Sarvattwonderful, nv doesn't even work on my laptop with xserver 1.7 :D00:36
Sarvattsounds like people using nvidia have been stuck on vesa for almost a month now if they dont use PPAs or the .runs straight from nvidia00:37
Sarvattah hah, it only took me a month or so there to figure out i need to use alt+f7 to switch from VT to X now for some reason.. :D control blocks it05:23
hyperairhuh?05:29
hyperairit shouldn't..05:29
hyperairwhat kernel are you using?05:29
hyperairor perhaps getty05:29
RAOFIt does if you've accidentally set raw mode on your keyboard, I think.06:20

unggnuAny news about Nouveau and 10.04?13:35
Sarvatthmm, having a ChangeLog in the orig.tar.gz isn't worth having a delta to debian is it? https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/intel-gpu-tools/+bug/50003916:37
ubottuUbuntu bug 500039 in intel-gpu-tools "Please sync intel-gpu-tools (1.0.2-1) with Debian Testing" [Wishlist,New]16:37
SarvattI only added it to the previous one because there was one in the one before that, and there wasn't a debian upstream for it back then16:37
hyperairi think it should be "from"16:38
tjaaltonSarvatt: right18:26
tseliottjaalton, bryce_: do you know why I get this? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/347729/19:26
tseliotsrc/libXNVCtrlAttributes/NvCtrlAttributesVidMode.c:195:2: warning: #warning Old xf86vmode.h; dynamic gamma ramp support will not be compiled.19:27
tseliotwhich means that this fails:19:27
tseliot#if defined(X_XF86VidModeGetGammaRampSize)19:27
tseliotI patched the package with an additional check but X_XF86VidModeGetGammaRampSize should be defined in Lucid19:28
tseliotas it defined in Karmic19:29
tseliotjcristau: ^^19:29
tseliotnever mind... it looks like they moved the definition of X_XF86VidModeGetGammaRampSize from xf86vmode.h to xf86vmproto.h19:47
tseliotI wonder what else was broken in the process...19:47
tjaaltonsome headers were moved, just fix the build-deps :)19:52
Sarvattneed a little more than that, i had to add a patch too when I built it a few weeks ago -- http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29043220:15
ubottubugs.gentoo.org bug 290432 in Unspecified "media-video/nvidia-settings-190.42 (and binutils USE=gold) fails to link -lm and -ldl" [Normal,New]20:15
Sarvattoops, wrong bug20:15
Sarvatthttp://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28974420:16
ubottubugs.gentoo.org bug 289744 in Applications "nvidia-settings-190.40 does not compile w/ libXxf86vm-1.1.0 (patch included)" [Normal,Resolved: fixed]20:16
tseliotyes, it's a matter of including an additional header20:19
tseliotI think we should have a look at all the packages that have libxxf86vm-dev as a build dependency20:21
tseliottjaalton: ^20:25
tseliotBTW I'm taking care of nvidia-settings20:35
Sarvattsweet! there's been a bug with the old jaunty version that hasn't been updated throughout karmic and lucid with Xv contrast level ranges changing and it not being able to cope20:37
Sarvatt(in 185+)20:38
=== \vish is now known as mac_v
Sarvatthmm, thats odd. just tried out an arch spin for this aspire one to see if I had suspend/resume problems there and noticed framebuffer compression actually worked with KMS and said it was enabled in /var/log/Xorg.0.log21:20
Sarvattshoulda looked to see if it was getting enabled in the xorg.conf, i've never not seen [    0.508696] (**) intel(0): Kernel mode setting active, disabling FBC. on ubuntu even though its supposed to default to enabled on mobile chipsets21:21
Sarvattwhen using KMS that is, it worked back in the day with UMS21:23
Sarvattnope specifying it in xorg.conf didn't work, thats strange21:27
jcristauon kms the X driver doesn't handle fbc at all, afaik21:28
Sarvattahhh I think I was just assuming it was using KMS because it was using dri2 when it was just using uxa with UMS probably, that'd explain it21:29
Sarvatti've got radeon on the brain where it needs KMS for dri2 because of using exa, been a long time since i used UMS21:31
tjaaltonbah, tseliot left already21:35
tjaaltonchecked every package that ftbfs, none of them fail because of libxxf86vm-dev21:35
Sarvattthanks for pushing that xi2 test fix to 1.7 branch nominations btw jcristau, it did let me build xserver on powerpc21:38
=== mac_v is now known as \vish
jcristauwell i spent a few hours tracking that one down :)21:43
Sarvattah framebuffer compression is working in KMS here -- FBC_CONTROL: 0xc1f407e321:47
Sarvattoh i didnt see you were the author too, thanks for fixing it too! :D21:47
Sarvattwow what the heck happened to gcalctool, it doesnt do base conversions anymore22:02
Sarvattthe programming view shows the binary for decimal but not for hex, thats kind of silly22:12
Sarvattahh ok its just non-intuitive22:12
