[14:32] <stgraber> heya, just changed laptop last week and upgraded to quantal. Now trying to have the shiny new hd4000 to drive 3 monitors at once and failing quite miserably
[14:32] <stgraber> getting any two displays to work is fine, getting the third to work at the same time, not so much
[14:34] <stgraber> looking around, I found http://www.mail-archive.com/intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org/msg12877.html which may be related
[14:34] <stgraber> so far I'm trying with two 1920x1080 external monitor (one over HDMI, other over VGA) + laptop's 1366x768
[14:34] <stgraber> will receive an adapter this week to get both external monitors on DVI (mini-DP => two separate single-link DVI)
[14:35] <tjaalton> stgraber: so it only has the intel, no hybrid?
[14:35] <stgraber> right, it's a new ivy bridge laptop with an hd4000
[14:35] <stgraber> the hd4000 has 3 CRTC
[14:36] <tjaalton> yup
[14:36] <stgraber> so is supposed to be able to drive 3 screens, as long as two of them share the same clock (should be the case here, with two 1920x1080 screens)
[14:37] <tjaalton> those patches will hit 3.7 at the earliest
[14:39] <stgraber> I may try to rebuild a kernel with http://www.mail-archive.com/intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org/msg12880.html applied as it seems to match my current setup (one of the two external being on VGA, likely getting CRTC2)
[14:41] <stgraber> hopefully everything will just work once I move to DVI for both screens. TBH runing a full-hd screen over VGA is usually quite bad, so I can't think of anyone who'd stick with that setup ;)
[14:42] <tjaalton> only the first patch is in the drm queue
[14:45] <dupondje> Somebody around that could help me to solve HDMI output not working with nouveau?
[14:48] <tjaalton> dupondje: better luck with #nouveau i guess
[14:49] <bjsnider> dupondje, what card is that?
[14:51] <dupondje> Nvidia GeForce GT 540M
[14:51] <dupondje> I can get HDMI output 'working' when I manually add the device in xorg.conf
[14:51] <dupondje> the image is a bit disorted
[14:52] <dupondje> but xrandr for example shows HDMI1 disconnected
[14:52] <bjsnider> if dvi works you can use an adapter
[14:52] <bjsnider> won't carry sound though
[14:53] <dupondje> have no DVI output :)
[14:53] <dupondje> HDMI & displayport
[14:53] <bjsnider> neat
[14:54] <bjsnider> obviously you could use the blob
[14:54] <bjsnider> you don't have to use nouveau
[14:55] <dupondje> the blob can't even read the resolution of my laptop screen ... :)
[14:56] <bjsnider> which blob is this?
[14:56] <dupondje> nvidia-current in quantal
[14:57] <dupondje> must say I haven't looked into fixing the blob really :)
[14:58] <dupondje> nouveau works near to perfect, except the HDMI output which seems partly broken
[14:58] <tjaalton> try 3.6-rc
[14:58] <dupondje> I guess if xrandr can see the HDMI output connected, its working fine
[14:58] <dupondje> tjaalton: tried daily kernel already
[14:58] <tjaalton> ok
[14:58] <dupondje> as I saw alot of new nouveau stuff was in it :)
[14:59] <dupondje> http://dupondje.be/dmesg.txt => is my dmesg with drm.debug=0x4
[14:59] <dupondje> you can see it correctly finds the HDMI screen, even its supported resolutions etc
[15:01] <dupondje> [   49.248709] [drm:output_poll_execute], [CONNECTOR:17:HDMI-A-1] status updated from 1 to 1
[15:01] <dupondje> here I pulled the HDMI cable
[15:01] <dupondje> (last line)
[15:17] <dupondje> any idea's ? :)
[16:03] <tjaalton> dupondje: like I said, #nouveau would be better for such questions ;)
[16:04] <dupondje> its quite dead there :(
[16:04] <dupondje> i'll try harder :p
[16:05] <tjaalton> ah, saw that now
[16:05] <tjaalton> well, yesterday was a holiday in the US
[16:05] <tjaalton> dunno if that matters
[17:28] <seb128> tjaalton, bryce, RAOF: hey guys, xorg still has lit of items on http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/canonical-desktop-team-ubuntu-12.10-beta-1.html ... can we get them postponed, moved to beta2, closed, etc as appropriate?
[17:28] <seb128> desktop-q-xorg-general 	15 todo for beta1
[17:29] <seb128> and some still on desktop-p-libxrandr-utils and desktop-q-hybrid-graphics
[17:48] <LLStarks> there's a prime ppa now? inb4 front page of phoronix
[17:48] <tjaalton> hmm, maybe should just delete that task
[17:49] <tjaalton> no separate ppa, we have what is released
[17:49] <tjaalton> seb128: checked most of my tasks
[17:49] <LLStarks> tjaalton, if there was to be a ppa, it would need i915-uxa, nouveau, and xrandr 1.4
[17:49] <tjaalton> one remains, probably need to postpone it
[17:49] <tjaalton> quantal has xrandr 1.4
[17:49] <tjaalton> some ddx patches are missing, might make it in, dunno
[17:50] <bryce> seb128, will so do
[17:50] <seb128> tjaalton, bryce: thanks
[17:50] <LLStarks> will i915 be sna or uxa as default? i know both will be built
[17:50] <tjaalton> hmm, not sure about xrandr anymore :)
[17:51] <tjaalton> LLStarks: likely uxa
[17:51] <LLStarks> airlied's patches are just starting to land for both ddx
[17:52] <tjaalton> right, so we don't have xrandr 1.4 yet
[17:55] <tjaalton> meh, I'll decide tomorrow if the ppa is really needed or not
[17:58] <LLStarks> mesa should be ready if the 8/21 build included the DRI_PRIME cherrypick
[17:58] <LLStarks> err merge
[17:58] <LLStarks> looks like it got in
[17:59] <LLStarks> tjaalton, if you're interested in prime QA for the quantal stack (plus the patched ddx's), i'd be happy to help. very encouraging results so far.
[18:00] <tjaalton> LLStarks: ok, cool
[18:01] <tjaalton> mesa snapshot updated as of yesterday, sitting in git waiting for the beta freeze to end (and libdrm update to enter the archive..)
[18:08] <LLStarks> dri2proto, xserver, randproto, libxrandr are all landed. i'm pretty sure libdrm 2.4.38 landed with the needed changes as well.
[18:09] <LLStarks> xrandr 1.4 is needed to manually set the provider
[18:14] <LLStarks> prime with nouveau is nice though, it already outperforms bumblebee with the nvidia blob: http://pastebin.com/j1CQBsdB
[21:13] <dupondje> #nouveau seems really silent :
[21:57] <bjsnider> dupondje, that is because nouveau has no problems or bugs or missing features at all, so no one complains
[22:01] <dupondje> right :D
[22:01] <dupondje> anyway, opened a bug https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=54512 :)
[22:03] <bjsnider> don't believe that one, huh?
