[06:55] <gaben> hi, a very quick question
[06:55] <gaben> my brightness controls stopped workin in 13.10
[06:55] <gaben> is xorg the right package to file a bug against?
[06:55] <gaben> they worked fine ever since 12.04
[06:57] <tjaalton> just saw some bug about it
[06:58] <tjaalton> oh you filed it
[06:59] <tjaalton> gaben: you could try an earlier nvidia driver
[07:00] <gaben> okay, i will try that
[07:00] <gaben> yes indeed it was me, just checking whether it was the right place to file it ;)
[07:02] <tjaalton> it's fine
[07:03] <gaben> thanks
[07:08] <gaben> I can only find 304 and 319 in the saucy repos
[07:08] <gaben> is there a ppa for other driver versions?
[07:11] <tjaalton> dunno, but 304 should support your card
[07:28] <gaben> indeed, but i don't get all the performance fixes of later version
[07:37] <tjaalton> it would confirm the bug is in the new driver..
[07:51] <gaben> I'll reboot now and try it out
[07:53] <ingo> @tjaalton
[07:53] <ingo> jackpot
[07:53] <ingo> 304 works
[07:53] <tjaalton> ok
[07:55] <tjaalton> ingo: there's also nvidia-319-updates which is a bugfix release that might work
[07:56] <ingo> good, i will try that one
[07:57] <ingo> actually i was using that one
[07:58] <ingo> DkmsStatus: nvidia-319-updates, 319.60, 3.11.0-12-generic, x86_64: installed nvidia-319-updates, 319.60, 3.8.0-31-generic, x86_64: installed
[07:58] <ingo> from my log. if i'm not mistaken that means that that one was running, doesn't it?
[07:59] <tjaalton> yes
[08:01] <ingo> Is there a way/or shoulld I inform NVIDIA of this?
[08:17] <tjaalton> there is nvidia-bug-report.sh or such
[08:17] <tjaalton> a script you could run to report it to nvidia

[13:03] <bjsnider> i don't know how much longer they'll bother with 319, and there's a beta driver
[13:23] <tseliot> bjsnider: what's your point?
[13:23] <bjsnider> i wonder if the issue is already fixed in the beta
[13:24] <tjaalton> yeah I thought about that too
[13:25] <tseliot> what issue?
[13:25] <tjaalton> bug 1241745
[13:25] <ubottu> bug 1241745 in nvidia-graphics-drivers-319 (Ubuntu) "[regression] Changing the screen brightness does not work anymore in 319.xx" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1241745
[13:27] <tseliot> oh, I'm wondering if something changed in the kernel but then why would 304 still work?
[13:29] <tseliot> I've just subscribed NVIDIA, just in case...
[13:31] <bjsnider> is there a safe way for that guy to test the beta?
[13:34] <tseliot> bjsnider: I have a package he could test
[13:35] <bjsnider> tseliot, he's in here, ingo
[13:36] <tseliot> ingo: if you want to test the latest driver, you can remove the driver that you're currently using and install the following http://people.canonical.com/~amilone/nvidia-331-updates_331.13-0ubuntu0.0.1_amd64.deb

[21:03] <SunPowered> What is the proper method of assigning which graphics card X outputs to?  I installed a new NVIDIA GeForce GT 620 card to a board with integrated Intel graphics.  I downloaded and ran the latest NVIDIA driver for my system (304.108).  It created a new xorg.conf file, and the installation appeared to go ok.  Upon restarting the computer, the output is still to the old integrated DVI port.  With `lspci -C video` I see the new card a
[21:03] <SunPowered> ttached to physical id: 0.  Using a suggestion from a Wiki article, I added `Option "UseDisplayDevice" "DFP"` to the Screen section in the xorg.conf file.  I appear to have extended my knowledge of this.  Any tips or articles I should know? 
[21:11] <bjsnider> SunPowered, why not just disable the intel chip in the bios
[21:13] <SunPowered> good idea, didn't think about the BIOS.  I'll give it a whirl
[21:18] <SunPowered> bingo.  Thanks bjsnider.  Learned something today
