brycehhmm, question00:34
brycehwe have mesa 9.x in the mesa9 ppa00:35
brycehfor precise00:35
brycehcan we just do the same change to make that mesa Recommends on s2tc and have that get pulled in from precise's universe?00:35
brycehor would that ppa mesa need s2tc to be in main as well?00:36
RAOFThat'll work fine.00:36
RAOFThe main-must-be-closed-under-transitive-dependencies rule is just policy.00:36
brycehok, suspected so00:39
brycehRAOF, so if the user has only main enabled, and installs this ppa, they'll get prompted to enable universe or some such automatically?00:39
RAOFHm. No, they won't.00:40
RAOFHow many people don't have universe enabled? It's been enabled by default for a while, right?00:40
brycehI suppose we could just stick s2tc into the ppa00:40
RAOFThat would also work.00:40
brycehno clue00:40
brycehok anyway, fixable problem.00:42
tjaaltoni guess torchlight needs s2tc, resolution got changed to 720x400 but the game didn't start04:03
tjaaltonon ivb04:03
tjaaltonnope, still crashes04:09
* bryceh eod's04:14
tjaaltonRAOF: so, are we getting a newer ati snapshot? this would probably be the last time to decide :)06:21
RAOFWe should.06:21
RAOFWe'll need an extra Xserver patch to prevent my laptop from crashing on startup, though :)06:22
tjaaltonheh06:22
tjaaltonfor hybrid?06:22
RAOFYeah. airlied's ‘don't crash if there's a GPU with no outputs hooked up’ patch.06:23
tjaaltonok06:24
RAOFI've been happily tootling along, playing Civ V on the ATI card in this laptop.06:26
RAOFIt's worth a snapshot.06:27
tjaaltoncool06:27
tjaaltonhmm, thinking about sna again..06:28
tjaaltonwe get these gpu lockups with uxa only, and little hope in getting them fixed06:28
RAOFOh, really? Urgh.06:30
RAOFIIRC sna doesn't have the prime stuff hooked up :)06:30
tjaaltonit does06:33
tjaalton2.20.8 should have it06:33
tjaaltonneed to check..06:34
tjaaltonyes06:35
tjaaltondf68723baae71 and some fixes later on06:36
RAOFAh, cool.06:42
RAOFWould you like me to do the -ati snapshot, or shall youL?06:42
tjaaltonplease, you've at least tested it :)06:43
RAOFI guess you'd also like me to do the accompanying Xserver upload too, then :)06:48
tjaaltonheh, yeah06:48
* RAOF files the FFe06:48
tjaaltoni've been too lazy to do those06:48
tjaaltonbut since -ati is crazy it's probably best06:49
RAOF...slowly, because I have the baby.06:49
tjaaltontake your time :)06:51
mlankhorstmorning06:54
tjaaltonhow's xdc so far?06:55
tjaaltonRAOF: is bug 1043458 something related?06:55
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1043458 in xorg-server (Ubuntu) "Xorg crashed with SIGABRT in SetCompatOutput()" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/104345806:55
tjaaltonintel/ati hybrid06:55
RAOFYes; that's what needs fixing06:56
RAOFDid I submit that?06:57
tjaaltonno, I just see some dupes06:57
RAOFOh! Modesetting!06:58
RAOFYou so crazy06:58
tjaaltonoh, indeed07:04
tjaaltonfive dupes now07:04
RAOFThat's -ati bailing out because the GPU doesn't have any outputs, then modesetting helpfully saying "I can drive that!", and running into the X server bug :)07:06
tjaaltonhow helpful :)07:07
tjaaltonRAOF: I can push the fixes to xserver for you unless you've started already09:15
mlankhorstwow, can't remember my gpg key passphrase, sigh!09:15
jcristauwhat did you drink last night? :)09:16
mlankhorstI blame not being at home and not consciously remembering my password09:16
tjaaltonphoronix beer, obviously09:17
mlankhorsthm, seems mesa is broken in my ppa09:36
tjaaltonRAOF: I'm adding the patch for dynamic gpu poweroff too, would be fun to test how that works11:31
tjaaltonalso, having numbers in these patches is silly11:32
ricotztjaalton, how did you got this funky patch? ;) http://launchpadlibrarian.net/116696132/mesa_9.0~git20120917.7cfd42ce-0ubuntu2_9.0~git20120917.7cfd42ce-0ubuntu3.diff.gz11:43
tjaaltonwth?11:43
tjaaltonsigh11:44
ricotzis contains quite some xml/html stuff11:44
ricotzit might still apply though11:44
tjaaltonoh it applies and builds11:44
tjaaltonjust looks ugly11:45
tjaaltonoh yes, used the link, should've opened it and select plain11:47
tjaaltonand pushed git too, can reset the clock back :)11:48
tjaaltonhad a gpu hang on my ivb, everything looks otherwise fine but fonts in t-bird are funky11:51
mlankhorstcan someone upload mesa again to the q backports ppa?12:24
tjaaltonwhat's wrong there?12:26
mlankhorsti was missing llvm-3.1 and recent enough wayland to build it :-)12:26
tjaaltonok12:26
mlankhorstif it rejects bump version number to ppa4.112:27
tjaaltondon't have the script to mangle it ;)12:27
mlankhorstupdate xorg-pkg-tools12:27
mlankhorstgo to mesa directory and run xorg-pkg-tools/lts-pkg-rename12:27
tjaaltoni should probably have that checked out12:27
mlankhorstyeah need it updated :-)12:27
tjaaltonwhat's the lp repo?12:29
mlankhorstppa:ubuntu-x-swat/q-lts-backport12:30
tjaaltonno for the tools12:30
tjaaltoncan't find them12:30
tjaaltonhere12:30
mlankhorstit's in edgers12:30
mlankhorsthttps://code.launchpad.net/~xorg-edgers/xorg-server/xorg-pkg-tools12:31
tjaaltonreally?12:31
mlankhorsthave you updated it?12:31
tjaaltonsounds like the wrong place for it12:31
tjaaltonno12:31
tjaaltonI don't have it at all on this machine12:31
mlankhorstjust check out that branch and it's in there12:32
tjaaltonuploading12:37
mlankhorstthanks :)12:38
mlankhorstseems I lost connection to my machien at home12:39
mlankhorstcan you do xorg-server 1.13 too to pick up that autobind patch?12:41
tjaaltonjust uploaded more hybrid goodies12:43
mlankhorstah k12:45
tjaaltonso you got those as well12:46
tjaaltonuploaded12:46
mlankhorstperfect, less chance of things exploding tomorrow then12:47
tjaaltonoh right :)12:47
tjaaltonhow has it been so far?12:47
mlankhorstgood, met all the people I've been collaborating with except airlied12:48
tjaaltonhe's not there?12:48
mlankhorstsadly not :(12:48
tjaaltonok12:49
mlankhorsthm looks like the control files are generated wrongly14:31
tjaaltonboth?14:32
mlankhorstyeah it was before but I didn't notice it yet14:32
tjaaltonwhat's wrong there?14:32
mlankhorstit handles conflicts/replaces/provides wrongly when it's all on 1 line, it seems14:33
tjaaltonright14:34
mlankhorstI'll fix it next week, guess it's better to butcher my local install for now14:49

MestreLionIs there any way to override the EDID of a given display?16:34
bjsniderthat's a strange thing to want to do unless the chip is not working16:39
MestreLionbjsnider: it was poorly programmed... 16:40
MestreLionit says 50Hz is the prefered for all reasolutions16:40
jwiMestreLion: Documentation/EDID/* in a kernel tree16:41
bjsnidermodelines in xorg.conf might work16:41
MestreLionso whenever I go to/back from fullscreen, it goes back to 50Hz, and I have to use Catalyst to put it back to 60Hz16:41
bjsniderthe nvidia blob lets you use an external edid file16:41
MestreLionbjsnider: but I need to *remove* the modelines, not include them... how?16:42
bjsnideryeah but why not just include the correct modelines?16:42
MestreLionthe correct modelines are there... they are just not the default16:43
MestreLionand the default is used in all games when switching to and from fullscreen16:43
MestreLionvery few apps allow me to set the frequency... most only deal with resolution... and TV goes to 50Hz16:43
