Sarvattnot worried about the sauce at all, i'd end up pulling nouveau drm-radeon-testing and drm-intel-next into it each time probably anyway :D00:00
Sarvattoh sweet, good post on the kernel update procedure on the kernel-team list now00:07
RAOFHooray!  Nouveau on PPC00:19
Sarvattfunny we got nouveau there but radeon KMS still isn't enabled (last I looked) :D00:20
Sarvattbeen using radeon KMS on my powerpc machine since jaunty00:20
Sarvattok the blob is *totally* busted for me right now01:11
Sarvattplus nv absolutely does not work on nv50+ with novueau KMS in use, I think you're lucky you're on NV40 RAOF :)01:12
RAOFSarvatt: Hm.  I thought I'd *tried* that on my nv96.  Maybe I didn't :)01:12
Sarvatti get a screen full of lovely colored ansi characters no matter what I do with nv, forgot I had xserver-xorg-video-nouveau purged before01:12
Sarvattactivating compiz with the blob completely kills the system here, corruption all over the place and sysrq keys dont even work01:14
RAOF:(01:14
Sarvattit kind of worked without compiz, i got black horizontal line corruption all over the notification area, and indicator-applet-session icons01:15
Sarvattno idea what killed it, updated with the past 3 days worth of updates and rebooted and the wifes laptop was completely messed up :D nothing in the logs, should have tried the -17 kernel again before i purged it01:16
RAOFThat's not very promising; what card is that?01:16
Sarvatt05:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation G86 [GeForce 8400M GS] [10de:0427] (rev a1)01:17
SarvattSubsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device [103c:30cf]01:17
Sarvattdang, g-p-m is constantly dying and respawning still01:17
RAOFThat's not even a particularly crazy card.01:19
Sarvattnope one of the more common laptop GPU's01:21
Sarvattwas one step up from integrated for a long time :D01:21
johanbrI have that card and it's working fine with the blob01:21
johanbr(on lucid)01:21
Sarvatthow recently did you reboot?01:21
johanbryesterday01:22
Sarvatti'll try reinstalling it now that I actually got back into the desktop :D01:22
Sarvatthmm, should nvidia-current call update-initramfs on removal? imagine that novueau blacklist is still in the initrd01:23
RAOFSarvatt: Yes, it should.01:24
Sarvattsheesh, 50% battery used in about 30 minutes of text mode and 10 minutes of having a desktop up with nouveau01:28
Sarvattnvidia-current won't install :D01:35
Sarvatt2010-03-30 20:30:05,913 DEBUG: XorgDriverHandler device sections ({0: ['\tIdentifier\t"Default Device"\n', '\tDriver\t"nvidia"\n']})01:35
RAOFYou're rather at the mercy of the bios' default settings.01:35
RAOFMy nv96 (+ intel) netbook doesn't sap power particularly with nouveau.  Power management support would be nice, though!01:36
Sarvattthink the nvidia/jockey stuff is messed up with xorg.conf.d01:36
Sarvattyepyep just installed xserver-xorg-core (2:1.7.6-2ubuntu1) and can't activate the blob01:38
Sarvatterr, well it installed but gave the error and said it failed, it did install the /etc/X11/xorg.conf though01:39
Sarvatttjaalton: no xorg.conf.d directory getting installed01:58
Sarvatthad to add my own inputclass stuff to xorg.conf, that was my problem01:59
RAOFAnyone want to sponsor an upload for G200EH support to x-x-v-mga?02:01
brycehRAOF, hit me02:18
RAOFgit+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-xorg/driver/xserver-xorg-video-mga02:18
brycehSarvatt, btw if you can associate lp bug #'s with any of those redhat patches you emailed me, it would be a huge help02:18
brycehRAOF, mind doing a debdiff?02:19
RAOFNot at all.02:19
brycehactually nevermind, I got the git tree02:21
RAOFWell, and there's a debdiff attached to the bug now :)02:21
brycehRAOF, upload sponsored02:25
RAOFbryceh: Thanks!02:25
Sarvattahh ok the evdev rules were in xserver-xorg-input-evdev, no wonder I didnt have any02:28
Sarvattshould put a BIG warning somewhere not to update packages yet because things are broken :)02:29
Sarvatti did a catchall evdev InputClass section in my nvidia xorg.conf to catch all /dev/input/event devices and that totally screws up the blob02:29
brycehSarvatt, the trace on bug #532530 looks extremely familiar to me but I can't place it... do you recognize it?02:39
ubottuLaunchpad bug 532530 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "[i815] Segmentation fault at address (nil)" [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/53253002:39
brycehwasn't there a mess of bugs involving libpixman in their backtrace?02:39
Sarvattthe ones i was looking at were all with the blob continuing rendering after a VT switch and screwing up, thats a different one.. wish that person would attach the real logs instead of a tarball of /var/log/02:42
brycehyeah I know02:43
Sarvattahh crap - <tjaalton> [17:39:04] -looks like it'll take hours before the xserver is published on the main archs, so I'll upload the drivers in the morning..03:01
Sarvattwell I'm passing around this link for people that already upgraded and need to reboot.. http://sarvatt.com/downloads/xorg.conf.d/03:02
brycehSarvatt, maybe mail that to ubuntu-devel@03:03
Sarvattbryceh: sorry I was swamped there trying to fix the wifes machine, you know how it goes I'm sure :D responding to your patch mail now03:41
brycehheh yep03:46
brycehmeanwhile I've gotten the -ati .192 merge done03:46
brycehseveral nice fixes in it03:47
brycehone thing I'm unsure about though - it has a conf from debian to enable kms, but not sure if that's going to interfere with our kms enablement03:47
brycehguessing it won't03:48
Sarvattthat EXA backport was totally just me saying I'm doing it in xorg-edgers03:48
Sarvattno reason to install that, just revert http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/driver/xserver-xorg-video-ati.git;a=commit;h=f62daf71011a40aa37802b6abd726b731985174b03:49
brycehrats I *just* uploaded it03:52
brycehwell, I don't think it's going to hurt anything03:54
Sarvattbryceh: can you release http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/driver/xserver-xorg-input-evdev.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ubuntu and http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/driver/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ubuntu ?04:45
Sarvattxserver is borked at the moment, the old udev rules aren't working for me at least and theres no xorg.conf.d snippets to load the drivers without those04:46
tjaaltonSarvatt: whaat? things busted?05:11
tjaaltonsigh, thought I tested that05:14
tjaaltonanyway, evdev & synaptics uploaded05:14
Sarvattyeah things were totally busted on upgrade and reboot here, maybe because I had a nvidia xorg.conf already?05:15
Sarvattsweet! thanks tjaalton05:15
tjaaltonhmm, dunno.. maybe05:15
tjaaltonright, 5-7h queue05:16
tjaaltonshould've just uploaded them earlier05:17
Sarvatttjaalton: yeah we dont have snippets loading the quirks for those tags, those mini 10v's need quirking05:32
Sarvattdoh nevermind yes you did that already!05:32
tjaaltonuntested, but I think they should work..05:32
Sarvattsounds like it worked for him at least! would be nice to figure out why it broke so badly here05:34
tjaaltonhmm, and seems to work here too05:35
tjaaltonyeah :)05:37
tjaalton*phew*05:37
Sarvattworking here on 2 of my other machines too, just the laptop with the blob had major trouble05:40
tjaaltongot a log?05:41
Sarvatti stupidly overwrote the one i was trying to save from the first failed boot05:42
tjaaltonwell you should be able to reproduce it by moving xorg.conf.d away?05:42
Sarvattyou're right, will do that in the morning, wifes using that laptop now05:47
tjaaltonand it failed to start?05:48
tjaaltonthe symptom should be that there was no mouse/kbd05:48
Sarvattno mouse/keyboard yeah05:50
tjaaltonalright then05:51
tjaaltonwell, no-one uses the blob anyway.. oh, wait05:51
tjaalton:)05:51
Sarvattif i could just force nouveau to use the lowest performance state always i'd never look back :)05:53
Sarvattwhoops - make[3]: *** No rule to make target `wcmTilt2Rotation.lo', needed by `wacom_drv.la'.  Stop06:13
tjaaltonSarvatt: you need to run autoreconf firtst06:14
tjaaltonfirst06:14
Sarvattyeah i remember you having that problem the other day and i still forgot :D06:23
tjaaltonthe package is a mess..06:24
tjaaltontoo bad ron won't like the idea of running autoreconf on build06:25
tjaalton*doesn't06:25
tjaaltonthinking about forking it properly, but maybe not :)06:25
Sarvattlp:ubuntu/xf86-input-wacom maybe? :)06:39
Sarvatt(since he doesn't want it in pkg-xorg?)06:40
tjaaltonSarvatt: nah, pkg-xorg is fine, even if he'd maintain it in his own repo07:05
tjaaltonSarvatt: edgers needs to merge the xorg-server changes, or people using the edgers version will end up with no kbd/mouse :)10:23
tjaaltonasac: what's up with the armel buildd's? every build that generates a dbgsym-package fails10:26
tjaaltonasac: and for instance xorg-server failed to build because of that10:33
tjaaltonasac: hmm, it might be ok now..10:35
tjaaltonasac: right, false alarm.. it's built now :)10:35
tjaaltonthere, evtouch and joystick uploaded10:52
tjaaltonhum, joystick rejected, need to fakesync it10:53
tjaaltonthere10:55
tseliotSarvatt: would you like to test my nvidia-settings with -173?15:09
asactjaalton: our builders are unfortunately not stable ... retrying a few times helps often15:42
asacwe are in process of adding new builders .... so there is hope15:42
tseliotjcristau: do you know if/where XSERVER_LIBPCIACCESS is defined in xserver 1.7.x?15:53
tjaaltonasac: oh ok. i was just worried that the xserver didn't build the first time, but then noticed that it was retried and succeeded15:53
* jcristau hands grep to tseliot 15:53
tseliotjcristau: I did that already15:54
jcristauthen you have your answer15:54
tseliotok, it's not defined then15:55
jcristauwrong.15:55
tseliotlibpciaccess-dev is installed here15:57
tseliotand here it says that it should be defined in xorg-server.h: http://www.x.org/wiki/PciReworkHowto15:58
jcristaus/should be/is/15:59
tseliotI don't have any xorg-server.h here16:00
tseliotnever mind, I was convinced that xserver-xorg-dev was already installed16:01
tedgHey guys.  We're trying to bind to Super+Esc but can't seem to.16:52
tedgI can't find an application doing that.16:52
tedgIs that a key combo that X is grabbing?16:52
Sarvatttjaalton: http://pastebin.com/nxnnfP4p -- should we just be matching event devices in synaptics too?16:53
Sarvattbtw tseliot did you see the problem I had last night trying to activate the blob? Jockey says it fails to activate (even though it activates fine) if I try to activate it - 2010-03-30 20:30:05,913 DEBUG: XorgDriverHandler device sections ({0: ['\tIdentifier\t"Default Device"\n', '\tDriver\t"nvidia"\n']})16:56
tseliotSarvatt: can I see the full log and your xorg.conf, please?16:57
Sarvattnot sure if you know whats up with that, just started since the xorg.conf.d xserver16:57
Sarvattlet me see if my wife left that machine on for me to ssh into, one sec16:58
Sarvattthere was no xorg.conf at the time, it still created one though but it said the process failed16:59
Sarvatthttp://pastebin.com/AJiKWr0817:00
tseliotSarvatt: it doesn't say that it failed (at least in the log)17:02
Sarvatti'll redo it later and get you a screenshot of the gui dialog17:06
Sarvattthe gui said it failed even though it worked17:06
tseliotok17:07
Sarvatthmm, evdev is claiming the touchpad for a lot of people without the synaptics upgrade17:54
Sarvattman, the bug number just does not want to stay under 300 - http://www2.bryceharrington.org:8080/X/Reports/ubuntu-x-swat/totals-lucid.svg17:58
brycehSarvatt, heh18:19
brycehwow, that's sad, our 'workqueue' stats are just barely below that...  http://www2.bryceharrington.org:8080/X/Reports/ubuntu-x-swat/totals-lucid-workqueue.svg18:20
brycehthat means almost all the lucid bugs are blocked on us needing to do something with them18:21
rickspencer3Sarvatt, fyi ... my quirks kicked in as you said18:48
rickspencer3(after updating today)18:48
rickspencer3thanks18:48
Sarvattno worries, tjaalton is the one that did all the work porting the quirks over and deserves the thanks :) glad it worked out though, thanks for the update about it18:53
=== radoe_ is now known as radoe
DBOis the issue where closing a clutter app == x crash known?19:53
SarvattDBO: yep https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/55021820:33
ubottuUbuntu bug 550218 in xorg-server "xserver crashes when closing application using clutter" [Medium,Confirmed]20:33
OxymoronSarvatt: Hey :) Do you remember my problem before? :P That video output problem ... I wonder it still doesnt work after updated several possible candidates recently and I wonder, do you know which packages that is required for video output in Kaffeine and Dragonplayer for instance? Or if you know any site I can check on?21:10
SarvattOxymoron: I'd suggest starting by googling xine XvShmPutImage nvidia :)21:34
Sarvattyour X error was a BadMatch in the Xvideo extension in XvShmPutImage21:35
SarvattOxymoron: have you tried fiddling with the nvidia-settings control panel Xv options?21:36
tjaaltonSarvatt: yeah not checking for /dev/input/event* is an oversight, I'll fix it tomorrow21:42
SarvattOxymoron: try seeing if whatever player you're using has a --debug option and run it from a terminal so you can get more info on whats happening21:42
OxymoronSarvatt: Smart ideas, thanks man :) And well I havent fiddling around with nvidia-settings21:48
bjsnideri don't think that would really do it, but it's worth a shot22:12
bjsniderwhat would really help is a new graphics card22:12
Oxymoronbjsnider: You and youre new graphics card talk ...22:28
OxymoronMy Graphic card is perfectly fine ;)22:28
OxymoronSarvatt: Hmm interesting output from dragon in command konsole: ""22:30
OxymoronInotifyFileSystemWatcherEngine::addPaths: inotify_add_watch failed: Filen eller katalogen finns inte22:30
OxymoronQFileSystemWatcher: failed to add paths: /home/oxymoron/.config/ibus/bus22:30
OxymoronBus::open: Can not get ibus-daemon's address. 22:30
OxymoronIBusInputContext::createInputContext: no connection to ibus-daemon 22:30
SarvattOxymoron: no output giving details on what output method is being used and such? all that stuff isnt related22:41
OxymoronSarvatt: How do I retrieve that kind of info then?22:41
Sarvattyou're asking someone who doesn't use KDE.. :)22:44
OxymoronSarvatt: Alright, I will ask someone who does :)22:47
SarvattOxymoron: run the player with --help, it'll give you a list of extra options you can use..23:08
OxymoronSarvatt: Yes, but I cant find any debug option parameter in there and not in --help-kde or --help-qt either23:10
OxymoronSarvatt: Do you know what ibus is btw?23:12
brycehmerged 2.9.1-3 plus cherrypicks23:12
bryceh(for -intel)23:12
Sarvattdo you really not have a multimedia configuration option in the KDE system menus somewhere?23:13
RAOFSarvatt, Oxymoron: There certainly is a multimedia configuration option; Look for “Phonon” somewhere .23:22
OxymoronSarvatt: No, I tried remove ~/.kde before and problem still persist ... It must be something else.23:25
OxymoronRAOF: Look for Phonon somewhere? :P More specific please ... Phonon settings in systemsettings isnt anything, but maybe some phonon settings somewhere else though'23:26
RAOFOxymoron: Phonon settings in systemsettings should be where you're looking.  I'm sure there's *something* there :)23:27
RAOFLook for xine engine options.23:29
RAOFSarvatt: That intel fix has hit lucid-kernel git!  Yay!23:31
OxymoronRAOF: You cant setup anything there, you can only change between gstreamer and xine, no settings at all ...23:32
RAOFThere's *definitely* some form of options around in that sort of area; I remember being able to change the deinterlacer used for DVD content, at least...23:33
SarvattRAOF: yeah i closed a ton of bugs about it already since the -19 kernel with it has already been uploaded23:34
OxymoronRAOF: Yeah, but those options are also removed in latest kde ... so cant even change that and those settings isnt worth anything anyway so.23:35
OxymoronSarvatt: I ll be damn, I installed ibus restarted xserver and then it worked :D23:40
Sarvatttell the KDE people that :)23:40
Oxymoron#kde-devel I guess23:41
ernstpmy plymouth boot is still flickering a lot23:54
ernstpis everyone elses doing that also?23:55
