[10:14] tseliot: Hi! is it possibl that Nvidia 319 installs differently on optimus machines, means that /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xorg/extra-modules sometimes is a link to /etc/alternatives/aso and sometimes not? [10:18] ubuntu. btw [10:18] zzippy: where did you get that package from? [10:20] tseliot: xorgedgers [10:20] zzippy: I doubt they're doing anything different from the official packages. Why do you ask? [10:21] are you experiencing any problems? [10:21] Wait a minute, I will try to explain. [10:25] A guy from our forum created a script, which makes it possible to switch from "whole desktop on nvidia" to "Desktop on Intel" using bbswitch module from bumblebee. Works great, powersaving on demand. unfortunately /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xorg/extra-modules, which has to be deleted to make this work, on some machines not is just a link to /etc/alternatives/aso [10:40] zzippy: I'm not familiar with the /etc/alternatives/aso file [10:40] ricotz: ^^ [10:44] tseliot: /etc/alternatives/x86_64-linux-gnu_xorg_extra_modules contains libglx.so (link), libglx.so.319.17 and nvidia_drv.so [10:45] zzippy: I know what /etc/alternatives/x86_64-linux-gnu_xorg_extra_modules is (I worked on it) but I don't know about that link you were talking about [10:51] tseliot: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/xorg/extra-modules on some machines links to /etc/alternatives/x86_64-linux-gnu_xorg_extra_modules, but sometimes not. [10:52] We ddo not understand why nvidia driver seems to install differently, thats all [10:52] Well, we make further investigations on this. [10:52] zzippy: I wouldn't know. Does this also happen with the packages in the ubuntu repository? [10:54] tseliot: we use x-staging ppa and only nvidia-319 from xorgedgers, not their whole ppa [10:59] zzippy: yes, I meant the nvidia packages in the ubuntu repository [11:01] 319 arrived in ubuntu repository? Sorry, did not know. [11:13] ..cannot find any nvidia-319 in ubuntu repos. [11:32] zzippy, nvidia-319 is not available in ubuntu yet -- i have never seen "/etc/alternatives/aso", but since you said you played with several version and scripts you should outrule it isnt generated/caused by them [11:33] the edgers 319 package is plainly based on "nvidia-graphics-drivers-313-updates (313.26-0ubuntu3)" [11:34] zzippy, so i guess tseliot meant to try to confirm problems with 313.26-0ubuntu3 [11:34] yes, they haven't approved my 319 package yet... [11:35] tseliot, feel free to push them to the saucy pocket only in xorg-edgers [11:59] ricotz: sorry, with "aso" I meant "and so on", was too lazy to type "x86_64-linux-gnu_xorg_extra_modules" ;) [12:02] ricotz: ok === seb128_ is now known as seb128
