Sarvattcnd: also you'll need to no change rebuild your video driver, xorg-edgers has newer versions than in the xorg-testing one00:19
m3gai have an un-recognised usb device that according to lsusb -v is a mouse. how do i get X to use it?00:40
RAOFYou need to get the kernel to present it as an input device; once that's happened, the evdev X driver will pick it up.00:42
m3gathere's not shortcut for testing? its a touchscreen device btw00:46
RAOFI _think_ you'll need to get the kernel to recognise it before anything interesting will happen.00:48
m3gaRAOF: Xorg.0.log is here http://pastebin.org/336855 . avago mouse is detected, but i get not pointer on screen and no mouse like behaviour when i touch the screen (this is a touchscreen device)01:53
RAOFHm.  That looks like it's getting picked up by X correctly.  I'm not sure what the problem is - I've not got much experience with touchscreens.02:01
m3gamost touchscreens don't pretend to be a mouse device.02:02
RAOFI'm not sure how true that is; from what I can remember, bryceh's touchscreen used kernel uinput + the evdev driver.02:06

ScottKIt looks to me like GL headers moved from /usr/include/GL to /usr/include/ (e.g. /usr/include/GL/gl.h is now found in /usr/include/gl.h)03:55
ScottKWas that on purpose?03:55
RAOFScottK: Not on purpose, and fixed in 7.8.1-3ubuntu203:57
ScottKRAOF: Thanks.03:57
ScottKI'll update and try again.03:58
ScottKRAOF: Thanks again.  Updating solved the problem.  Way easier than hand editing includes in libqt4-opengl-dev to make a test build work.04:00

jcristauSarvatt: go ahead and add it09:34
Sarvattdang, digging through the chrome source leads to some interesting finds, they have a glx and gles rendering backends in the works and a ton of switches http://src.chromium.org/svn/trunk/src/chrome/common/chrome_switches.cc11:05
Sarvatt--enable-accelerated-compositing looks interesting :)11:05
RAOFgles?  Not openvg?11:06
tseliotSarvatt: what's missing in the nvidia package in x-updates?11:37
=== Bernardo|Away is now known as Bernardo
=== Bernardo is now known as Bernardo|Away
Sarvatttseliot: nvidia_supported doesn't work anymore so i hardcoded the modaliases from the last one that worked, the headers all go in /usr/include/nvida-current/whatever so nothing can find them, and the 32 bit compat install is installing all libs instead of just specific ones12:07
Sarvatt dh_install -p$(PKG_driver)  "$(dirname_x86)/*.so*"  "$(PKG_libdir32)" is wrong in it, all .so's are in $(dirname_x86) toplevel now12:09
Sarvattit's probably installing links it doesn't need to too12:11
tseliotSarvatt: as regards the headers, we cannot let each nvidia driver install the same headers in the same place12:15
Sarvattcan't just make the directory an alternative either, ah well12:15
tseliotright12:16
Sarvattby can't I mean please please please please please don't of course :)12:16
tseliotthings such as openCL headers should be packaged separately12:16
tseliotas they're not specific to nvidia12:16
Sarvatti think you're the only one that can follow the nvidia packaging these days :)12:17
tseliotheh12:18
tseliotunfortunately ;)12:18
Sarvatti get so lost keeping track which of the 50+ variables in the rules to use in all of the .in's12:18
tseliotthose variables make sure that we don't have to update each file manually but of course you have to see what they stand for12:19
tseliotthe work that you did on the package was a big help, I hope to complete it soon12:20
Sarvattwhat do you think about moving libGL back to /usr/lib? I have nvidia-current, nvidia-173 and mesa all in there with the libGL.so.1 symlink the only thing conflicting. can we just have every package providing it set up an alternative with different priorities?12:23
Sarvattjust trying to figure out how to get rid of some of the complexity in the packaging, and drivers direct from the manufacturers would work again :)12:25
tseliotyes, that would be fine. libGL.so.1 can be made a slave link of the alternative, I guess12:25
tseliotwell, "work again" after some effort would be more realistic ;)12:26
Sarvattoh, forgot to ask, but this is bogus isnt it? - update-alternatives --remove gl_conf /usr/lib/GL/ld.so.conf12:27
Sarvattit's in the mesa prerm's12:27
Sarvattthere's no /usr/lib/GL12:27
Sarvatthttp://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-xorg/lib/mesa.git;a=blob;f=debian/libgl1-mesa-swx11.prerm;h=36830024245fe6255621ed9be2099f57f01b6b82;hb=refs/heads/ubuntu12:28
tseliotno, it's not bogus, it simply tells it to remove the alternative12:29
tseliotI think that should be /usr/lib/mesa/ld.so.conf though12:29
tseliotI'll check that later12:29
Sarvattyeah thats why I was confused12:30
* tseliot -> lunch12:30
Sarvatti think we used /usr/lib/GL when you first started doing it12:30
tseliotthat's likely12:30
tseliotbbl12:30
Sarvattsee ya12:30
KangaroooSarvatt: ive put more xcrashes :) https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/58771012:40

* Sarvatt has no idea how to fix that, i have it as far back as 4.2 but no 4.122:39
Sarvattit's cursing me, couldn't get xorg-docs building a few days ago either :)22:41
NgSarvatt: istr you asked me if I still see the flickering on intel - yes, it was happening earlier23:14
