| tseliot | cnd: hi, any ideas on bug #804109 ? | 14:35 |
|---|---|---|
| tseliot | bug #804109 | 14:43 |
| tseliot | no bot, I guess | 14:43 |
| bryceh2 | Sarvatt: remember when you had those keyboard-doesn't-work-with-lightdm problems? What was the resolution to that? udev update? | 14:53 |
| bryceh2 | cnd is seeing keyboard failures (keypress events not coming through) when using lightdm | 14:54 |
| Sarvatt | i actually dont remember exactly what it was, but i did have to downgrade udev to natty's for a month or so to work around it | 14:56 |
| Sarvatt | dont think thats an option anymore with the /run transition though | 14:57 |
| ricotz | tseliot, hello, just curious, what is the purpose of nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates? | 15:00 |
| Sarvatt | ricotz: pulls new nvidia drivers from ppa:ubuntu-x-swat/x-updates i believe | 15:00 |
| ricotz | as i would suspect for ("unstable") upcoming updates? | 15:00 |
| tseliot | ricotz: it's the package we're going to keep updated during the stable release cycle | 15:00 |
| bryceh2 | Sarvatt: yeah found in google where we discussed all this with cnd before | 15:01 |
| ricotz | tseliot, ok | 15:01 |
| bryceh2 | about 5 weeks ok | 15:01 |
| bryceh2 | s/ok/ago/ | 15:01 |
| Sarvatt | bryceh2: oh digging through irclogs then, maybe it'll refresh my memory | 15:01 |
| ricotz | tseliot, so it might be apropriate to follow the beta cycle already there | 15:01 |
| ricotz | as in updating it to 285.03 | 15:01 |
| Sarvatt | why? | 15:01 |
| ricotz | it seems to fix issues with gnome-shell for instance | 15:02 |
| tseliot | ricotz: is it a stable driver? | 15:02 |
| ricotz | tseliot, no, a beta one | 15:02 |
| tseliot | ricotz: then it's not a candidate for -updates. Only stable drivers will go there | 15:03 |
| Sarvatt | they'll probably drop a 285.1x.yy soon and mark it stable not long after | 15:03 |
| tseliot | and that would be a good candidate | 15:03 |
| ricotz | yeah that is what i am hoping | 15:03 |
| ricotz | so updating it already shouldnt do no harm, it seems just a bit weird to ship the same driver twice | 15:04 |

| tjaalton | cnd: what if you restart lightdm, does input work then? | 15:11 |
| bryceh2 | tjaalton: no, but if he runs startx with no lightdm it will work | 15:11 |
| tjaalton | bryceh2: ah, ok | 15:12 |
| Sarvatt | bryceh2: those ones were udev choking on the /run transition and not adding the input devices and was already fixed, cnd has had the problem since oneiric opened so pretty sure its something different | 15:13 |
| tjaalton | maybe it's starting the wrong X with no input drivers? :) (if there's a local build around) | 15:16 |
| tjaalton | though gdm worked.. | 15:16 |
| tjaalton | the logfile from a failing one would show | 15:17 |
| bryceh2 | tjaalton: happen to know a dpkg invocation that would return a list of installed packages not from main/universe? | 15:17 |
| tjaalton | bryceh2: hmm no, but I thought he might have a hand-built xserver in /usr/local or so | 15:19 |
| bryceh2 | no, /usr/bin/X is showing in ps output | 15:20 |
| tjaalton | ok | 15:20 |
| bryceh2 | he's currently stepping through xserver code in gdm | 15:32 |
| bryceh2 | er. gdb | 15:32 |
| diverse_izzue | bryceh2, can you have a quick look: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/815978. Should I submit the bug with kernel.org? | 15:40 |
| bryceh2 | looking | 15:41 |
| bryceh2 | diverse_izzue: yes that would be a good step | 15:45 |
| diverse_izzue | ok, will do | 15:45 |
| bryceh2 | diverse_izzue: fwiw I also have a tv that seems to have similarly regressed - no idea if it's the same problem | 15:45 |
| bryceh2 | actually the symptom behaviors were different but it was also due to edid not getting read from the device | 15:46 |
| diverse_izzue | may well be. i'll give you a link to the kernel bug once submitted | 15:46 |
| diverse_izzue | sigh, when will the day come where connecting a second screen doesn't involve praying? | 15:47 |
| bryceh2 | I suspect that when modesetting moved from X to kernel, something resulted in tv edid extraction not working (at least for my tv) | 15:47 |
| diverse_izzue | oh damn, kernel.org is still down! | 15:47 |
| bryceh2 | diverse_izzue: for me, I saw different results from different outputs from the tv | 15:49 |
| bryceh2 | I found that a particular output would work ok with the -nvidia driver, so that's what i ended up with | 15:49 |
| diverse_izzue | when you say output, do you mean connector, or resolution? | 15:50 |
| bryceh2 | connector | 15:50 |
| bryceh2 | diverse_izzue: instead of kernel.org, you could try filing against the intel X driver at bugs.freedesktop.org | 15:50 |
| bryceh2 | it's the same guys that look at both bug trackers | 15:51 |
| diverse_izzue | okay, will do | 15:52 |
| diverse_izzue | what xorg version are we at in oneiric? | 15:53 |
| diverse_izzue | bryceh2, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40841 | 15:56 |
| bryceh2 | xserver 1.10.4. | 15:59 |
| bryceh2 | diverse_izzue: but for this it's more the kernel version that matters | 15:59 |
| bryceh2 | diverse_izzue: I see from your dmesg log there's a failure with the displayport connector - which connector was your tv connected to? | 16:00 |
| diverse_izzue | the analog VGA port | 16:00 |
| bryceh2 | there's also a line [ 3.595121] [drm:intel_tv_init], Integrated TV is not present. | 16:01 |
| diverse_izzue | whatever that means... | 16:02 |
| bryceh2 | yeah, dunno | 16:03 |
| bryceh2 | [ 3.930672] [drm:drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes], [CONNECTOR:12:VGA-1] [ 3.950050] [drm:intel_crt_detect], CRT not detected via hotplug [ 3.950055] [drm:drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes], [CONNECTOR:12:VGA-1] disconnected | 16:03 |
| bryceh2 | so it's not seeing anything connected to VGA | 16:03 |
| diverse_izzue | bryceh2, iirc hotplug is working, it does realise something is connected, it just doesn't offer me the right resolution | 16:04 |
| bryceh2 | ah yes you're hotplugging it later in the log | 16:07 |
| bryceh2 | [ 1693.636443] [drm:drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes], [CONNECTOR:12:VGA-1] [ 1693.660245] [drm:intel_crt_detect], CRT detected via hotplug [ 1693.680424] [drm:drm_helper_probe_single_connector_modes], [CONNECTOR:12:VGA-1] probed modes : [ 1693.680427] [drm:drm_mode_debug_printmodeline], Modeline 36:"1024x768" 60 65000 1024 1048 1184 1344 768 771 777 806 0x40 0xa [ 1693.680430] [drm:drm_mode_debug_printmodeline], Modeline 34: | 16:07 |
| bryceh2 | diverse_izzue: have you tried disabling the LVDS? | 16:08 |
| bryceh2 | ala xrandr --output LVDS1 --off | 16:09 |
| diverse_izzue | that's my internal screen? | 16:09 |
| bryceh2 | right | 16:09 |
| bryceh2 | I think it won't help to turn it off, though. | 16:09 |
| diverse_izzue | neither do i... but i will give it a try | 16:10 |
| bryceh2 | diverse_izzue: also, what happens if you have the tv connected while you boot it? | 16:10 |
| diverse_izzue | good point, will try also | 16:11 |
| diverse_izzue | will be sporadically away now, cooking fooooood | 16:12 |
