TheMusoIs it known that multi-touch is broken for MacBook Pro 4,1 and up? I don't know if others are working, but mine isn't.08:37
TheMusoTo be more precise, I can do 2-finger scrolling, but I can't put two fingers on the pad, click the button and perform a right click.08:38
TheMusoIt also appears that the evdev and synaptics input drivers are loaded. Not sure what happens in Intrepid, would need to reboot to check.08:43
mnemoanyone else seeing this on jaunty? --> http://files.minimum.se/bug_attachments/xorg_intel/opengl_surface_leaves_dirt_trail_when_moved/opengl_surface_leaves_dirt_when_moved.png08:48
mnemoi've had that problem on my machine since 2.6.28 kernel landed (at which time a bunch of intel packages where updated as well)08:48
mnemohardware is intel g4508:49
tjaaltonmnemo: nope, works fine on my i96508:54
tjaaltonTheMuso: sorry, don't have a touchpad..08:54
TheMusotjaalton: Ok appart from the X logs, is there anthing else I can check?08:58
tjaaltonTheMuso: check if some of the recent patches for the driver broke something09:02
TheMusotjaalton: Kernel level, or X/Userspace level?09:03
TheMusonever mind, I'll try with an intrepid kernel and see what happens.09:03
ziroday`Hi, I have an odd bug where my left click sometimes acts as a middle click. Would that be a X bug?10:37
tseliotmvo: just FYI Update Manager should migrate users who have nvidia-glx-177 installed to whatever nvidia-common recommends (since 177 is no longer in jaunty)10:43
mvotseliot: thanks, I will do that (or just we just run the nvidia detector again and install whatever package is recommended for the given hardware by it)?10:50
=== crevette__ is now known as crevette
tseliotmvo: nvidia-detector was triggered only if a driver with the old name scheme was detected10:51
tseliotI could make it catch 177 too (for upgrades from the command line)10:51
mvotseliot: it sounds like it should go there, yes. if it does update-manager should pick the right driver for -177 automatically11:03
mvotseliot: it build-depends on nvidia-common so a rebuild of u-m should be enough :)11:04
tseliotmvo: ok, great, I'll let you know when it's ready11:04
mvotseliot: it looks like its enough to add the name to old_drivers, right?11:05
tseliotI can't remember :-P11:06
tseliotbut yes, that should be the way it's donw11:06
tseliotdone11:06
tseliotmvo: aah, yes, it's sufficient to add it to the "oldPackages" list11:07
mvo:)11:07
mvothanks11:08
mvonice11:08
mvothe code is still active in u-m so we should be fine11:08
tjaaltonshouldn't -180 just replace -177?11:08
* mvo needs to reboot11:08
tjaaltonhmm11:14
tjaaltontseliot: did you see my comment?11:14
tseliottjaalton: yes, in part. 173 should replace 177 too11:15
tseliotsome cards will use 173 others will use 18011:15
tjaaltontseliot: did 180 drop support for some cards?11:15
tseliottjaalton: geforce 511:16
tseliothttp://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=12260611:17
tjaaltonI thought 173 was the last releae that supported it11:17
tjaaltoncan' read links now11:18
tjaalton+t11:18
tseliotyes, you're right11:18
tseliotI guess 177 was just a transitional driver11:19
tjaaltonwell it was the stable one, now replaced by 18011:19
bryce_can 177 be dropped then?11:20
tseliotbryce_: pitti removed it from jaunty11:20
bryce_ok11:20
tseliotmvo: I have just pushed my changes but I haven't had the time to test them: https://code.launchpad.net/~albertomilone/nvidia-common/main11:30
tseliotthe diff is very small11:30
tseliottjaalton, jcristau: do you know what's the username of Peter Hutterer on IRC?15:42
tjaaltontseliot: whot15:42
tseliottjaalton: thanks15:43
tjaaltonbut he's in a funny timezone, so it's early morning down there15:43
tjaaltontoo early15:43
tseliotoh15:46
tjaaltonsomething like GMT+1015:48
tseliotAustralia?15:49
jcristauyeah15:50
federico1tseliot: the tablet stuff - http://mail.gnome.org/archives/distributor-list/2009-February/msg00000.html20:20
tseliotfederico1: ah, ok so it just allows users to decide whether screen rotations affect tablets too20:22
federico1tseliot: yeah - it's an evil hack, but works for now20:22
tseliotfederico1: I'm working on a daemon (in C) which should make tablets hotplugging just work (Alexia_Death did it in Python)20:24
tseliotand I thought that you were referring to something like that20:25
