[00:05] <alex-weej> bryce: any idea where the best place to put "xcalib /etc/display-profiles/someprofile" is for a crude configuration?
[00:06] <alex-weej> i've put it in my gdmrc but it only runs after i've logged in for some reason
[00:06] <alex-weej> (in terms of potentially being a standard thing in ubuntu)
[00:06] <bryce> alex-weej: you want it to run prior to login?
[00:06] <alex-weej> want it to run as soon as X even starts
[00:07] <alex-weej> thankfully it persists across s3 suspend now
[00:07] <alex-weej> and cheese/logout don't screw with the CLUT anymore
[00:07] <alex-weej> so it's actually pretty sufficient to just run it when X starts
[00:07] <bryce> would /etc/X11/Xsession.d be appropriate?
[00:07] <bryce> else maybe fit it in with the session stuff in /etc/gdm
[00:08] <alex-weej> bryce: all of this runs as soon as X comes up?
[00:08] <bryce> you may want to play around with it, but yeah
[00:09] <alex-weej> atm i've got it in /etc/gdm/PreSession/Default
[00:09] <bryce> depends on the persistence of the xcalib changes I guess
[00:09] <bryce> how's that working?
[00:09] <alex-weej> it doesn't affect GDM
[00:09] <alex-weej> as soon as i log in i see the colours change
[00:09] <bryce> you mean, doesn't affect the login screen?
[00:09] <alex-weej> yes
[00:09]  * bryce nods
[00:10] <bryce> ok, try in /etc/X11/Xsession.d next.  afaik that should apply for all X sessions including the gdm login screen
[00:10] <alex-weej> ok i'll add a new file
[00:10] <bryce> I'm not sure when /etc/gdm/Init/* stuff gets invoked but you could try that as well
[00:11] <bryce> my guess is that it runs once only when gdm starts though
[00:12] <alex-weej> i think that should be fine
[00:12] <alex-weej> let me try it
[00:12] <alex-weej> brb
[00:18] <alex-weej> bryce: i added a 35display-profile to Xsession.d but it only did the same as my PreSession GDM thing
[00:18] <alex-weej> changes colours when i log in
[00:19] <bryce> what do you mean by 'changes colors'?
[00:19] <alex-weej> so i added it to the end of /etc/gdm/Init/Default and it seems to work flawlessly
[00:19] <bryce> ah ok
[00:19] <alex-weej> applies the CLUT
[00:19] <alex-weej> any idea if there's a way to get it to apply to X on an even lower level?
[00:20] <alex-weej> (other than hacking X --- that's what i'm trying to avoid for now)
[00:27] <bryce> maybe /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ?
[00:27] <bryce> there is also /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc although I'm not sure gdm uses that
[00:27] <bryce> anyway, I think we're running out of rc solutions :-)  so yeah next step would probably involve X hackery
[00:47] <alex-weej> ok will have a play tomorrow
[00:47] <alex-weej> cheers!
[01:25] <bryce> tjaalton: btw the above libx11 issue turned out to just be an out-of-sync mirror
[06:55] <tarimari> hi guys
[07:25] <bryce> hi tarimari
[07:26] <tarimari> i have put this xorg pushers ppa
[07:26] <tarimari> latest xorg etc. i have intel
[07:26] <tarimari> and now my screen is very bright!
[07:26] <tarimari> by default
[07:26] <tarimari> how i can change that
[07:32] <tjaalton> bryce: I don't think the patch to the xkeyboard-config README is right, since the files in /usr aren't configuration files, and will be overwritten on upgrade
[07:33] <tjaalton> I thin it can be configured on the desktop well enough so that the section could be removed completely
[07:36] <bryce> hmm
[07:36] <tjaalton> and having configuration files in /usr would be against the policy AIUI
[07:37] <bryce> yeah
[07:37] <bryce> ok, feel free to fix up as you think it should be
[07:40] <tjaalton> well, I don't know what it should look like :)
[07:41] <tjaalton> maybe evdev.xml should be symlinked to it
[07:46] <tjaalton> I'll reply to the list first
[08:06] <tarimari> where are the devs of xorg pushers ppa?
[08:06] <tjaalton> you are lookin for tormod
[09:07] <tarimari> should i wait tormod at this channel?
[09:08] <tjaalton> maybe, or email him
[09:08] <tarimari> hmm. where i may find his email? :)
[09:08] <tarimari> google "tormod xorg" ?
[09:08] <tjaalton> launchpad?
[09:08] <tarimari> ok thanks
[09:08] <tjaalton> or the package changelogs
[09:08] <tarimari> thanks
[09:10] <tarimari> ok  i found
[09:10] <tarimari> tormod volden
[10:04] <tjaalton> jcristau: libxcb1 Conflicts libxcb-xlib0, but since there's no Replaces libx11-6 and libxcb1 are held back on upgrades
[10:05] <tjaalton> jcristau: this was probably because of "libxcb-xlib is no more"?
[16:28] <tjaalton> seb128: ok, I've got a workaround for you.. put http://users.tkk.fi/~tjaalton/foo/drirc in /etc and restart X
[16:28] <tjaalton> might need to reboot too
[16:28] <seb128> tjaalton: ok thanks!
[16:29] <tjaalton> seb128: is it a i965?
[16:29] <tjaalton> the gfx chip
[16:29] <seb128> tjaalton: yes
[16:29] <tjaalton> ok, so that'll work without modification
[16:29] <seb128> on a dell d630 laptop configuration
[16:29] <tjaalton> confirmed here.. I'll update mesa
[16:29] <seb128> thanks
[16:36] <tjaalton> bryce: btw, I can't see any kind of a performance regressions since patch 107 was disabled from xorg-server
[16:36] <tjaalton> -a
[16:36] <bryce> sweet :-)
[16:37] <tjaalton> at least on my intel
[16:57] <tjaalton> ok, jesse pointed out some mesa commits that might fix the vblank hangs
[16:57] <tjaalton> I'll try them out later today
[17:07] <tarimari> guys i saw somewhere a krandrtray tool with gamma. what version is that, and where ican find it?
[17:11] <bryce> tjaalton: http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Graphs/totals.svg
[17:52] <tjaalton> bryce: wider scale?
[17:54] <bryce> tjaalton: yeah I've gone to setting the time scale to quarters
[17:55] <bryce> tjaalton: I cleaned up xkeyboard-config yesterday, and it's interesting to see it produced a little drop in the totals
[18:08] <tjaalton> bryce: yes, looks like it
[18:14] <tjaalton> bad tuxpaint.. no way to maximize the window
[19:12] <tjaalton> heh, altgr-sysrq-k really works
[19:13] <tjaalton> no need for ctrl-alt-backspace
[19:17] <tarimari> guys how i can change the brightness of monitor at xorg?
[19:18] <tarimari> or the contrast
[19:18] <tarimari> are there somewhere these settings?
[19:18] <tarimari> the console's black color is like grey
[19:18] <tjaalton> what console?
[19:18] <tarimari> black color anyway
[19:18] <tarimari> it is like grey
[19:18] <tarimari> konsole - terminal window - command line
[19:19] <tarimari> this change happened after installing tormod xorg files, i uninstalled and still this exists
[19:19] <tarimari> i can fix it by changing gamma
[19:19] <tarimari> but i think there is problem with contrast
[19:22] <tarimari> how can i reset these settings?
[19:22] <tjaalton> don't know
[19:23] <tarimari> ok
[19:28] <tjaalton> is it a laptop? have you tried shutting it down?
[22:43] <tarimari> -- kde 4.2 final ready at kubuntu-experiment repo
[22:44] <jcristau> tjaalton: i don't understand the problem with libx11/libxcb
