brycehSarvatt, anyway I'll assume it's not sru worthy, but poke me if it is00:15
LLStarksshocker of the night. 02:13
LLStarksxrender broken on fresh maverick02:14
LLStarksfor intel02:14
brycehoho02:18
brycehso not a regression eh?02:18
LLStarksi can check lucid02:18
LLStarksbut i was not expecting maverick to be lacking xrender.02:19
brycehhave you ruled out simple test breakage?02:19
LLStarksdoubtfull. jrendermark and xrender-reliant games were also affected02:20
LLStarksbtw, screen corruption test on .37 is coming up in a little bit. i'd also like to remark that the classic panel dropdown is a reliable trigger of the symptoms. anything fast moving seems to do so.02:21
RAOFLacking xrender, or broken rendering?02:21
LLStarkserr:xrender:get_xrender_format_from_color_shifts No XRender format found!02:22
LLStarksi don't know what specific files or libraries make up xrender02:23
LLStarksso i can't account for its presence or lack thereof02:24
RAOFSounds like a server - or client - problem; xrender isn't driver dependent (although acceleration is)02:24
brycehthis is sounding like something which maybe best brought up on xorg-devel@02:26
brycehI was thinking we could forward the bug report up to upstream bugzilla02:26
brycehhowever I'll bet it needs wider eyes than that02:27
brycehLLStarks, would you be willing to post it to xorg-devel@ for feedback?02:27
LLStarksthe list? sure.02:27
RAOFAlthough checking whether it works on Natty first would be a good idea.02:27
brycehRAOF, he did that already02:28
bryceh(I think he was checking maverick because I asked if it was a regression)02:28
LLStarkslucid test is coming up.02:28
RAOFAh, fair enough.02:28
LLStarksthough i'm fairly certain that i remember my games suddenly breaking during the maverick cycle02:29
brycehRAOF, btw check it - our graph is looking quite good here at the end of the week - http://www.bryceharrington.org/X/Reports/ubuntu-x-swat/totals-natty-workqueue.svg02:29
LLStarkswas maverick that bad? jeez.02:30
LLStarks*that troublesome02:30
bryceh(it'll notch down even lower once it regens, I just finished rapping down another 8-10 bugs)02:31
RAOFSweet!02:31
LLStarksbrb02:32
brycehLLStarks, well, in maverick's defense some of the -intel freezes were out of control and apport wasn't working well enough to properly diagnose them02:32
brycehso I think there are lots of dupes in the maverick stats which we've been better at culling out this release02:33
RAOFAlso, there have been two people X'ing this cycle.  And one of them has been bryceh, master of Launchpad.02:33
brycehhowever I think as a result we've been able to hone in on the bugs that *do* exist and hopefully can do good at excising them02:34
brycehRAOF, agreed, two heads definitely better than one02:34
brycehfwiw, the lucid graph looks about the same as the maverick one.  Manpower makes a big difference.02:34
brycehRAOF, btw I had them shut off the retracer.02:36
brycehit was just posting back corrupted backtraces02:37
brycehat least this way there'll be the core file still attached so we can manually extract our own backtraces02:37
brycehoh btw, remember the out-of-memory bug I was mentioning the other day02:39
brycehI *think* it may be particular to USB livecd boots02:39
brycehe.g. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/72023502:39
ubot4Launchpad bug 720235 in xorg-server (Ubuntu) "Xorg crashed with SIGSEGV in BlockHandler() (LiveCD environment, image from 20110216) (affects: 1) (dups: 1) (heat: 18)" [Medium,New]02:39
RAOFInteresting.  I wonder what's deffirent.02:40
brycehsomething peculiar about the usb persistent image installation results in running out of memory02:40
brycehyeah dunno, but suggests maybe we could reproduce it by creating usb installs in various ways02:40
brycehhowever I'm EOW'd and hoping next week to focus on wayland a bit02:41
RAOFYeah.02:43
RAOFI'll have xserver RC2 + multitouch to do for the start of next week.02:43
RAOFOh, how did mesa/ati/xserver go?  I haven't checked if they're uploaded yet.02:44
brycehyep, uploaded them several hours ago02:44
brycehI booted unity and metacity with them and seemed no worse than before02:44
brycehI still get that weird initial paint wrongness with compiz, but had that before02:45
RAOFAnd alt-tab works now? :)02:45
brycehmesa might be through the buildd's02:45
brycehoh heck, forgot to test that02:45
RAOFWell, it works *here*02:45
RAOFSo I'm confident it's going to work elsewhere.02:45
RAOFNow, let's see if Civ V works on it!02:46
brycehwhat was the ultimate fix?  did my patch do it?02:47
brycehironically as annoying as I found that, I never tested my own patch.  whoops02:47
RAOFOh, the fix was ‘that bug doesn't apply to the gallium driver’02:48
brycehalright on the o-o-m bug I left a note for the reporter about what I'd like to see tested; he sounded willing maybe he can do the leg work on it02:48
brycehoh that's right, heh02:48
