[08:25] <smspillaz> bryceh: ping
[08:25] <smspillaz> bryceh: do you know if some broken x server just got pushed ?
[08:26] <bryceh> smspillaz, xserver hasn't been upgraded, but I did push some new driver bits
[08:26] <smspillaz> bryceh: hrm, let me give you a backtrace of what's going on
[08:26] <bryceh> (all booted and worked fine on the system I was using for testing)
[08:26] <bryceh> brb
[08:27] <smspillaz> sure
[08:29] <smspillaz> bryceh: I'll try repairing things first
[08:30] <bryceh> smspillaz, ok
[08:30] <smspillaz> (sorry to ping you on the weekend :/)
[08:35] <smspillaz> uh-huh
[08:35] <smspillaz> and now it's gone
[08:35] <smspillaz> after a few reboots
[08:35] <smspillaz> bryceh: it was something about input devices though in the bt
[08:36] <smspillaz> bryceh: http://paste.ubuntu.com/559815/fwiw
[08:36] <smspillaz> bryceh: http://paste.ubuntu.com/559815/ fwiw
[08:38] <smspillaz> aaand now its back
[08:40] <bryceh> mm, yeah crash in -evdev
[08:40] <smspillaz> seems to happen on normal startup but if I drop to recovery mode, resume normal boot and then start X manually there seems to be no crash
[08:40] <bryceh> that's one of the aforementioned drivers I updated
[08:40] <smspillaz> I figured :)
[08:40] <smspillaz> let me know how I can help further
[08:40] <bryceh> smspillaz, can you try downgrading to the previous xserver-xorg-video-evdev and see if it goes away?
[08:40] <bryceh> er
[08:40] <smspillaz> bryceh: sure. I'm not brilliant with by apt-foo, so how would I do that ?
[08:40] <bryceh> xserver-xorg-input-evdev
[08:41] <smspillaz> bryceh: sure. what's the command to downgrade things with apt ?
[08:41] <bryceh> smspillaz, easiest way is to look in your /var/cache/apt/archives/ and see if you still have the previous .deb
[08:41] <bryceh> if so, then just dpkg -i <file.deb>
[08:42] <bryceh> or, apt-get install <pkg>=<version>
[08:42] <smspillaz> sure
[08:43] <smspillaz> 3a2.6.0-1ubuntu1?
[08:45] <smspillaz> wooo kernel panic!
[08:45] <smspillaz> ubuntu releases show just the accuracy of murphy's law it seems
[08:46] <smspillaz> bryceh: hrm, even after installing that it seems I still have the crash
[08:53] <smspillaz> bryceh: my only guess is that there might have been an ABI break which is not compatible with the nvidia driver - is there any way to revert to nouveau for now ?
[08:54] <smspillaz> will sudo apt-get install xorg-xserver-video-nouveau do it ?
[08:54] <bryceh> ooohhhhh
[08:55] <smspillaz> oh?
[08:55] <bryceh> yeah new 2.6.38 kernel will totally break -nvidia I'm sure
[08:55]  * smspillaz yells at the drinking team
[08:55] <bryceh> if you're using -nvidia, now's the time to uninstall it and begin your nouveau experience
[08:55] <smspillaz> bryceh: but that doesn't really explain why the crash is in evdev
[08:55] <smspillaz> bryceh: heh, although I kinda need direct rendering
[08:56] <smspillaz> I actually use nouveau on my arch box though, it is very nice
[08:56] <bryceh> if you need -nvidia you'll have to stick with a .37 kernel for the interim
[08:57] <smspillaz> bryceh: is enabling nouveau's dri a pain right now ?
[08:57] <smspillaz> reverting the kernel is going to open a can of worms for sure
[08:57] <bryceh> there's an optional package to install the nouveau 3d bits
[08:57] <smspillaz> bryceh: also, as an aside, I don't see NVRM complaining and I see the nvidia logo on startup so I assume something is working
[08:58] <smspillaz> (nvidia logo because I had it installed from nvidia.com before, but then I purged it and installed it from the repos)
[08:58] <smspillaz> (so I still have Option "NoLogo" "0" in my xorg.conf :)
[08:59] <bryceh> well, if you downgraded -evdev (and restarted X) and it still behaves the same, then nvidia/kernel incompatibility is my next guess
[08:59] <smspillaz> bryceh: yeah
[08:59] <smspillaz> bryceh: what's the name of this package to enable nouveau dri ?
[08:59] <bryceh> nvidia is pretty invasive so even though -evdev is an input driver it wouldn't surprise me
[08:59] <bryceh> heh, was afraid you were going to ask that
[08:59] <smspillaz> dude, I know how these things work :)
[09:00] <smspillaz> just can't be bothered googling it (jcbbgi [tm])
[09:03] <bryceh> libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental
[09:05] <bryceh> libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental-dbg
[09:05] <smspillaz> cheers
[09:14] <smspillaz> ok, I'm still getting this X crash
[09:14] <smspillaz> time to hose this system and try again methinks
[09:16] <smspillaz> the nice thing is havign /home on a separate partition :)
[09:39] <smspillaz> yay it works, sort of
[09:39] <smspillaz> compiz works, unity doesn;t
[09:39] <smspillaz> but that doesn't really matter
[18:01] <Guest36276> hello
[18:02] <Guest36276> could someone have a tip, I changed my  root partition size with live cd , not boot error, grub works, but when booting linux, it cannot boot, any good solutions_
[18:07] <xapantu> Guest36276, maybe you should go to #ubuntu, I think you would get more answers.
[18:08] <Guest36276> ok
[18:08] <Guest36276> i found solution, i think. I also removed swap partition, and that was the problem
[20:50] <xclaesse> damned, I have lots of drawing artifacts in xchat-gnome since latest updates in natty
[20:51] <chrisccoulson> xclaesse, intel?
[20:51] <xclaesse> yes
[20:51] <chrisccoulson> bug 707236
[20:51] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 707236 in xserver-xorg-video-intel "corruption in xchat-gnome window" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/707236
[20:51] <chrisccoulson> i get it too ;)
[20:51] <xclaesse> chrisccoulson, cool thx
[20:52] <xclaesse> have to switch between desktops to get the view redrawn correctly :p
[20:52] <chrisccoulson> yeah, it's a bit of a pain
[20:52] <chrisccoulson> i might try downgrading the driver
