| llstarks|spare | i'll try to do an nvidia randr 1.4 write up over the next day or so | 00:01 |
|---|---|---|
| llstarks|spare | works beautifully despite x limitations that cause tearing | 00:01 |
| === llstarks is now known as erappleman | ||
| tjaalton | llstarks|spare: so xserver needs a rebuild | 04:27 |
| erappleman | i'm not sure. libudev0 was needed to even pull in -core. input-all and video-all also got removed with most drivers | 04:30 |
| erappleman | sorry again about nick confusion | 04:31 |
| tjaalton | heh | 04:31 |
| tjaalton | why do you need the new version again? | 04:32 |
| erappleman | aaronp said that 1.13.y was needed for nvidia to use randr 1.4 properly. turns out it was actually 1.14.0 | 04:32 |
| erappleman | it took us more than a week to figure that out | 04:32 |
| tjaalton | you tested with 1.13? | 04:33 |
| erappleman | yes | 04:33 |
| tjaalton | hm | 04:33 |
| erappleman | the main problem was nvidia telling us to use .xinitrc instead of .xsessionrc | 04:33 |
| tjaalton | xserver version doesn't change that :) | 04:35 |
| erappleman | true, but nvidia's instructions were bs: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/539322/linux/blank-screen-with-319-12-on-optimus-laptop/ | 04:37 |
| tjaalton | so what issues you had with 1.13? | 04:40 |
| erappleman | the x session wouldn't display anything on the backlit screen, same result for everyone who tried to get optimus offloading working | 04:44 |
| erappleman | 1.14 works, can't point to any particular commit | 04:44 |
| tjaalton | ok | 04:45 |
| tjaalton | how's powersaving working, or is nvidia enabled all the time? | 04:46 |
| erappleman | nvidia is enabled the whole time. you display with modesetting or intel. there's no vsync due to x limitations. | 04:46 |
| erappleman | powermizer does work | 04:46 |

| mlankhorst | morning | 06:37 |
| tjaalton | erappleman: I have no problem trying to upgrade to the staging ppa | 06:43 |
| erappleman | unless i'm screwing up fresh installs, there's an abi disagreement | 06:44 |
| mlankhorst | tjaalton: libudev0 is no longer available | 07:03 |
| mlankhorst | and compiz no longer installs | 07:03 |
| tjaalton | why does it not complain here then | 07:09 |
| mlankhorst | because you have the old stuff still installed, I suppose | 07:10 |
| tjaalton | libudev0 yes | 07:12 |
| tjaalton | huh, intel-gpu-tools depends on it | 07:13 |
| tjaalton | best to rebuild it then | 07:13 |
| mlankhorst | I'm tossing a complete lts-raring rebuild in my ppa, for precise | 07:15 |
| mlankhorst | yeah xserver needs a rebuild too | 07:22 |
| tjaalton | and an upgrade to 1.14.1 | 07:22 |
| tjaalton | oh I had a snapshot of i-g-t that depended on libudev0 | 07:25 |
| tjaalton | no need to rebuild it | 07:25 |
| tjaalton | updated inputproto too | 07:46 |
| mlankhorst | can you pull the patches from 1.13.3 too? | 07:47 |
| tjaalton | ah | 07:47 |
| tjaalton | yeah | 07:47 |
| tjaalton | mlankhorst: could you check xorg-server ubuntu+1 branch that it looks sane | 08:17 |
| tjaalton | patches should match what is needed, and they apply | 08:18 |
| mlankhorst | looks good | 08:37 |
| tjaalton | thanks, I'll upload it | 08:44 |
| tjaalton | to the ppa | 08:44 |
| mlankhorst | I'd prefer it if the drm patch was rebased, but meh :P | 08:48 |
| tjaalton | why would we need it still? | 08:53 |
| mlankhorst | hm I guess we don't if the fix is backported to precise too | 08:55 |
| tjaalton | it will | 09:00 |
| tjaalton | fighting to get it in raring first.. | 09:00 |
| tjaalton | oh it was evdev that still needed a rebuild against libudev1 | 10:32 |
| mlankhorst | tjaalton: heh we should be able to land lts-raring as soon as we want to, at least.. | 10:56 |
| mlankhorst | Sarvatt: I need your magic abilities, how do I fix plymouthd: ply-terminal.c:630: ply_terminal_set_mode: Assertion `terminal != ((void *)0)' failed. ? | 11:23 |
