| alkisg | Hi, is support for xvideo on s3virge supposed to be broken in 12.04, or could it be some bad configuration? It worked fine in 10.04... | 09:43 |

| alkisg | Xorg.7.log: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1183234/ | 09:45 |
| alkisg | [ 52.898] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module s3virge | 09:46 |
| alkisg | Do I need to manually install xserver-xorg-video-s3virge? | 09:48 |

| alkisg | Installing xserver-xorg-video-s3virge allowed my card to have xvideo. Any reason why it's not preinstalled like it was in previous versions? | 11:35 |
| tjaalton | alkisg: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-x/2011-May/001076.html | 11:38 |
| jcristau | something along the lines of: because it has about 5 users, no maintainer, and so is no longer in ubuntu main | 11:38 |
| tjaalton | -s3virge is now gone from the archive too, starting from quantal | 11:38 |
| alkisg | Thank you guys, so I _can_ put it in the Recommends: of my "greek-schools-installer" package (LTS only) without breaking anything | 12:05 |
| alkisg | We have more than 1000 of s3virge cards here, not sure about exact numbers though | 12:05 |
| tjaalton | stubborn machines ;) | 12:07 |
| alkisg | So far we had 10 year old PCs in schools... now with the crisis we're going to have 20 year old PCs in the future :D | 12:07 |
| tjaalton | :) | 12:08 |
| seb128 | tjaalton, could you look at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/1032251 ? | 13:51 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1032251 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "EOG hangs in Ubuntu 12.04" [Undecided,New] | 13:51 |
| seb128 | tjaalton, is that a known issue? | 13:51 |
| tjaalton | seb128: 855GM, support for those older chips can be somewhat lacking, dunno if it's known elsewhere or not | 13:54 |
| seb128 | tjaalton, ok, not something we should care too much about then? (I hate all those "eog freezes xorg" bugs, it's not cool when the image viewer can take your session down) | 13:56 |
| tjaalton | seb128: well, would be nice to know if it's fixed/broken with a more recent stack | 13:58 |
| seb128 | tjaalton, can you ask on the bug? :-) | 13:58 |
| tjaalton | sure | 13:59 |
| apw | tjaalton, i am seeing some reports of validation failures in nouveau, suspicious its mesa passing in junk ... ring any bells ? | 14:22 |
| tjaalton | apw: huh, no.. wouldn't surprise me though, we've had plenty of issues since nvidia users were forced to use nouveau on quantal, before the blob worked | 14:23 |
| apw | so we are not recommending nouveau on quantal | 14:24 |
| tjaalton | but I've had no time to look at those bugs in more detail. I'm preparing a newer mesa snapshot atm | 14:24 |
| apw | tjaalton, sounds good with luck it will fix my issues and theirs :) | 14:24 |
| tjaalton | it probably has more issues on certain hw generations, my gf8600 was quite happy with it | 14:24 |
| tjaalton | apw: any bug reports out there? | 14:26 |
| apw | bug 1045077 is the one i was asked about | 14:27 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1045077 in linux (Ubuntu) "[drm] nouveau 0000:00:05.0: fail ttm_validate" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1045077 | 14:27 |
| tjaalton | ugh, thanks | 14:32 |
| tjaalton | libdrm 2.4.39 uploaded, prereq for the newer mesa snapshot.. | 14:43 |
