[09:29] <Amaranth> Sarvatt: Can you build the xorg-edgers intel package with --enable-sna?
[10:01] <Sarvatt> Amaranth: ppa:sarvatt/intel-sna, its in the xorg-edgers description
[10:02] <Sarvatt> its an overlay to xorg-edgers, need both activated
[10:02] <Sarvatt> RAOF: do you have your libdrm checkout handy that you could push?
[10:22] <Amaranth> Sarvatt: yay
[10:24] <Sarvatt> Amaranth: actually i'm going to enable it directly in edgers with an upload right now
[10:24] <Sarvatt> they made the xserver patches optional pretty much, things work great on sandybridge at least
[10:38] <alkisg> Hi, when my kids want to play on my PC, I'm switching to another vt, and run: "startx -- :1". This works great, except that sometimes X hangs. Is there any better way to do it?
[10:39] <alkisg> In other words, what's the best way to have 2 X servers (or screens?) on the same laptop with no external monitors?
[10:53] <alkisg> Um never mind, I can't VNC on my xserver on vt7 while my kids are playing on vt8, I get a blank screen.
[13:06] <bjsnider> Sarvatt, the 275 blob is still going to be a big problem because of the supported pciid script being broken right?
[13:25] <Sarvatt> bjsnider: nah nvidia said they dont support anything not in the readme and its just stuff that isn't or was never released
[13:51] <bjsnider> Sarvatt, so it's ok to put it in x-updates?
[13:58] <ScottK> Sarvatt: Still no crashes since I installed the package from your PPA.
[14:37] <RAOF> Sarvatt: GAH!  Sorry, libdrm pushed.
[15:03] <stefanlsd> heys, does anyone have an experience with xorg and xdmx. It seems when trying to utilise the glx part of it, it segfaults.
[15:35] <jcristau> yeah glxproxy is all b0rked
[15:38] <stefanlsd> jcristau: bleh. that sucks. Do you know if there is an alternative? Was looking at Stanfords Chromium, but last released 2006. So not sure its even worth trying
[15:38] <jcristau> no idea
[15:39] <stefanlsd> jcristau: kk. thanks. will try find / open a bug
[15:59] <Sarvatt> wow, bug about SNA being enabled on xorg-edgers already
[15:59] <Sarvatt> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/802558
[16:00] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 802558 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "[xorg-edgers] huge performance regression after upgrade (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,New]
[16:05] <tjaalton> haha
[16:17] <bjsnider> i thought sna would vastly increase performance, not regress it
[16:18] <tjaalton> not across the board
[16:51] <tjaalton> RAOF: isn't bug 389519 fixed in oneiric, now that the pointer barrier and cursor confinement patch got added?
[16:51] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 389519 in xorg-server (openSUSE) (and 2 other projects) "[Needs 1.11]Cursor can move off-screen when dual-monitors do not form rectangular area (affects: 47) (dups: 2) (heat: 149)" [Unknown,Unknown] https://launchpad.net/bugs/389519
[16:52] <RAOF> tjaalton: I *think* that we're still missing a commit there, but I'm not sure.
[16:52] <RAOF> tjaalton: And my second monitor isn't at the sprint, obviously :)
[16:52] <tjaalton> hmm but we have projectors :)
[16:54] <RAOF> Excellent point.  And the VGA connector is *right* next to me.
[16:54] <tjaalton> I could try it out as well, though my laptop has 10x7 screen and the projectors are likely the same
[16:55] <RAOF> Yeah, but you could set the projector to 800x600
[16:55] <tjaalton> ha
[16:56] <RAOF> BAH.  Stupid unity.
[16:56] <RAOF> Yeah.  crtc confine doesn't.
[16:57] <tjaalton> confirmed
[16:58] <tjaalton> I'll update the bug
[17:05] <tjaalton> ha
[17:07] <tjaalton> no, fixesproto 5.0 is in oneiric, of course
[17:10] <tjaalton> hmm, the patch seems incomplete
[17:10] <tjaalton> at least compared to what was sent on the list
[17:11] <RAOF> Yeah.
[17:12] <RAOF> It's missing the bit which actually calls ConfineCursorHarder, and the bit which adds a ConfineCursorHarder that confines to the crtc.
[17:16] <tjaalton> where on earth did I pull that patch from.. certainly not from the f15 branch
[17:17] <RAOF> It's missing 810fbfa44626bff9f443ab17c0ad27ff7ae121d7 at least.
[17:17] <tjaalton> i've pulled the real version
[17:17] <RAOF> Ah, souper.
[17:20] <tjaalton> applies, lets see if it builds ..
[17:31] <tjaalton> 3
[17:31] <tjaalton> ?
[17:31] <tjaalton> building..
[17:48] <tjaalton> meh, pbuilder fail, maybe a local build is better
[18:00] <tjaalton> nope, still fails, but can't spot the error
[18:01] <tjaalton> other than just "dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build gave error exit status 2"
[18:13] <RAOF> Is it in git?
[18:18] <tjaalton> RAOF: I'll push it
[18:20] <tjaalton> RAOF: there
[18:20] <RAOF> Ta.
[18:20] <RAOF> I'll start a build and then go off and do something else :)
[18:20] <tjaalton> good plan
[20:58] <bryceh> RAOF, tjaalton, Sarvatt, how's sprint going so far?
[21:43] <tjaalton> bryceh: good; I'm enjoying local music and beer at the oldest pub on the island atm ;) (45min walk to get here)
[21:46] <bryceh> tjaalton, wish I was there!  how was the day?
[21:56] <tjaalton> bryceh: slow starting, but got some bugwork done when there was nothing more pressing going on. also the crtc cofinement is not working since the patch was incomplete, and now it fails to build for some strange reson (dpkg-buildpackage failure)
[21:56] <tjaalton> reason
[21:57] <tjaalton> hmm, ssh roaming can't be that expensive, right?-)
[21:57] <bryceh> heh
[23:37] <gl-> hello; I'm currently experiencing bad 3d performance with natty and intel embedded graphics
[23:37] <gl-> Especially by comparing to the windows performance
[23:37] <gl-> and taking in consideration that direct rendering is enabled
[23:38] <gl-> I've search quite a lot on the net; there are a certain number of reports of bad performance, but there's nothing consistent in the problems
[23:41] <gl-> I don't know if you guys have any idea of a known problem with intel graphics.
