bryceheh, well that's better than not having any!03:54
tjaaltonyeah, the sfo-heathrow flight felt short, since I slept most of it03:55
tjaaltonthe TSA decided to remove three spraycans from my luggage, that was not so cool03:58

bryceterri's excited because she gets off from school04:09
tjaaltonif only we had that rule as well :)04:10
tjaalton"no exams, have fun!"04:10
bryceone year when I was in college at USC in Los Angeles we got out of exams on account of the city devolving into rioting04:12
tjaaltonhaha, excuses04:14
tjaaltonjust kidding, I remember those04:14
tjaaltonbryce: so, if the layout patch proves to work, should we push for alpha2?06:41
tjaaltonbuilding it now06:41
bryce__tjaalton: yep definitely06:43
tjaaltonbryce__: hum, seems that the new sighandler-patch broke the build06:44
tjaalton./.libs/libosandcommon.a(xf86Events.o): In function `xf86SigHandler':06:45
tjaalton/tmp/buildd/xorg-server-1.5.99.3/obj-i486-linux-gnu/hw/xfree86/common/../../../../hw/xfree86/common/xf86Events.c:408: undefined reference to `SigAbortDDX'06:45
tjaaltonI'll push what I have so you can have a look06:46
tjaaltonI'll test without 13506:48
bryce__ok06:48
bryce__tjaalton: yeah I expected some of this code has changed so I'll need to update the patch for 1.6.  I'll review it after the upload06:49
superm1bryce__, here's that pic if you want to compare your diagram to the real one: http://picasaweb.google.com/superm1/Misc#527990523927666757006:49
tjaaltonbryce__: should I drop it for now?06:49
bryce__tjaalton: leave it there but commented out I guess06:50
tjaaltonbryce__: that's the intent06:51
bryce__superm1: cool thanks06:53
tjaaltonyep, the layout-patch works07:31
tjaaltonbryce__: ok, uploading now09:33
bryce__tjaalton: thanks09:39
tjaaltonbryce__: drivers uploaded too, but not the binary ones. tseliot/superm1 might want to check those first10:59
tjaaltonsweet, half of them fail to build :P11:28
tjaaltontrivial changes needed but still11:28
tjaaltongrr, every damn input driver fails to build, apart from evdev/synaptics/wacom13:47
tjaaltonand not all of them have fixes upstream13:48
brycetjaalton: erf17:14
tjaaltonbryce: well, vmmouse is the only driver not built that actually matters, the rest are in universe17:20
brycetjaalton: ahhh17:21
brycetjaalton: ok if you could file a bug about vmmouse assigned to me, I will take care of that one later when I get time.17:21
tjaaltonand vmmouse probably needs the same commit as -mouse, since they share a lot17:21
tjaaltonthe build failure was similas if not identical17:22
bryceok17:23
tjaaltononce i get home, sure17:23
tjaaltonif i don't pass out before :)17:23
tjaaltonhum, 'crash out' probably is what i was after..17:25
brycehehe17:25
tjaaltonhmm, apparently the new server causes segfaults for some intel users17:40
crevetteah17:55
* crevette will wait a bit to update17:55
tjaaltonthe intel problem is this: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1901719:31
ubottuFreedesktop bug 19017 in Driver/intel "fail to start Xorg with the latest xserver (server-1.6 branch)" [Blocker,New]19:31
tjaaltonso probably worth to revert that one until it's fixed19:32
tjaaltonbut DHW ->19:32
brycetjaalton: ok I'll put on my todo list to look at it19:34

bryceheya tseliot22:48
tseliothey bryce22:49
superm1tseliot, how soon are you planning on uploading 180.16 (do you need a sponsor)?  my mythbuntu team is needing it because mythtv is a build dep on it as of trunk, so we're trying to get VDPAU mythtv builds out22:49
tseliotsuperm1: 180.11 is already available in Jaunty22:51
superm1the API changed in 180.1622:51
superm1that API is what's used in myth unfortunately :(22:51
tseliotsuperm1: ah, I didn't know22:51
tseliotsuperm1: I have to make sure that nothing changed (in the packaging) but I think I'll do it soon22:52
