[04:50] oh cool, looks like the fedora patches made it in wacom-tools 0.8.3.1 [07:48] bryce, tjaalton i've got a fix backported from mesa git that fixes that mythtv bug. y'all cool with me uploading it? [08:05] superm1: is it included in 7.4? [08:05] tjaalton, i don't think it is [08:05] which commit? [08:05] 529d1d720e1422bad1880ef33fae1c9423112d2e [08:05] i didn't see it in the 7.4 branch browsing the webif [08:06] hmh, the search doesn't find it.. what's the commit msg? [08:06] This lets swrast produce an fbconfig suitable for the root visual now that [08:06] the server's not allowing mismatched fbconfigs. [08:07] ok, found it [08:08] is it in 7.4, or you found it in trunk? [08:08] not in 7.4, but I'll add it while merging [08:08] okay for now, i'm going to do an upload with it so i can get re-rolled disks tomorrow hopefully [08:08] ok [08:09] toss me the diff so I can add it to git.. [08:09] http://pastebin.com/f1ae8547a [08:12] thanks [08:12] you should probably get an account on alioth :) [08:12] (.debian.org) [08:12] yeah i should. [08:13] where do i fill out such requests? [08:13] there's a webform [08:13] tjaalton,also do you know the right people to ask to pull that into 7.4? i suspect other distros that will be picking up xorg server 1.6 will want to get that too without having to go on the manhunt i did the last few days [08:14] superm1: probably late for 7.4, but 7.4.1 should follow at some point [08:14] but maybe ask brian paul [08:14] is he on IRC? [08:15] at least not atm [08:15] but mesa3d-dev@lists.sf.net should be ok [08:16] okay i'll fire an email that way. i hope they dont make me subscribe to send [08:16] his email is brianp at vmware.com [08:16] if the list is hostile :) [08:19] bryce: I can push the changes to xorg-server git so you can stop worrying about it and start with a clean branch? [08:19] thanks [08:19] hm alioth makes me take username-guest? [08:19] i can't just register username? [08:19] superm1: yes, non-dd's [08:19] no [08:20] that's a bit annoying [08:20] it's only the start [08:21] a bit, but not too much.. you don't need to know about it other than when cloning [08:21] okay so now i dont see anywhere obvious to add an ssh key for git access then? [08:22] you need to be added to the pkg-xorg team [08:23] oh, the keys are behind account maintenance [08:24] night, heading to bed. cya. [08:24] i guess i need to be on a team for it to be exposed in the UI. how lets see if i can find where to request access to a team then [08:24] night bryce [08:25] don't get the git bugs bite.. :P [08:26] okay i requested access. i guess jcristau will have to ack that then [08:26] yep [08:26] i'm headed to bed too. night y'all [08:26] bye [08:48] superm1: added. [09:26] since a few days my brother's metacity is using 100% CPU in jaunty - could this be an X issue? [09:26] seb128 says metacity didn't change in the last 1.5 months [09:26] it [09:26] it's a Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller card in his laptop [09:27] he doesn't use compositing [09:35] dholbach: dunno, my bet is that metacity is just confused [09:40] tjaalton: about what? :) [09:41] what's it doing? [09:47] dholbach: about it's state.. maybe cleaning the configs might help [09:48] tjaalton: which do you suggest? [09:50] dholbach: it's been a while since I used it, so don't know how to clear it [09:50] at least there's ~/.metacity [09:54] I'll ask him to try [10:27] Build, you darn git-buildpackage. I know I'm not on master! I'm on ubuntu-jaunty because I'm building a package for Jaunty, damnit! [10:52] does tormod lurk around these parts? [10:54] sometimes, yes [10:55] I'm just curious about how I can match up his -intel git snapshot changelog with what upstream call things. [10:56] he says it includes up to commit 69c84f2c8204771b68f40ed64e64657237b54546 and upstream wanted me to try 2.6.99.902 [10:56] * Ng tsks at cgit for not making it easier to see a log of these hashes [10:56] what's the point of having a globally unique identifier for each commit if you're not going to make that the easiest way to track history?! ;) [10:57] gitweb was easier in that regard [10:57] aha, that's the second-to-most-recent commit on master. win. [10:57] oh, master [10:57] so not on 2.7 branch [10:59] http://launchpadlibrarian.net/24376936/xserver-xorg-video-intel_2.6.99.1%2Bgit20090327.69c84f2c-0ubuntu0tormod_source.changes [10:59] suggests it's master [11:00] but I have approximately 0 familiarity with the way this stuff is structured for intel [11:00] same as elsewhere.. the release branches are for bugfixes, master for development [14:32] bryce: to not need -f when using git add is to use .diff postfix :) [14:33] don't know why .gitignore has *.patch on it [14:34] xorg-server git updated [14:34] mesa merged in my local ubuntu-next branch.. I'm wondering if we could push that and use for stuff like this (not knowing if 7.4 will be accepted or not, but allowing working on it together) [14:35] damn, gotta run.. get to sing Händel today, again :P [14:43] tjaalton: i guess because git format-patch produces *.patch and it makes sense for upstream to ignore that [19:32] did we get some DPI policy changes lately? [19:32] tormod: apparently... I'm looking for the bug report [19:32] I had these big fat fonts for a while, now it's back to tiny [19:32] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JauntyJackalope/TechnicalOverview?action=diff&rev2=67&rev1=66 [19:33] according to slangasek the dpi thing has been reverted by asac [19:33] which is sort of a bummer to me, but at least this time it's not being blamed on X iniquities ;-) [19:33] this was not discussed anywhere, like on ubuntu-x ? [19:34] I guess not; bug 349140 was the first I got light of it [19:34] Launchpad bug 349140 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "invalid lcd dpi calculated" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/349140 [19:34] #345189 seems to be the bug attached to the change... looking... [19:35] changed in libgnome [19:35] * debian/libgnome2-common.gconf-defaults: fix LP: #345189 - regression after [19:35] switching system font size to 13.333; we backout the new font defaults made in [19:35] 2.25.1-0ubuntu2 and force 96 dpi again (see 2.24.1-1ubuntu3) [19:35] -- Alexander Sack Mon, 23 Mar 2009 12:34:41 +0100 [19:37] where is 96 dpi forced? [19:37] it is not on the X server command line AFAICS [19:37] no, it's forced in libgnome [19:38] tormod: it's telling that kubuntu has not been forcing the dpi for some time, and trusts what X provides [19:38] so no-gnome applications will get the correct DPI from X then [19:39] shouldn't they rather fix Gnome? [19:39] historically we've typically gotten the bug reports about monitors with invalid physical dimension EDID only from KDE users, since that messes up the dpi X reports. GNOME users don't see those kinds of bugs since it's been forced [19:39] tormod: fixing Gnome seems the sensible solution to me as well [19:40] tormod: maybe it's too hard for them though *shrug* [19:40] e.g. it may require individually fixing a lot of different apps, or altering font definitions or something [19:41] at least it would be nice if they implemented as an option, so testers could switch the 96 dpi forcing off, so they can work on getting the apps fixed up [19:41] yes this kind of hides bugs instead of getting them fixed [19:41] I anticipate we're going to see a bunch of bug reports against X.org now, that say "Hey, you guys finally got my font dpi right in Jaunty, but now with the release it's regressed to 96 again...??" [19:42] we got a bunch of edid quirking working thanks to the KDE reports [19:43] I liked having an A4 paper on the screen being the size of an A4 paper etc [19:43] * bryce nods [19:44] I hope they drop the dpi-forcing ASAP in Karmic [19:44] * bryce waves a wand and turns 349140 into a libgnome bug [19:44] actually it'll be nice for a change to be able to forward a bunch of X bugs to gnome, instead of the other way round ;-) [19:46] tormod: mm, in 345189 it appears asac is working on fixing each application individually.. that's why there's so many bug tasks there [19:47] sounds like the root issue is application developers confusing "pixel-size fonts" with "point-size fonts" [19:47] good to hear he is working on it [19:50] mesa seems to need plenty of fixes, are we gonna get 7.4 in? [19:55] tormod: timo's working on it [20:02] tjaalton: you may want to cherry-pick for bug 324854 [20:02] Launchpad bug 324854 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "DRI2: (UXA) white transparency artifacts with compiz [patch]" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/324854
