| mlankhorst | RAOF: not much, once you import it it's kept alive through the gem handle | 07:18 |
|---|---|---|
| mlankhorst | if it's a self import the dma-buf will die, but you don't need it in that case anyway | 07:20 |
| RAOF | mlankhorst: I suspected as much. Boo, ish. | 07:21 |
| mlankhorst | boo for sane design? | 07:22 |
| RAOF | Well, if the gem handle didn't keep it alive be a quick and simple way to revoke access to buffers ;) | 07:31 |
| RAOF | mlankhorst: Your x-x-v-nouveau upload in quantal-proposed doesn't close a bug? | 07:37 |
| mlankhorst | RAOF: it was from the previous rejected one | 07:49 |
| RAOF | mlankhorst: You should include the bug numbers of the things that it's fixing (ie: include the previous changelog). Does the regression not have a bug #? | 07:50 |
| mlankhorst | erm the previous changelog is included | 07:50 |
| mlankhorst | 1:1.0.3-0ubuntu0.1 was rejected | 07:51 |
| RAOF | But you didn't include that changelog in the changes file, which is where we extract the bugs from. | 07:51 |
| mlankhorst | ah | 07:52 |
| RAOF | So you would have wanted to do ‘debuild -v$PREVIOUS_UBUNTU_VERSION’ | 07:52 |
| RAOF | Which I think would be ‘debuild -v1:1.0.2-0ubuntu4’? | 07:52 |
| mlankhorst | ok I'll re-upload | 07:56 |
| mlankhorst | wow, someone was building nouveau on sparc, crazy | 08:01 |
| mlankhorst | oh well it's there now | 08:19 |
| alkisg | Hi, Precise 12.04, Intel 82G33/G31, google-earth complains "unsupported graphics card... need 16MB of VRAM" and it doesn't start at all. | 08:43 |
| alkisg | I've tried different combinations of the BIOS DVMT settings to no avail. Even tried setting videoram 32768 in xorg.conf, didn't do anything either. | 08:43 |
| alkisg | Is this a bug in google-earth? Is it a problem with linux not being able to handle DVMT? Will a BIOS firmware update help? Can I do anything to make google-earth work in that system? | 08:44 |
| mlankhorst | error messages lie :p | 08:45 |
| alkisg | So, a bug in google-earth? | 08:45 |
| mlankhorst | I would just check if your configuration is correct first, and look up that error message in google | 08:48 |
| alkisg | I tried both before coming here, of course | 08:48 |
| alkisg | I wonder though if this is my problem: (1) google-earth misdetects vram due to dvmt, (2) it prompts to continue and it *would work* anyway, but (3) it crashes because of this bug, and not because of the vram problem: | 08:49 |
| alkisg | http://code.google.com/p/earth-issues/issues/detail?id=1477 | 08:49 |
| alkisg | I.e. I just found out that people report that google-earth 7 crashes in linux in general... | 08:50 |
| mlankhorst | there you go then :) | 08:50 |
| alkisg | It seems weird though that only 10 people would be affected from oct 31, 2012 up to now | 08:51 |
| alkisg | And that there wouldn't be a fixed released after so many months... | 08:51 |
| * alkisg tries in another PC... | 08:52 | |
| alkisg | Nope it does work on an nvidia-based PC | 08:55 |
| * alkisg installed the ancient http://packages.medibuntu.org/pool/non-free/g/googleearth/googleearth_5.1.3533.1731-0medibuntu1_i386.deb which works fine, and calls it a day :) Thanks! | 09:08 | |
| mlankhorst | fwiw, never trust error messages with suggestions | 09:53 |
