| RAOF | Now. Does this *still* crash X? Who knows! | 04:13 |
|---|---|---|
| RAOF | No! Cool! | 04:13 |
| RAOF | Oh, that does :( | 04:30 |
| RAOF | Ensuring X doesn't crash would be more fun if testing didn't mean that X crashed :( | 04:40 |
| ajmitch | at least when you find that X doesn't crash, you know you've done something right | 04:43 |
| RAOF | Well, yeha. | 04:46 |
| RAOF | Doesn't make the failure mode any less obnoxious :) | 04:56 |
| RAOF | I'm looking for a sponsor for a tiny mesa upload to fix crashes in clutter apps with multiple stages like Quadrapassel - http://cooperteam.net/Packages/mesa_7.9~git20100924-0ubuntu2.dsc | 09:15 |
| tjaalton | RAOF: check | 10:13 |
| tjaalton | uploaded | 10:15 |
| andrewaclt | hi, when I try and watch a movie (vcl or Movie player) xorg crashes it seems and it returns me to the login screen. The only thing funny in Xorg.log.old is "intel(0): drmDropMaster failed: Bad file descriptor." This started happening overnight :/ | 14:15 |
| andrewaclt | http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9907713#post9907713 describes my issue, if anybody is willing to take a look :) | 14:41 |
| Sarvatt | andrewaclt: it's because you have drm_kms_helper.poll=N, that only works on a newer kernel and prevents the module from loading on the older one unfortunately | 14:53 |
| Sarvatt | because the module parameter didn't exist back in 2.6.32 | 14:54 |
| andrewaclt | I see | 14:54 |
| andrewaclt | So it's loading the wrong module? | 14:54 |
| Sarvatt | it's not loading the module at all, if you remove that it should work again | 14:55 |
| andrewaclt | I see, thanks. | 14:55 |
| Sarvatt | no problem, sorry for not mentioning that when you were testing the newer kernel | 14:55 |
| andrewaclt | Sarvatt, Thanks, I'm glad a asked here, otherwise that would of taken me forever to figure out :) | 15:02 |
| Sarvatt | ugh, need to go through this mess of patches for xorg-server in maverick and see if one of them is the cause of server-1.9-branch failing to pass the tests now - http://launchpadlibrarian.net/56814698/buildlog_ubuntu-maverick-amd64.xorg-server_2:1.9.0%2Bgit20100930%2Bserver-1.9-branch.4d2542a1-0ubuntu0sarvatt_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz | 19:59 |
| ricotz | Sarvatt, hi, what do you think about adding kernel 2.6.36 to edgers? | 20:00 |
| Sarvatt | would be much appreciated if you want to put it in there | 20:01 |
| Sarvatt | are amd64 kernels building in PPA's again yet? | 20:02 |
| ricotz | would takes some time to upload it for me, but the current natty kernel runs fine here | 20:02 |
| ricotz | there is a commit which should solve this space issue | 20:02 |
| * Sarvatt nods | 20:02 | |
| ricotz | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-natty.git;a=commit;h=2a96002816aec5f2dae290d473ee3620090088b0 | 20:03 |
| Sarvatt | it could get hairy for external module users since they aren't going to bump the ABI till natty opens | 20:04 |
| ricotz | right, hmm | 20:04 |
| Sarvatt | wont be that long though and its not installed by default unless we do a meta package too anyway | 20:05 |
| ricotz | ok, i will upload it | 20:07 |
| Sarvatt | hmm maybe http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?h=server-1.9-branch&id=d4ef63f602325a9920dc1cbf64e3969dfa394d5f really did break the xserver tests | 20:15 |
| jcristau | there's a bugzilla about it regressing some stuff | 20:16 |
| jcristau | https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30267 | 20:17 |
| ubot4 | Freedesktop bug 30267 in Input/Core "openarena mouse faliure since dix: don't create core motion events for non-x/y valuators" [Normal,Reopened] | 20:17 |
| achiang | hello, which library provides this API - XkbChangeTypesOfKey() ; is it libxkbfile? | 21:40 |
| vish | gah! why does something in stock always not work for me :( | 21:41 |
| vish | if i use the mainline kernels, i dont have problems with X :( | 21:41 |
| jcristau | achiang: libX11 | 21:44 |
| achiang | jcristau: thank you. i have a bug with a test case | 21:44 |
| achiang | jcristau: it's present in lucid and still present in maverick. i haven't gotten around to testing upstream yet, because i haven't figured out how to test the latest upstream | 21:45 |
| vish | when did the drm changes land ? was that in .32-16 ? | 21:46 |
| Sarvatt | vish: yeah but there have been quite a few updates since then with drm bits from .34 and .35 stable even. what's wrong now? | 21:49 |
| jcristau | achiang: that function hasn't changed in years, it's either a server bug or it's not fixed upstream | 21:49 |
| jcristau | achiang: so best to file your bug there imo. | 21:49 |
| vish | Sarvatt: remember i had shown a video, of /only/ the guest session flickering? | 21:49 |
| achiang | jcristau: i don't know much about this actually; i'm passing the bug along for a customer who discovered it. would you like to see the test case? | 21:49 |
| vish | its been the same issue since then | 21:49 |
| Sarvatt | radeon? the new_pll problem? | 21:50 |
| vish | yup, thats the one | 21:50 |
| jcristau | achiang: i wouldn't know what to do with it :) | 21:50 |
| achiang | jcristau: or, i can just file an upstream bug, that's easy enough | 21:50 |
| jcristau | xkb scares me. | 21:50 |
| Sarvatt | they disabled new_pll on rv515 but i think you had a rv530? | 21:50 |
| vish | i have RV515 | 21:50 |
| Sarvatt | oh maybe i had those backwards, or the proposed kernel with the fix isnt out yet | 21:51 |
| vish | well, i'm on maverick :) | 21:51 |
| Sarvatt | mainline .35.x works? | 21:51 |
| Sarvatt | they ripped out new_pll completely in .36 afaik | 21:52 |
| vish | i was using mainline maverick kernel on a lucid system, but now i'm fully on maverick stock | 21:52 |
| vish | and still the same ol issue | 21:52 |
| Sarvatt | sounds like the fix only got backported to lucid, and will come down from the next .35 stable update, let me make sure | 21:53 |
| * vish files a bug again .. | 21:54 | |
| vish | i think the last one got duped to some other bug with the flickering.. | 21:54 |
| Sarvatt | http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=0d9958b18e10d7426d94cc3dd024920a40db3ee2 | 21:55 |
| Sarvatt | there it is upstream, dont see it in ubuntu/ubuntu-maverick.git | 21:55 |
| vish | Sarvatt: should i file the bug in kernel? or in -ati ? | 21:57 |
| Sarvatt | its in 2.6.35.5 | 21:57 |
| Sarvatt | vish: it shouldnt even be needed, we'll get it free whenever the kernel can get updated next | 21:58 |
| vish | Sarvatt: hehe, i tried waiting for this lucid last time :D , and maverick is here.. | 21:59 |
| * vish crosses fingers this time ;) | 21:59 | |
| Sarvatt | i know there's a 2.6.35-23 kernel in a kernel team ppa somewhere.. | 22:00 |
| Sarvatt | https://edge.launchpad.net/~leannogasawara/+archive/kernel-ppa | 22:01 |
| Sarvatt | pretty sure thats intended to go in maverick before the release, or on the same day | 22:02 |
| vish | cool! | 22:02 |
| Sarvatt | at least you dont have an rv530, the need the same quirk and dont have it yet :) | 22:03 |
| vish | :) | 22:03 |
| vish | i need to check the new_pll quirk too! iirc, the last time what it did was delay the problem much longer.. | 22:05 |
| * vish tries ppa and makes sure.. ;) | 22:05 | |
| Sarvatt | wow people weren't kidding about the conservative governor being a lot better than ondemand in recent kernels | 22:42 |
| achiang | Sarvatt: hm, where's a link to that train of thought? | 22:52 |
| Sarvatt | https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2010-September/012168.html | 22:53 |
| achiang | Sarvatt: interesting thanks | 22:55 |
| Sarvatt | it seems more willing to go into higher p-states for shorter periods of time and chrome feels more responsive because of it, of course it could be all in my head :) | 22:55 |
| Sarvatt | things have been unbearably slow all throughout maverick here | 22:56 |
| achiang | Sarvatt: but if you read through to the end of the thread, you see this: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-discuss/2010-September/012176.html | 22:56 |

| achiang | Sarvatt: well, mjg59 says "conservative takes longer to drop back to lower frequencies; So it's just about plausible; Depending on the workload..." | 23:00 |
| mrooney | hey all, I'm testing Maverick and getting frequent X restarts when using the proprietary nvidia drivers, is there value in debugging the issue and filing a bug? | 23:27 |
