Sarvattthis packaging is so hacky and just a workaround to not make them not download git and build it every time, needs a lot of review and cleanup (man pages also) if its ever going in debian https://code.launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/piglit/debian-packaging00:31
Prf_JakobSarvatt: Which mesa version are you guys going to use?00:47
Sarvatt8.1.x00:48
Sarvattin 12.10, and 12.04.200:48
Prf_Jakobok00:48
Prf_Jakobok00:48
Sarvatttheres a nasty bug in core mesa breaking unity on every gpu that may actually be a unity issue though, cant update till we figure that out which hopefully will happen before feature freeze so we can get 8.100:54
Sarvattoh feature freeze is 3 weeks away, i guess there will be paperwork involved to upload it anyway00:55
Prf_JakobOk01:05
Prf_JakobI should clean up the wayland related patches then.01:05
tjaaltondebfx: hey, do you know if virtualbox will support the video abi of 1.13 anytime soon? looks like 4.2 beta doesn't05:59
mlankhorsttjaalton: speaking of that, which one are still missing for 1.13?08:37
tjaaltonmlankhorst: -ivtv, the arm ones and vboxdrv08:41
mlankhorstah k08:41
mlankhorstspeaking of which, I need a arm staging tree..08:42
mlankhorsttjaalton: can you upload rc4? :)08:43
tjaaltonI already did?08:44
tjaaltondidn't push git though..08:44
tjaaltondone08:44
tjaaltonhow easy it is to miss that phase..08:45
tjaaltoni blame multitasking08:45
debfxtjaalton: I asked the upstream developer on friday. he said he'll look into it but as I understand supporting RCs isn't a priority for them.08:46
tjaaltondebfx: ok. we might be able to patch it to build in the meantime08:47
tjaaltonsigh, do we really need -glamo08:49
tjaaltonnot going to touch it08:51
tjaaltonbug 103479308:53
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1034793 in xserver-xorg-video-voodoo (Ubuntu) "Please remove obsolete video drivers from the archive" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/103479308:53
mlankhorsttjaalton: indeed :P09:52
mlankhorsttjaalton: yeah seeing how often that seems to happen I wonder if it should be part of the tagging phase10:12
tjaaltonmlankhorst: what should?10:20
tjaaltonoh generating the changelog?10:21
mlankhorstwell just that you can't upload to ubuntu without uploading the git parts first :)10:22
tjaaltonah10:23
mlankhorstin the same way xorg-util-modular/release.sh is supposed to work10:23
tjaaltonwell, xorg-server didn't get the changelog mangling commit in it for .902, so the changelog that git had looks weird since the changes were done to .902-110:26
tjaaltonso, always create a new changelog entry for -0ubuntu1 or such, if debian is unreleased10:27
tjaaltonneed to use dch -n for that, i guess10:27
tjaaltonand then edit to make it not be a nmu10:28
tjaaltonbut yeah, whatever tools there are to force git push would be fine :)10:30
tjaaltondunno if it's feasible though10:31
tjaaltonsince we don't do tags10:31
tjaaltonand you can forget that too10:31
tjaaltonso should it be pushed after building a source package? that wouldn't work either, if you're just testing stuff10:32
tjaaltonmlankhorst: ah, so nothing was lost, just that instead of bdaab9165aac it's preferred to just create a new changelog entry for ubuntu10:39
tjaaltonin similar cases10:39
tjaaltonand I use dch -n for that, don't know of a better tool10:39
tjaaltonbut I've added the git trick to my config. looks like I had .gitattributes already but nothing to call it..10:40
mlankhorst:)12:07
shadeslayeris there a know bug about X taking up all your memory after about 3-4 hours ?15:16
mlankhorstwith nouveau?15:18
tjaaltonshadeslayer: it's likely some app, not x15:22
shadeslayerwell ... it mentions lightdm and X in the same line15:22
shadeslayer( the process )15:22
tjaalton'it'?15:27
shadeslayertjaalton: htop15:44
shadeslayerand yeah, it's definitely leaking memory, X is now using 25% of my RAM15:45
tjaaltoncheck xrestop15:45
shadeslayertjaalton: http://i.imgur.com/XF9pi.png15:46
tjaaltonwhich driver?15:46
shadeslayerwell .. I have 2 cards, and I think it's using the discrete ati card15:47
tjaaltonfglrx?15:47
shadeslayernope15:47
shadeslayerdon't have fglrx15:47
tjaaltonk15:47
shadeslayerlsmod says radeon15:47
shadeslayerhmm ... xrestop shows kwin at the top15:48
tjaaltonusing how much pixmem15:48
shadeslayer1568614K15:48
shadeslayerso about 1.5G's :|15:48
tjaaltonthere you go15:49
tjaaltonit might still be a leaking driver, dunno15:49
shadeslayerhmm15:52
shadeslayertjaalton: so restarting kwin takes down kwin's mem consumption, but X still consumes the same amount of memory16:12
tjaaltoncould be the driver then16:14
* shadeslayer ponders filing a bug16:14
shadeslayertjaalton: anything that I can do to debug it a bit?16:14
shadeslayeroh ... I recently modified my xorg.conf a bit16:14
shadeslayermaybe that's what's causing it16:15
tjaaltonwhich release is this?16:15
shadeslayerquantal16:15
tjaaltonhmm16:15
tjaalton-proposed has a newer xserver, but I think it's either mesa or the kernel that's buggy, not the xserver16:15
shadeslayerhmm .. lets try and see if that fixes anything16:18
tjaaltonnice, xserver crash when switching sessions18:45
tjaaltonapport didn't catch it18:45
tjaaltonduh18:45
mlankhorsttjaalton: raof dropped the rethrow signals patch but it requires starting xorg-server with core :)19:03
tjaaltonmlankhorst: yeah, i'll hack it locally to catch the crash21:06
