Sarvattbryceh: how do you feel about cedarview BS in multiverse for 12.04? we have drivers, they only work on i386 and only with unity 2D, and any kind of GL crashes the system. I whipped up packaging in a few hours the other day and don't want this crap to be private since someone can possible benefit from it but not sure it makes sense in the archive given all the limitations and lack of support (it'll never work in 12.10 when we do xserver 1.13, the int02:35
Sarvattel group caring about it for the LTS is guranteed never to care)02:35
Sarvattnot sure if it makes sense to push it into 12.04 at this point, i feel like a PPA would be better since we'll get bugs that cant be fixed02:36
* Sarvatt feels sorry for anyone buying these things, at least most manufacturers outside of asus and HP were smart enough to drop netbooks this generation until atom uses ivybridge gpus next generation02:39
Sarvattlibwsbm is already in precise for it, outside of this there are 3 packages for the drm driver, userspace X/3D drivers and vaapi drivers but i'm torn on pushing it into 12.04 directly. they are just gong to build up bugs we can't fix.02:43

bjsniderSarvatt, intel didn't produce a good driver for that hardware?03:15
Sarvattits intel UMG not the open source guys, no of course not :)03:15
bjsniderok03:16
Sarvattits 32 bit only even in windows even though the cpu supports x64 fine03:16
bjsniderdepending on the ram it may not need the addressing space03:17
Prf_JakobIts no the extra addressing space but the 8 extra regs that are nice.03:42
SarvattPrf_Jakob: any benefit to running the tech preview or did it just fix auto-install stuff on 12.04?04:07
Sarvattthere was a internal discussion on it and people thought they needed to update to that to try the 3D stuff which absolutely isn't true, just the option they had to enable was not obvious04:11
Sarvattone person said they were presented with a dialog that it only worked for windows guests that i've never seen04:12
Sarvattanyway st patty's day, off to enjoy whats left of it :)04:13
Prf_JakobSarvatt: the tp is faster but not needed.04:23
tjaaltonbryceh: no problem, and tbh I did notice the upload but forgot to remind you to push the changes, so my bad :)05:44
brycehSarvatt, I guess the important thing is avoiding implying that the codebase is being actively maintained by the ubuntu-x guys08:47
tjaaltonhm, compiz crashed with the intel_miptree_release() error when starting terminator15:53
