| ripps | oh please! someone backport this into the ati driver, kms xv is horrible right now. http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-driver-ati/2010-February/013827.html | 00:27 |
|---|---|---|
| bjsnider | does dh_installdocs normally look for a file called "faq" to install? | 04:09 |
| bjsnider | oh, wait. i see where it's getting these instructions | 04:13 |
| bjsnider | there's a guy in +1 that is using an nvidia card, doesn't have the nvidia or nouveau ddx driver running, but has working glxgears | 04:45 |
| RAOF | bjsnider: Define “working glxgears”. glxgears should produce a picture with *any* DDX, and glxinfo should report direct rendering for pretty much any DDX, including VESA. | 07:03 |
| bryceh | RAOF, see on phoronix fedora has 3d on nouveau? | 07:08 |
| tjaalton | yes | 07:09 |
| bryceh | hi tjaalton, how goes? | 07:09 |
| tjaalton | but they have bskeggs so it's ok :) | 07:09 |
| tjaalton | bryceh: hey, pretty busy with life. two exams left and the damn thesis.. | 07:10 |
| bryceh | tjaalton, plus all the kids... how do you do it? | 07:11 |
| bryceh | tjaalton, graduation coming soon? | 07:11 |
| tjaalton | and problems with nfsv4 which is holding back the thesis, but hopefully those are resolved soon | 07:11 |
| bryceh | nfsv4... my old life... | 07:12 |
| tjaalton | bryceh: the deadline is July 31st, but the thesis should be ready by the time lucid is released | 07:12 |
| tjaalton | and I haven't even started writing yet | 07:12 |
| RAOF | Urgh. | 07:15 |
| RAOF | bryceh: Yeah, tjaalton pointed me at dri | 07:15 |
| RAOF | Fedora's dri-drivers-experimental package, and I learnt just how awesome debian source packaging is :) | 07:16 |
| bryceh | hehe | 07:17 |
| RAOF | Versus “just throw it in the .spec file”. | 07:17 |
| tjaalton | bryceh: yeah, it's part of the new environment based on AD/krb5, and installs from altiris. quite a transition from full *nix-platform to one where "money is no object" | 07:19 |
| tjaalton | including an exchange cluster which has a TB of memory :P | 07:19 |
| bryceh | whoa | 07:19 |
| * bryceh shudders @ exchange | 07:19 | |
| tjaalton | yeah, scalability and all that.. | 07:19 |
| bryceh | my dad has been a total windows junkie, but this weekend he had me wipe his laptop and put ubuntu on it... and he's extremely happy | 07:20 |
| bryceh | I'd given him a netbook with ubuntu (one of those poulsbo-based ones) a while ago, so he knew what it was like | 07:21 |
| tjaalton | my parents have yet to join the computing world. they're a bit old for that though (~70y) | 07:21 |
| bryceh | his laptop is nvidia hardware, and I just set up -nv! He was happy since he got video, flash, and all that working fine | 07:21 |
| bryceh | I thought maybe I'd hold off on putting him on -nvidia and move him to nouveau once lucid's out | 07:22 |
| tjaalton | good plan | 07:24 |
| bryceh | hi ara | 07:28 |
| ara | hey bryceh | 07:28 |
| RAOF | bryceh: The lack of proper 18bit dithering didn't bother him? I guess he might not know anything different. | 07:32 |
| bryceh | I could see it, but he didn't seem to mind | 07:32 |
| bryceh | I figured, "Hey, he's happy, don't push it. Expectations low means plenty of room to improve from." ;-) | 07:33 |
| bryceh | RAOF, he was about ready to chuck the hardware and buy a new laptop, so this saved him a bundle | 07:33 |
| bryceh | really all he uses the computer for is playing farmville and watching hulu | 07:34 |
| RAOF | :) | 07:36 |
| jcristau | Sarvatt: managed to get efifb->i915 working by enabling CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING | 12:23 |
| BUGabundo | pastebinit /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old http://paste.ubuntu.com/377558/ | 12:36 |
| BUGabundo | I booted and got a green screen and no TTY | 12:36 |
| BUGabundo | CAD on TTY1 rebooted , and it was all fine | 12:36 |
| === BUGabundo is now known as BUGabundo_FOODZ | ||
| === BUGabundo_FOODZ is now known as BUGabundo | ||
| Sarvatt | hmm odd jcristau - CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING=y in the ubuntu kernels | 14:54 |
| BUGabundo | eh | 15:01 |
| Sarvatt | ahh crap, no wonder mesa stopped building, the gallium rules file I was keeping around got overwritten by the karmic rules file | 15:55 |
| BUGabundo | bah | 15:56 |
| BUGabundo | so that's why I have no 3D ? | 15:56 |
| Sarvatt | yep | 15:59 |
| Sarvatt | now the nouveau api is completely screwed, not sure nouveau will build against this older libdrm | 16:00 |
| BUGabundo | err | 16:02 |
| BUGabundo | would that also explain my fail to boot, I pasted earlier ? | 16:02 |
| BUGabundo | Sarvatt: Maximum number of clients reachedkmail: cannot connect to X server :0.0 | 16:08 |
| BUGabundo | I'm having a serious problem launching new windows after a few hours | 16:08 |
| BUGabundo | and have to reboot | 16:08 |
| Sarvatt | what the heck do you have using 512 clients? | 16:10 |
| BUGabundo | how do i check how many I have? | 16:11 |
| BUGabundo | cause I know I don't | 16:11 |
| BUGabundo | one gnome terminal, one chromium, two pidgin, one gwibber | 16:11 |
| BUGabundo | that's all windows I have opened | 16:11 |
| BUGabundo | $ ps auxw | wc -l | 16:12 |
| BUGabundo | 199 | 16:12 |
| BUGabundo | Sarvatt: fresh boot, while aptitude upgrading http://paste.ubuntu.com/377756/ | 17:49 |
| BUGabundo | ======= Backtrace: ========= | 17:50 |
| BUGabundo | /lib/libc.so.6(+0x76a66)[0x7fcf5d23ba66] | 17:50 |
| kklimonda | BUGabundo: do you think it's related to nouveau? :) | 17:54 |
| BUGabundo | kklimonda: it was the only update (mesa) I got on this reboot | 17:54 |
| BUGabundo | 17:54:23 up 10 min, 3 users, load average: 0.09, 0.61, 0.52 | 17:54 |
| BUGabundo | I want to grab a snack, close the lit of my laptop , set to turn off screen only), when I came back, I couldn't interact with it, everything seemed to work, other then the LCD | 17:55 |
| BUGabundo | so I jumped to TTY1 blingly and pressed CAD, fsck the disks, rebooted, aptitude upgrade X stuff, and got that | 17:56 |
| kklimonda | BUGabundo: I had the same bug | 17:56 |
| kklimonda | BUGabundo: check dmesg | 17:56 |
| kklimonda | there should be something around the time lcd shut down for good | 17:56 |
| BUGabundo | $ dmesg | pastebinit | 17:57 |
| BUGabundo | http://paste.ubuntu.com/377760/ | 17:57 |
| BUGabundo | nothing usefull there | 17:57 |
| BUGabundo | oh on past boot | 17:57 |
| kklimonda | not even boot but the whole last session :) | 17:58 |
| pgraner | bryceh: mind if I add a multi-head column to the nouveau testing wiki? | 19:17 |
| bryceh | pgraner, ok | 19:18 |
| bryceh | pgraner, better make it 'dual-head' for clarification | 19:19 |
| pgraner | bryceh: I have a few multi-head cards and I'm finding nouveau is failing on the higher end ones | 19:19 |
| pgraner | bryceh: ack | 19:19 |
| bryceh | pgraner, since -nvidia can do >2 heads, but -nv doesn't | 19:19 |
| pgraner | bryceh: wildo | 19:20 |
| Sarvatt | alot of complication with nouveau lately like I expected, they completely broke libdrm so it needs a nouveau module that wont be upstream until 2.6.34 so if we did a git snapshot that libdrm or a release if they do one soon it wouldnt work with our lbm-nouveau now | 19:22 |
| Sarvatt | ugh looks like mesa requires that new libdrm-nouveau1 now as well so I can't skirt around it | 19:32 |
