| bjsnider | Sarvatt, is the nvidia-current in x-updates the maverick one backported? | 02:44 |
|---|---|---|
| Sarvatt | yep, same thing | 02:47 |
| bjsnider | the newest version | 02:49 |
| bjsnider | with the 32-bit compat stuff fixed | 02:50 |
| RAOF | Sarvatt: GAH! Where's that agp bug, so I can scream at the kernel team? | 08:58 |
| bryceh | RAOF, how's the sprint going so far? | 10:26 |
| RAOF | bryceh: Pretty good - the arm guys want to pick my brains lots. | 10:51 |
| bryceh | yeah | 10:51 |
| RAOF | It's nice to be able to stroll down the hall and poke the kernel guys, too :) | 10:51 |
| bryceh | are they still asking about how to implement 3D X drivers on top of their proprietary opengl es stacks? | 10:53 |
| RAOF | They're working out precisely where the proprietary interface should be, yeah. | 10:53 |
| bryceh | yeah | 10:54 |
| RAOF | The existance of a blob seems pretty non-negotiable at this point. | 10:55 |
| bryceh | I hope you have more luck with them than I did | 10:56 |
| bryceh | it seemed they had gotten themselves into sort of an untenable position | 10:57 |
| bryceh | they need a 3d-enabled framebuffer driver but want to do it atop proprietary hardware/firmware gles | 10:58 |
| bryceh | and would like to achieve it without investing much manpower into development I guess | 10:58 |
| bryceh | maybe the new non-profit entity will give them a better opportunity to achieve that | 10:59 |
| RAOF | It looks like things may be moving forward. | 11:00 |
| bryceh | ah good | 11:00 |
| bryceh | RAOF, btw, I was working on those radeon/linux/mesa reports we had talked about at uds | 11:00 |
| bryceh | still WIPish but - http://www2.bryceharrington.org:8080/X/Reports/ubuntu-x-swat/all-radeon-bugs.html | 11:00 |
| tjaalton | if the rest of the community has failed at that, I'm skeptical that RAOF would succeed ;) | 11:01 |
| tjaalton | man, im slow | 11:01 |
| bryceh | there are also intel and nouveau reports there, but less interesting. | 11:01 |
| bryceh | I'm going to split them into 'lucid' and 'maverick' reports... does that work? | 11:02 |
| RAOF | That would be good, yeah. | 11:02 |
| bryceh | the maverick reports are going to be pretty much empty | 11:02 |
| bryceh | but I figure those are the ones you care about. The plus side is they'll be so short it'll be easy to clear them | 11:03 |
| RAOF | :) | 11:03 |
| tjaalton | (s/raof/any single person/) | 11:03 |
| bryceh | problem is I'm having to depend on having the linux/mesa bugs tagged as 'radeon', 'nouveau', or 'intel', and it's not common that those tags get applied | 11:03 |
| bryceh | but that's probably a solvable problem | 11:05 |
| RAOF | I've talked to the kernel guys about that tagging. | 11:06 |
| bryceh | so yeah, I'll set these reports up with that assumption, and if they're useful you can lobby for getting the driver tags applied where appropriate | 11:07 |
| RAOF | Great. | 11:07 |
| bryceh | I noticed for the kernel, the 'intel' tag is also used for some wireless drivers and so on, not just graphics | 11:07 |
| bryceh | but it's pretty obvious | 11:07 |
| RAOF | The kernel guys aren't applying that tag. | 11:07 |
| bryceh | ok, it was only maybe 2-3 bugs, so perhaps just end users tagging them | 11:08 |
| RAOF | It probably is, yeah. | 11:08 |
| RAOF | We will be applying tags. Until launchpad grows the ability to search by pciid :) | 11:08 |
| Sarvatt | RAOF: looks like mesa 7.9 might not release until intel Q3 comes out.. | 15:25 |
| RAOF | :/ | 15:26 |
| Sarvatt | sometime in october most likely | 15:26 |
| RAOF | AKA: too goddamned late. | 15:26 |
| Sarvatt | yeah :( | 15:26 |
| Sarvatt | well there will be RC's out before then, could just go with the latest RC | 15:28 |
| Sarvatt | probably wont get an RC until september though when they merge in the new glsl2 stuff | 15:30 |
| RAOF | Right. | 15:30 |
| RAOF | I'm actually going to give a built of that to the DX guys, because they've had problems with the GLSL complier in the past. | 15:31 |
| Sarvatt | i'll upload that for ya in a minute, its building | 15:34 |
| RAOF | Sarvatt: You're doing that? Awesomesauce. | 15:34 |
| Sarvatt | well it'll have xorg-edgers mesa packaging not whats in ubuntu :( | 15:34 |
| Sarvatt | no egl and stuff | 15:34 |
| RAOF | Hm. | 15:35 |
| Sarvatt | i've been holding off updating it since i dont have the cpu cycles to work out all the egl and gles changes, darn atom | 15:37 |
| RAOF | Where's your auto-xorg stuff ending up? | 15:38 |
| Sarvatt | uploaded it https://launchpad.net/~sarvatt/+archive/xorg-testing | 15:38 |
| RAOF | I'll see how much they care about gles. | 15:39 |
| Sarvatt | actually that builds against edgers | 15:39 |
| Sarvatt | i'll put it in sarvatt/ppa | 15:39 |
| BlackZ | Sarvatt: do you have some time to talk about ppa-purge ? | 15:42 |
| Sarvatt | what's up? | 15:42 |
| BlackZ | Sarvatt: nothing, I'd like to do few questions - pm? | 15:43 |
| BlackZ | I don't think this is the right channel | 15:43 |
| Sarvatt | bryceh: was anything happening with the ppa-purge merge request? BlackZ wants to put it in universe | 15:57 |
| BlackZ | Sarvatt: merge? | 16:01 |
| BlackZ | do you mean in bzr? | 16:01 |
| Sarvatt | he was looking into renaming it rm-apt-repository and adding it to the package add-apt-repository is in | 16:01 |
| BlackZ | Sarvatt: BTW I think we should really do it a native ubuntu package | 16:02 |
| BlackZ | but I'm not sure yet | 16:02 |
| BlackZ | a thing is sure: we can't get it in debian directly, because debian does not support PPAs | 16:02 |
| Sarvatt | it already is, theres no - and no tarball? | 16:02 |
| Sarvatt | doesn't make sense in debian at all | 16:03 |
| BlackZ | Sarvatt: ok, so if you're confirming me that I will consider for do that a native ubuntu package in universe :) | 16:03 |
| BlackZ | Sarvatt: I don't think it should be native; if there's upstream it should not be native: in the native packages normally releases are done with an upload in the ubuntu archive | 16:18 |
| === bigjools-afk is now known as bigjools | ||
| RAOF | BlackZ: The correct question for native is “Does this package make sense for anything but Ubunt(/Debian)”. The answer for ppa-purge is “no”, so it should be native. | 16:21 |
| BlackZ | RAOF: right | 16:24 |
| RAOF | So, it should be native. | 16:25 |
| BlackZ | RAOF: sorry, I misunderstood some things related to the package | 16:25 |
| BlackZ | I checked and yes, it should be native | 16:26 |
| bjsnider | tseliot, http://github.com/tseliot/nvidia-graphics-drivers/blob/master/debian/nvidia-current.dirs.in lines 3 and 8 are duplicates | 16:57 |
| tseliot | bjsnider: good point | 16:58 |
| vish | hmm , whats up with Bug #465868 ? seems to have stalled after being assigned to lucid a2 | 18:48 |
