[02:28] <rafiyr> Anyone know of an existing fix for evdev rotation?
[02:30] <KiBi> rafiyr: mobile device?
[02:31] <rafiyr> latitude XT (flip screen tablet)
[02:31] <rafiyr> there's a scaling issue if you just twiddle the options with xinput
[02:32] <rafiyr> I was just about to fix, but figured I'd check to see if its already been fixed first
[02:32] <KiBi> ok; just wondering whether that might have had something to do wit some debian bug I just took care of (and no, nothing to do)
[09:24] <ricotz> Sarvatt, hello, would it be worth it to include a patched "ia32-lib package" to enable opengl acceleration for nouveau with precomiled 32bit applications on 64bit systems (like google-earth)
[15:48] <Sarvatt> ricotz: i dont do that because updating that massive monster every few days along with mesa is crazy :) yes its possible though,  note that it wont work with wine since thats hardcodes opengl vendor names
[16:01] <ricotz> Sarvatt, i also thought so because of its size -- is it possible to create a package which overwrite some files on purpose and let the "broken" package be installed
[16:02] <ricotz> so creating something like a "patch package" for ia32-lib
[16:15] <Sarvatt> ricotz: have you tried updating ia32-libs before? its pretty easy, would be easier to just update it than do all that i'd think
[16:16] <Sarvatt> its the fact that the main user for the 32 bit opengl wouldn't work anyway that stopped me from doing it, not enough time in the day to update all the rest of the stuff as it is but if you wanted to do it it'd be much appreciated
[16:17] <Sarvatt> the radeon r600+ people would appreciate it too since r600 has a higher gl version in edgers than lucid
[16:20] <ricotz> Sarvatt, yeah i think i could update it, but uploading 600mb is not possible for me :(
[16:30] <Sarvatt> if i had the disk space on my vps to do it i'd set you up an account, but i'm already pushing my limits :(
[16:31] <Sarvatt> bryceh: ugh, did you see? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/564181
[17:54] <tormod> vish, would you be willing to bisect that memory hog issue on your X1400?
[17:57] <vish> tormod: sure.. just a sec
[18:05] <vish> tormod: hi.. i'm using the bryceh's ppa but still i dont think it is solved.. better but still a problem
[18:10]  * vish waits for tormod's instructions :)
[18:18] <tormod> vish, (sorry was afk) first, install git-core, and then the rest is well explained here: http://www.x.org/wiki/radeonhd#gitBisecting
[18:19] <tormod> but start with git clone git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/driver/xf86-video-ati
[18:21] <tormod> vish, yes bryceh's ppa backed out a bunch of R6xx stuff, but you have an R500 card...
[18:22] <vish> ok..
[18:22]  * vish reads wiki instructions
[18:25] <tormod> you might want to do a test build and verify the issue is there, before you start the bisecting
[18:27] <vish> hmm weird , Xorg memory usage in sysmonitor stays nearly the same at 33.7Mib
[18:28] <vish> but when i'm watching a flash video , and opening a lot of apps like inkscape and others , the swap starts to get eaten :s
[18:30] <vish> tormod: is there any instructions for doing a test build?
[18:31] <tormod> vish, just do the ./autogen.sh && make && sudo make install
[18:31] <vish> righto..
[18:31] <tormod> hmm maybe you have to run ./configure first, you'll see...
[18:33] <tormod> (no forget configure, you're running autogen which calls configure)
[19:11] <vish> tormod: i get the following error while building >  http://paste.ubuntu.com/416263/
[19:12] <tormod> vish, you did install the build-dep packages?
[19:13] <vish> tormod: hmm , no , i have to install  build-dep alone or any other packages?
[19:13] <tormod> no, just run sudo apt-get build-dep xserver-xorg-video-ati
[19:15] <vish> k..
[19:36] <ricotz> Sarvatt, ping
[19:36] <ricotz> perhaps you can give this a try https://edge.launchpad.net/~ricotz/+archive/staging/+sourcepub/1080802/+listing-archive-extra
