broderbah - sorry, did i miss a response?05:59
Sarvattbroder: ya didnt ask anything in this channel06:01
broderoh, ok. irc client must have flaked worse than it looked06:02
broderon a standard desktop, is there something other than g-p-m (or g-s-d now) that will blank the screen? the kernel or something?06:02
Sarvattnot that i'm aware of, should only be g-s-d now06:03
broderdid the kernel used to?06:04
broderi have a (2-4 yr old intel chip, running natty) machine in front of me that blanks the screen after 5-10 minutes in spite of /apps/gnome-power-manager/timeout/sleep_display_ac being 006:05
Sarvattwhats the gnome-screensaver timeout?06:07
broderooh, look at that06:07
broderi uninstalled gnome-ss uninstalled, but xset q tells me there's still a screensaver timeout set06:08
broderSarvatt: cool, i can chase this from here. thanks for that :)06:10

Prf_JakobSarvatt, RAOF: It looks like the new 12.04 installer requires a larger screen then 800x600.20:14
Prf_JakobWhich happens to be the default screen size for VM's20:14
brycehPrf_Jakob, you mean for the webcam picture taker thingee?20:18
Prf_Jakobbryceh: no just the installer, got a bug report saying that some controlls ended up outside the screen.20:18
Prf_JakobThat is I don't know if it is that.20:19
brycehit probably is, there's a bug filed about it against ubiquity already20:19
brycehI ran into that myself doing an install on a netbook20:20
Prf_Jakobok20:20
Prf_JakobWe can up the default the screen size in the driver, but that would lead to uncomfritables for netbooks.20:20
Prf_Jakobbryceh: do you happen to have the bug number available?20:23
brycehPrf_Jakob, I think it really should be fixed in ubiquity.  It looks to me like they just need to scale the pictures being displayed when the screen resolution is below 800x60020:23
Prf_Jakobyeah that would be better.20:24
brycehPrf_Jakob, not offhand20:24
Prf_Jakobok20:24
brycehhttps://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/86923920:24
ubot4Launchpad bug 869239 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "webcam screen should be resized for netbooks (Eee PC, 10") (affects: 8) (dups: 3) (heat: 48)" [High,Triaged]20:24
Prf_Jakobthanks!20:24
brycehthank firefox url autocomplete :-)20:24
Prf_Jakobhaha :)20:25
brycehPrf_Jakob, if you can add your case to that bug report, I'll bump up the importance on it a notch20:25
brycehmaybe it'll get some attention20:25
Prf_JakobOkay, which email/pass combo did I use..20:38
Prf_Jakobbryceh: ok done.20:44
brycehalrighty20:59
brycehit should show up on the release manager's list for alpha-2 now, which should ensure it gets some attention21:00
Prf_Jakobbryceh: thanks, are you guys shipping 12.04 with mesa 8.0/7.12?21:18
brycehPrf_Jakob, yep21:33
Prf_Jakobright, I'm guessing you are not using the xa_branch of xf86-video-vmware repo tho.21:34
brycehnot sure, I haven't looked at the -vmware package in some time21:36
Prf_Jakobhttp://packages.ubuntu.com/precise/x11/xserver-xorg-video-vmware <-- doesn't mention it in the package log.21:37
SarvattPrf_Jakob: speaking of that, is that branch not going to get pushed to master or something?21:43
brycehPrf_Jakob, looks like we're just pulling from debian, so probably would be best if any branch changes be coordinated through them21:44
Sarvattits probably going to be another month or so at least, need a 8.0 mesa branch to enable xatracker for it and all but was just assuming vmwgfx_branch would go to master at some point21:47
Prf_JakobYeah that branch is going to be merged soon.21:51
Prf_JakobSarvatt: Okay, good to know.21:52
