AElfwine | hello | 03:17 |
---|---|---|
AElfwine | does anyone know if mesa 7.11 will be packaged on ppa x-updates for natty? | 03:17 |
RAOF | I don't plan to, and I don't know of anyone who does. | 03:20 |
RAOF | If someone wanted to do the work, I guess. | 03:21 |
AElfwine | ok thanks | 03:22 |
RAOF | Oh, poulsbo. Must you be so hateful? | 06:14 |
tjaalton | leave it alone?-) | 06:18 |
RAOF | Bug #815000 prevents me from properly leaving it alone. | 06:29 |
ubot4 | Launchpad bug 815000 in xorg (Ubuntu) "Oneiric X/LightDM doesn't start on an Intel GMA500 (affects: 1) (heat: 410)" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/815000 | 06:29 |
tjaalton | ah :) | 06:34 |
tjaalton | so not even fbdev works with it | 06:35 |
RAOF | Which is odd, 'cause the staging psb driver is a kms driver. | 06:40 |
tjaalton | right | 06:58 |
bjsnider | ricotz, all of a sudden i don't have to type a password to install updates. is this some change that came in through the gnome 3 ppa? | 13:04 |
diverse_izzue | so this sandybridge new acceleration SNA that phoronix is talking about... is it active in oneiric? or if not, can i activate it? | 17:59 |
Duke` | it is active in xorg-edgers | 17:59 |
* Duke` is having some troubles with it ;_; | 18:00 | |
diverse_izzue | so plan for oneiric is to leave it disabled? | 18:00 |
diverse_izzue | is it a compile-time option? | 18:00 |
Sarvatt | diverse_izzue: yep disabled in oneiric (and 12.04 most likely because of that), it is a compile time option | 18:01 |
diverse_izzue | wouldn't the release before 12.04 be the time to go wild for the last time? :-) | 18:03 |
Sarvatt | thats what I was saying, but intel strongly recommended not doing it | 18:05 |
diverse_izzue | oh... well, they would probably know | 18:06 |
Sarvatt | got the impression they have some other plans for it, like scrapping it | 18:06 |
diverse_izzue | time will show | 18:06 |
diverse_izzue | how about providing it as an *-experimental package, as fedora has been doing for unstable graphics drivers? | 18:08 |
Sarvatt | I think RAOF already did that, not sure what his plans are with it though. he's going to be on in a few hours | 18:09 |
Sarvatt | (like 4-5 hours I think) | 18:09 |

RAOF | Sarvatt: Yeah. I was taklking with ickle and keithp, and they were both strongly on the side of UXA in LTS. They don't plan to have a flag-day where SNA becomes the default; ideas might migrate through to UXA, though. | 22:40 |
RAOF | Sarvatt: If you wanted to build both SNA and UXA in edgers I have done essentially all the work needed to make that happen. | 22:40 |
Sarvatt | RAOF: oh? hate to fork the packaging but that sounds worthwhile while there are unity specific problems that wont get fixed :P | 22:42 |
RAOF | Let me just check that it actually does what I remember, then I'll push it somewhere public for you. | 22:44 |
RAOF | It ends up building two DDXs - intel and intelsna | 22:44 |
Sarvatt | same source package though? sounds good to me | 22:45 |
Sarvatt | RAOF: no rush if you dont have it handy, i'm super swamped doing lucid backport stuff | 22:46 |
RAOF | Yeah, same source package. | 22:46 |
bjsnider | they want their DDX to use UXA instead of SNA in an LTS? | 23:25 |
RAOF | bjsnider: Yes. They plan to avoid a messy UXA→SNA transition like the EXA→UXA transition, so there's no benefit in shipping a separate SNA driver. | 23:29 |
bjsnider | i was just innocently making fun of your excessive use of acronyms | 23:30 |
bjsnider | BTW, you should probably add that SNA info to the FAQ for the LTS | 23:32 |
