[05:49] <tanath> can anyone help me narrow down my graphics issue? i have graphical glitches that make it difficult to see anything
[05:49] <tanath> came from a somewhat recent update. is a regression
[05:54] <tanath> anyone? it's rather frustrating >_<
[07:53] <RAOF> There we go.  Now with 2.6.31-compatible nouveau
[13:31] <tseliot> tjaalton, jcristau: any ideas as to why X.org stops logging in Karmic? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/218888/ 
[13:31] <tseliot> and is there a way to restart logging?
[13:57] <tseliot> if I create an xorg.conf with a Device section I can't reproduce the problem
[14:12] <jcristau> tseliot: nothing in the gdm log?
[14:14] <tseliot> I'll check that
[14:25] <tormod> tseliot: it doesn't stop logging, it dies. check the gdm log also.
[14:25] <tseliot> yes, I noticed that ;)
[14:26] <tormod> yeah I though that would be hard to miss but since you asked :)
[15:11] <Sarvatt> wow, good thing i didnt make your kernel last night tormod lol
[15:11] <Sarvatt> http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/airlied/drm-2.6.git;a=shortlog;h=drm-radeon-kms
[15:16] <tormod> it's flooding
[15:17] <Sarvatt> making it now, going to pull drm-next drm-fixes drm-radeon-kms and drm-intel-next into it so far at least :D
[15:17] <tormod> sounds like a perfect edgy kernel :)
[15:17] <Sarvatt> some time to go on vacation :)
[15:18] <Sarvatt> i really should just make it off of the ubuntu kernel build system so we can upload it to a PPA...
[15:22] <Sarvatt> hmm, pull everything into a branch off linus' tree, then cherry pick ubuntu sauce on top of it? i'm not sure how to manage it in git
[15:23] <Sarvatt> imagine pulling in new stuff on top of ubuntu-karmic.git will screw up some of the sauce
[15:27] <Sarvatt> too much to read up on now, i'll just use kernel-package again
[15:45] <Sarvatt_> man, nouveau stinks :)
[15:45] <Sarvatt_> Power usage (5 minute ACPI estimate) :  53.6 W (1.3 hours left)
[15:46] <Sarvatt_> Power usage (5 minute ACPI estimate) :  69.5 W (1.0 hours left)
[15:46] <Sarvatt_> LOL
[15:47] <Sarvatt_> its like 15 with nvidia on this hp lappy.. wheres devicekit-backlight at? i miss brightness keys :D
[15:47] <jcristau> it turns out using the power saving stuff from a card without any information about it is hard.  who would have thought.
[15:47] <jcristau> :)
[15:49] <Sarvatt_> well it sure isn't just powermizer missing at least, running it at full clock speed on the blob only shoots up around 21 watts 
[16:00] <Sarvatt_> tormod: does your intel system you're testing the kernel on have ICH6 chipset?
[16:01] <Sarvatt_> i want to start putting a patch back in to force it to SATA mode but dont want to screw your system up
[16:02] <tormod> Sarvatt_: ICH6M Chipset, right on :)
[16:03] <Sarvatt_> darn, would probably screw you up then
[16:04] <Sarvatt_> http://sarvatt.com/downloads/patches/ich_force_ahci_mode.patch
[16:05] <Sarvatt_> eww, segfault starting gedit..
[16:06] <Sarvatt_> http://sarvatt.com/downloads/patches/ich_force_ahci_mode.patch
[16:08] <tormod> Sarvatt_: I can check if it has any of the PCI IDs listed in that patch, but not now
[16:09] <Sarvatt_> looking to see if theres a way to disable the quirks
[16:11] <Sarvatt_> do you use an ide drive in it?
[16:12] <Sarvatt_> eh i'll leave it out, other people were using it too no biggie.
[16:15] <tormod> yes it has an ide drive
[16:16] <Sarvatt_> ah yeah that patch will screw you up then
[16:20] <tormod> do you know if the IDs in the patch are for the IDE controller or more probably the SATA AHCI controller? I am pretty sure this old machine does not have any sata controller
[16:21] <Sarvatt_> they're odd, the pci id changes in ide or sata mode and that quirks it over into sata mode instead of ide
[16:28] <Sarvatt_> hmm http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/35295/
[16:28] <Sarvatt_> he put my changes in there, not sure yet if this is going to fix it loading on non aspire ones though
[16:29] <tormod> the "AO" check is still left out
[16:30] <Sarvatt_> yeah looks like its still screwed up
[16:41] <Sarvatt_> whats your acer's product tormod?
[16:43] <aggie> hi
[16:44] <aggie> uuuh I'm using ubuntu 9.04 it's beautifull as ever. But there's omething going on with my windows
[16:44] <aggie> When I move them arround the have a delay
[16:44] <aggie> like when you finish solitair in windows
[16:44] <aggie> :)
[16:45] <aggie> I have a Intel Corporation 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G]/GE Chipset
[16:48] <aggie> help!
[22:48] <drvoodoo> hi, has anyone a solution for a very bad x-performance with kde4.2 and 4.3 and an ati mobility radeon 9000? have installed the radeon-driver from the x-updates ppas
[23:42] <Ng> interesting situation in karmic atm
[23:43] <Ng> KMS is so fast to bring the display back after suspend that X doesn't seem to have had time to bring the keyboard back
[23:43] <Ng> I hear RH might have patches to help with this (so says Pete Graner)
[23:44] <ScottK> My experience with KMS is my system won't boot at all, so you're at a level of refinement well beyond where I am.
[23:44] <Ng> intel?
[23:44] <ScottK> Yes.  I hear it'll be better after the next upload.
[23:44] <Ng> ah right
[23:44] <Ng> I've only used it so far on 965 and G45 and it's been kinda excellent on both
[23:44] <ScottK> Mine is 945.
[23:46] <RAOF> My G45 now actually drives the display correctly with the new kernel.
[23:47] <ScottK> Maybe I'll give it another shot.
