DanaGHeh, new nvidia-glx-96 96.43.10 claims to have support for X server 1.5.999.something... but if I try it on my Jaunty, it segfaults (after hanging for a while before I kill gnome-panel)04:29

DanaGit reads the same file descriptor and address over and over again, with EAGAIN each time... and then Xorg dies.04:35
pwnguingrr04:36
pwnguinany idea why grub would just dump me into command line with no error?04:37
DanaGCan't find menu.lst, perhaps.04:37
pwnguinan interesting theory04:37
pwnguinDanaG: where does grub look for menu.lst at?04:39
DanaGI'm not sure.04:39
DanaGIf you can manually command-line boot Ubuntu, you can try reinstalling Grub.04:39

DanaGI'm glad I'm not regretting the decision to go ATI.06:16
DanaGAlso gets longer battery life than the NV would on the same laptop.06:16
DanaG... except with the 'radeon' driver, it only changes clocks, not voltages.06:16
DanaGSo if I absolutely need battery time, I can just boot Vista.  I rarely do "absolutely need" it, though.06:17

DanaGI prefer mbr-based booting because Intel's Vista WiFi drivers don't work under EFI boot mode.06:29

KuaeraI can't precisely remember when I got it, as I have a horrible memory for such things, but...16:38
KuaeraThree and a half years old?16:38
BUGabundoreally odd16:38
KuaeraAre you certain it's not a feature of an updated synaptic driver?16:39
KuaeraI know I had some "special" scrolling features under Windows when I first got this, but I don't recall ANY mention of two-finger scrolling16:39
KuaeraUnfortunately, it only does y-scrolling :(16:42
BUGabundoKuaera: and if you scroll near the bottom?16:44
BUGabundois it enabled on the Mouse options?16:44
KuaeraBUGabundo: No changes near the bottom. Checking options now.16:45

BUGabundoand mine works X and Y16:46
BUGabundowith "regular" one finger scroll16:46
KuaeraAh.16:46
KuaeraI know I've seen some touchpads with "rails" near the bottom and right for scrolling16:47
BUGabundoyeah mine as just a vertical line "painted" on the touchpad16:49
geniiMine does not have the bottom rail but it still will side-scroll16:55
geniiI'm pretty sure all that is done in software16:55
BUGabundogenii: yep17:07
KuaeraBUGabundo: So, if that's the case, why am I suddenly getting two-finger y-scrolling without anything special in my xorg?17:14
maxbAssuming your hardware can actually detect multiple fingers, whether to *do* anything with that info is up to the synaptics driver17:32
Kuaeramaxb: So the Synaptics driver does y-scrolling with two fingers by default? Hrm. Checking the defaults, it seems that SHMConfig is turned off by default as well.17:46
maxbIt's changed a lot recently, I can believe that it might have turned on two-finger scrolling17:46
Kuaeramaxb: I restarted X with some features up, but screwed up a little. Looking over Xorg.0.log reveals a lot of interesting things.17:55
Kuaeramaxb: I don't see anything regarding two finger scrolling, however.17:56
TheFuzzballDoes anyone have FGLRX working?18:04
KuaeraSorry I'm in and out so much. Just trying to figure out what to do with this.18:04
Kuaeramaxb: The latest xorg-server ignores inputdevice declarations in favor of HAL, correct? If so, how does one anticipate configuring a synaptic touchpad? SHMConfig is off as well, so no runtime configuration is possible.18:05

maxbYes, and hal too18:17
maxb(I think)18:17
Kuaeramaxb: Well, I had restarted HAL to no effect - likely because the device had already been loaded18:17

isaacuhm, according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Drivers19:13
isaacWe are including the 2.6.1 -intel driver along with updated beta versions of mesa and xserver in current jaunty. This marks a significant upgrade from what we shipped in alpha-3.19:13

cwilluisaac, really slow compared to how it was in hardy?19:41
cwilluisaac, there's a bug that doesn't have a good fix yet related to certain intel cards.  If you're on a 32bit machine, the workaround that works for me is to run the -server kernel, which has pae enabled, which disables the new gem video memory manager, which is the source of the grief19:45

Andre_Gondimmaco, I think so22:07
macoAndre_Gondim: wait are you jsut getting no outputs in your volume control thng? if so, that's a known bug22:08

Andre_Gondimmaco, yeah, this is my problem, no output sound22:09
Andre_Gondimmaco, you save my sound life, thanks :D22:10
mphillandersk: are you using the nvidia binary driver, does it work well for you?22:12
dtchenmaco: `pulseaudio -k ; start-pulseaudio-x11' is preferable, as it is guaranteed to work if you had audible audio in intrepid22:23
dtchen(s-p-x does the right thing if the daemon is already running)22:24
macodtchen: ok thanks22:24
dtchenmphill: which version/22:24
dtchenmphill: 180.25 works correctly and resolves a number of PM issues, yes22:25
Kuaeramaxb: In regards to the snippet you linked earlier [ http://rafb.net/p/bM5WEa91.html ], how would one set additional settings, such as HorizTwoFingerScroll, PalmDetect, etc?22:25
dtchenmphill: that said, it does _not_ work if you use a number of xorg.conf options22:25
maxbKuaera: Simply duplicate the <merge.... line as many times as you like, and change key and value22:26
maxb(are you familiar with XML?)22:26

KuaeraNevermind, I found the issue >_> The font I was using in my editor wasn't working right, so what I thought was a period was an underscore.22:28

KuaeraRestarting HAL made it rather impossible to type, so. I am back, and my example works fine22:34
JediMasterhey guys22:36
JediMasterI've got this odd issue with audio not working in X again22:36
dtchenKuaera: the recent dbus and hal changes make it virtually essential that you restart both dbus and hal if you make fdi chagnes22:36
JediMasterlooks like it's a problem with pulseaudio22:36
dtchenJediMaster: pulseaudio -k ; start-pulseaudio-x1122:36
JediMasterthe volume control shows no devices for output22:36

Kuaeradtchen: Ah, thank you.22:37
dtchenKuaera: you can either sudo telinit 1 and then resume normal boot (to runlevel 2), or you can just reboot22:37
macoJediMaster: i dont know what fixed it for you a few days ago. after i rebooted it i hit it too, and then dtchen pointed me to the bug report with the instructions he just gave you22:37
Kuaeradtchen: Understood.22:37
JediMasterta, that as root?22:37
macoJediMaster: no22:37
JediMasteryeah that sorted it, thanks22:38
JediMasterta dtchen22:38
dtchenKuaera: be aware that there is a known issue with certain synaptics and alps hardware that races in initialisation, causing it to disappear as a touchpad on hal restart. in that case, you *must* reboot.22:38
dtcheni'm debugging that linux in my spare cycles22:38
