 + the modesetting patch from Jesse on dri-devel22:20
tormod(if I get time before he commits it to master)22:20
tjaaltonwell eric commented that already, and there are some issues but not necessarily in functionality22:21
tormodalso I instruct people to compile drm modules to match libdrm, but I think that's wrong or not needed at this point. libdrm/linux-core is not up to date for some reason.22:22
tjaaltonthey've changed the release process, so linux-core status is a bit unclear to me22:24
tormodshouldn't they either ditch or update it?22:25
tjaaltonprobably :)22:25
