| furkan | so i just installed oibaf ppa, and the checkerboarding that i recorded in that video i shared is now gone | 05:16 |
|---|---|---|
| furkan | but at the moment i don't know which package would have fixed it | 05:16 |
| tjaalton | your driver most likely | 05:17 |
| furkan | did you see that checkerboarding from the vid in the dropbox link that i shared? | 05:18 |
| tjaalton | yes | 05:18 |
| furkan | do you think it's worth it if i manage to narrow down the package? would it make a difference at this point? | 05:19 |
| tjaalton | I said it's the driver | 05:19 |
| tjaalton | intel? | 05:19 |
| furkan | no amd | 05:19 |
| furkan | radeonsi | 05:19 |
| tjaalton | ok | 05:20 |
| tjaalton | so could be mesa then | 05:20 |
| tjaalton | have you filed a bug? | 05:21 |
| furkan | i thought maybe also libglamor | 05:21 |
| furkan | could be a possibility | 05:21 |
| furkan | no i haven't, i can if you think it's a good idea | 05:21 |
| tjaalton | i doubt oibaf ships xserver git | 05:21 |
| tjaalton | there is no separate libglamor anymore | 05:21 |
| furkan | when i ran the apt-get upgrade it pulled down a libglamor | 05:21 |
| furkan | let me check my apt log | 05:22 |
| furkan | libglamor0:amd64 (0.6.0-0ubuntu4, 0.6.0+git1503211830.347ef4~gd~t) | 05:22 |
| tjaalton | uh | 05:22 |
| tjaalton | libglamor is in the server now | 05:23 |
| furkan | as of 1.17? | 05:23 |
| tjaalton | perhaps | 05:23 |
| tjaalton | I've lost track | 05:23 |
| furkan | maybe what happened is... when i added the PPA, it assumed that i'm using the default trusty kernel + xorg | 05:23 |
| tjaalton | so what do you use then? | 05:24 |
| furkan | i'm running the vivid HWE from x-staging | 05:24 |
| furkan | installed the same night that mlankhorst put it up lol | 05:25 |
| tjaalton | right, oibaf-trusty probably is obsolete by now, no idea | 05:25 |
| tjaalton | so it proves nothing | 05:25 |
| furkan | seems to be recently updated, but in any case i'll try to pull the vivid packages instead and see if the checkboarding stays fixed | 05:26 |
| furkan | to be sure i should probably also boot into a vivid live USB stick and check | 05:29 |
| tjaalton | what card is it? | 05:29 |
| tjaalton | yes | 05:29 |
| furkan | Radeon R7 260X | 05:29 |
| tjaalton | I've forgot what I have | 05:30 |
| furkan | ok i think you're right, it seems the packages that overlap between oibaf and the x-staging ppas are the libdrm-* packages | 05:33 |
| furkan | those are the user-space graphics drivers right? | 05:33 |
| tjaalton | no | 05:34 |
| tjaalton | the library between kernel and the drivers | 05:34 |
| tjaalton | i have the same card | 05:34 |
| tjaalton | on a box I don't use much | 05:34 |
| furkan | lol nice coincidence | 05:34 |
| tjaalton | so file the bug first | 05:34 |
| furkan | alright will do that tomorrow | 05:35 |
| furkan | should i include that video i uploaded to dropbox? | 05:35 |
| tjaalton | a link is enough | 05:36 |
| tjaalton | hoping it'll be fixed soon | 05:36 |
| furkan | just tried the oibaf vivid ppa, it installed the libdrm-* packages and libvpx1 | 05:40 |
| furkan | still no checkerboarding after a reboot | 05:40 |
| furkan | i'll just try a vivid USB tomorrow to be sure | 05:40 |
| furkan | before posting a bug | 05:41 |
| furkan | reporting rather | 05:41 |
| furkan | well i guess in either case it'll need to be fixed for the trusty hwe as well | 05:41 |
| tjaalton | did you run vivid kernel on trusty? | 05:46 |
| furkan | no, i don't think it's been put up, as far as i'm aware | 05:46 |
| tjaalton | that could be it then | 05:47 |
| tjaalton | just try 3.19 mainline | 05:47 |
| furkan | i've tried utopic and latest mainline | 05:47 |
| tjaalton | ah | 05:47 |
| furkan | running 4.0 rc4 or 5 i think | 05:47 |
| furkan | because radeonsi finally has driver fan control in 4.0 lol | 05:48 |
| furkan | i'll test in 3.19 as well | 05:48 |
| furkan | i'll try various combinations | 05:48 |
| furkan | gonna head off to sleep now, i'll do more testing tomorrow and make a bug report | 05:50 |
| tjaalton | k | 05:50 |
| tjaalton | yep, works fine in vivid | 06:09 |
