mdeslauris anyone here using an acer iconia W500 tablet with precise?00:21
mdeslaurtouch events seem to get all messed up after a couple of minutes00:22
brycehmdeslaur, don't think anyone here has that hw.  certainly haven't heard of that problem so far, although I haven't been perusing the precise input bugs00:35
brycehmdeslaur, not aware of any recent sru's for X's input bits, possibly kernel got some update?  Tried booting an earlier kernel?00:36
mdeslaurhrm, using mtview...when the problem occurs, mtview is drawing events two inches away from my finger00:36
mdeslaurthem I switch windows and back, then it's back to being fine for a bit00:36
mdeslaurbryceh: I tried with precise release, precise with updates, and precise with proposed00:37
brycehmdeslaur, I do have a fujitsu touch screen, which tjaalton tinkered with last uds, which  had a problem like that, except it was like that all the time00:37
brycehand iirc it was only the x coord that was off00:38
mdeslaurhrm, i bought this one because everyone was saying oneiric worked great on it...so I guess I'll try oneiric00:38
brycehmdeslaur, ok so all three of those versions have the same problem?00:38
mdeslaurbryceh: yeah, precise is a no-go00:39
brycehprecise has the franken-xserver as far as the input stack goes.  that's been at the heart of a variety of input bugs in precise00:39
brycehmdeslaur, alright so booting different kernels probably won't do anything.  xorg-edgers *might* be worth testing.  But I'd check with tjaalton since he might know something relevant.00:42
mdeslaurbryceh: cool, thanks00:42
* mdeslaur tries xorg-edgers crack00:47
bjsniderthis makes mdeslaur a crackhead00:49
bjsniderwould you like treatment?00:50
mdeslaurbjsnider: this free sample is great!00:50
mdeslaur:)00:50
mdeslaurlol00:55
mdeslaurxorg-edgers broke unity00:55
mdeslaur\o/00:55
bjsnider"broke' is such a strong word.01:04
bjsniderit is functionally challenged01:04
mdeslaurhehe01:05
mdeslaurunity looks all nice and clean without any icons being drawn in it01:05
bjsniderthat's a glass-half-full approach01:12
tjaaltonmdeslaur: that's thd mesa blocker bug for us.. anyway, you could've tried the backport stack ppa03:52
Sarvattmdeslaur: if you need to revert and are on amd64, dpkg -l | egrep 'sarvatt|ricotz|edgers' will give you a full package list, you just remove the ppa sources, apt-get update then add every package returned there to a sudo apt-get install package1/precise package2/precise package3/precise line, just ignore libdrm-nouveau204:11
tjaaltonuploaded  mesa_8.0.3+8.0.2-0ubuntu3.204:27

* mlankhorst slaps Sarvatt 06:57
tjaaltonwhat did he do this time?-)06:58
mlankhorsthe knows what he's forgotten :D06:59
tjaaltoni'll package -omap, obsoletes -omapfb08:24
tjaaltonoh it's packaged already08:25
tjaaltonand git messed up08:39
tjaaltonuploaded anyway08:44
tjaaltondidn't push the branch, it's maintained in collab-maint but wanted to ask the maintainer first08:44
tjaaltonmeh, -msm08:51
tjaaltonno upstream changes since 201008:51
tjaaltonwhy do we still carry it?08:51
tjaaltonogra_: do you know where xf86-video-msm is used?08:51
tjaaltonoh htc dream / nexus one08:52
tjaaltoni say purge it08:52
tjaaltonvbox next, and after that the stack can move08:54
tjaaltondebfx: i'm looking into patching vbox to build against 1.13..08:54
=== seb128_ is now known as seb128
mlankhorsttjaalton: if you want I can do that, it needs 2 things, 1. Disable XAA, 2. compat header09:57
tjaaltonmlankhorst: ok, go ahead :)09:58
tjaaltoni started but still trying to figure out the way it's built09:59
mlankhorstwho cares, debuild it.. :p10:01
tjaaltoni'll just look at a build log :)10:06
mlankhorstdebuild -nc >:)10:12
mlankhorstbut I don't see vboxmouse being built so I guess it uses another way :)10:27
mlankhorstoh great it's too dumb to even have xaa, makes things easier though :)10:34
tjaaltonyeah10:34
tjaaltoncompat-api.h is identical on every driver?10:37
mlankhorstno10:37
mlankhorstbut the idea is the same10:38
tjaaltonok10:38
mlankhorstthe only difference is in those #ifdef XF86_SCRN_INTERFACE, I think things are changed there as needed by the specific driver :)10:42

mdeslaurtjaalton: hi, so xorg-edgers didn't solve my touch issue anyway...cnd said it's probably a bug in the gesture stack they're aware of11:33
tjaaltonmdeslaur: ok, good to know11:35
tjaaltonsigh11:58
tjaaltonmlankhor1t: wanna fix -msm too?-)11:58
mlankhor1taw was just done with virtualbox :p12:03
tjaaltontrying to update sbuild so it supports cross-building12:04
mlankhor1tseems virtualbox builds now12:05
tjaaltoncool12:05
mlankhor1tdo you have ubuntu in a vm to test with?12:05
tjaaltonnot vbox12:05
tjaaltonhm, could install it on the quantal machine12:06
tjaaltonor maybe not12:06
mlankhor1tI'll see if I can make it do the netboot thing12:06
tjaaltonif the dependencies get right, just ship it12:06
mlankhor1tbecause netboot12:07
mlankhor1tnah I want to send it in if it's not too much trouble12:07
tjaaltonlet debfx handle that part :)12:09
mlankhor1theh sure12:09
tjaaltonin the meantime we can upload it to proposed12:10
mlankhor1tI'm just rechecking if it builds on old one first12:11
mlankhor1tif so I'll just make it a dumb quilt patch12:11
* mlankhor1t assumes building == working12:12

mlankhorsttjaalton: where's msm then?12:13
mlankhorstok seems to work until it complains I overrode my opengl, ship it.. http://people.canonical.com/~mlankhorst/vbox-x1.13.patch12:16
tjaaltondget https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/primary/+files/xf86-video-msm_1.0.1%2Bgit20100122.5f7df591-1ubuntu5.dsc12:16
tjaaltonthanks12:16
mlankhorsttjaalton: yeah but it is really a 2010 snapshot? :o12:17
tjaaltonyup12:17
tjaaltonno new upstream versions12:17
tjaaltonhave fun with it kthxbye :)12:17
mlankhorstcan we drop it and never speak of it again?12:17
mlankhorst:o12:17
tjaaltonwell, you can probably wait until we've got confirmation that it's still used12:18
mlankhorstyay12:21
mlankhorstso ship it to quantal? >:D12:22
tjaaltonmlankhorst: can't VBOXDRIScreenInit use SCREEN_INIT_ARGS_DECL as well?12:22
mlankhorstprobably but this works so why bother12:23
tjaaltonheh12:23
tjaaltonyeah12:23
mlankhorstthat function converts it anyhow12:23
mlankhorstwould also mean defining SCREEN_INIT_ARGS to pass it along12:24
mlankhorstit's mostly meant to make xorg<->driver api easier, and this is driver internal :)12:24
tjaaltoni mean so that it builds against earlier abi too, ie. upstream could take it as-is12:25
tjaaltonbut oh well, they can sort it out12:25
mlankhorstit will build against earlier api now..12:25
mlankhorstI've built against both for testing12:25
tjaaltonah, ok12:26
mlankhorstVBOXDRIScreenInit is no longer SCREEN_INIT_ARGS_DECL with either X api, it doesn't pass the pScrn or index on newer :)12:28
tjaaltongotcha12:29
mlankhorstbut geode was a bigger mess, at least this one followed the standard api making it easy :)12:29
tjaaltontest building before upload12:33
tjaaltonyep, ship it12:40
tjaaltonmmh, -ivtvdev is hopefully the last one that remains12:42
mlankhorstskip it12:42
mlankhorstit's part of universe right?12:43
tjaaltonmultiverse12:43
tjaaltoneven worse :)12:43
tjaaltonnot much happened there either since 201012:44
tjaaltonif anything12:44
tjaaltonso yeah skip it12:44
tjaaltonadded it to the purge list12:45
tjaalton14 drivers there now12:45
mlankhorst:-)12:46
tjaaltonafk for a bit ->12:46
mlankhorstI'm going to need that list at one point! :D12:47
tjaaltonmlankhorst: bug 1034793 :)13:07

ricotzmlankhorst, tjaalton, hi :), be aware that 304.37 still seems to be broken with 1.13rc413:52
mlankhorstsigh ._.14:30
tjaaltontough14:49
mlankhorstricotz: what's broken then?14:50
ricotzmlankhorst, xorg crashes while just starting firefox or running g-s, same issue since 304.x introduced 1.13 support14:52
ricotzhttp://paste.debian.net/plain/18352714:53
ricotzhavent retraced it though since it has the same symptom14:53
ricotz(i mentioned it to aaronp)14:54
* mlankhorst tries i915 with valgrind14:58
mlankhorsthey a conditional jump depending on uninitialised bytes in vprintf..15:03
mlankhorstoh and still no synaptics debugging symbols? what went wrong there15:05
mlankhorstoh, no merge from debian-experimental which had it15:09
mlankhorsttjaalton: hey can you upload synaptics?15:12
tjaaltonmlankhorst: yup, uploaded16:04
mlankhorstthanks :)16:04
tjaaltonhmm, rejected16:05
mlankhorsto.O16:06
tjaaltondid I not push the previous changed, meh16:06
tjaaltonyup.. oh well, I'll merge with origin16:07
tjaaltonthere16:11
mlankhorstah k :)16:12
Sarvattholy crap, unity work with today's mesa checkout20:11
Sarvatt\o/\o/20:11
mlankhorstSarvatt: ship it!20:13
* mlankhorst is having some fun with wine20:14
Sarvattsomeone actually respond to the pull request?20:14
Sarvattsending one with a commit starting with [HACK] maybe wasnt a good idea :P20:15
mlankhorstSarvatt: do you think they honestly care about what I send any more?20:19
mlankhorstI was hoping to stir up some discussion but that seemed to have failed20:26
tjaaltonwhere was this?20:30
mlankhorstwine ml20:37
mlankhorstsent a pull request to their patch mailing list in the hopes of stirring up some discussion, surprised Sarvatt knows :p20:42
tjaaltonah20:43
* mlankhorst pokes Sarvatt 20:50
Sarvattmlankhorst: #nouveau scrollback :)21:21
mlankhorstah ofc21:22
mlankhorstreally frustrating though21:25
Sarvattwas surprised to see fedora was shipping it even, any idea if YokoZar is going to enable it in ubuntu?21:30
mlankhorstno idea, I've been using it for ages lol21:32
Sarvattholy crap, wine in wheezy got upgraded to 1.4.121:32
mlankhorstthe ubuntu-wine ppa has it though21:32
mlankhorstquite stable21:32
mlankhorstSarvatt: fedora ships wine modifications? not that I know of at least..21:42
Sarvatthttp://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/wine.git/tree/wine.spec21:42
Sarvattcheck out may 28th21:42
mlankhorstoh :p21:42
Sarvatthttp://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/wine.git/tree/wine-pulse-1.5.4.patch they use that, no attribution on it so no clue if its yours or the other one21:42
mlankhorstwell it is, just an old version21:43
