[00:06] ricotz: Can you point me at that code? It's obviously not _just_ a gnome-do problem, as all sorts of other things are seeing cairo slowness, *and* it's driver-dependent. [00:16] RAOF, for example, if i want to draw something more onto overlay_buffer it slows down http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Ericotz/docky/stacks/annotate/head%3A/Docky/Docky/Menus/StackWidget.cs#L212 [00:17] i am no cairo expert, i still learn by using it === gnomelogger is now known as supremeDalek === supremeDalek is now known as apachelogger === apachelogger is now known as supremeapachelog [07:42] hey guys im having some issues with the nvidia current driver [07:43] it seems for me it crashes and the only way to fix it is to do 2 reboots first one a hard reboot as it wont allow the monitor to turn back on and once i do that since i have gnome installed as well it takes me to the gdm login [07:44] and i can login fine but have issues with sound that way, also this is after restarting x when the low graphics dialogue box with options pops up [07:44] if i reboot a 2nd tiem it will boot using the default kdm login which i have set as default === vishnoo is now known as vish [10:08] Hey guys, since I updated my laptop with Maverick two days ago, my mousepointer is invisible... :( That makes navigating the desktop a bit difficult. Does anyone have the same problem? [10:18] ArneGoetje: maybe try removing the "unclutter" package? That's a bit weird though [10:19] chipset is i855. Even in gdm there i no moue pointer. [10:19] tseliot: already removed and rebooted. Problem is still there. [10:19] any idea how to debug? [10:20] ArneGoetje: is it always invisible? [10:21] tseliot: yes, just when I hover above buttons or list entrie, those get hilighted. But the mousepointer remains invisible. [10:24] ok [10:25] RAOF: did you upload the UMS driver for i855? [10:25] someone on +1 is also complaining about the same ^^ problem [10:25] it's like invisible, when it hovers on objects they highlight, and I can click on them, but just can't see it [10:27] ArneGoetje, vish: have you filed a bug report about it? [10:27] tseliot: no, since I don't know which package would be the right one [10:27] I think you can file it against the -intel driver [10:27] tseliot: i havent noticed the problem , i'll ask user to join here.. :) [10:29] ArneGoetje: "ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-video-intel" should do it [10:29] vish: ok, thanks [10:29] tseliot: running it right now [10:29] thanks [10:29] tseliot: lelamal is the one noticing the same issue.. [10:30] lelamal: what graphics card do you have? [10:30] hi all, I'm experiencing the disappeared pointer issue [10:30] lelamal: I'm filing a bug about it [10:31] it's on the laptop, I'm booting it now [10:31] it should be an integrated intel [10:34] lelamal: lspci -vv to find out [10:35] ArneGoetje: Device: 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device [10:35] Vendor: Intel Corporation [10:35] lelamal: I have the same chip [10:36] ArneGoetje: ok, so it's something hardware-related, right? [10:41] tseliot: I typed the wrong username before. anyway, this issue occurred only after yesterday's round of updates [10:41] gaa... launchpad timeouts again... cannot file bug report. :( [10:42] tseliot: ok, bug 613377 [10:42] Launchpad bug 613377 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "mouse pointer is invisible (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/613377 [10:42] lelamal: ok, same card [10:42] lelamal: ^^ [10:42] yes, please have a look at that bug report and see if it's the same problem [10:49] tseliot: yes, it is. I subscribed to it. is there any other detail I can provide or anything else I can do at this point? === supremeapachelog is now known as apachelogger [10:56] lelamal: nothing that I can think of. I'll have a look at the bug report ASAP [10:57] ok then, thanks everyone! [12:07] ArneGoetje: can you try using the following xorg.conf (in /etc/X11/ ) please? http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/473049/ [12:13] tseliot: will do after dinner [12:14] ArneGoetje: ok, if I'm not around, please post the result in the bug report [12:14] tseliot: ok [12:15] thanks [12:32] tseliot: doesn't help either [12:33] ArneGoetje: ok. BTW you can try the legacy driver and see what happens: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Bugs/Lucidi8xxFreezes [12:33] (even though you're not experiencing freezes) [12:34] ArneGoetje: and disable KMS when using those packages [12:34] * tseliot -> lunch === yofel_ is now known as yofel [12:48] tseliot: doesn't help. with KMS disabled, it doesn't even boot. [13:34] ArneGoetje: ok [13:38] is there a newer nvidia driver floating around cuz im having some really bad graphics issues with the nvidia current driver in lucid [14:10] eagles0513875: have a look at the x-updates ppa: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates [14:10] tseliot: thanks [14:10] np [14:11] tseliot: im not sure if my problem is xorg related or nvidia current related [14:12] eagles0513875: what graphics issues are you experiencing? [14:13] for starters one issue is at random times plasma crashes and im working on kde for instance my irc client kvirc has all the icons which are blurred for some reason if i restart plasma-desktop it fixes that issue [14:13] tseliot: its multiple issues [14:14] I think I've read about that bug about plasma, I'm not sure if there's a fix already but if you file a bug report against the nvidia driver I can ask NVIDIA to have a look at it [14:15] but please try the new driver first [14:15] just to be sure that it's not already fixed [14:15] tseliot: whats the name of the driver in that repo [14:18] eagles0513875: the source is nvidia-graphics-drivers - 256.44-0ubuntu0sarvatt~lucid. nvidia-current is the package [14:19] tseliot: once i add the repo to my list ill just have to update? and thats it or uninstall the current driver i have then reinstall [14:20] eagles0513875: just install nvidia-current with "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current". The driver should be upgraded correctly. Don't upgrade anything else [14:20] ok standby [14:21] well bugger [14:21] plasma just crashed on me === cndougla_ is now known as cnd [14:43] tseliot: are there any plasma updates floating around? [14:44] eagles0513875: you might want to ask in #kubuntu-devel [14:45] im banned from there :( [16:01] tseliot: how can i just upgrade my video driver without upgrading anythign else? [16:02] eagles0513875: you can do as I said ^^ [16:02] just install nvidia-current with "sudo apt-get install nvidia-current". The driver should be upgraded correctly. [16:02] #oh ok [16:03] here goes nothing [16:06] tseliot: will let ya know how it went after rebooting [16:16] tseliot: should i download the updates that there are for xorg? [16:17] eagles0513875: no, just the nvidia driver [16:18] The following NEW packages will be installed: libx11-xcb1 libxcb-dri2-0 [16:18] The following packages will be upgraded: fglrx-modaliases nvidia-173-modaliases nvidia-96-modaliases nvidia-settings xserver-xorg-video-ati xserver-xorg-video-intel xserver-xorg-video-radeon [16:18] will let this run for a while and see if the issue is resolved [18:52] RAOF: taken a look at my wacom-source package yet?
