unity_supporterDoes anyone know whether the x-team is going to revert the intel i845 graphic driver back to intel or it is going to be fbdev like maverick (the mail archive is empty)?12:53

ubot4`Launchpad bug 715096 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "[i945gm] GPU lockup (ESR: 0x00000001 IPEHR: 0x02000011) (affects: 22) (dups: 15) (heat: 233)" [High,Incomplete]13:30
brobostigonis there anything more i can add to that bug to get things moving, i lost some serius work yesterday because of it.13:30
SarvattRAOF: I had to refresh 113_tls.diff in edgers to apply to master, hope I didn't break it in the process -- http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/mesa/packaging/revision/7914:03
SarvattRAOF, wgrant: radeon HD 5770 is fine with unity on edgers on i386, it must be amd64 specific14:53
Sarvattor it was fixed in the past few days of updates14:53
Sarvattmultiarchifying mesa will be a fun adventure16:48
jcristauSarvatt: pretty much like anything involving mesa, right?16:50
Sarvattyeah, need to add guinness to the build-deps16:51
SarvattRAOF: hmm, yeah, amd64 only is screwed with 113_tls.diff and git mesa17:08
Sarvatti386 sandybridge laptop is fine, amd64 one is trashed with unity. rebuilding without it to see if it fixes it just to be sure17:10
Sarvattyeesh, http://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?id=6c324777a685d28d0a81d23157e4863240552999 makes unity infinitely more usable on sandybridge17:32
Sarvattour 7.10 + that, no more 5 second waits to input text into the search popup17:33
Sarvattwish I caught that before feature freeze..17:33
jcristaucall it a bugfix17:34
vishSarvatt: make sure to mention that to didrocks or njpatel..  ;)17:36
Sarvattwould be nice if sandybridge could go 5 minutes without a [drm:i915_hangcheck_ring_idle] *ERROR* Hangcheck timer elapsed... blt ring idle [waiting on 69936, at 69936], missed IRQ? on 2.6.3817:39
Sarvattoh goodie, hangchecks look to be fixed in current linux master18:04
Sarvattwgrant: I backed 113_tls.diff out of mesa in xorg-edgers for now btw19:42
wgrantSarvatt: Thanks.21:59
LLStarkshey bryceh, is nvidia-173 broken? it wants to remove a ton of packages.22:13
brycehhaven't really looked at nvidia so far this week, but I see we have a large number of new bugs filed22:14
Sarvattyeah no nvidia-96 or 173 for natty22:14
LLStarkscan i just use the binary from the nvidia site?22:14
LLStarksnouveau 3d is busted on this box. can't load unity.22:15
brycehLLStarks, most likely won't help22:15
LLStarkscan't brute-force it?22:15
Sarvattit wont work, and it'll break things when you do get it installed to boot22:15
brycehLLStarks, with the IgnoreABI stuff?  Not sure that's suitable in this case22:16
LLStarkshow about edgers?22:18
brycehI suspect only downgrading xserver would be sufficient to make 173 work22:20
LLStarksthat's a bit much since i'd have to downgrade everything else. what's killing 173 atm?22:21
tjaaltonthe fact that it doesn't work with xserver 1.1022:21
RAOFSarvatt: Radeon HD5xxx works fine here with mesa master + the tls fixes + amd64?  I presume that the problem is in the particulars of 113_tls.diff; it probably needs to be updated for master.\22:22
LLStarksis this something that will be fixed or just temporary?22:22
tjaaltondepends on nvidia22:22
LLStarkswow. way to go nvidia. leave legacy support high and dry. are they finally deprecating the two?22:23
LLStarksi hope edgers nouveau will work with unity.22:23
LLStarks*crosses fingers*22:23
tjaaltonit's the same story every cycle, they are low prio22:23
LLStarksah. then that's okay.22:24
bjsniderLLStarks, typically those old drivers are updated within 24 hrs of a new ubuntu release but not before. they just don't have the manpower for it22:31
LLStarksheh\22:31
LLStarksgrrr. software rasterizer only? gallium y u no work?22:31
RAOFWith nouveau?22:32
tjaaltonyou need libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental for nouveau22:32
LLStarksyeah22:32
LLStarksit is22:32
LLStarksinstalled22:32
LLStarksi have an nv3422:32
LLStarksfx 520022:32
bjsnidernew hardware would be a better idea, if possible22:33
LLStarksthis is just a screw-around box22:33
RAOFTime for everyone's favourite LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose!22:33

tjaaltonso you are using vesa..22:48
tjaaltonnouveau blacklisted perhaps22:49
blahhow can that be? i had a native plymouth22:49

tjaaltonthat's grub2 doing the mode handover22:49

blahwork before that either though22:52
blahbrb22:52
tjaaltonyou're on the x team and didn't even check your logfile >;)22:53
LLStarksyeah, i had the nvidia installer blacklist.22:54
LLStarksusing nouveau now22:55
tjaaltonthe symlink is probably listed as a conffile, so a normal removal of the nvidia package doesn't delete the file22:56
LLStarksstill no unity22:56
jcristaui didn't think you could have symlinks as conffiles22:56
tjaaltonjcristau: dunno then, could be wrong22:57
jcristauor me.22:57
tjaaltonat least nvidia-current.conffiles doesn't list it22:58
LLStarksokay, lemme paste a new xorg log.22:58
tjaaltonwhy?22:58
LLStarkstjaalton, this was the nvidia.com binary22:58
bjsnidernvidia-current does not install that file, nore create any such link. it does blacklist nouveau by creating another conf file22:58
tjaaltonLLStarks: ok, you lose then22:58
LLStarksbecause, unity doesn't load and the desktop icons just flash22:58
bjsniderthat file was probably created by nvidia's installer, which he shouldn't be using22:59
tjaaltonnvidia-graphics-drivers.conf -> /etc/alternatives/nvidia_modconf22:59
tjaaltonthat's in /etc/modprobe.d22:59
tjaaltonhere22:59
tjaaltonLLStarks: what was the name of the file?22:59
LLStarksit didn't work before either.nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf 23:00
LLStarksack23:00
LLStarksnvidia-graphics-drivers.conf 23:00
LLStarksin modprobe.d23:00
tjaaltonnvidia-current does install that file23:01
bjsniderthat file is created by ubuntu, but the file mentioned by blah isn't23:01
tjaaltonso the nvidia.com binary creates the same file? hard to believe23:02
bjsniderthe file he mentioned was called nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf23:02
LLStarkswait. one sec.23:02
tjaaltonok missed that23:03
LLStarkswait, it was disable nouveau or what you said23:03
LLStarksnot the nvidia-graphics-drivers23:03
tjaaltonok then, so created by the nvidia installer23:03
LLStarkssorry for the brainfart23:03
bjsniderLLStarks, you used the nvidia-installer?23:04
SarvattLLStarks: I had to disable nouveau_vieux in edgers for the past few uploads because the build is broken23:04
blahnew xorg: http://pastebin.com/xk0K91j623:04
Sarvattshould be fixed in tomorrows upload23:04
blahbjsnider, i tried it. didn't get past blacklisting nouveau.23:04
blahlibGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/dri/tls/nouveau_dri.so23:05
blahlibGL: OpenDriver: trying /usr/lib/dri/nouveau_dri.so23:05
tjaaltonSarvatt: this uses nouveau_dri, not vieux23:05
blahi think everything but unity-3d works fine now23:06
tjaaltonblah: everything looks normal there23:06
LLStarksthere's also the well-documented graphical corruption23:07
LLStarksbut that's another day, another battle23:07
LLStarksthx23:16
