Le-Chuck_ITAHi there, is there a specific tag for bugs related to kms?10:28
hyperairwhat's up with KMS?10:37
RAOFnouveau can haz kms.  And suspend/resume, too.10:38
RAOFPossibly.  If you've got a g80 card, and it's exactly the same as darktama's.10:39
Le-Chuck_ITAhyperair: it breaks my system :)10:39
hyperairand "breaks my system" is supposed to be a very specific description of the problem, yes?10:40
Le-Chuck_ITAhyperair: a "what's up" question requires a quick reply :) But in bug 402982 you'll find a bit more, if you could triage that and request additional information that would be really lovely10:41
ubottuLaunchpad bug 402982 in linux "Kernel mode switching causes frequent screen flashing with intel video card (not present with the same packages and kernel 2.6.30)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/40298210:41
hyperairhuh screen flashing O_o10:41
Le-Chuck_ITAmy system is unusable with kms on10:41
hyperairdo you know which intel card you're using?10:42
hyperairpreferably the lspci -nn line of it10:42
Le-Chuck_ITAbryce: do you have the same problem I think you have an intel card?10:42
hyperairsince there are so many variants10:42
* hyperair also has an intel card10:42
hyperairhow often does your screen flash?10:43
Le-Chuck_ITAhyperair: almost constantly10:43
Le-Chuck_ITAareas of it10:43
Le-Chuck_ITAI can't describe the problem better10:43
hyperairhmm flickering eh10:43
hyperaira video or picture might be good =\10:43
Le-Chuck_ITAis it the right term? 10:43
Le-Chuck_ITAI can try10:43
Le-Chuck_ITAa video, a picture does not look easy :)10:43
hyperairhahah10:43
hyperairalright10:43
hyperairbut if you're using a crt monitor, your video's going to end up funny10:44
Le-Chuck_ITAbtw when I need to find the lspci -nn line I first need lspci, take note of the bus id, and ... is there a simpler way?10:44
Le-Chuck_ITAah no10:45
Le-Chuck_ITAsorry10:45
Le-Chuck_ITA-nn IS the right way10:45
Le-Chuck_ITAI am using my laptop's screen10:46
Le-Chuck_ITAbut to make a video I need to reboot, later10:46
hyperairlaptop screen shouldn't be a problem10:47
Le-Chuck_ITAI know :) 10:49
Le-Chuck_ITAhyperair: thanks for advice, I'll be back later, please take a look to that bug if you have ideas 11:03
* hyperair doesn't have any idea because KMS is working perfectly for him11:04
Le-Chuck_ITAhyperair: I am here to request some triaging and setting priority and all the things that turn a bug into a known bug11:04
Le-Chuck_ITAIt's a kernel bug anyways, not x11:05
Le-Chuck_ITAbut I suspect the xorg experts know what information is needed11:05
Le-Chuck_ITAthanks anyway I have to go now11:05
Sarvatthmm, i think the g-s-d touchpad stuff is screwing up somewhere, not getting TapButton settings after a reboot anymore since upgrading that even though I have a hal fdi enabling them and tapping is enabled in g-s-d16:39
Sarvattbryce: about the openchrome debdiff, should I fix debian/xsfbs/xsfbs.sh at the same time? ARCHITECTURE="$(dpkg --print-installation-architecture)" needs to be removed from every package with xsfbs because of the new dpkg to get rid of the warnings16:46
Sarvatthttp://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/xserver/xorg-server.git;a=commit;h=7deebf983f53c505bc25171ab77fdc408f250a6e16:46
Sarvattshould we add every package that uses xsfbs that isnt updated to this bug? https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/40331616:59
ubottuUbuntu bug 403316 in xorg-server "dpkg: warning: obsolete option '--print-installation-architecture'" [Low,Triaged]16:59
Sarvattwell i'll start adding stuff, got a ton of source packages here that was easy to grep through and dont think it'd hurt to have a list of what needs updating17:19
Sarvattfglrx-installer-8.620/debian/xorg-driver-fglrx.preinst17:20
Sarvatt18:if [ `dpkg --print-installation-architecture` = "amd64" ]; then17:20
Sarvatthmm fglrx-installer might hit trouble when it goes away17:20
tjaaltonit's just a warning, so not urgent and will be fixed in debian before too long17:32
Sarvattdarn, linked all those packages before i realized i couldnt set the priorities lol17:41
Sarvattfglrx-installer is a bit more serious, it uses the --print-installation-architecture output to determine the diversion on amd6417:42
tjaaltonah, ok17:43
Sarvatt--print-installation-architecture might actually go away in the karmic timeframe17:44
Sarvatt  51 When: 1.15.x17:44
Sarvattok made up a debdiff for xserver-xorg-video-openchrome against the current svn741 in karmic. i used bryce's r758 package, removed all the .svn folders and repackaged the orig.tar.gz, then added 02_xextproto_7_1_compat.patch and removed the print-installation-architecture call in xsfbs.sh -- http://sarvatt.com/downloads/xserver-xorg-video-openchrome_0.2.903%2bsvn758-0ubuntu1.debdiff18:02
Sarvatthttps://edge.launchpad.net/~sarvatt/+archive/bugs/+sourcepub/682315/+listing-archive-extra18:08
superm1Sarvatt, what is it supposed to be replaced with?18:10
superm1--print-architecture?18:10
Sarvattyup18:10
superm1well i hope it sticks around at least for karmic's life and changes during LL18:11
Sarvatthttp://git.debian.org/?p=dpkg/dpkg.git;a=blob;f=README.feature-removal-schedule;h=54ec7a7ac1ca0b841156e9385bdd8731943baec1;hb=fd4d99862af837ccf12e83d13da73e8ffb24aa1718:11
superm1packaging changes take a long time to show up in AMD's packages18:11
Sarvattok, so it looks like I should file a bug against xserver-xorg-video-openchrome asking to upgrade it and list all of the changes I have done and link the build on a PPA, then subscribe ubuntu-main-sponsors and attach the debdiff?18:28
Sarvattwhat the heck is up with all of these warnings the past week or so18:39
Sarvattdpkg-shlibdeps: warning: debian/xserver-xorg-video-openchrome/usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/openchrome_drv.so contains an unresolvable reference to symbol DRIDestroyInfoRec: it's probably a plugin.18:39
Sarvattdpkg-shlibdeps: warning: 183 other similar warnings have been skipped (use -v to see them all).18:39
Sarvatthope i did that right -- https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/40461818:55
ubottuUbuntu bug 404618 in xserver-xorg-video-openchrome "Please upgrade xserver-xorg-video-openchrome to latest SVN snapshot." [Undecided,New]18:55
Sarvattis there anything special I should do for requesting to join pkg-xorg in alioth besides requesting to join through the web interface? i dont see a pkg-xorg list on lists.alioth.debian.org like some of the other projects have21:24
