bjsnider | the new nvidia blob has a new file, a daemon. i checked and it has its own install script with a procedure for sysv, upstart, or systemd, depending on what the script finds on the target system. | 01:15 |
---|---|---|
bjsnider | no idea how tseliot wants to deal with that, but that is now the latest stable driver | 01:16 |
tjaalton | bjsnider: no not released yet | 04:25 |
tjaalton | bjsnider: this is the latest 319 driver? | 04:26 |
tjaalton | a new touch fix branch up | 06:29 |
mlankhorst | RAOF_: do you still use your nexus 7? | 06:40 |
bjsnider | tjaalton, 319.17 | 14:32 |
bjsnider | they promoted it to stable | 14:40 |
tjaalton | bjsnider: right | 14:57 |
ricotz | will be in edgers in asap | 14:59 |
=== Prf_Jako1 is now known as Prf_Jakob | ||
bjsnider | ricotz, how do you intend to deal with that new daemon and the install script and whatnot? | 16:48 |
tjaalton | right, please work with tseliot on those to avoid unnecessary conflicts | 16:50 |
tseliot | bjsnider, ricotz: I'm working on it but I'm waiting for Nvidia to get back on some questions on backwards compatibility first | 16:51 |
tseliot | (as I'm packaging it separately) | 16:51 |
bjsnider | tseliot, i checked your git repo last night looking for the latest scripts, but it's still 304 and hasn't been updated for 6 months | 16:57 |
tseliot | bjsnider: maybe have a look at the different branches? | 16:58 |
tseliot | my 319 branch is not there yet, it's only local for now | 16:58 |
ricotz | bjsnider, tseliot, i don't have an optimus setup here and i can't really test these new things in this direction | 17:06 |
tseliot | ricotz: fortunately I can and I'm working on a package to make prime a little easier | 17:07 |
ricotz | tseliot, i guess it isn't much trouble when file conflicts happening | 17:07 |
ricotz | tseliot, alright :) | 17:08 |
ricotz | (i am happy to run the plain driver so far) | 17:09 |
bjsnider | tseliot, so the daemon will be a separate optional package? | 17:16 |
bjsnider | i didn't know nvidia was having so much trouble starting up fast that they felt the need to install a daemon to do it | 17:16 |
tseliot | bjsnider: yes, unless nvidia decides that each driver version needs to have its own daemon with the same version | 17:17 |
Sarvatt | bjsnider: looks like its just for cuda on a secondary card not being used as a gpu from the discription | 17:22 |
