bjsnidera lot of the upstream debian packages i'm seeing are set up in an unusual way. there's a debian/source/format file containing this: "3.0 (quilt)". pbuilder is ok with it, but the ppa build system rejects it.01:57
superm1I think that will only start working with lucid02:02
bjsnideri don't see h ow it's an improvement though. why is creating a new directory and file better than putting that info into the rules file?02:03
kklimondabjsnider, this is a so called new source format and there are apparently good reasons to use it..02:17
kklimondaI just can't find them and it made my life harder ;)02:17
bjsnidergood reasons are there?02:21
superm1bjsnider, http://people.debian.org/~hertzog/dpkg-source.html02:24
superm1there's a section there that explains what makes v3 cool02:24

Sarvatt4 boots without compiz and it hasn't happened, hmm05:11
Sarvattdoesnt seem to happen when i disable splash and X starts on VT1 either05:15
Sarvatt..and just happened first boot with compiz+splash with X on VT705:17
* Sarvatt blames the input stuff added to plymouth recently for now05:23
kklimondais it going to be possible to switch between nouveau and nvidia driver using jockey?09:23
Sarvattkklimonda: yeah I imagine so, once its all in just disabling nvidia will drop you back to nouveau14:12
BUGabundoSarvatt: when VirtualBox fails to set a proper guest resolution for window screen size, is it a bug in VB, the X driver, or screen detection ?14:15
jadamsI'm having some problems booting the lucid alpha (both my in-place upgrade and the livecd...to get the livecd to boot I have to add the safe graphics mode)16:27

Sarvattplus you're booting the karmic kernel17:59
Sarvattit only works with 2.6.32-13 right now18:00
BUGabundothanks Sarvatt18:01
paranwill nvidia-glx be updated to 190 in lucid?19:01
BUGabundoisn't it already there?19:03
bjsniderparan, the 190.53 driver is in lucid, it is called "nvidia-current"19:05
paranhm, seems you are correct. The package nvidia-glx-185 in lucid is at version 190.5319:07
paranthanks :)19:08
bjsniderthat is a transitional package19:08
superm1i'm still not keen on us needing to have transitional packages like that19:09
superm1but they're functional i suppose19:10
bjsniderthey get 'er done19:10
paranThe reason I missed it was that I only looked for a nvidia-glx-190 package19:10
bjsniderthe changes to the driver are more than just in the name19:11
bjsnidercompletely new set of packaging scripts19:11
