RAOFIt's always interesting to catch up with the linaro guys.00:17
=== yofel_ is now known as yofel
=== solarion is now known as Solarion
jcastrobryceh: you're sorted with your Xorg team session on Thursday, right after lunch so you guys will be nice and happy.02:39
Sarvattjcastro: thanks a ton for that02:45
RAOFWe should probably have a wayland-specific session, now that I think of it.02:47
jcastroRAOF: remember that there is an -o- in the titles, so I encourage you to do something that makes desktop-wayland-o-matic-something-clever 02:57
RAOFHeh.02:57
RAOFThe nomenclature is desktop-o, though right?02:57
soreau<diegoviola> RAOF: strange, ubuntu people are talking about shipping wayland as the default in 11.1004:26
soreau;)04:26
bjsnideryeah, that's going to happen04:58
bjsnider5000 developers and 100000 testers are working 24/7 on it for the next 6 months04:58
bjsnideri wonder how the issue of the blob's lack of gem/kms would be solved in 6 months05:01
brycehjcastro, thanks05:18
RAOFEh.  It wouldn't actually be *too* hard to transition to X-on-wayland, and there are some benefits to that.05:18
brycehRAOF, let's wait for some guidance from mark before we get too far down the pike05:19
RAOFOh, I'm not suggesting that we'll be *doing* it, but it's hardly 2500 developer-years and 50,000 tester-years worth of work :)05:20
* bryceh works on getting CivV installed under wine...05:21
* RAOF found that it Just Worked.05:22
RAOFAlso, care of nvidia's linux drivers being significantly better than their windows drivers, was much more stable.05:22
brycehheh05:24
brycehwell, I'm trying to get it running on -ati05:25
RAOFfglrx might run it.  And possibly r600g with mesa from git and float textures enabled and libtxc-dxtn and a 2.6.39 kernel might, too :)05:26
brycehfunny bug, when I move the Steam dialog window 100 pixels horizontally, it moves 200 pixels05:29
soreauRAOF: nvidia linux drivers more stable than their windows counterparts? How do you figure that?06:54
soreauI was wondering, if radeon gallium is default for natty, what does libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental provide?06:55
tjaaltonnouveau_dri.so07:00
RAOFsoreau: For my hardware - 7600go - I have a choice of nvidia-current on linux or 170.63 on Windows.07:22
tjaaltonhum, so the moonlight package doesn't actually do anything07:32
tjaaltondoesn't show up in about:plugins07:32
RAOFWhich plugin package?07:45
tjaaltonmoonlight-plugin-mozilla07:47
RAOFAh.  In archive.07:48
tjaaltonneeded to install the 4.0-preview to get anything07:48
tjaaltonthough silverlight4 content doesn't work with it either07:49
tjaaltonso, moo07:49
cndbryceh, found a nasty bug with masked valuators and input coordinate transformation16:50
cndI've got a patch that I'm testing out right now16:51
cndit should undergo plenty of testing before being SRU'd though16:51
cndhow do you think we should go about this?16:51
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC
Sarvattcnd: can you send it to me so I can add it to edgers at least?18:00
cndSarvatt, sure18:01
bjsniderricotz, i guess the network-manager-gnome package isn't really integrating with gnome-shell like it was supposed to19:08
ricotzbjsnider, if you arent using the nm-0.9 packages then this is normal19:11
bjsniderricotz, where do i get those packages?19:22
ricotzbjsnider, you can use ppa:ricotz/staging, but without a gnome-control-center with nm0.9 support you will loose some functionality19:23
ricotzthe import package is gir1.2-networkmanager-1.019:24
bjsniderwhat functionality?19:25
ricotzbjsnider, access to the configuration19:26
bjsnideri don't do anything crazy with it, just dhcp/wired19:27
ricotzbut using nm-connection-editor directly should work fine19:27
ricotzin this case you should be fine19:27
bjsniderthe only networking options i see in gnome control center now are for adding proxies19:28
bjsniderricotz, how long before the nm-0.9 package is added to the gnome 3 ppa?19:29
ricotzbjsnider, yes, to have more option g-c-c needs to be compiled with nm09 support which is disabled in the ppa19:30
ricotznot sure might, you probably want to use oneiric which should include it soon19:30
bjsniderricotz, the plan is to have gnome 3 side by side with unity in oneiric?19:31
ricotzyes19:31
bjsnideri don't understand how the indicators get worked around, since gnome 3 doesn't use them19:38
