| bandit5432 | 304.30-0ubuntu1~xedgers~precise1 only showing the color blue when playing games | 01:05 |
|---|---|---|
| bandit5432 | and the nvidia forums would be down becuas of hacking | 01:08 |
| mlankhorst | hm I'm pretty sure I had a dream RE'ing nouveau.. | 06:08 |
| tjaalton | you'd end up having the blob? :) | 06:12 |
| cousin_luigi | Greetings. | 06:52 |
| cousin_luigi | Does the current nvidia-graphics-drivers contain the privilege escalation bug? | 06:52 |
| jcristau | yes | 06:55 |
| cousin_luigi | Oh, so it would be pointless to add the x-swat repository just to address that?:/ | 06:57 |
| jcristau | unless you're switching to nouveau at the same time.. | 06:59 |
| cousin_luigi | :| | 07:04 |
| cousin_luigi | nouveau is horribly slow | 07:04 |
| cousin_luigi | thanks, bbl | 07:13 |
| LLStarks | can i add this to the hybrid graphics spec since the necessary x bits are starting to land? | 07:31 |
| LLStarks | http://people.freedesktop.org/~airlied/prime-notes.txt | 07:31 |
| tjaalton | there, all relevant drivers uploaded to quantal-proposed | 08:17 |
| tjaalton | should make {input,video}-all installable | 08:17 |
| tjaalton | didn't care about the rest, might be time to banish them from the archive too :P | 08:20 |
| tjaalton | mlankhorst: i guess there's no need to update xorg for -proposed? | 08:31 |
| tjaalton | anything else missing? | 08:31 |
| mlankhorst | erm libxrandr needs updating to build with the 1.4.0 bump | 08:32 |
| mlankhorst | but nearly done with i915 for now, I got it to hang by removing the part where I signal fence completion :) | 08:33 |
| tjaalton | ok | 08:33 |
| mlankhorst | which means that the code actually does block like it should and wait for completion | 08:33 |
| tjaalton | i'll have some lunch soon, after that will upgrade my other laptop to see it's still working with -proposed | 08:34 |
| mlankhorst | hehe | 09:12 |
| mlankhorst | I should as well when it works | 09:13 |
| mlankhorst | ironically you're just in time | 09:13 |
| mlankhorst | http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~mlankhorst/linux/log/ | 09:13 |
| mlankhorst | kernel side: done-ish | 09:13 |
| tjaalton | if llstarks comes back, the url can be added to the blueprint imo, with a note that most of it is already in released modules | 09:17 |
| tjaalton | but now, lunch -> | 09:17 |
| mlankhorst | as soon as libdrm comes along, just need to pull my git tree + other drivers for prime updates | 09:18 |
| seb128 | tjaalton, " * Sync from unreleased debian git." | 09:25 |
| seb128 | tjaalton, you should use -0build1 in those case rather than -0ubuntu1 | 09:25 |
| seb128 | tjaalton, so they are auto-syncable next cycle, if they really are in a syncable state | 09:25 |
| mlankhorst | seb128: doesn't matter much, whole xorg usually needs to be manually updated | 09:27 |
| tjaalton | seb128: good point, didn't think of that. i'll probably be the one syncing them so no harm done :) | 11:13 |
| mlankhorst | tjaalton: can i see somewhere how the build status is going? | 11:17 |
| tjaalton | mlankhorst: should be all built | 11:18 |
| tjaalton | vmware got built immediately, and it was the last one | 11:19 |
| mlankhorst | ah perfect | 11:19 |
| mlankhorst | time to run the rename script again then | 11:19 |
| tjaalton | does it only rename the drivers that *-all depend on? | 11:20 |
| mlankhorst | I have no idea, think it had a few more | 11:20 |
| mlankhorst | but we'll see | 11:20 |
| mlankhorst | too tempting to see if I can put up my own kernel somewhere with all the changes I was using.. | 11:44 |
| tjaalton | mlankhorst: duh, forgot vmmouse | 13:26 |
| tjaalton | and geode | 13:26 |
| mlankhorst | geode :D | 13:27 |
| tjaalton | indeed | 13:29 |
| cweiske | Hi. I've read that dmx has been included in X.org a while ago. is it still necessary to install xdmx then? | 13:31 |
| jcristau | if you want to use Xdmx you need the xdmx package.. | 13:32 |
| cweiske | but isn't dmx and xdmx the same? giving me the ability to add remote displays to the currently running server? | 13:36 |
| jcristau | i don't know what you read | 13:37 |
| tjaalton | bryceh: in retrospect, you probably could've kept the patch from -0u10.4 when dropped the other ones :) | 14:19 |
| tjaalton | anyway, easy to re-enable | 14:20 |
| tjaalton | ok, finally upgrading to the proposed stack | 14:35 |
| tjaalton | lightdm starts, ship it! | 14:53 |
| tjaalton | X.Org X Server 1.12.99.902 (1.13.0 RC 2) | 14:53 |
| mlankhorst | awesome | 14:56 |
| tjaalton | on intel anyway | 14:56 |
| tjaalton | X.Org X Server 1.12.99.902 (1.13.0 RC 2) | 14:57 |
| tjaalton | oops | 14:58 |
| cousin_luigi | Greetings. | 18:06 |
| cousin_luigi | Is there a ppa for the nvidia beta (304.xx) driver? | 18:07 |
| Sarvatt | cousin_luigi: ya can grab it here https://launchpad.net/~sarvatt/+archive/nvidia | 18:09 |
| cousin_luigi | Sarvatt: Thanks, man! | 18:09 |
| cousin_luigi | Sarvatt: Do you happen to know if the privilege escalation bug has been addressed in that release? | 18:10 |
| Sarvatt | no it hasn't, that was released after the driver was | 18:10 |
| mdeslaur | cousin_luigi: there is no fix for that yet | 18:10 |
| cousin_luigi | Sarvatt: I see, so it's not worth bother trying:/ | 18:10 |
| cousin_luigi | mdeslaur: Just how severe is it? Can it be triggered by a specially crafted image loaded in a browser for example? | 18:11 |
| cousin_luigi | I could live with it if it was only local. | 18:12 |
| mdeslaur | cousin_luigi: no, it's a local privilege escalation...a non-root user can become root | 18:12 |
| jcristau | just need a browser arbitrary code execution bug to make it remote | 18:13 |
| cousin_luigi | mdeslaur: Yes, I tried the sample code snippet. | 18:13 |
| cousin_luigi | jcristau: And would you consider such a possibility to be remote? | 18:14 |
| mdeslaur | jcristau: sure, but if you have a browser arbitrary code execution bug, it doesn't need the nvidia bug to become root...it just needs to be patient :) | 18:14 |
| jcristau | mdeslaur: true | 18:14 |
| cousin_luigi | Am I being paranoid for using nouveau because of it then? | 18:14 |
| jcristau | cousin_luigi: there's some of those every month or so | 18:14 |
| mdeslaur | cousin_luigi: are there other users on your machine besides yourself? | 18:14 |
| cousin_luigi | mdeslaur: No. | 18:15 |
| mdeslaur | cousin_luigi: then yes, your are slightly paranoid :P | 18:15 |
| cousin_luigi | jcristau: oh... | 18:17 |
| cousin_luigi | jcristau: How come this one was published so widely? | 18:17 |
| mdeslaur | jcristau: hrm? some of what every month? | 18:18 |
| jcristau | code exec bugs in firefox | 18:18 |
| cousin_luigi | oh right | 18:18 |
| mdeslaur | oh, yes, in firefox sure | 18:18 |
| cousin_luigi | isn't it the official browser, still?:) | 18:19 |
| jcristau | though probably not so many with a public exploit | 18:19 |
| mdeslaur | cousin_luigi: as opposed to what? chromium that has as many? | 18:19 |
| jcristau | cousin_luigi: it's no different with other browsers | 18:19 |
| cousin_luigi | mdeslaur: Sure, I couldn't understand the tenour of your answer. | 18:20 |
| mdeslaur | oh, hehe | 18:20 |
| mdeslaur | didn't mean to imply that firefox was any different that any other browser | 18:20 |
| cousin_luigi | Any hints that nvidia will address the problem anytime soon? nouveau causes tearing for me:/ | 18:21 |
| jcristau | you should probably either stop being paranoid or get used to the tearing | 18:22 |
| cousin_luigi | The latter would probably be easier;) | 18:23 |
| cousin_luigi | Well, thanks everyone. | 18:35 |
| cousin_luigi | bbl | 18:35 |
| tjaalton | mlankhorst, bryceh: I'm sending a note about the -proposed stack to -devel/-x | 19:47 |
| bryceh | tjaalton, ok | 19:54 |
| tjaalton | bryceh: so I'll add that it'll get to quantal after some more testing and possibly some updates | 19:58 |
| tjaalton | also, not updating the obsolete drivers which are candidates for removal from the archive | 19:58 |
| bryceh | hmm, if we drop drivers in quantal I suppose we'll have to be careful about dropping them in the lts backport | 19:59 |
| tjaalton | that's automatic | 20:00 |
| tjaalton | they won't build | 20:00 |
| tjaalton | added notes on package_status.html | 20:00 |
| tjaalton | so they're really old, such that -video-all dropped for 11.10 | 20:01 |
| bryceh | ok | 20:08 |
| tjaalton | sent | 20:16 |
| mlankhorst | hey | 20:16 |
| bryceh | bbl | 20:21 |
