Sarvatt__hrm I'm not sure when it should go in, looks like main is frozen before beta freeze is lifted?00:01
Sarvatt__RAOF: err, compiz memory leak happening with the nvidia blob too not just intel00:55
bjsnideryou got that right00:55
bjsniderhave to restart compiz every few hours00:55
RAOFOn alt-tab?00:55
Sarvatt__sarvatt   1911  0.5  0.7 133924 30920 ?        Sl   Apr06  37:33 compiz is with the blob here, I never alt+tab00:56
bjsniderneither do i00:57
Sarvatt__was surprised the blob was doing it too though, rules out some of the places I was looking.. gonna need a valgrind00:57
RAOFIs there a bug filed, and can you valgrind it?00:57
bjsniderfixing cairo didn't help00:57
RAOFFixing cairo was never *meant* to help compiz00:58
RAOFSo we've got two known OMG bugs on the go, then :)00:59
Sarvatt__I hit the min/max under compiz one a crapload and didn't realize it01:00
RAOFThe endless-waiting-in-_XReply one?01:01
* Sarvatt__ has a bad habit of min/maxing windows passing time :)01:01
Sarvatt__yeah01:01
RAOFOk.  Make a coffee, finish fixing mono, track down crazy _XReply bug.01:02
Sarvatt__bjsnider: do you use unity or a classic session?01:11
bjsniderunity01:13
bjsnideri thought that cairo was being run as a thread in compiz and with the cairo problem fixed the mem usage would be, but no joy01:13
RAOFbjsnider: No, the cairo problem was a fixed 5MiB cost for every process that linked to cairo (ie: every GUI app).01:14
bjsniderwell, i think in my case looking at the numbers, compiz has been gobbling up lots of ram since i started using natty 2 weeks ago. the other processes are ok01:15
Sarvatt__gonna try to look at it in the morning and wanted to be sure you were using unity, I sure as heck can't reproduce it with the blob on a classic session at least01:16
bjsniderwell, that narrows it down01:17
bjsnideri can see compiz ending up at >500 mb after a few hours01:17
bjsnideri don't have a swap file so i have to head that off before it goes too far01:18
ScottKSarvatt__: We won't unfreeze.  Go ahead and upload and the release team will figure out the best time to get it in.01:50
ScottKSarvatt__: I just uploaded it.02:04
ScottKIt's in queue for release team review.02:08
Sarvatt__ScottK: thanks a ton for that03:15
ScottKSarvatt__: It's in.03:40
Sarvatt_hrm got one http://paste.ubuntu.com/593017/09:07
Sarvatt_just close the lid with g-p-m set to blank the screen under unity on intel09:07
Sarvatt_comes back up in a weird state where you can interact with things partially but compiz is hung09:09
RAOFPartially?09:09
Sarvatt_yeah cursor is working, it changes when i hover over a resize area but cant change windows or anything09:10
RAOFRight.09:11
Sarvatt_i just attached gdb to compiz there while it was in that state09:11
RAOFI *think* that's another manifestation of the same bug.09:11
RAOFX is happily motoring along, compiz is sitting waiting for X to reply to its request.09:11
Sarvatt_hmm either http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xcb/libxcb/commit/?id=f0565e8f06aadf760a9065a97b8cf5ab9cbd18de helped or I just got lucky being able to reproduce it 3 times in a row there earlier :)09:43
tjaaltonthere was talk on the xcb list last month about a new release, but nothing came out of it, yet09:44
RAOFsarvatt: Hm.  If I read that commit correctly it should result in compiz dying with an IO error.09:46
RAOFSarvatt_: Yeah; that'll result in the X connection being shut down, which compiz is unlikely to be happy with.09:47
RAOFSarvatt: If you want a nice reproducer, revert bzr r1091 from unity.  That'll make maximize kill things again ;)09:53
Sarvatt_must just need to have it closed for a longer period of time to reproduce it then, had it closed >30 minutes each time before09:53
Sarvatt_oh maximize is fixed now?09:54
Sarvatt_woohoo09:54
RAOFYeah.  Well, worked around, at least.09:54
Sarvatt_ugh, intels gonna need another upload now too10:28

seb128tjaalton, thanks12:37
seb128tjaalton, I've dumped some similar bugs I found googling about the error in the comments12:38
seb128not sure how useful they are though ;-)12:38

loolHey17:06
loolsyndaemon is using 100% here, even after logging out and back in; did anybody see this so far?17:06
loollooks like https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-synaptics/+bug/75447017:07

loolcnd: ^17:12
cndlool, I haven't seen it17:13
cndI thought syndaemon was deprecated...17:13
cndI guess not since I'm running it :)17:15
Sarvattthe disable touchpad while typing option in the gnome capplet uses it17:15
cndlool, can you install the dbgsym package and gdb it to see where it's stuck?17:16
loolcnd: Actually I rebooted after a kernel upgrade and it doesn't happen for me anymore17:21
loolI got it three times after logging out and killing it, but now that I rebooted it's gone17:23
loolcnd: I'll gdb it if I reproduce though17:23
cndlool, ok, thanks!17:23

Sarvattat least it doesnt need autoreconf patches refreshed every time now17:40
bryceh_Sarvatt, did that -intel patch get taken care of by anyone already?  Should I roll up a ppa and solicit testers?18:21
Sarvattbryceh_: nope not yet, it'll need a bit of cleaning up for 2.14.0 because of has_kernel_flush18:23
bryceh_ok18:23
bryceh_Sarvatt, did everything get in yesterday that needed in?  mesa and whatnot?18:32
Sarvattbryceh_: yep!18:32
bryceh_ok great18:32
tjaaltoni bought an esprimo v5535 with sis mirage 3+ (672) on it, oh my..19:04
bryceh_tjaalton, get it for a good price?19:05
tjaaltonbryceh_: that would've meant "free" :)19:05
bryceh_heh19:05
bryceh_guess it'll keep you busy at least19:06
tjaaltonwell, it's a bit faster than the old thinkpad t23, so once flash runs on it I'll pass it on to the kids19:06
bryceh_I got an old via system hereabouts (one of those walmart PCs back when they were selling linux) 19:07
tjaaltondoes openchrome work with it?19:07
bryceh_unfortunately the cpu isn't well supported by the kernel so last I tested (which was a while ago) I couldn't even get it booting19:08
bryceh_figure I'd need to roll my own kernel with a custom config.  maybe someday19:08
tjaaltonhuh, that's.. bad19:09
tjaaltonvia cpu?19:09
bryceh_C3  iirc19:09
tjaaltonright, so the optimizations make it unbootable19:10
tjaaltonor the cpu family support in -generic19:10
bryceh_yeah at the time I looked at it, it just needed a config setting that we don't include by default19:10
bryceh_but even when it does work, the system is slow as snot19:11
tjaaltonhehe19:11
tjaaltonthis one seems to be noisy19:11
tjaaltonthe fan is on full blast even when idling19:11
bryceh_ew19:12
tjaaltoni suspect overheating issues19:12
tjaaltonin the future19:12
bryceh_hot gpu or does it just not support power modes?19:12
tjaaltonit was the same on win719:12
bryceh_ah19:12
tjaaltoni'll try with only the battery..19:12
bryceh_it's crazy how many gpu's I've burned through so far working on X19:13
bryceh_4-5 I think19:13
bryceh_(mainly ati)19:13
tjaaltonthough seems like the live-session doesn't support cpu throttling19:13
tjaaltonoh, just overheated them?19:13
bryceh_tjaalton, any theories on bug 747205?19:15
ubot4Launchpad bug 747205 in libdrm (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "[arrandale] Black screen on all outputs when external VGA is connected (affects: 7) (dups: 2) (heat: 50)" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/74720519:15
tjaaltonbryceh_: well, it's worse with compiz. but the register dumps are what ickle wants now19:17
tjaaltoni mean with metacity it's almost equally broken, just that you get back to normal by unplugging the monitor19:18
bryceh_right19:20
BlackZhello, are nvidia drivers expected to be broken on natty?19:57
Sarvattonly nvidia-173 and nvidia-9619:58
BlackZSarvatt: I can't get my video card working with nvidia-current19:59
Sarvattwhat GPU is it? can ya describe how its broken? like can you not install the package at all?20:00
BlackZSarvatt: nvidia geforce 7500 LE; I can't run the default Ubuntu desktop session (even unity doesn't run completely); I can successfully install the package and build the kernel module20:01
SarvattBlackZ: yeah that one needs the nvidia-173 driver and not nvidia-current unfortunately :(20:02
Sarvattoh wait, I'm sorry20:02
bjsniderno, it shuld work20:02
bjsnider6k and onwards20:02
bjsniderBlackZ, have you got any crazy ppa add-ons?20:03
BlackZbjsnider: no, fresh natty install20:03
SarvattBlackZ: can you pastebin a /var/log/Xorg.0.log (or .old) from a failed startup?20:04
BlackZSarvatt: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/593259/20:06
tjaaltonum, looks normal20:07
Sarvattyeah that looks fine, how about ~/.xsession-errors?20:07
BlackZSarvatt: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/593263/20:09
Sarvattsudo apt-get purge nvidia-173 for starters20:10
BlackZSarvatt: it's not installed20:11
BlackZSarvatt: however I have no problems at booting time; I have problems when starting a session in gdm (e.g. the default Ubuntu one)20:12
BlackZSarvatt: if I use the nouveau drivers all works good20:13
Sarvatti'm not sure whats going on with your sessions there but it looks like the nvidia driver is working fine, do you have any packages missing by any chance? sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop offer to install anything?20:15
BlackZSarvatt: no, it doesn't20:16
BlackZSarvatt: however I only have this problem on natty; on maverick the proprietary nvidia drivers works good20:21
bjsniderBlackZ, did you install all updates as of today?20:28
BlackZbjsnider: yes20:28
jcastroSarvatt: other than the occasional artifact in the dash the thinkpad X120E is running great with the open drivers, thanks for sorting out snagging the patch from upstream20:28
bjsniderSarvatt, how much ram would you say compiz should typically be using in natty?21:23
JanCI think RAM usage depends on what plugins you have enabled and probably also on display size, number of workspaces, & such?21:34
bjsniderJanC, right. in this case, it's just stock default unity23:08
