darkxstjbicha, are you planning to roll another iso once all the bug fixes land, or just wait for beta2 milestone?02:55
darkxst_all_, as in gdm, ubiquity and vmwgfx02:56
jbichadarkxst: I'm not sure, but there were quite a few bugs with the original Alpha03:12
jbichahow about you let us know what bugs you're interested in waiting for?03:12
jbichayou can use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/ReleaseNotes/1210Alpha2 as a tracker page03:26
jbichadid the vmgfx bug get fixed in tonight's kernel update?03:34
darkxstjbicha, its in 3.5.0-14.1503:42
darkxstdon't know if its hit the repo's yet though03:43
darkxstanyway I think you have all the bugs I was thinking of covered on that page under fixed: (I just added vmwgfx)03:44
jbichait didn't seem to help VirtualBox03:46
darkxstvirtualbox hasnt been committed03:46
darkxstthere driver is in a seperate package03:46
darkxstvirtualbox-guest-dkms03:46
darkxst(unless you have installed guest additions via virtualbox, then you get upstream package)03:47
darkxstmy patch in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1039157/comments/3303:48
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1039157 in linux (Ubuntu Precise) "vmwgfx kernel module not loaded by default" [Undecided,In progress]03:48
darkxstdoes fix virtualbox module loading03:48
jbichahave you considered submitting the virtualbox patch to Debian?03:52
darkxstno, but I probably should!03:54
jbichayeah, we're mostly in sync with Debian for virtualbox03:54
darkxstagainst wheezy?03:55
jbichawell wheezy uses linux 3.2 so maybe it's not affected?03:56
jbichaagainst unstable is fine03:57
darkxstactually I think it has to do with Xorg 1.1303:57
darkxstnot the kernel version03:57
darkxstand debian doesnt have xorg 1.1303:58
darkxstit appears that previously X would load the drm drivers, if they weren't already loaded04:03
jbichahmm, I just tried the Fedora 18 nightly, it looks like it's still on GNOME 3.5.504:05
jbichathere is a separate updates repo (kinda like -proposed) that 3.5.91 in it, but that still surprises me04:06
darkxstwell f18 is well behind schedule!04:09
darkxstthey basically bump the release date back a week, every meeting04:10
jbichait's a striking contrast to Ubuntu which never postpones releases04:14
darkxstbut ubuntu does release regardless of bugs04:15
jbichahave you tried qemu/kvm? I'm getting fallback mode but the Fedora 18 disk worked for shell mode04:17
darkxstf18 uses llvmpipe04:17
darkxst(software rendering)04:17
darkxstI don't know why it doesnt work on ubuntu04:18
darkxstand no havent tried qemu/kvm, but it doesnt have any 3D accel support04:19
darkxstalthough tried boxes, and didnt get very far04:19
jbichaboxes was totally broken for me too04:19
darkxstI can't even get to booting the image!04:20
jbichayeah04:20
jbichamaybe it's the custom qemu that Ubuntu uses04:20
jbichaand that none of the Boxes developers use Ubuntu04:20
darkxstpossibly04:21
darkxsthmm reportbug doesnt work so well, when postfix is broken!04:22
darkxstlooks like fedora have some custom patches to make it work04:47
darkxst(gnome-shell under llvmpipe)04:47
darkxstjbicha, have reported virtualbox drm issue against debian05:14
darkxsthttp://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=68699405:16
ubot5Debian bug 686994 in virtualbox-guest-dkms "virtualbox-guest-dkms: virtualbox drm driver fails to auto-load" [Normal,Open]05:16

darkxstjbicha, gdm seems to work too!14:03
smartboyhwYou said you want a QA Team?14:03
darkxstjbicha, it is alteast as fast as unity, if not faster. full gnome-shell experience with no 3D driver14:13
darkxstalthough I suspect it may struggle on a single core CPU's14:14
smartboyhwjbicha: I can help in the QA Team for sure:)14:14
smartboyhwjbicha: You listening? I wanna help15:14
jbichadarkxst: do you know if llvmpipe is blacklisted in Unity too or does Unity just ignore that gnome-session blacklist?23:38
darkxstjbicha, not entirely sure, but it looks like unity does not use gnome-session23:44
jbichaok, I'll ask robert_ancell23:45
darkxstactually maybe it does use gnome-session, but doesnt do a hardware check like the gnome sessions23:52
