[14:40] <fongweekim> Hi I need help with Xen on Ubuntu 10.10 desktop
[14:40] <fongweekim> I tried to read the Xen documentation page
[14:40] <fongweekim> I can't get make world to run
[14:41] <fongweekim> any ideas
[22:09] <RAOF> Uuuh, is anyone else finding random garbage in files?
[22:10] <kklimonda> not reall
[22:10] <RAOF> I've just worked out why smuxi wasn't working; the libindicate .dll.config file was the right size, but contained 96 bytes of garbage from some other file.
[22:11] <kklimonda> huh
[22:11] <kklimonda> what filesystem do you use?
[22:11] <RAOF> ext4
[22:11] <RAOF> What's that deb md5 sum tool?
[22:12] <RAOF> Heh.  debsums
[23:16] <TheMuso> RAOF: Is your memory ok
[23:17] <TheMuso> i.e does a memory test pass?
[23:17] <RAOF> TheMuso: I guess that's the next thing to check.
[23:18] <RAOF> debsums didn't pick up any other corruption, at least.
[23:30] <RAOF> ls
[23:30] <RAOF> GAH
[23:31] <RAOF> I hate you milkman dan.
[23:32] <kklimonda> ah, I really shouldn't update X after all :/
[23:32] <RAOF> Oh, really?
[23:32] <RAOF> What's wrong?
[23:33] <kklimonda> it's just that nouveau is so slow - I've never noticed till now
[23:33] <kklimonda> I've just tried to launch atom zombie smasher to play for few minutes and it's unusable ;)
[23:33] <RAOF> Hm, really?  Slow on 3D, I presume.
[23:33] <kklimonda> yeah
[23:34] <RAOF> You've actually got the 3D drivers installed, I guess?
[23:34] <kklimonda> I do
[23:34]  * RAOF doesn't find it slow, but then he doesn't use it to play games, either.
[23:35] <kklimonda> I don't really think it: http://blendogames.com/atomzombiesmasher/images/screenshot2.jpg qualifies as a 3D intensive game ;)
[23:35] <kklimonda> also, nouveau seems to be running a little bit hotter than nvidia
[23:36] <kklimonda> but that doesn't really matter as I'm still running a normal 2D gnome session
[23:36] <RAOF> That would because it may not be actually doing power management ;)
[23:36] <kklimonda> with metacity, and no composite manager - so temperature is still below 60
[23:36] <kklimonda> yeah, that's quite possible - I was under the impression that it had some basic power managment
[23:37] <RAOF> I've never quite got around to checking whether that's made it into 2.6.38
[23:37] <RAOF> Certainly upstream has PM support.
[23:38] <kklimonda> there is /sys/class/drm/card0/device and performance_level_* but performance_level always indicates that it's running on the 2nd level
[23:38] <kklimonda> I never really see it scale either down or up
[23:53] <broder> is the best way to get 12b0f7df cherry-picked into the xserver a bug + debdiff? or is there another process that's easier for the developers?
[23:56] <RAOF> broder: I see that's in 1.10RC2, which means you'll get it once we've done that update.  Which will be early this week (I'm doing it now).
[23:56] <broder> ah, ok. sweet :)
[23:57] <RAOF> Bah.  memtest86 doesn't seem to work!
