mlankhorst | RAOF: bug bug llvm-3.1 bug :P | 10:34 |
---|---|---|
mlankhorst | also created a dummy xserver-xorg-lts-precise package, which does nothing except depend on xserver-xorg and recommend everything from the unrenamed stack.. | 10:52 |
bjsnider | when nvidia decides the 310 blob is stable, is there going to be a situation where the last 304 becomes a "legacy" type thing and nvidia-current becomes the 310 and beyond? | 16:36 |
bjsnider | otherwise geforce 5, 6, and 7 users will be left with the terrible, terrible, nouveau | 16:37 |
bryce | bjsnider, yeah I think they plan to keep 304 going with abi updates for a good while | 17:14 |
bjsnider | bryce, so there should be an nvidia-304 package int he near future | 18:52 |
bjsnider | just like nvidia-173 and nvidia-96 and whatnot | 18:52 |
bjsnider | otherwise we'll have to hold back the 310 blob | 18:53 |
bjsnider | unfortunately there are a lot of people still using that old geforce 6k/7k junk | 18:53 |
Dandel | bjsnider: i have a 7k geforce card :) | 18:54 |
Dandel | and even by that timeframe it was junk... 7300gs lol. | 18:55 |
bjsnider | is it an agp card? | 18:55 |
Dandel | pcie | 18:55 |
bjsnider | otherwise you can easily replace it | 18:55 |
bjsnider | oh, get a gf 520 or something | 18:55 |
Dandel | it's gathering dust already. | 18:55 |
Dandel | i have a gt545 | 18:55 |
bjsnider | gt 520 i mean | 18:55 |
bjsnider | there you go | 18:55 |
bjsnider | that's good stuff | 18:56 |
Dandel | i have a good mix of video cards... I just don't have a lot of choices for cpu ( mainly amd, and only intel i have is older/slow ) | 18:56 |
bjsnider | well, it probably has a fan, which i don't dig too much, but otherwise it's fine | 18:56 |
bryce | bjsnider, yes, we'll need an nvidia-304 at some point. -173 is going to go away, and -96 is already no longer updated. | 19:02 |
Dandel | ricotz: quick update on the latest piglit stuff... there's a patch on the way to fix the egl builder | 19:05 |

tavoe_ | can someone explain to me what ubuntu-x is? I think it may be relevent to my interests, but I can't find a good description | 19:33 |
Dandel | tavoe_: ubuntu-x is mainly related to the core of the graphical interface normally used on ubuntu. without Xorg/X11 you will not have gnome/kde/xfce/etc. | 19:37 |
ricotz | Dandel, yeah this will do http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/piglit/2012-November/003910.html | 19:38 |
tavoe_ | ubuntu-x isn't actually xorg, though, right? Like, that's rolled into the os, its not something I would download later? | 19:39 |
tavoe_ | I probably sound like an idiot | 19:39 |
bryce | tavoe_, the ubuntu-x team is the group of people from the community (and canonical) who do packaging and bug work for the X.org packages included in Ubuntu. | 19:39 |
tavoe_ | Ah. Got it. That makes sense. | 19:40 |
dupondje | any big changes in Optimus support yet since 12.10 ? | 20:18 |
mlankhorst | not yet | 20:42 |
dupondje | nvidia-experimental-310 is broken? I'm unable to start Gnome/Unity after the install | 21:45 |
dupondje | extension: "GLX" missing for display :0 | 21:45 |
bjsnider | dupondje, what else does the log say? | 21:48 |
dupondje | glXQueryExtensionString is NULL for screen ° | 21:51 |
dupondje | 0 | 21:51 |
dupondje | I see cursor etc, but compiz not starting | 21:51 |
bjsnider | anything like bug 1054257 | 21:57 |
bjsnider | https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/1054257 | 21:58 |
dupondje | yea seems so | 21:59 |
bryce | although that one's for fglrx | 22:09 |
bryce | OTOH even that one appears to be actually due to compiz. | 22:11 |
dupondje | xorg-edgers package solved it it seems :) | 22:13 |
Dandel | dupondje: xorg edgers would probably solve it anyways... removes fglrx and places radeon driver instead for any card less than the radeon hd5000 cards. | 22:26 |
dupondje | Dandel: i'm on nvidia :) | 22:27 |
Dandel | i see... it was just an idea | 22:41 |
