[17:00] <jcastro> bryce_: your list is set, sorry for the confusion
[18:56] <bryce_> jcastro: thanks!
[19:30] <bryce_> tjaalton: do you operation ubuntu?
[19:30] <bryce_> er, s/operation/operate/
[19:51] <tjaalton> bryce_: operate?
[19:54] <bryce_> tjaalton: do you know how we can get it subbed to ubuntu-x-bugs@ ?
[19:54] <tjaalton> bryce_: ah.. well, no :)
[19:55] <bryce_> who runs it?  any ideas?
[19:56] <tjaalton> there's such a mailinglist?
[19:56] <bryce_> I'm setting it up
[19:56] <tjaalton> I mean 'ubuntu' :)
[19:56] <bryce_> I don't want to switch over to it until people (and the bot) have had a chance to sub
[19:57] <bryce_> https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+mailing-list-subscribers
[19:57] <bryce_> (see the post I just sent to ubuntu-@ about it)
[19:58] <tjaalton> riiight, I get it now
[20:05] <mnemo> bryce, tjaalton: how can I build and install mesa from git without loosing the ability to go back to supported distro packages?
[20:05] <tjaalton> mnemo: why would you lose it?
[20:06] <mnemo> im not sure exactly but I think during jaunty cycle that I ended up with a mix of everything
[20:06] <mnemo> i used --prefix=/usr back then
[20:06] <tjaalton> ah
[20:06] <mnemo> should I use --prefix=/usr/local and then delete everything in /usr/local to go back?
[20:06] <mnemo> or what is the foolproof way to revert?
[20:07] <tjaalton> so clone mesa from git.debian.org, and pull the upstream branch on top of the packaging branch (ubuntu, debian-unstable..)
[20:07] <tjaalton> better yet, create a branch for it first
[20:07] <mnemo> ok and then build a deb from debian git repo?
[20:08] <tjaalton> (git checkout ubuntu; git checkout -b my-test; git merge mesa_7_4_1)
[20:08] <tjaalton> yes
[20:08] <mnemo> with a bit of googling I can figure that out
[20:08] <tjaalton> modify the changelog first
[20:08] <mnemo> and in the final step, how do I revert from the debian-git DEB back to the distro DEB?
[20:09] <mnemo> for example, can I use "sudo apt-get install mesa/jaunty" ?
[20:09] <tjaalton> apt-get install foo=VER
[20:09] <tjaalton> I'm not sure if there is a simple way to revert all the packages in one go
[20:10] <tjaalton> afk, tv ->
[20:10] <mnemo> when I revert from xorg-edgers I usually do something like:
[20:10] <mnemo> sudo apt-get install $(apt-show-versions -b | awk '/\/unknown/ { printf gensub(/([a-z0-9-])\/unknown/, "\\1/jaunty ", 1) }')
[20:10] <mnemo> yea
[20:10] <mnemo> cya
[20:10] <mnemo> thanks for the help
[22:00] <cshadowrun> is there any new information about xrandr supporting multiple nvidia cards with 3d?
[22:00] <cshadowrun> i last looked about 5 months ago
[22:15] <cshadowrun> also, anyone know a decent replacement for gnome-panel since it's completely disfunctional for multiple X screens in jaunty?
