| RAOF | The wishlist bugs session sounds like a good one to me. | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| bryceh_ | RAOF, ok I'll craft a blueprint | 00:06 |
| bryceh_ | RAOF, meanwhile it seems one of monday's updates introduced a regression - see bug 757968 | 00:06 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 757968 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "[i965gm] GPU lockup (IPEHR: 0x14000000) - Black screen (affects: 2) (dups: 1) (heat: 14)" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/757968 | 00:06 |
| bryceh_ | RAOF, any ideas offhand? If the user can repro it, I'm going to have them individually downgrade mesa, xserver, -intel, and compiz to see which causes it. | 00:08 |
| RAOF | bryceh_: looking. | 00:08 |
| bryceh_ | if I were to bet, I'd guess mesa. | 00:08 |
| RAOF | Me too. | 00:09 |
| RAOF | If it's reproducible, and downgrading mesa fixes it, it shouldn't be too hard to identify the bad commit. | 00:10 |
| * bryceh_ nods | 00:13 | |
| bryceh_ | alright, sounds like a plan | 00:13 |
| bryceh_ | RAOF, btw I have a suspicion the libdrm patch ickle gave us is bad | 00:16 |
| RAOF | The even-more-relaxed-tiling fixes one? | 00:16 |
| bryceh_ | I've got 2-3 similar-ish bugs that I've got traced to regressing around the time that patch went in | 00:16 |
| RAOF | Hm. | 00:17 |
| bryceh_ | so far one test of downgrading it indicates that without that patch it freezes less often (maybe there's another freeze bug) | 00:17 |
| bryceh_ | the bugs are freezes and/or black screen issues | 00:18 |
| bryceh_ | so, if I can gather some more solid evidence I might revert that patch...100_intel_remember_named_bo.patch | 00:18 |
| bryceh_ | RAOF, I do note that debian took a couple other patches along with that one for 2.4.23-3, so perhaps one of them corrects issues that this patch brought? | 00:20 |
| RAOF | Fun fact: ‘break WriteToClient if who=0x14f92d0’ is *very importantly* not the same as ‘break WriteToClient if who==0x14f92d0’ :) | 00:20 |
| Sarvatt | that or there were more parts of 2.4.24 needed too | 00:21 |
| RAOF | bryceh_: Possibly? | 00:21 |
| RAOF | The other parts of 2.4.24 *claimed* to be about older kernels, and certainly looked that way. | 00:21 |
| bryceh_ | right | 00:21 |
| bryceh_ | if I can confirm that downgrading solves these issues, I can also see about having them test against the newer version if it's in a ppa somewhere | 00:22 |
| Sarvatt | these time zone differences between us all suck :) | 00:23 |
| bryceh_ | anyway, thinking we should hold off on 2.4.24 until these regressions are better understood | 00:23 |
| bryceh_ | Sarvatt, howso? | 00:23 |
| RAOF | I can upload 2.4.24 into X staging pretty easily. | 00:24 |
| bryceh_ | ok, that sounds like a good step | 00:25 |
| bryceh_ | I'll have folks test against that | 00:25 |
| * RAOF turns on the coffee machine and sets to uploading. | 00:32 | |
| RAOF | Uploaded to ubuntu-x-swat. | 00:51 |
| RAOF | AAaand built. | 01:14 |
| bryceh_ | thanks | 01:14 |

| njpatel | RAOF, I loved seeing that email in the morning....thank you for your work helping to track this down :) | 09:07 |
| RAOF | njpatel: It's a nice thing to end the week on :) | 09:08 |
| njpatel | Indeed : | 09:08 |

| tseliot | good morning to you ara :) | 09:34 |
| seb128 | bryceh_, some of the duplicates of the "intel_tex_image.c:726: intelSetTexBuffer2: Assertion `!texImage->Data' failed" have apport infos if that's useful | 10:45 |
| bradm | hi, is there anything I can do to help with bug 727620? I have to reboot my laptop 5 or 6 times, and then log into and kill X about the same before I get a usable session | 11:46 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 727620 in xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) (and 2 other projects) "[Radeon HD 5650 and 5470] Driver crash during recovery boot and in normal boot (Regression from 2.6.38-3 to -4) (affects: 9) (dups: 1) (heat: 58)" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/727620 | 11:46 |
| tjaalton | bradm: why don't you use the workaround mentioned in comment #26 | 12:21 |
| bradm | tjaalton: I did try that and had some issues, should give it another go I guess. it'd be good to have the bug fixed though | 12:24 |
| tjaalton | bradm: strongly in the upstream territory though, it needs kernel changes that won't get in 2.6.38 | 12:26 |
| tjaalton | from what I can tell anyway | 12:26 |
| bradm | tjaalton: right, I suspected that might be the case but its not really 100% clear in the bug thats whats happening | 12:26 |
| tjaalton | bradm: have you looked at the upstream bug? | 12:27 |
| bradm | tjaalton: I did | 12:28 |
| tjaalton | "The switcheroo code | 12:28 |
| tjaalton | needs more work to switch properly on some systems it seems." | 12:28 |
| bradm | yes, there's a lot of it seems, and supposition, was just wondering if I could do anything to help clear it up | 12:29 |
| bradm | its not clear to me whats happening now with the bug | 12:29 |
| tjaalton | i can confirm it if you like | 12:31 |
| tjaalton | the bug report, not the bug happening | 12:31 |
| bradm | well, it does say status incomplete, made me think something was missing | 12:32 |
| tjaalton | there | 12:32 |
| bradm | cool, thanks | 12:33 |
| bradm | its definately still happening for me at least | 12:34 |
| tjaalton | i don't doubt that | 12:34 |
| bradm | oddly I couldn't see anything in my bios to tell it to just use the radeon, but it is downrev a bit | 12:35 |
| bradm | but it needs windows to do a bios update :-/ | 12:35 |
| tjaalton | it's updated from windows? | 12:37 |
| bradm | all HP provide is a windows .exe | 12:37 |
| bradm | its possible there's a way of flashing from linux but its not obvious from the time I've spent looking | 12:37 |
| bradm | which, admittedly, hasn't been an enormous amount | 12:38 |
| tjaalton | it's usually just a self-extracting zipfile | 12:42 |
| tjaalton | use unzip to extract it | 12:42 |
| tjaalton | there are docs for creating a bootable cd that you can use for flashing your bios | 12:43 |
| bradm | nope, its not a zip file | 12:44 |
| bradm | ah, its a cab file | 12:45 |
| tjaalton | have a link to it? | 12:45 |
| bradm | ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp50501-51000/sp50942.exe | 12:46 |
| bradm | I've found some references that say the bios is encrypted by one of the dlls provided | 12:50 |
| tjaalton | right, that tool really needs windows.. | 12:55 |
| tjaalton | fail | 12:55 |
| bradm | very much so | 12:59 |
| bradm | my next laptop won't be a HP :) | 12:59 |
| BlackZ | Sarvatt: I filed a bug for the issue I described you the other day: bug #761718 | 13:57 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 761718 in nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) "Can't start Ubuntu default session properly (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/761718 | 13:57 |
| tseliot | BlackZ: what happens if you downgrade to the previous version of nvidia-current and reboot? | 14:07 |
| BlackZ | tseliot: this is what I was just trying ;) | 14:08 |
| tseliot | everything seems to be ok, BTW | 14:08 |
| BlackZ | yeah, looks quite weird | 14:08 |
| BlackZ | tseliot: downgrading to the previous version doesn't help at all | 14:44 |
| BlackZ | (and I was having the problem what that version as well) | 14:44 |
| tseliot | BlackZ: I suspected that. It means that something else busted your system. Maybe unity? | 14:44 |
| BlackZ | tseliot: I don't think so. Even the classic Ubuntu session doesn't start properly | 14:45 |
| BlackZ | tseliot: I can only start the one without any effect | 14:45 |
| tseliot | BlackZ: it's probably compiz then | 14:45 |
| BlackZ | tseliot: yeah, I think so | 14:46 |
| tseliot | BlackZ: see if you can find something interesting in your ~/.xsession-errors after you reproduce the problem | 14:46 |
| BlackZ | tseliot: unfortunately no, I can't | 14:47 |
| tseliot | BlackZ: can you reproduce the problem if you start the classic session without effects and then type: compiz --replace | 14:48 |
| tseliot | ? | 14:48 |
| BlackZ_ | tseliot: bingo! the problem is compiz.. | 14:57 |
| BlackZ_ | tseliot: it seems to crash at "Starting unity-window-decorator" | 14:57 |
| tseliot | BlackZ_: ok, please update the bug report and assign the bug to compiz | 14:58 |
| BlackZ_ | tseliot: will do! thanks :) | 14:58 |
| BlackZ_ | tseliot: btw I still can't figure out why it works with the nouveau drivers.. | 15:00 |
| bjsnider | why don't the other nvidia users have th is bug? | 15:18 |
| bjsnider | me, for example | 15:18 |
| BlackZ_ | bjsnider: no clue, this is really really weird | 15:51 |

| cnd | tjaalton, thanks! | 21:45 |
| tjaalton | cnd: sorry for just throwing the ball on your court yesterday ;) | 21:45 |
| cnd | tjaalton, np :) | 21:46 |
| cnd | it's a bit of a lull right now | 21:46 |
| cnd | and it very well could have been caused by some of my patches | 21:46 |
| tjaalton | heh, well your patches were, for the most part, already on our tree | 21:47 |
| tjaalton | in | 21:47 |
| tjaalton | aanyway, seems that there are less bugs flowing in that I feared | 21:48 |
| tjaalton | beta2 and all | 21:48 |
| tjaalton | some freezes yeah, but could just as well be compiz ones | 21:50 |
| tjaalton | and i really hope/believe that bug 507602 is finally fixed by libx11 1.4.2 | 21:53 |
| ubot4 | tjaalton: Bug 507602 on http://launchpad.net/bugs/507602 is private | 21:53 |
| tjaalton | duh | 21:53 |
| tjaalton | bug 507062 | 21:53 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 507062 in libx11 (Ubuntu Natty) (and 3 other projects) "synaptic assert failure: synaptic: ../../src/xcb_io.c:385: _XAllocID: Assertion `ret != inval_id' failed. (affects: 407) (dups: 267) (heat: 2474)" [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/507062 | 21:53 |
| tjaalton | 267 dupes.. | 21:54 |
| tjaalton | there's more, I'm sure | 21:54 |
| bryceh_ | wow | 21:54 |
| tjaalton | i ran the test code on the upstream bug for an hour or so, and couldn't reproduce it | 21:55 |
| tjaalton | though I should probably try it on beta1 too, to see if the code actually works | 21:55 |
| mvo | tjaalton: I think I saw a similar one for software-center recently, same pattern | 21:58 |
| tjaalton | mvo: yeah, many of those are from s-c | 21:59 |
| mvo | bug #761972 | 21:59 |
| ubot4 | mvo: Bug 761972 on http://launchpad.net/bugs/761972 is private | 21:59 |
| mvo | why my stuff? synaptic, software-center? *grumpf* ;) | 21:59 |
| tjaalton | heh | 22:00 |
| tjaalton | ah well | 22:00 |
| tjaalton | so it's a fresh one, probably didn't fix it then | 22:00 |
| tjaalton | duh | 22:00 |
| bryceh_ | mvo, you're not alone. Many times I've gone to report an emacs, xterm, firefox, etc. bug only to end up finding out it's actually a friggin X bug. | 22:01 |
| mvo | at least I'm not alone! | 22:01 |
| tjaalton | there are also some interesting commits on the libxcb tree, but it's a risky business pulling those. there really should be a reliable way to trigger this, but I'm afraid that's asking for too much.. | 22:02 |
| bryceh_ | yeah, we've been burned with xcb cherrypicks in the past. quite a fragile library | 22:13 |
| bryceh_ | reboot time. bbiab | 22:13 |
| tjaalton | best to try it via an sru | 22:13 |
| tjaalton | or oneiric.. | 22:13 |
| tjaalton | most likely | 22:13 |
