| ricotz | mamarley, I am currently pushing 304.128 | 17:56 |
|---|---|---|
| mamarley | ricotz: Where did you find out about that? I normally check the Linux part of the devtalk.nvidia.com forum and I haven't seen anything there. | 17:57 |
| mamarley | Maybe they don't post legacy drivers there? | 17:58 |
| ricotz | mamarley, I guess aaron didn't noticed yet | 17:59 |
| ricotz | the ftp server lists ist | 18:00 |
| ricotz | ist/it | 18:00 |
| mamarley | Ah, OK. I will start checking that daily as well. | 18:00 |
| mamarley | Or maybe I will be an overachiever and write a script that checks it automatically... | 18:01 |
| ricotz | 355.11 ;) | 18:01 |
| mamarley | Argh! | 18:01 |
| mamarley | Maybe I should handle this one? I don't want you to have to do all the work... | 18:01 |
| ricotz | please do | 18:02 |
| mamarley | OK | 18:02 |
| ricotz | mamarley, please use the ppa packaging for now | 18:04 |
| mamarley | Yep, that is what I am doing. | 18:05 |
| ricotz | not the git one | 18:05 |
| ricotz | ok | 18:05 |
| ricotz | vivid/wily are the same, trusty has a different substvars | 18:05 |
| ricotz | feel free to upload it is somewhere else for review if you are unsure | 18:06 |
| ricotz | bbö | 18:06 |
| ricotz | bbl | 18:06 |
| mamarley | OK | 18:06 |
| mamarley | ricotz: Is nvidia-settings any different across the distro versions? | 18:12 |
| ricotz | no | 18:12 |
| mamarley | Thanks, that's what I thought. | 18:12 |
| mamarley | ricotz: I uploaded nvidia-settings to https://launchpad.net/~mamarley/+archive/ubuntu/staging/+packages. Vivid and Trusty are failing but that is just because I forgot to put the libvdpau update in there as well. | 18:28 |
| ricotz | mamarley, ok, no, use a common orig-tarball | 18:39 |
| mamarley | That's what I was trying to do. I used "debuild -S". | 18:39 |
| ricotz | try harder then ;) | 18:40 |
| ricotz | "dpkg-buildpackage -S -sa" and "dpkg-buildpackage -S -sd" | 18:40 |
| mamarley | OK, I will do that. Just a sec... | 18:41 |
| ricotz | you used "uupdate"? | 18:41 |
| mamarley | I'm not sure what that means. | 18:41 |
| ricotz | man uupdate | 18:41 |
| ricotz | mamarley, want me to upload nvidia-settings? | 18:45 |
| mamarley | No, I want to figure out how to do it correctly. | 18:46 |
| mamarley | Dangit, even when I use debuild -S -sd it still uploads the orig tarball. | 18:47 |
| mamarley | I will try again from scratch. | 18:49 |
| ricotz | mamarley, any luck? | 18:56 |
| mamarley | ricotz: Uh, maybe. Just a minute. | 18:56 |
| mamarley | Here goes nothing. | 18:58 |
| mamarley | ricotz: I think it worked that time! | 18:59 |
| mamarley | Yep, all the uploads were accepted even though only the first had the orig.tar.bz2. | 19:00 |
| mamarley | Now for the driver itself. | 19:01 |
| ricotz | mamarley, btw you don't need to upload things to check if a source package as wanted | 19:03 |
| ricotz | mamarley, ok | 19:03 |
| ricotz | please create new ones for the gpu ppa | 19:03 |
| ricotz | mamarley, I have the driver ready for upload | 19:04 |
| mamarley | ricotz: Do you want any more changes other than just the version number? | 19:04 |
| mamarley | If you have the driver ready, don't wait for me. I can practice on my staging PPA so next time I won't need any help. | 19:05 |
| ricotz | mamarley, should I upload everything then? | 19:06 |
| mamarley | ricotz: Sure, but can you please check my driver upload to my staging PPA once I get that done? | 19:06 |
| ricotz | mamarley, feel free to ask though, but in my experience it sometimes helps to figure out things yourself | 19:07 |
| ricotz | mamarley, ok | 19:08 |
| mamarley | ricotz: I did figure it out myself before, but as you can see, I figured it out all wrong. :/ | 19:10 |
| ricotz | mamarley, the fundamental problem with nvidia-settings it isnt debsrc-3.0 and only supported *.tar.gz tarballs therefore the original tar.bz2 gets repacked | 19:11 |
| mamarley | Ah, OK. | 19:11 |
| mamarley | I didn't realize that before, so I downloaded the .tar.bz2 files because they are smaller. | 19:12 |
| ricotz | there are *only* official bz2 versions | 19:13 |
| * mamarley beats himself with the clue-by-four. | 19:13 | |
| mamarley | ricotz: I know I appear as a complete n00b right now, but I promise you I can be helpful. | 19:16 |
| ricotz | mamarley, don't worry | 19:17 |
| mamarley | I just need to get accustomed to the correct way of doing things after doing it wrong for so long. | 19:17 |
| ricotz | mamarley, you are familiar with the dkms patching stuff in the driver packagign though? | 19:18 |
| mamarley | Yes, I have added patches to fix compiling against new kernels a few times. | 19:19 |
| ricotz | ok | 19:19 |
| mamarley | I am uploading my practice driver now, but it takes a long time because I have a ridiculously slow Internet connection right now. | 19:28 |
| ricotz | mamarley, same here ;) | 19:34 |
| === JanC_ is now known as JanC | ||
| mamarley | ricotz: Woohoo, it looks like all of my driver builds were successful in https://launchpad.net/~mamarley/+archive/ubuntu/staging/+packages ! | 19:49 |
