Sarvattactually, it would be best if you updated your system first to see if it still happens, a new major mesa upgrade just went in 00:00
DinkI guess that is a no it is not enabled. Says I am running mutter00:00
Dinkmaverick netbook edition00:00
Sarvattah so you're running UNE, it could be something else.. definitely try updating to get the new mesa and see if it still happens there00:01
Dinkwhat package can I check via apt-cache policy to see if its the latest you are talking about00:01
Sarvattlibgl1-mesa-dri, version 7.9~git2010090900:02
Dinkk00:02
Sarvattit might not be accepted yet actually00:02
Dink7.8.2-2ubuntu2  here00:03
DinkSo yeah guess it is not. Using the pdx repo which I think is current00:03
Sarvattyour problem is probably that UNE is freezing for you, those errors are pretty much harmless and if it was the server crashing you'd get more info or if it was a GPU hang you wouldn't be able to just restart X like that on that machine. I think there's a pretty high chance that the new mesa will fix that for you when its up00:06
DinkOhh and another thing.. Sometimes when I click on a window to move it I see the hand to move but it moves another window00:06
DinkSarvatt, ok will keep a look out for it.00:07
SarvattI know that backtrace in your xorg.0.log.old is caused by the copy-fb patch to x-x-video-intel though for sure and it happens on server shutdown pretty much all the time, haven't been able to figure that one out yet :(00:07
DinkAhh. So is there anytihng I can run from vt1 when all this happens to help figure out what is going on ?00:08
DinkTo figure out whatever package is causing it.00:09
Sarvattmaybe check ~/.xsession-errors from VT1 while X is still running to see if anything stands out when it happens?00:10
DinkYeah lots of stuff there. I just reproduced it00:12
Dinkis there a pastebin I can sent it to ?00:13
Sarvatthave pastebinit installed? just pastebinit ~/.xsession-errors if so, would probably be better to save it somewhere and attach it to the bug though00:13
Dinkhttp://pastebin.com/DM1gaNFG00:15
DinkNot pretty huh00:18
Sarvattpretty standard for unity.. definitely not pretty :)00:20
DinkWell at least I know I can reproduce it on the fly :P00:21
DinkJust want to get the bug to the correct people and with the correct info.00:22
Sarvattwell, i'd check if the mesa update fixes things, if not i'd move the bug over to the unity package or ping me and I'll do it. just responded that those errors are red herrings and the real problem is somewhere higher up in the stack. you might want to look through bugs against unity for people having freezing problems if you want to try to find something similar that might have a workaround in it to get it working for now, I'm about to head out 00:25
Sarvattfor the night though so can't dig into it more at the moment00:25
DinkSarvatt, cool. Thanks for the time and effort you put in. I will look at the unity bugs and see if that mesa package fixes things. Thanks again !!!00:26
Sarvattupdated the title, can you maybe explain what you do to reproduce it a bit more in the bug? is it always when you alt-tab for instance or clicking between windows?00:27
Sarvattthat'd be a big help if so :)00:28
Dinkok will do00:28
Sarvattguess I need to force myself to start using unity one of these days, been quite happy with just docky + appmenu-gtk + go-home-applet + compiz/metacity + indicator-applet-complete on my netbook..00:40
DinkDoes those mesa packages get renamed ?00:42
Dinkor could I try installing them by hand and it should replace existing.00:42
Dinklibgl1-mesa-glx_7.9~git20100909-0ubuntu1_i386.deb00:42
DinkI probably shouldn't be using the une on this netbook anyways since I mostly have it plugged into my monitor. Its basically my primary computer.00:44
User1Hello, the latest libgl1-mesa packages causes white screen after login.04:40
User1It basically breaks mutter/unity04:56
DinkSarvatt, the new mesa package actually broke unity/mutter even more. Sorry man did not fix my issue. I reverted back to the previous version.05:18
apwRAOF, poke08:52
apwSarvatt, about ?09:31
gordhey guys, seems the latest updates have broken all clutter based applications, including unity. we suspect intel drivers 10:57
njpatelhi, with latest updates from maverick gl seems to be partially broken on my Intel i965 chip, and mostly broken on i94510:59
gordnjpatel, i just said that here :P10:59
njpatelheh, woops :)10:59
sabdflhi folks13:24
sabdflis there a bug # for the white-screen-on-login issue, with the current intel drivers, mesa and unity?13:25
tjaaltonsabdfl: some recent gpu lockup issues, but no bugs that mention whitescreen symptoms13:34
tjaaltonsome have mentioned the issue here though13:35
tjaaltonraof is in xds, sarvatt not awake yet and iäm at a conference, so there haven't been people to look into the issue13:36
aradavmor2 filed one against unity: bug 63892113:42

tjaaltonthe real package in this case would be mesa13:48
sabdflok,  thanks, the mesa link is useful13:54
sabdflwas the mesa change a big one? easy to bisect for the culprit?13:55
tjaaltonhuge :)13:55
tjaaltonbut if it affects only intel, then it's easier to bisect13:56
gordand it affects any clutter application, seems like intel + clutter = fail13:56
tjaaltonmaybe clutter uses some more advanced features? is compiz affected as well?13:58
sabdflcompiz isn't affected, if i correctly followed some of the chatter13:59
gordcompiz works fine, so does glxgears14:00
tjaaltonso that narrows it down even more14:00
gordso it seems that clutter is getting BadDrawable X errors when making its glx window14:02

njpatelSarvatt, , 965 is broken too, fwiw15:51
njpateloh, I can test too15:51
Sarvattjust wanted to know if it was happening across multiple generations, I can reproduce it on 945 luckily. bisecting this is going to be rough, writing up an upstream bug report at the moment but most everyone is at XDS :(15:51

Sarvatthe's at a conference until next week :(16:33

kenvandineyeah... :/16:33
WubbbiSarvatt: do you need any help? I have time atm! ^^16:33
Sarvatti'm bisecting it in mesa now but it's going to take quite some time, mesa doesn't exactly build fast even with a minimal config16:34
JanCSarvatt: RAOF just has to offer free beer at XDS to everyone who helps fix this  ;)16:34
WubbbiSarvatt: just take your time. But please do it the most fast way. I cant use me netbook atm xD16:35
jcristauJanC: interesting.. maybe i should get on it then.16:35

Sarvattkenvandine: he pushed a bunch of changes and was ready for the upload, asked me to try to get it uploaded while he was gone16:51
DinkSarvatt, sorry for throwing this at you while that is going on... The bug I initially reported about the "freezing" I have not been able to reproduce it without an external monitor,keyboard,mouse present. It seems to only happen when those things are connected.16:57
DinkShould I still move it to Unity ?16:58
rickspencer3Sarvatt, kenvandine can someone give me a quick run down of the situation wrt mesa and unity?16:58
kenvandineSarvatt, ^^ please16:58
kenvandinei told rickspencer3 everything i know already :)16:59
* Sarvatt explodes :)17:00
kenvandineafaict if we don't have a lead to a fix by now we should just revert 17:00
kenvandinewe can't afford to have UNE completely hosed17:01
kenvandinethat's my $0.0217:01
kenvandinealthough i would love to see 7.9 make it in 17:01
kenvandineas an ati user17:01
Sarvattthe mesa update broke unity, RAOF apparently had it fixed but I don't see any fix and he's at a conference, I can reproduce it on 945 and am in the middle of bisecting where it started17:01
kenvandinesarvatt: apparently not just unity... anything clutter17:02
kenvandineat least that is what i heard17:02
rickspencer3Sarvatt should we not revert the change until we know what is going on?17:02
Sarvatt<Sarvatt> want me to prepare a revert to upload? I'm not confident this can be fixed in a reasonable timeframe17:03
Sarvatt<Sarvatt> <Sarvatt> I think we should wait for RAOF to pop on though17:03
Sarvattincase he has a fix he forgot to commit and he should be on sometime today17:03
rickspencer3Sarvatt, well, perhaps we should give it a few hours, and then revert if we can't contact him17:04
* Sarvatt nods17:04
rickspencer3skaet, here's the situation as I understand it:17:04
rickspencer31. several teams need mesa 7.9 (a component of xorg-xserver)17:04
rickspencer32. mesa 7.9 has not been working for Intel and AMD hardware, or nvidia hardware running free drivers17:05
rickspencer33. RAOF may or may not have thought that he fixed the issue17:05
Sarvatt^ with clutter based apps17:05
rickspencer34. RAOF pushed an upload yesterday, and then left for a conference17:05
Sarvattit works significantly better otherwise17:05
rickspencer35. Unity is clutter based, and the bug makes clutter display just a white screen17:06
rickspencer36. So anyone running unity without an proprietary nvidia driver gets a white screen17:06
Sarvattunity has no fallback if there is a problem, and I believe it is auto logging in so people can't just pick a gnome session that will work at the moment17:06
rickspencer3so, if we revert, Kubutu breaks again, Linaro is screwed, etc...17:07
rickspencer3but if we don't, well Unity is unusable17:07
rickspencer3so we have to decide ...17:07
rickspencer3keep Unity broken until we fix it, or ...17:07
rickspencer3roll back now and leave Kubuntu and others broken17:08
Sarvattalso no hope of the new intel GPU's coming out having working 3D in 10.1017:08
kenvandinerock meet hard place17:08
skaeturk.  not nice at all.17:08
rickspencer3so I am proposing that we sit tight until we can get RAOF engaged17:08
skaetthanks for the summary,  it helps put the bugs I was seeing in context.17:08
rickspencer3I suspect we are missing some critical information17:08
rickspencer3let me check with the Unity team and see if they are blocked today17:09
kenvandinei fear he has no fix... :/17:09
rickspencer3because they have lots of bugs I want fixed17:09
rickspencer3kenvandine, I can't imagine that he would have pushed that change without a fix17:09
kenvandinerickspencer3, kind of... they need to manually revert17:09
SarvattI haven't had any luck debugging it but am in the middle of bisecting, it could end up being something simple but its 9 months of developement to bisect through17:09
Sarvattironic that this upload fixed unity on r600+, also 3D works on ati HD5000 series cards17:10
rickspencer3Sarvatt the last time I talked to RAOF, he ws working on it17:10
rickspencer3so he must have some data, and I can't imagine that he would have intentionally busted Unity like this17:11
skaetrickspencer3,  several unity bugs were closed between Friday and yesterday,  which ones are you concerned about?17:11
rickspencer3skaet, there is are a slew of issues, no way I could list them out17:12
gordFYI, this isn't a unity problem, its a clutter problem17:13
rickspencer3but njpatel and his team are very prductive17:13
gordno clutter application works on the latest mesa17:13
rickspencer3gord, right, but it impacts the productivity of the unity team17:13
rickspencer3or it might be17:13
gordrickspencer3, that would be me ;)17:13
rickspencer3heh17:13
rickspencer3okay, I was just asking elsewhere17:13
Sarvatti've tried the latest 1.2 branch clutter git and it's no different there at least17:13
rickspencer3gord, are you currently blocked?17:13
gordrickspencer3, no, but i have nvidia, anyone on intel graphics will be17:13
rickspencer3Sarvatt I am certain that RAOF did all this analysis already17:13
Sarvattother clutter apps not working is interesting because I didn't experience the same thing when I'm on xorg-edgers with the same mesa version, worth checking if xorg-edgers is broken in the same way17:18
brycehheya, mesa troubles?17:19
Sarvattbecause that'd put the problem outside of mesa17:19
Sarvattheyo bryceh, yeah its nuts today17:19
rickspencer3bryceh, 17:19

rickspencer3 roll back now and leave Kubuntu and others broken17:19
rickspencer3bryceh, did RAOF discuss any of this with you?17:19
njpatelmutter without the unity plugin (mutter --replace --mutter-plugins="") is broken too17:19
rickspencer3njpatel, yeah, RAOF knew about this before17:20
Sarvattnjpatel: white screen or just freezes?17:20
rickspencer3so I don't understand why it was uploaded without a fix in place17:20
Sarvattnjpatel: if its freezes does CLUTTER_VBLANK=none fix it for you too?17:20
rickspencer3Sarvatt I think our current focus should be on figuring out what happened with the uploads rather than trying to diagnose the problem right now17:21
rickspencer3I don't think we'll get until we know if RAOF thinks it was fixed17:22
kenvandineif edgers works... we can try to bisect the difference there17:22
njpatelSarvatt, white screen17:23
Sarvattwell we're stalled waiting to contact RAOF in that case, if it turns out he doesn't have a fix the bisect will help :)17:23
rickspencer3good idea, see if there a patch in there17:23
Sarvattnjpatel: hmm, CLUTTER_VBLANK=none mutter --replace works fine here17:23
njpatelSarvatt, both mutter with unity and mutter without unity, the process is still running and handling requests17:23
Sarvatton 94517:23
rickspencer3Sarvatt fair enough, but I'm certain that you are on well trod ground17:23
rickspencer3the last time I talked to RAOF about this, he knew about the problem and was working on a fix17:23
njpatelSarvatt, let me try cluttervblank=none, hold up17:23
rickspencer3Sarvatt what exactly did he ask you to upload?17:24
njpatelSarvatt, woohoo, CLUTTER_VBLANK=none mutter --replace --mutter-plugins=libunity-mutter & works!17:25
rickspencer3woah17:25
rickspencer3back in business!17:25
njpatelSarvatt, it wasn't working before I restarted :/17:25
njpatelyessir, awesome, I don't need to setup my desktop now17:25
njpateli mean, vblanking would be very much appreciated, but at least we're not blocked now17:25
Sarvattrickspencer3: we both have been working on it in debian git for the FFe, he merged in his work a few days ago and once the FFe was granted he asked if I would upload what was there since he would be gone17:26
njpatelthat crash wasn't related, but it works, so thanks17:27
rickspencer3Sarvatt so do you think RAOF believed that it was fixed?17:27
brycehsorry, was in middle of another meeting, but now over17:27
rickspencer3bryceh, understood17:27
brycehrickspencer3, no I hadn't discussed mesa with raof previously17:27
rickspencer3dang it17:27
rickspencer3man, I bungled this badly :(17:27
Sarvattnjpatel: whoa, you're right!17:28
SarvattCLUTTER_VBLANK=none mutter --replace --mutter-plugins=libunity-mutter works here17:28
rickspencer3njpatel, so I take it we can't ship without vblanking in Unity?17:28
njpatelrickspencer3, it would give artefacts and bad rendering of videos etc, it's not ideal. I can speak to the team about the consequences tomorrow to be certain, though17:29
Sarvattnow why does that work but manually invoking unity not? do clutter env variables not pass through to unity?17:29
rickspencer3njpatel, hmmm17:30
rickspencer3can we apply it as a work around until we get this mesa thing properly sorted?17:30
brycehrickspencer3, ok so how can I help? need me to upload some bits, or revert mesa, or do diagnostics or...?17:30
rickspencer3bryceh, well, I was hoping that you could sniff around and see what RAOF was up to17:32
rickspencer3I suspect that we are pissing a piece of the puzzle17:32
brycehhmm, artifacts and bad video rendering sounds less severe than white screens17:32
brycehrickspencer3, ok17:32
brycehrickspencer3, fwiw he's likely on a plane at the moment, maybe in a day or two he'll be online at the conference17:32
rickspencer3bryceh, if you have some bandwidth to help Sarvatt find the root cause, that would be really useful as well17:32
rickspencer3*sigh*17:33
brycehalthough X conferences notoriously have had bad wireless so who knows17:33
brycehok17:33
rickspencer3I can call the airline and ask them to turn the plane around17:33
kenvandinehehe17:33
brycehrickspencer3, can you drop a quick note to deryck.hodge@canonical.com ? 17:33
SarvattI'm almost positive he marked down that he was arriving on wednesday france time, let me check the XDS wiki17:34
Sarvattnot that he'll jump on IRC first thing or anything :)17:34
vishbug with :  00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation N10 Family Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:a011] (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])17:34
vishshould be tagged in the title as?17:34
rickspencer3Sarvatt well, his cell phone did not pick up, and it's middle of the night, so I can't call his house17:35
njpatelrickspencer3, Sarvatt you can add it to /etc/environment to get it picked up17:35
rickspencer3kenvandine, can you do something like njpatel suggested to get Unity working for the next few days until this is sorted?17:36
brycehsarvatt, are there bug #'s for the issue(s)?17:36
Sarvattyeah he didn't mark dates on the wiki - http://www.x.org/wiki/Events/XDS2010/Attendees17:36
Sarvattbryceh: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/mesa/+bug/63880817:37
ubot4Launchpad bug 638808 in mesa (Ubuntu) (and 2 other projects) "No unity board but White screen after GDM (affects: 5) (dups: 2) (heat: 32)" [Critical,Confirmed]17:37
kenvandineyeah17:37
Sarvattbryceh: if you have an intel on maverick its easier to test in a gnome session by just launching unity17:37
Sarvattno quick access to a terminal in unity?!17:40
brycehnjpatel, from the irc backlog it sounds like you have a workaround now by turning off vblanking... how practical is that as a global workaround in general until this gets fixed?  Can you control that param in the packaging sufficiently?17:44
Sarvattit's been done many times in the past to fix UNE17:45
kenvandinenjpatel, i should be able to set that in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ right?17:45
Sarvattit's always the first thing I check when something clutter related is broken and has fixed it all but one time (that memory leak)17:46
kenvandinebryceh, ^^17:46
brycehkenvandine, bet you're right, can you easily give it a test?17:47
WubbbiSarvatt: How is your status atm? Can we get a fix today? Just a question 17:47
Wubbbi^^17:48
bryceh(I'm not conversant in how mutter is launched)17:48
kenvandinebryceh, just did, that worked17:48
kenvandinei'll stuff that in the package for now17:48
jcristauwould seem easier to change an if in clutter than adding a random conffile17:49
brycehjcristau, except for testing purposes, something folks can fiddle in a conf file might be more convenient17:52
brycehbut whatever works17:53
kenvandinei'd rather the conf file... much easier for people to test fixes... since i would really love to see a proper fix :)17:54
brycehhttps://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/616997 looks like a dupe of this issue, yes?17:55

brycehalthough ati not intel, maybe similar but different issue17:56
Sarvattvish: can you try CLUTTER_VBLANK=none mutter --replace --mutter-plugins=libunity-mutter in a gnome session on your rv515?17:58
vishSarvatt: on the ati.. it dint work for unity , but VBLANK worked for mutter.. comment 6317:59
vishi'll try again , from today's daily if you want .. :)17:59
Sarvattvish: specifically the command I said though, launching unity doesn't seem to honor the clutter env variables18:00
vishah.. cool.. just a min then..18:01

brycehsarvatt, you had mentioned you'd narrowed it down a bit via bisecting?  what is the most recent version that does not have the issue?18:14
Sarvattit depends on what the issue is, I was looking for the bad renderbuffer format error but the first step halfway between 7.8.2 and what we have doesn't have that but still crashes the same way18:15
kenvandineif it works in edgers, can we just compare the ppa to maverick?18:16
Sarvatthaven't tried edgers yet, been stuck in gdb, will check now18:16
brycehok, so 7.8.2 is the most recent known-good? would that be 7.8.2-2ubuntu2 ?18:16
brycehalso, I'm not seeing the 7.9 bits in the ubuntu mesa git branch, is it committed somewhere else?18:17
Sarvatt_ubuntu-maverick branch, sorry18:17
brycehaha18:17
vish_Sarvatt_: no go with that command:  http://paste.ubuntu.com/494303/  and  xsession errors: http://paste.ubuntu.com/494300/18:18
vish_Sarvatt_: but mutter works with VBLANK=none18:18
vish_need any debugging?18:19
Sarvatt_vish_: can you try a few more times?18:19
vish_ok.. :)18:19
Sarvatt_thats the *other* error I get18:19
Sarvatt_though I haven't had that with CLUTTER_VBLANK=none, I get that clutk error about 90% of the time without it and the mesa implementation error the other times18:20
Sarvatt_edgers is broken too18:20
brycehmmm18:20
vish_oh wow! if i keep trying that unity gets angry ;p 18:21
vish_it crashes the terminal itself ;p18:21
Sarvatt_hah18:21
Sarvatt_I think that meant it loaded18:21
Sarvatt_loading mutter closes gnome-terminal here18:21
Sarvatt_i do it from a VT with DISPLAY=:018:21
kenvandinevish_, was the terminal maximized?18:22
kenvandinethere is a bug related to windows maximizing :)18:23
kenvandinemakes this even more fun18:23
vish_kenvandine: nope..18:23
vish_yeah not that one.. :)18:23
vish_Sarvatt_: ok , i tried to add an exec file with that command and launched it, unity does not load .. so the terminal shutting down seems to not be the issue?18:24
vish_i just have no WM when i try like that18:25
brycehSarvatt_, you tested 7.9.0+git20100913.e7eff0cf-0ubuntu0sarvatt  ?  Noting it in the bug18:25
Sarvatt_yeah20100911 3ad3cbfb18:26
Sarvatt_err minus the yeah part :)18:26
vish_Sarvatt_: from vt , its :  DISPLAY=:0 CLUTTER_VBLANK=none mutter --replace --mutter-plugins=libunity-mutter18:28
vish_or the other way around?18:28
Sarvatt_0913 failed to build and i didn't notice it18:28
Sarvatt_vish_: yeah18:28
vish_Sarvatt: so i did a $ DISPLAY=:0 CLUTTER_VBLANK=none mutter --replace --mutter-plugins=libunity-mutter 2>&1 | tee unity.log     , as soon as i get back to the session no WM > http://paste.ubuntu.com/494310/18:36
vish_and no unity either ;)18:36
* vish_ waits for further instructions.. :)18:41
kenvandinevish_, that is the error i get on my old ati laptop... been getting it for ages18:42
kenvandinehaven't tried today18:42
vish_kenvandine: yeah.. unity doesnt work yet on this ati.. but i noticed this white screen when i was testing Sarvatt's mesa ppa iteslf18:43
Sarvattlaunch unity 5 times get 4 different errors, ugh!18:43
bryceho_O18:44
* vish_ still needs to update AOA18:44
Sarvattmesa implementation error is a red herring for whatever the real problem is though, says that when it works fine too18:46
Sarvattyet another new one that launch - Bug in window manager: Unexpected X error: BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) serial 2154 error_code 3 request_code 148 minor_code 1)18:47
brycehok, this maverick upgrade has 35 min to go, I'm going to go grab food and stuff and bbiab18:59
vishok , Unity is broken in AOA too! :)19:06
Sarvatt_vish: thats the problem we're looking at :)19:06
vishcool! glad that i dint update :)19:07
Sarvattshould be worked around by  https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/maverick-changes/2010-September/007682.html 19:08
vishyup , CLUTTER_VBLANK=none mutter --replace --mutter-plugins=libunity-mutter19:13
vishworks ,19:13
vishbut not CLUTTER_VBLANK=none unity or CLUTTER_VBLANK=none unity -p19:13
Sarvattyeah that threw me off too that CLUTTER_VBLANK is dropped launching unity directly19:13
vishsabdfl: and in AOA too , mutter does not work with mesa 7.9 , it needs to be run as  CLUTTER_VBLANK=none mutter --replace  only19:14
vishoops, Sarvatt ^19:14
vish;)19:14
sabdflvish: i'll test that now, if I drop off IRC, you know why :-)19:15
Sarvattvish: that'll be in https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/maverick/+source/ubuntu-netbook-default-settings/0.8.6 :)19:15

WubbbiSarvatt: Thank you ;D only 32 minutes left until I can use the Netbook-Desktop again :D19:20
* Dink awaits for the new package as well19:21
Dinkits in 0.8.6 right ?19:23
Sarvattyeah19:23
Wubbbiyes19:23
Dinkgot happy for a sec when I saw it in my update list... checked policy and it was 0.8.519:24
WubbbiSarvatt: So this is just a Workaround. The real Bug is still there?19:24
Sarvattyep, indeed it's just a workaround19:24
Wubbbik19:24
vishjust the unity part gets fixed , the mesa task can still be open i guess..19:25
WubbbiWhen you deactivate Clutter, does this have any funcionality we lose with it?19:25
Sarvattyou can echo "export CLUTTER_VBLANK=none" | sudo tee /etc/X11/Xsession.d/80clutter_vblank_none if you dont want to wait for the package19:27
Sarvattit doesn't deactivate clutter, it deactivates clutter's perpetually broken vsync implementation19:27
DinkSarvatt, I added a note to my "freezing" bug. It only happens when I have external mouse,keyboard,monitor connected. It works fine when using just the netbook.19:27
Sarvattoh? thats interesting19:28
Dinkyeah very19:28
WubbbiSarvatt: Aha .. k ... hehe sounds funny ... broken vsync. Seems like we have to trow a book to the devs of clutter xD19:28
DinkWonder if its related to dual monitor support something that sorts19:29
Dinklol, love it when I click on an opened window and another window resizes itself automatically19:30
vishheh , time to build now is 1hr ;)19:33
DinkWhere you get that info ?19:34
JanCon LP probably19:35
Wubbbivish: ufff ... I wanna build my own. Where can I DL the source code?19:35

vishWubbbi: ^ or simpler if you use Sarvat_t's echo..19:36
WubbbiIs it possible to build Ubuntu Packages on Windows ( I dont mean Vbox with it ) ? ... just a question19:36
Wubbbivish: Well ... But when I build my own ( taking less then 1 minuten because it is that small  ) its like the same. ^^19:37
Wubbbiubuntu-netbook-default-settings_0.8.6.tar.gz .. SC?19:38
DinkWubbbi, yeah19:40
Dinkshould contain the debian dir and everything else in there19:40
Wubbbik19:40
brycehSarvatt, have you confirmed that downgrading mesa does indeed make the regression go away?19:47
SarvattI don't use unity and was taking the fact it worked before and not now at face value, but I just tested 7.8.2-2ubuntu2 and it works19:52
kenvandinebryceh, i haven't downgraded... but i can confirm that unity worked fine... i did an upgrade that brought in mesa an mono... nothing else19:52
kenvandineand boom19:52
kenvandinein fact i think mono was earlier in the evening... this update was just the mesa packages19:53
brycehkenvandine, do you happen to have an earlier kernel you could try booting?19:53
Sarvattit's fun hitting other unrelated bugs every bisect step :(19:53
kenvandinebryceh, sure... 19:53
kenvandinealthough i am pretty certain i had reboot before the mesa upgrade19:54
kenvandinebrb19:54
brycehwe've seen a couple times in the past with last minute mesa bugs like this where the actual root bug was not an error in mesa but rather something in the kernel which the newer mesa simply exposed better19:54
kenvandineis it esc to get the grub menu?19:54
kenvandinei always forget :)19:54
kenvandineor tab?19:55
Dinkshift I think it is now19:55
kenvandineok, brb19:55
Dinksame here,brb going to try latest mesa and netbook-default packages on my aod250.19:57
WubbbiSarvatt: I have done building Ubuntu-Netbook-default-settings. Is it normal that I have 2 .deb files now? One calls "Ubuntu-netbook-unity-default-settings_0.8.6_all.deb" and the other  calls "Ubuntu-netbook-default-settings_0.8.6_all.deb". What to install now? both?19:57
DinkWubbbi, I think its just default, well it was for me... you can check to see what is currently installed19:57
DinkI don't think you can hve both19:58
Wubbbik ... so the one without "unity"?!19:58
DinkIt was for me.....19:59
DinkGoing to reboot as soon as my updates are done to test it all19:59
Dinkspeaking of which, wish me luck... bbiab19:59
kenvandinebryceh, confirmed... previous 2 kernels busted the same way19:59
WubbbiI reboot to now to see if it works ;D19:59
brycehkenvandine, ok thanks19:59
kenvandinenp19:59
brycehkenvandine, one other thing - can you check if there is a backtrace at the end of your Xorg.0.log?20:00
Sarvatt_darnit, unity crashes the server on every bisect step so far, intel invalidate stuff20:00
kenvandinebryceh, sure20:00
brycehI notice the log attached to the bug report has a trace, but not clear if that corresponds directly to the issue20:00
brycehSarvatt_, do you get backtraces?20:00
Sarvatt_does it mention FreeAllClientResources? if so its not20:00

Sarvatt_the .old was probably from just shutting down normally20:02

kenvandineit works great on my old intel classmate20:07
WubbbiI was young, stupid and had the money xD20:08
slangasekWubbbi: you probably mean that plymouth is being killed every time, fwiw; there's a bug in ureadahead that triggers the kernel's OOM killer, not much plymouthd can do to help that20:08
kenvandinei thnk it's a 94520:08

brycehWubbbi, gma500?20:08
Wubbbislangasek: ohhh k ... thx 4 info20:08
slangasek(the same problem would have affected usplash back when we were using that, assuming we could even keep usplash working)20:08

Sarvatt_he wouldn't be able to use unity if it was, probably is 94520:09

WubbbiI cant even whatch Youtube Videos in 360p without stucks! -.-20:10
bryceh945/965 typically have been the best supported for intel20:10
brycehnot to say they've not been without tons and tons of bugs ;-)20:11
DinkWubbbi, I haven't had any issues until recently with my weird freezing bug20:11
kenvandinemy 945 on the classmate is great20:11
Wubbbi"for intel" seems not to be such a high categorie xD20:11
Sarvatt_Dink: if it only happens with an external monitor/keyboard plugged in I doubt it's unity where the problem is, dunno if you moved that bug over or not but I wouldn't now :)20:11
DinkSarvatt_, doh I moved it... Should I move it back ?20:11
Sarvatt_yeah20:11
Dinkk20:11
slangasekSarvatt_: so did this mesa bug affect unity on all systems, or is it hardware-specific?  I'm wondering how this got missed in the FFe vetting20:11
Sarvatt_just intel, but non intel had problems with it before already20:12
slangasek/all/ intel, or specific intel cards?20:12
slangasekbecause the FFe did say new mesa had been tested on intel hardware20:12
Sarvatt_all intel apparently20:12
slangasekok20:12
DinkSarvatt_, mesa or xorg-intel ?20:12
slangasekI'll go beat up the folks who were asking for this FFe then :)20:13
* Sarvatt_ hides from slangasek!20:13
Sarvatt_we're waiting to hear back from RAOF who is at a conference, thinking he might have missed a fix in it because he mentioned to rickspencer3 specifically that he had a fix for this issue20:13
brycehSarvatt_, did he say he definitely had a fix?20:15
brycehSarvatt_, I'm poking around but not locating any evidence that there was a patch on hand... and if there was wouldn't he have included it?20:15
WubbbiI have a Intel 945GME ... is it the same as you Dink20:15
Wubbbi?20:15
DinkWubbbi, yeah20:15
rickspencer3he did not say that he had a fix20:15
rickspencer3he said he was working on it, and that's the last I heard20:16
rickspencer3Sarvatt_, bryceh ^20:16
DinkI have it connected to external monitor,keyboard,mouse20:16
WubbbiDink: k ... and do you can see Videos well? ... I only see pictures trying to come after and after xD20:16
brycehrickspencer3, ok20:16
rickspencer3bryceh, Sarvatt_ I just find it hard to believe that he would have pushed it in if he didn't have a plan20:16
DinkWubbbi, yeah I watch cnn video, metacafe, youtube fine20:16
slangasekSarvatt_: I meant RAOF / ScottK, but I can include you in the beatings if you wish :)20:17
WubbbiDink: CPU?20:17
DinkIntel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N270   @ 1.60GHz20:17
DinkIts an acer aod25020:17
slangasekSarvatt_: it's possible I misunderstood the bug summary; I thought "testing done: unity" meant unity had been regression-tested on intel20:18
WubbbiDink: duh ... the CPU is the same as mine ... o.O ... how could there be such a diffrent?20:18
Dinkgot that keyboard,mouse,external dvd, speakers, 2gb ram, and usb hub for 225$ on tigerdirect20:18
brycehrickspencer3, true.  I do have to admit that the final weeks of release the xorg hot seat has a lot, lot, lot of balls to juggle, it's easy to miss something20:18

Dinkhttp://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/20:30
DinkThat is where I just tested from20:30
brycehok guys, network testing is definitely off topic for this channel ;-)20:30
WubbbiDink: It dont matter. I start google.com and I takes 20 sec. to load it20:30
Dinkok let me rephrase that... so its "on topic". I used that site to test how my video card rendered the test result 20:32
Dink;)20:32
Wubbbihehe20:32
brycehDink, aha better ;-)20:33
brycehSarvatt, looking at the source, "Mesa %s implementation error" appears to be just a generic "something went wrong" error20:34
brycehwait, nevermind20:36
brycehok20:39
brycehMesa 7.9-devel implementation error: Bad renderbuffer format: 2120:39
brycehthis is occurring (I guess) in i915_set_draw_region() in a switch statement that examines irb->Base.Format20:40
brycehformat 21 appears to be MESA_FORMAT_A8 if I count my enums correctly20:41
brycehthat's certainly not covered in the switch20:41
brycehbut A8 sounds like it's two bytes of just alpha info20:41
brycehkenvandine, this making any sense to you?20:42
kenvandinebryceh, no... anything X related it greek to me20:43
kenvandinenjpatel, did you see that?20:43
brycehwell, it gives me some nice google fodder at least :-)20:44
kenvandinehehe20:44
njpatelno, it's not making sense, but I'm coming off the back of a 12hr day20:44
njpatel:)20:44
kenvandineslangasek, could you rescore https://edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-netbook-default-settings/0.8.6/+build/1961558 ?20:44
kenvandinethat feels like it is never going to build... and has the work around for this mesa bug20:45
brycehwell, what I *think* it means here is that unity is passing in a request for some sort of texture that's in a format mesa isn't prepared to deal with... like some texture that is pure alpha channel?20:45
brycehI'll keep poking20:46
njpatelmutter is passing, mutter20:46
njpatelactually, clutter is passing, clutter20:46
brycehmutter clutter sputter20:46
bryceh"some X client is passing..."  *grin*20:46
njpatellol20:47
brycehhmm, I see MESA_FORMAT_A8 referenced in the i965 code but not the i915 (aka 945) code... has anyone confirmed seeing this problem on i965 or newer hardware?20:48
kenvandinebryceh, is GM45 the same as 965?20:48
kenvandinei see it on GM4520:48
slangasekkenvandine: I'm not a buildd admin, sorry20:48
kenvandineah, sorry20:48
brycehhmm I think so lemme check20:48
* kenvandine looks for someone else :)20:49
Sarvattthe renderbuffer error shouldn't be there on 96520:49
Sarvatthttp://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=638342858894293246400d95a90d153c7f66719a20:49
slangasekGM45 is newer than 96520:49
slangaseker, as a chip - maybe you're asking if the code is the same :)20:50
Sarvattyeah its the same kenvandine 20:50
JanCAccording to intel's site that chipset contains a 4500MHD20:51
brycehyeah, cantiga right, yeah that's >=96520:52
DBOdont mind me, just here to watch the train wreck20:53
kenvandinehey DBO20:54
kenvandineyour new identity?20:54
kenvandinenew/old 20:54
kenvandine:)20:54
brycehsassy DBO?20:54
DBOmaybe I can get Jason on freenode20:54
* DBO checks20:54
DBObryceh, a little, had a rough day, I figure humor is the only solution20:54
* kenvandine rather likes DBO20:54
kenvandine:)20:54
DBOalso I like watching clutter fail20:55
Wubbbiseems like our Mesa friends didn't a good job :/ ... Have we told them that Clutter is working fine?21:04
brycehtbh it's probably Intel rather than mesa21:04
brycehI mean, the i9xx code in mesa, which is maintained by Intel, not the mesa folks21:04
Wubbbiha! I always knew that Intel is not perfect! xD ... Wel rather I like AMD more :P21:05
KnifeySpooneyHi, earlier my gpu hung and I had to go to a console to reboot. I saw that 'intel_gpu_dump' was running, then it finished, but I don't know where it logged to. Does anyone know where the intel log file is?21:17
bryceh /var/crash probably21:17
DinkSarvatt_, I have attached a short video of some of the things that occur with my bug. Hope it helps visualizing what I wrote.21:18
WubbbiDink: I wanna see it to. Have you got a link?21:18
Dinkhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/63849621:19
ubot4Launchpad bug 638496 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "[i945GME] Unity session freezing. (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,New]21:19
DinkThe video is what happens right before the freeze. It is when things start working funky. Then after a while of that BAM it freezes21:20
DinkWubbbi, do you experience any of that ?21:25
DinkOn an external monitor, windows dont move, get put in front when you click on it, and/or freezes everything up?21:25
brycehkenvandine, on your system do you also see the error message sarvatt sees?  Mesa 7.9-devel implementation error: Bad renderbuffer format: 2121:27
brycehfrom what I can tell, that exact error message would not occur on i965 or newer, so it seems like you wouldn't be seeing that particular error message21:27
brycehhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/494295/21:28
kenvandine<kenvandine> (unity:32356): ClutterGLX-CRITICAL **: Unable to make the stage window 0x5e0004f the current GLX drawable21:28
kenvandinethat is what i see21:28
kenvandineand crash21:28
brycehhrm21:29
brycehkenvandine, can you pastebin your full output when running unity?21:30
brycehboy it'd suck if there are multiple bugs going on here21:30
kenvandinenot right now21:30
kenvandinegotta get a few uploads done... soon :)21:30
brycehok, well that error message appears not to be an X error message (it's not in mesa's source code anyway), so isn't giving me much to go on21:31
kenvandineyeah, sorry... will try in a few21:33
WubbbiDink: I dont understand whats the issue in your video? seems to work fine21:39
DinkSometimes when I click on open windows it does not bring it to the top, when I try to move the window it moves another window. After that eventually everything freezes and I cant click, move, edit anything and have to hup mutter to get it work again.21:40
DinkAnd the strange part is this only happens when external monitor is connected21:41
DinkIf you look at the end of the video shows the exaple where I clicked on FF to move it and it moved xchat21:43
DinkBefore that it also showed where I click on xchat and it did not bring it to the top21:44
WubbbiSeems to be a variable mess in the source code. Sarvatt_ did you take a lot on it?21:44
Dinkand jsut now I have a pidgin window open and when I click on it to type, it types it in here and not there. I just alt-tab to it and it works.21:45
Wubbbilook21:45
DinkWubbbi, so you don't experience any of that ?21:46
WubbbiDink: not yet ...21:46
DinkDo you use your netbook with external monitor ?21:46
WubbbiDink: nope ... maybe thats the point ;)21:53
DinkAhh yeah to me it only happens when I do.21:54
DinkWorks fine when external monitor is not connected.21:54
SarvattCLUTTER_VBLANK=dri also works21:56
DinkIs it better setting it to dri vs none ?22:00
brycehSarvatt, I've reproduced the unity output you get, with the Bad renderbuffer format 21 error22:00
vishbryceh: oh... i'm not very familiar with unity.. i just reported my bug .. :)22:08
vishre: the comment on the RV515 bug.22:08
brycehvish, ok well I took a look but looks to me like more analysis needs done before it can be taken as an X bug22:09
brycehhard to tell what the issue is22:09
vishbryceh: dbarth mentioned it as a "Related to the disable-effects flag requirement"  , he might know more. i guess22:12
brycehhuh I've no idea what that means22:15
njpatelbryceh, vish, that only would be the issue if unity was effected, however mutter is, without unity plugin, so it can't be the effects framework22:18
njpatelif only unity was....*22:18
vishnjpatel: nutter works if the CLUTTER_VBLANK=none is used22:18
vishonly unity fails22:18
visherr , mutter ;)22:18
njpatelvish, I'm using Unity now with CLUTTER_VBLANK=none22:19
vishnjpatel: but it doesnt help in this ATI RV51522:19
njpatelvish,  the unity failure then is a different one (which is to do with effects), but that's not related to this issue with mesa22:19
njpatelvish, sorry, I thought you were talking about the issue currently with Clutter and the latest update to mesa22:19
vishnjpatel: nah , not related to today's WSOD! [ kenvandine ;) ]22:20
njpatelheh22:20
bryceh"white screen on _____" is a really generic symptom with 3D / mesa / X bugs, so just because the two cases have similar symptoms is no indication it's the same bug22:20
brycehindeed, different hardware, different timings when the issue was first noticed, different workarounds... all point to these being two separate bugs22:21
vishnjpatel: it was a problem even before , previously it would just keep reloading , and with mesa7.9 its just a blank white screen. its about Bug 616997 btw22:21
ubot4Launchpad bug 616997 in unity (Ubuntu) (and 3 other projects) "[RV515] Unity keeps reloading with a white background (affects: 8) (dups: 2) (heat: 54)" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/61699722:21
njpatelvish, yep, we got stalled on a workaround, I pinged the team for that this morning, hopefully we'll have an answer soon. Sorry it's taken so long, but it's harder to switchs tuff off then switch it on it seems :)22:22
vish\o/ unityyyyyyyyy soon!22:22
* njpatel wishes drivers just worked22:23
njpatelright now we have an issue that, only on intel it seems, maximising windows will cause them to close22:23
njpatelanyway, it's late here and time to go to sleep. have a good night all22:24
Sarvattdingding, regression happened between 0825 and 090922:27
Sarvattunity and clutter apps are fine on the 0825 snapshot we tested the hell out of22:28
* Sarvatt starts eyeing glx changes between those two dates22:29
brycehsarvatt, how can I best help?  22:30
Sarvattyow, quite a lot of glx changes between them :(22:32
jcristaukrh got taken down the glx rabbit hole22:35

brycehwell that narrows it down nicely23:51
Sarvattgit20100904.20bf5037 good23:52
DinkSarvatt, hmmm would any of these packages affect the problem I had.... gnome-shell, mesa-utils, gir1.0-* <-- removed libqt4-*, firefox upgraded ?? Things seem to work a lot better now. Haven't have any of my issues yet.23:52
Dinkgnome-shell, mesa-utils, girl1.0-* was removed. libqt4-* and firefox was upgraded23:53
brycehDink, come back later, we're a bit tied up on this release critical issue23:53
brycehand I suspect sarvatt's wearing out :-)23:54
