[00:07] <tjaalton> Sarvatt: yes, i'm willing to spend time for the ppa
[00:12] <tjaalton> we can work it out
[00:12] <tjaalton> :)
[00:13] <tjaalton> +some
[01:01] <Sarvatt> bryce2: there are some commits that increase power usage a lot at the expense of making things perform better on intel too, damned if you damned if you dont if we reverted it though
[01:01] <Sarvatt> like commit ccab5c82759e2ace74b2e84f82d1e0eedd932571

[01:01] <Sarvatt> drm/i915: tune Sandy Bridge DRPS constants
[01:02] <Sarvatt> that one is killer and even triggers machine check exceptions in dmesg constantly
[01:02] <Sarvatt> 20% performance win on sandybridge though..
[01:33] <bryce2> wonder if it has to be a power vs. performance trade, or if things could be done more cleverly?
[01:39] <bjsnider> why does ubuntu use more power than osx when both use composited desktops?
[22:30] <RAOF> bryceh: Yo yo!
[22:30] <bryceh> heya RAOF!
[22:31] <bryceh> just arrived, I'm in rm 640
[22:31] <RAOF> Aha! Practically next door!
[22:31] <RAOF> I'm in 643.
[22:31] <bryceh> wow
[22:31] <bryceh> that'll be convenient
[22:32] <RAOF> Yeah.
[22:33] <bjsnider> you guys are 40 feet apart and you're talking on irc
[22:33] <RAOF> Yeah, well.  We've only just *discovered* we're 10 metres apart.
[22:36] <RAOF> Also, my laptop needs to recover electrons after the flight :)
[22:37] <bryceh> was your flight as uneventful as mine, raof?
[22:38] <RAOF> Probably.  Mine was pretty uneventful.
[22:38] <RAOF> But started strangely early for a 9am flight.
[22:38] <RAOF> Or, rather, I started my day strangely early.
[22:43] <Sarvatt> were there actually other people on the flight at 9 am on 9/11?
[22:45] <bryceh> mine was packed to the gills
[23:08] <RAOF> Mmm.  This wireless is not the most stable network known to man.
[23:18] <bryceh> mine seems to be ok, although I haven't been on it very much yet; feel free to pop down if you'd like... perhaps I'm closer to the ap
[23:20] <RAOF> Maybe I shall, once I'm sure that an extra disconnect won't break context for other conversations. :)
[23:20] <RAOF> And, actually, it's pretty close to dinner/lunch time.
[23:23] <bryceh> yep
[23:47] <RAOF> bryceh: Dinner time?
[23:48] <bryceh> RAOF, sounds good
[23:48] <RAOF> I'll wander down to you.
[23:48] <bryceh> ok
