| bryceh | hey, there was someone who was really keen on working with us on the multihead xrandr stuff; anyone remember who that was? | 01:36 |
|---|---|---|
| bryceh | aha, ayan it was | 01:37 |
| RAOF | Also Evan. | 02:05 |
| * broder waves | 02:06 | |
| broder | Yeah, I never seem to quite get up the throughput I want, but I am very interested in multihead stuff | 02:06 |
| RAOF | Yo yo! | 02:06 |
| RAOF | Story of our lives :) | 02:06 |
| broder | (And I'm happy to rant passionately about how I think things should work :-P) | 02:06 |
| RAOF | Should the design team start making unreasonable demands I'll be sure to roll you out :) | 02:07 |
| bryceh | broder, awesome! | 02:09 |
| bryceh | broder, so, we've roughed out the blueprints enough to be worth perusing I think | 02:09 |
| broder | Yeah, I have them sitting in my inbox and was planning to look through them this evening when I got home from work | 02:09 |
| bryceh | broder, tentatively we've assigned many of the work items, but I think both raof and I are over limit on tasks so if you happen to be interested in one or two we'd be happy to share :-) | 02:10 |
| broder | Most of my interest is around what happens at the g-s-d/gnome-desktop level or so | 02:10 |
| * bryceh nods | 02:10 | |
| bryceh | broder, in the near term I'll be focusing mainly on the X side of stuff, but expect in 1-2 months the gnome-rr bits will start becoming worth giving attention to | 02:11 |
| bryceh | later on there's probably going to be a fair bit of testing and polishing needed | 02:11 |
| bryceh | I'm still a little sketchy on where Design's work fits in, but figure that'll get sorted out | 02:12 |
| * broder nods | 02:12 | |
| bryceh | meantime, if you know of any bug#'s relevant to any of this, shoot them my way; I'm going to build a collection of 'em | 02:12 |
| bryceh | RAOF, I've worsened your Work Item overload today, sorry about that. Figure we will need to do some prioritization and filtering the next day or two | 02:14 |
| RAOF | bryceh: That's ok. Roughly 30 of my work-items aren't actually mine. | 02:15 |
| RAOF | When pitti's awake I'll work out how they should be marked. | 02:15 |
| * bryceh nods | 02:17 | |
| bryceh | yeah I'm waiting for status to update so I can see what my score is currently | 02:18 |
| broder | RAOF: i know we were talking about wayland and grabs (or lack thereof) at uds. does wayland have an answer for, e.g., polkit prompts where you want to own the keyboard/mouse to be sure you get the credentials? | 03:59 |
| RAOF | Not as far as I'm aware, no. | 04:00 |
| RAOF | Although I suspect that the correct answer is "build it into the shell" | 04:00 |
| RAOF | Which is, after all, what we plan to do anyway. | 04:00 |
| broder | good point | 04:00 |
| RAOF | And that's obviously easier with wayland, because your shell is your compositor and can simply gobble up the input. | 04:01 |
| tjaalton | RAOF: disable it (the touchpad) ;) | 05:43 |
| RAOF | I rather like *having* a touchpad, especially an almost-multitouch one. This clearly reports 3 fingers; it just does it badly! | 05:44 |
| RAOF | Also, two-finger scrolling is love. | 05:44 |
| tjaalton | middle-button + nipple does the same | 05:45 |
| RAOF | This is true. It doesn't do it as well, though. | 05:46 |
| tjaalton | well, the touchpad gets on my way all the time, so I just disabled it from bios | 05:46 |
| Sarvatt | RAOF: hmm, when I used that last it was tolerable under oneiric | 11:04 |
| Sarvatt | RAOF: if you want to see bad, try lucid | 11:05 |
| Sarvatt | the cursor moves constantly just resting your finger in one spot | 11:05 |
| ricotz | Sarvatt, hey :) | 11:10 |
| ricotz | looks like there is a fglrx driver with 1.11 support ;) | 11:10 |
| jcristau | only two months late? | 11:12 |
| tjaalton | they didn't need to rush it this time :) | 11:16 |
| jcristau | tjaalton: because of 11.10 not shipping with 1.11? | 11:17 |
| ricotz | yeah, unfortunatelly, they need some pressure to catch up ;) | 11:17 |
| tjaalton | jcristau: right | 11:17 |
| tjaalton | jcristau: well, that's the theory anyway | 11:17 |
| ricotz | having fglrx support now could change this | 11:18 |
| tjaalton | change what? | 11:18 |
| ricotz | not going with 1.11 | 11:19 |
| jcristau | for 11.10? | 11:19 |
| jcristau | a bit too late for that. | 11:19 |
| tjaalton | yep | 11:19 |
| ricotz | 12.04 | 11:19 |
| tjaalton | precise will get it soon | 11:19 |
| ricotz | ah, nvm thinking about 1.12 | 11:20 |
| tseliot | ricotz: I'm on it | 11:26 |
| tseliot | (fglrx) | 11:27 |
| ricotz | tseliot, thanks :), still hoping for nvidia 285.x for oneiric | 11:27 |
| ricotz | tseliot, could you upload fglrx to edgers too (natty, oneiric, precise) | 11:28 |
| tseliot | ricotz: I haven't made an announcement yet but have a look at bug #887630 | 11:28 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 887630 in nvidia-settings-updates (Ubuntu Precise) (and 5 other projects) "SRU: update nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates to 285.05.09 (affects: 4) (dups: 1) (heat: 20)" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/887630 | 11:28 |
| ricotz | tseliot, or point me to the fglrx upload and i push it to the ppa | 11:29 |
| ricotz | tseliot, thanks! | 11:29 |
| tseliot | ricotz: yes, I'm going to upload it to precise first. I can ping you when it's done | 11:29 |
| ricotz | tseliot, ok | 11:30 |

| bryceh | Intel says mesa 7.11 coming next week; 8.0 will be in january with open gl 3.0. Bugfix versions in feb. | 16:40 |
| jcristau | they don't do RCs for mesa anymore? | 16:41 |
| Sarvatt | 7.11.1 | 16:43 |
| jcristau | ah right 7.11 is already out. silly me. | 16:44 |
| Sarvatt | they did rc's for point releases of mesa at one point? | 16:44 |
| Sarvatt | oh | 16:44 |
| jcristau | i was just confused :) | 16:44 |
| ricotz | bryceh, i got lucky looking for a newer wacom driver and they have done a new release, you might want to grab this https://launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/+archive/ppa/+sourcepub/2079193/+listing-archive-extra | 17:15 |
| Sarvatt | ricotz: tjaalton is the one to poke about that :) | 17:18 |
| ricotz | oh, alright, i just looked at the last changelog entry | 17:19 |
| ricotz | tjaalton, perhaps you want to grab this update for precise ^ | 17:19 |
| ricotz | Sarvatt, it even suppose to work with ABI 14 (1.12) ;) | 17:20 |
| Sarvatt | our stuff is different than the debian ones and not maintained in pkg-xorg, he does it in his own branch on git.debian.org | 17:21 |
| jcristau | ricotz: ABI 14 is not 1.12. | 17:21 |
| ricotz | Sarvatt, i see, this is an uupdate from the precise package | 17:21 |
| ricotz | jcristau, currently it is | 17:22 |
| jcristau | 1.12 doesn't exist, and i expect its ABI will see a few more bumps. | 17:22 |
| jcristau | no it's not | 17:22 |
| ricotz | input abi | 17:22 |
| Sarvatt | its not pushed yet and could be 15 or more by the time it releases is what he means | 17:22 |
| Sarvatt | jcristau: we're most likely going to have a horrible abomination xserver this time, input stack from 1.12 on 1.11 (yay..) | 17:23 |
| jcristau | Sarvatt: ewww | 17:24 |
| jcristau | because 1.12 comes too late? | 17:24 |
| Sarvatt | yeah feature freeze is feb 16th and there hasn't even been any talk of release dates or following of schedule so far so its a bit up in the air | 17:25 |
| Sarvatt | oh it is abi 14 right now, doubt its going to be 14 in 1.12 then | 17:29 |
| ricotz | jcristau, yeah, i meant "currently", i know it is still in transition, just saying it is nice having a driver following it | 17:29 |
| ricotz | Sarvatt, i guess the multitouch stuff might bump it further | 17:29 |
| ricotz | if it finally lands... | 17:30 |
| tjaalton | ricotz: sure | 18:31 |
| tjaalton | and while the branch is on my own repo, pkg-xorg has write access | 18:31 |
| tjaalton | hmm, haven't seen wacom release announcements on any list | 18:39 |
| tjaalton | oh there's a separate list for it.. | 18:40 |
| ricotz | tjaalton, ok, i just got from the sourceforge page | 19:07 |
| Sarvatt | oh wow, cairo 1.12 this week | 19:18 |
| Sarvatt | release candidates? who needs em | 19:19 |
| bryceh | mesa 7.11.2 in december specifically | 20:22 |
| bryceh | and a .3 in january in addition to 8.0 | 20:23 |
| Milos_SD | Hello... Why is there no fglrx 11.11 drivers packaged in xorg-edgers or x-swap ppa? :) | 22:09 |
