bryceheh, fedora patch from ajax:  xserver-1.5.99.902-sod-off-poulsbo.patch09:49
brycetjaalton, think we need http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/xorg-x11-server/F-11/xserver-1.6.1-synaptics.patch?revision=1.1&view=markup ?09:51
tjaaltonbryce: if it's not in 1.6.3, sure09:56
brycetjaalton, have you plans to upgrade our mesa in karmic?10:03
tjaaltonbryce: to git master?10:05
* bryce nods10:05
tjaaltonheh, want to try compiz on your r6xx?-)10:06
bryceiirc we need to coordinate a compatible api version for -ati, xserver, and kernel10:06
tjaaltonyes, at least if we are shooting for ati kms10:06
bryceoh, debating about pulling a patch vs. waiting until we update10:06
bryceyeah with ati kms I'd like to pull in a compatible set of things to enable that10:07
tjaaltonaiui there are some performance regressions when going kms10:31
brycetjaalton, bad?10:34
tjaaltondon't remember :) meaning that I can't find the reference10:36
tjaaltonI'm thinking about getting a fanless r6xx-based card for fun10:41
tjaaltonreplacing the GF8600GT10:42
brycehmm10:44
bryceI sort of wonder that we've gotten as far as we're likely to with ppas and need to put it in karmic proper for further testing10:46
tjaaltonyeah, could be10:50
brycetjaalton, I've uploaded a few fedora patches to xserver that looked safe, but keep an eye out10:52
brycetjaalton, there was also a virtualbox video autodetect patch which looked interesting, but I don't know that our vbox video driver is broken out in a way that'd work10:52
brycetjaalton, however I think it might help in solving the vbox crash you filed10:52
tjaaltonyeah it was automatic, and there are dozens of dupes of similar crashes10:54
brycelast time I looked into vbox crashes it was just that they needed to rebuild against the newer xserver10:54
bryceseems like that ought to be solved better... but I'm not sure who's responsible for vbox and haven't had time to investigate very far myself10:55
brycethere's a couple wishlist bugs open on it in xorg10:55
tjaaltonthere's the one requiring splitting the drivers out, and including it/them in -input/video-all10:57
tjaaltoncould be that some of the crashers were due to 2.0.x in jaunty being unsupported with xserver 1.6, but it crashed in karmic too, which has vbox 3.0.x10:57
tjaaltonanyway, I think it's really something for the vbox devs to look at10:58
tseliotbryce: I'm wondering if it's the case to update synaptics to 1.1.3 so as to get rid of two patches and gain this feature: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-input-synaptics/commit/?id=0c3fbceb1b2a18f92166fe75c44b5aaada693c4b10:59
brycetjaalton, yeah10:59
tjaaltonsweet, passively cooled HD4650 for 60EUR10:59
brycetseliot, sounds good to me - want to post a debdiff?10:59
brycetseliot, btw I put in a patch from fedora which sounded like it might help with a few recent synaptics regressions where synaptics stopped working11:00
tseliotbryce: sure, I'll work on the debdiff. BTW are you in Dublin?11:01
brycetseliot, yep11:01
tseliotok, almost the same time zone11:01
brycehehe11:01
brycemy sleep schedule is all screwed up tho11:02
tseliotbryce: what patch were you referring to?11:02
tseliotyay for jet-lag...11:02
brycetseliot, 180_fedora_no_synaptics_mouse_synthesis.patch:11:02
tseliotbryce: is it in Karmic already?11:03
brycetseliot, just uploaded it about 10 min ago11:03
* bryce pushes in git too11:03
* tseliot updates his karmic pbuild11:03
tseliotbryce: do we have a git repository?11:04
brycetseliot, yes for xserver, xorg, mesa, -evdev and libdrm11:04
brycetseliot, there is directions on our X wiki11:04
bryces/is/are/11:04
tseliotaah, synaptics is not there, ok11:05
brycethis looks like an interesting patch - http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/rpms/xorg-x11-server/F-11/xserver-1.5.0-projector-fb-size.patch?revision=1.3&view=markup11:06
tseliotbryce: that would affect any device. Intel + UXA should do something similar already. I'm not sure about -ati11:09
tseliotwhich should be good11:09
tselioti.e. maybe we can drop my patch for g-s-d to set the virtual resolution11:10
brycewell, something to keep in mind if we have bugs that would be fixed by it11:13
* tseliot nods11:14
tjaaltonbryce: kick kees to promote audit to main, so that xorg-server would actually build ;)11:31
tjaaltonI filed a bug about it a week ago11:32
keestjaalton: it's on the list this week, I swear!11:34
tjaaltonkees: hehe :)11:34
keeswe want it for apparmor too11:34
tjaaltonyeah, it surprised me that it wasn't in main already11:34
tjaaltonsince without it you won't be able to see the logs11:35
tjaaltonaiui11:35

Sarvattwoohoo that blender fix got pulled into mesa 7.5 branch too so no need to cherry pick it. 7.5.1 should be released any day now with it19:30
Sarvattnice being able to use blender on intel for the first time since january :D19:31
hyperairwhat was wrong?19:31
Sarvatt(without LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 that is)19:32
hyperairO_o19:32
Sarvatthttps://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/35376319:32
ubottuLaunchpad bug 353763 in mesa "[i965gm] (Needs mesa >= 7.5.1) Blender is unusable with UXA (DRI2 bug)" [Undecided,Confirmed]19:32
Sarvattsingle buffered frontbuffer rendering was screwed up19:32
Sarvattdropdown menus didnt work19:32
Sarvattdo you guys think i should package up libdrm 2.4.12 and -intel 2.8.0 for x-updates or should we leave it at 2.7.1? i'm really torn on what to do there, dropping EXA seems like a bad idea19:34
hyperairask on ubuntu-devel perhaps?19:34
Sarvattack membership meeting in 1.5 hours and i have to run out and do a job, this will be cutting it close19:35
Sarvattwell x-updates is part of ubuntu-x is why i asked here :D19:35
hyperairheh well =p19:35
hyperairi don't really know, i've got xorg-edgers anyway19:36
Sarvattyeah i'm thinking just put libdrm 2.4.12 on x-updates and leaving 2.8.0 to edgers, i've been keeping edgers as a stable repo for the past few months instead of bleeding edge (outside of mesa and drivers that is) mostly because of intel :D19:38
Sarvattxserver 1.7 still doesnt compile with kdrive xdmx and xvfb enabled :( it looks like Peter Hutterer is going to take over as release manager for it so it can get pushed out the door really soon here though19:42
Sarvatttjaalton: looks like no XKB2 for 7.5 going by #xorg-devel19:42
Sarvatthmm, anyone have any idea where I should start looking into this problem? http://sarvatt.com/downloads/Xorg.0.log xserver master is getting stuck in a loop starting up, cursor shows up then it restarts again, haven't had a chance to gdb it yet since this is my main machine and I've needed it. The one time I got it up the mouse wouldn't work no matter what I did (I let it loop for like 10 minutes until it started)19:56
Sarvatt[dix] couldn't enable device 619:57

albert23Sarvatt: I think you need -synaptics from git (input abi 7)19:59
* albert23 had the same problem earlier today19:59
Sarvattyeah it is19:59
Sarvatthttps://edge.launchpad.net/~sarvatt/+archive/xorg-testing19:59
Sarvatti updated xserver since then so i dont have those specific dbg packages :(20:02

SarvattABI class: X.Org XInput driver, version 7.020:08
albert23Sarvatt: yes I see. I went from 7 July to todays version to fix it, so I also already had abi 7.20:10
tjaaltonSarvatt: ah, bummer20:11
Sarvatti went from 07-22 to 08-01 there, there were a _ton_ of input changes around the 29th, guess i'll see if its fixed on master now and hope it was a server bug :D20:13
Sarvatti'm just worried its a ubuntu xserver patch that applies but interferes because that'll take alot of work to track down :D20:19
SarvattRAOF: next time you upload xserver-xorg-video-nouveau, can you drop ARCHITECTURE="$(dpkg --print-installation-architecture)" from debian/xsfbs/xsfbs.sh? 21:01
Sarvattlooks like get-orig-source doesnt grab anything from debian git so it kept it around21:01
Sarvattdarn, anyone around that can say anything about my contributions for membership in #ubuntu-meeting?21:22
stgraberbryce, bryce_away: ping21:39
stgraberignore that, it was for Sarvatt's membership though he provided a good IRC log that'll probably be as good as a testimonial :)21:42
tjaaltonheh, great21:52
bryceah sorry, was out to lunch with the desktop team22:25
bryceSarvatt, sorry about that, terrible timing that all of the canonical people who could vouch for you were out at company dinners tonight :-/22:26
bryceSarvatt, hope you got in ok anyway?22:26
Sarvattohh, no worries, it was my mistake not asking for any testamonials on my wiki page in the first place. yep, got in because of the chat logs for #ubuntu-x luckily :)22:28
brycesweet22:28
brycecongrats dude :-)22:28
Seveasbryce, next time you tell someone to become a member, be a good boy and leave something on their wikipage as well :P22:32
bryceSeveas, nah I'm a bad boy22:36
