mlankhorstRAOF: yeah but that was after that comment he put in :)06:56
mlankhorstI just wanted to know if there was a way to say 'hold on until I have more info I don't want to risk it getting upstream'06:57
mlankhorsts/upstream/in updates/06:58
mlankhorstoh timing06:59
mlankhorstRAOF: yeah but that was after that comment he put in. I just wanted to know if there was a way to say 'hold on until I have more info I don't want to risk it getting released'06:59
mlankhorstRAOF: can synaptics be sru'd?07:52
RAOFmlankhorst: Yes; failing anything else, I'll get to it on my SRU team day tomorrow.08:15

seb128RAOF, mlankhorst: what's the deal with those workitems?09:59
seb128[raof] Switch on SNA for -intel in quantal post-alpha1 once it's had a week to bake in -edgers: TODO09:59
seb128[bryce] Forward SNA-related -intel bugs to Intel between alpha1 and alpha2: BLOCKED09:59
seb128[ubuntu-x-swat] Evaluate shippability of SNA for -intel in quantal pre-alpha-2: BLOCKED09:59
seb128[raof] Drop libgl1-mesa-swx11 and 8bit/16bit osmesa packages from mesa post-alpha1: TODO09:59
seb128 09:59
seb128we are past post-alpha1 ;-)10:00
seb128we are post-alpha2!10:00
seb128do you know why the BLOCKED as well? what is blocking?10:00
RAOFI may be missing some context here?10:05
seb128RAOF, sorry, https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/desktop-q-xorg-general10:16
seb128RAOF, those are work items from that spec10:16
seb128RAOF, I just noticed reviewing the list that they seemed to be "post a1" items and we are post a2 ... so I was wondering what's the status on thelm10:17
tjaaltonseb128: sna just got enabled in edgers last week10:54
tjaaltonso slightly behind schedule there10:55
mlankhorstRAOF: lets drop swx11 and enable vdpau then?10:55
tjaaltonand the other task is blocked because of that10:55
tjaaltonlet the debian bug reporter sort out the packaging bits first?10:56
tjaaltonthat's why it got reverted from our mesa10:56
tjaaltonhandling hw-specific config files is not trivial10:56
mlankhorstoh k10:56
mlankhorstfairly sure mesa no longer uses config files though10:56
mlankhorstor at least had an attempt to use autoconf more10:57
tjaalton/etc/XvMCConfig or what it was called10:58
tjaaltonnot for vdpau10:58
mlankhorstthat's used by the xvmc wrapper10:58
tjaaltonthe patch enabled that too10:58
mlankhorstit could be moved towards loading xvmc lib based on driver like vdpau does10:59
mlankhorstbut dropping xvmc altogether sounds like a better plan11:00
tjaaltonyeah, not much useful these days11:00
RAOFmlankhorst: Yup. That can me my reward after processing the SRU queue tomorrow :)11:14
mlankhorstah k11:19
seb128tjaalton, mlankhorst, RAOF: can somebody update the workitems to reflect the new target? is a3 realistic?11:45
mlankhorstshould be easy11:46

mlankhorstgood enough?14:42
tjaaltonLtd.14:42
tjaaltonthere's probably some template on wiki.c.c14:42
tjaaltonor just copy from elsewhere14:42
mlankhorsthm ok :)14:43
mlankhorstI finished my initial dma-buf-mgr stub, surprisingly little survived of my initial code. Now to hook it up..14:43
ogra_so i got this new machine ... with two radeon 6670 cards and three monitors ...15:34
ogra_apparently to use all three across the two cards i need to enable xinerama ... which then disables composite ... 15:34
ogra_is there any reason that we build our xserver in a way that excludes composite when xinerama is on ? i thought that was fixed in 1.1015:35
jcristauit's not really15:36
ogra_and what is http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/commit/?id=84a14fab8f930ef1855444ae4e9e3e14ee008328 ?15:36
ogra_i thought that enabled it 15:37
* ogra_ was hoping it was only a build time switch we miss15:37
mlankhorstand v2 sent to ml :)16:07
brycehogra_, have you tried with the blob?17:33
cndbryceh: do you know when the quantal X server is going to be uploaded?17:34
=== pzanoni_ is now known as pzanoni
brycehcnd, do you mean 1.12?  That went u p last week17:36
cndbryceh: oh great!17:36
cndI just got back from a small vacation17:36
brycehcnd, we expect to continue pulling upstream versions off and on through to the 1.13 release17:36
cndso I didn't notice17:36
brycehcnd, welcome back!17:36
cndoh, quantal will be 1.13?17:36
cndthat makes fixing upstream bugs easier :)17:36
brycehwell, that's the target, but we'll keep options open until we can bang on it and make sure it's safe17:37
cndyeah17:37
cndI'm going to be trying to fix an upstream bug today, so us being on 1.12 now is nice17:37
* bryceh nods17:38
brycehmlankhorst, reminds me; you now can start rolling the LTS point release scripts to set up those 12.x PPAs now17:39
mlankhorstbryceh: ah was still busy with dma-buf synching but got to the point where I like the api :)17:42
mlankhorstdo you mean 12.x straight or renamed?17:42
brycehmlankhorst, renamed17:43
mlankhorstoh sure, will do!17:43
mlankhorstbryceh: kept myself busy with the synching problem, found a nice solution for deadlocks on free, simply wait until deferred fput patches hit mainline, problem goes away by itself there. The synching api itself will be done by a renamed and slightly modified version of ttm reservation.17:48
brycehmlankhorst, cool17:48
brycehmlankhorst, do those fput patches make any sense to think about SRUing to precise?17:49
mlankhorstprobably not, but it will be in the backported kernel17:49
* bryceh nods17:49
brycehok sounds good17:49
mlankhorstthere's only 1 opportunity for deadlocking now in dma-buf and that should be solved by not taking the lock there.17:50
ricotzbryceh, hi :)19:14
ricotzbryceh, could you push a rebuild of nvidia-blob for abi 12 in quantal?19:15
tjaaltontseliot's business19:37
tjaaltonactually19:38
tjaaltonmlankhorst: you uploaded nvidia the last time?19:38
tjaaltonricotz: they should be fine, no?19:40
mlankhorsttjaalton: nope?19:42
mlankhorstbut yeah should have been rebuilt19:42
tjaaltoni'm not sure if they use the automatic stuff19:43
tjaaltonbut hardcoded values19:43
ricotztjaalton, currently not19:43
ricotzit just needs and rebuild19:43
ricotzand/an19:43
tjaaltonhttps://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/quantal-changes/2012-June/003202.html19:44
tjaaltonhow come that didn't fix it then19:44
ricotztjaalton, 302.1719:44
tjaaltonthat's not in quantal19:44
ricotzhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/302.17-0ubuntu119:45
tjaaltonok, well that was uploaded even later, so19:45
Sarvatthe uploaded straight to ubuntu when x was in proposed?19:46
ricotzSarvatt, probably19:46
tjaaltonok19:46
ricotztjaalton, fact is it depends on abi 11 instead of 12 ;)19:46
ricotzso i hope someone could push a rebuild19:47
jcristauif a rebuild changes that, something's broken19:51
ricotzjcristau, it automatically picks up the abi version provided by xserver-xorg-dev, what is broken with that?19:52
tjaaltonthe blob doesn't automatically gain new abi19:53
jcristauit's a blob.  you know the abi versions it supports statically19:53
jcristauit doesn't depend on what you build against at all19:53
ricotzthe packaging does it that way19:53
jcristauthen the packaging is screwed up.19:53
ricotzso this would need to be changed then19:53
tjaaltoni've downloaded it19:54
ricotzi am not here to argue about this, i am just saying nvidia-blob is not installable in this condition and a rebuild against the newer xserver fixes it19:55
ricotzdespite the fact that the packaging might need some rethinking in this case19:55
Sarvattjcristau: i very much agree, but its like that so its not installable when it doesn't support the new abi in the gui driver installer19:57
tjaaltonhm?19:57
bryceh%-)19:59
tjaaltoni can push the rebuild19:59
tjaaltonand worry about the packaging later..19:59
ricotztjaalton, thanks20:04
tjaaltonnice, firefox and tbird both taking ~80% cpu21:15
tjaaltonok both were due to the leapsecond mess21:52
