RAOFHuh.03:11
RAOFSynaptics would be much more useful if it didn't reset the pointer position to (0,0) every five seconds of movement or so.03:12
SarvattRAOF: the fix went into rc6 :)03:16
Sarvatt s/fix/revert/03:17
RAOFRight.  rc6 makes this Dell all manner of pleasant.03:17
Sarvattcool beans, not surprised03:17
RAOFOr, rather, the lack of that fix makes this Dell all manner of unpleasant :)03:17
RAOFSarvatt: Do you remember a bug where synaptics would keep resetting to (0,0)+03:18
RAOF?03:18
Sarvatthmm03:18
Sarvattso theres a bug where unity does that regardless of the driver with wine03:18
Sarvatti havent reported that yet03:18
Sarvattits very annoying with steam menus03:18
RAOFYeah.03:19
Sarvattit happens on evdev and synaptics and mtouch here03:19
Sarvattso its not a synaptics bug if thats what you're hitting03:19
RAOFNo.03:19
RAOFThis is the pointer moving, rather than the menu moving.03:19
Sarvattclick a menu entry in steam under wine, everything moves up to 0,0 including the menu contents03:20
Sarvattdropdown shows up at 0,003:20
RAOFYeah, know that one.03:20
Sarvattok so different03:20
Sarvattsynaptics moving to 0,0.. do you have an accelerometer device also?03:20
RAOFThis is just the pointer resetting to (0,0) in the middle of touchpad movement, which is unsettling.03:20
Sarvattthats the only one i remember03:20
RAOFAlso interacts really poorly with gnome-shell ;)03:20
Sarvatti haven't actually used synaptics in almost a year here so if its busted i'm not sure, damn alps touchpads being in everything now03:22
Sarvattwhat system is it busted on? the x201s?03:23
RAOFThe Inspiron N411003:23
RAOFWhich I'm using because (a) I was testing out whether fglrx supports hybrid on it (it doesn't) and (b) it's the fastest i5 in the house with a working harddrive.03:24
Sarvattcool they sending you more crap?03:24
Sarvattits funny the cheaper mainstream dells are using synaptics and the more expensive latitude/precisons are using alps crap03:25
RAOFI don't know if it's a synaptics touchpad; it's using the synaptics DDX, though.03:26
RAOFNo, this is one of the two hybrid systems I got at UDS.03:26
Sarvattprecise?03:26
RAOFSince the T420s decided to bail on me ☹03:26
RAOFYah, precise.03:26
Sarvattactually i think sforshee made alps use synaptics in precise03:26
RAOFIt works, as long as you're using -rc6 :)03:26
Sarvatthavent played with that yet03:26
RAOFdmesg reports synaptics.03:27
RAOFSo I guess this has an honest to goodness touchpad in it.03:27
Sarvattwow i really need to put in a feature request for hexr now, it only lists lspci devices so touchpad doesnt show up03:28
RAOFHeh.  Whoops :)03:29
SarvattRAOF: so its an alps, there may be something screwy with sforshee's kernel drivers to make alps use synaptics thats already upstream03:33
Sarvatton that specific machine03:33
RAOFIt could also be the franken input ;)03:33
RAOFIt looks like evtest is seeing correctish numbers.03:33
Sarvattoh you're on frankenserver?03:33
RAOFYah.03:34
Sarvattvery likely then :)03:34
* Sarvatt makes mental note to try it out in the morning03:34
Sarvattsame touchpad as in the e6420 from what i can see03:34
Sarvatti haven't tried sforshee's alps driver out yet that lets it use synaptics03:35
RAOFI'll give it a whirl on the e6420 too, once it's finished slurping all my data off the failing harddrive.03:35
Sarvatti'm still in oneiric land, trying to get ivb on oneiric going good before it needs to be done in a month or two03:36
SarvattRAOF: did you get my messages about frozen synapse?03:37
RAOFYEah.03:37
Sarvatti can send ya the linux client that works with the key i sent you if you want03:37
RAOFThanks.03:37
RAOFI'll give it a whirl :)03:38
Sarvattor would ya rather have a steam one?03:38
RAOFI like steam.  Steam is good :)03:38
Sarvattboo03:40
RAOFBoo?03:40
Sarvatti only have a multiplayer key to spare for the non steam one :)03:40
Sarvattyou missed the humble bundle with it!03:40
RAOFI have tons of games to play :)03:40
RAOFAw, man.  This laptop's keyboard layout is *specificly* designed to make me hit "menu" instead of "control"06:30

RAOFSarvatt: Were you going to do a libdrm/Intel DDX update?21:56
RAOFSarvatt: Because if not, I might as well do it during 1.11 world-rebuilding.21:57
brycehcnd, wow not even a sliver of lip service that you did anything to help with upstream multitouch - http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=MTAzMDQ22:03
jcristaumeh, phoronix.22:04
RAOFEh, yeah.22:05
bjsniderphoronix is always right about everything22:19
broderis mesa supposed fail miserably under valgrind because of some sort of deep graphics magic?22:25
broderi'm seeing a lot of uninitialized values on natty in various mesa calls22:27
jcristaunot afaik22:27
jcristauthere's a lot of false positives from drm ioctls, but..22:27
RAOFPiglit has a "run under valgrind" set of tests, as evidence for the "supposed to work under valgrind" hypothesis.22:28
broderworking on getting a test with full debug symbols, but i get lots of stuff during mutter's startup: http://paste.ubuntu.com/775784/22:30
jcristauall of that is false positives, maybe except the last one22:33
jcristaunot completely sure about the i965 ones but you don't have symbols for that so meh22:34
broderjcristau: http://paste.ubuntu.com/775793/ has symbols22:36
broderall of that is during startup22:36
SarvattRAOF: was waiting on libdrm 2.4.30 which was supposed to be pushed out awhile back so an intel-gpu-tools release could go out too but i guess thats no excuse not to do intel 2.1722:46
Sarvattbroder: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3507122:46
ubot4Freedesktop bug 35071 in Drivers/DRI/i965 "Valgrind warnings in _mesa_texstore_argb8888" [Enhancement,New: ]22:46
broderoh, awesome. thanks22:47
SarvattPrf_Jakob: it was just http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-video-vmware/commit/?h=vmware-11.1-branch&id=26845eb54a15d43f09288a87c5f74beac8fb6ec7 which caused a bad compilation on amd64 even though it was successful22:47
Sarvattthat was already in a release, vmwgfx_branch was on the old 11.0.322:48
Prf_Jakobah ok22:49
Sarvatthttps://launchpadlibrarian.net/79714941/buildlog_ubuntu-oneiric-amd64.xserver-xorg-video-vmware_1%3A11.0.3-2ubuntu0_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz22:49
Prf_JakobHmm I thought Thomas merged the vmwgfx_branch to master, apperently not.22:49
Sarvattyeah it was merged when i looked this afternoon22:49
Sarvattyup still merged22:50
Sarvattoh you mean the vmwgfx_branch is still on 11.0.3, sorry22:50
Prf_JakobWell we should probably kill that branch now.22:50
Prf_JakobOh I just followed your link when I looked at log, no wonder I didn't see the merge (was on the vmware-11.1 branch)22:51
