[05:58] Good morning. [08:52] screen [09:00] I have just upgraded to 15.10 with a lurks crypt partitioned system (full disk encryption), and the 4.x kernel doesn't load the password prompt while the 3.x kernel does. Anybody can help me about that? [10:34] Hi all [14:58] how do i reset all my screen/x configurations? where is all the user-specific configuration? [15:02] in your home dir [15:02] i'd guess its in .config [15:02] .local [15:03] .compiz [15:07] mmh i removed my .config/compiz folder but when i plug in a screen it still set it to some random resolution and my x server breaks. [15:08] thought unity was using a new video server [15:08] not X in other words [15:10] <--- still on KDE/Xserver here [15:10] unity-system-compositor is not running, so i should still be on x11 [15:11] there is this gui in ubuntu-system-settings that sets display resolution and seems to save a per-screen configuration somehwere [15:11] now when i plug in my 4k screen it always sets it to 60hz which the graphics card doesnt seem to handle [15:14] what type of connection to the 4k ? [15:16] displayport [15:16] it used to work fine with 30hz and then just decided to break [15:18] which gpu? [15:20] i have a thinkpad t440s. i think its and intel hd 4400 [15:26] an* [15:26] just trying to make sure the gpu is 4k capable [15:28] seems so on the forums, and the driver works 30Hz , but there's no mention of 60Hz support so far [15:29] so it worked fine for like two days [15:29] and previously xrandr told me that it doesnt support 60hz, which i dont mind [15:29] but now it doesnt work anymore (i just get a black screen) and i assume it is because it is set to 60hz [15:30] .config/montiors.xml said 60hz but even after removing that file it still seem to load a config from somewhere [15:30] i dont understand what changed :( [15:30] it really sucks that ubuntu doesnt expose the settings for detached screens anywhere and all the documentation seeems to be outdated [15:30] well you are on a developer OS so not all gpus and drivers are up to date with latest technology [15:30] i dont have a .xsession or an xorg.conf or an monitors.xml [15:32] kaimast, did you upgrade to the latest kernel a dayt or 2 ago? [15:32] yeah but it started to happen with 4.1 already [15:33] also. when booting i get output on both screens. so it seems like kms works fine [15:33] for now it would be fine if i just got the screen working with a lower resolution [15:33] has the time passed where all linux folks used thinkpads? i had so many issues with that laptops graphics over the last year [15:34] kaimast: what does "xrandr -q" report? [15:34] TJ: how do i run xrandr when x is broken? [15:38] kaimast: The greeter should be running X; unless lightdm is broken too. Use a VT console: "DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr -q" [15:40] there is a "*+" next to the 60hz resolution. so i guess that one is selected? [15:41] kaimast: Correct, selected *and* preferred [15:41] kaimast: That info comes from the monitor via EDID [15:43] EDID means it comes from the monitor? how do i override it? [15:44] Maybe you can use something similar to how I do it. I have "/mnt/target/etc/X11/Xsession.d/01fix-rotation-physical-dimensions" which contains: "xrandr -d :0.3 --fbmm 642x524" - you can use that set the mode you want [15:44] kaimast: You don't over-ride it; you just select a different mode to the 'preferred' mode [16:00] TJ: i get "crtc 0 failed" or something [16:02] it also only give me a 60 hz option for 4k... that was the problem iguess [16:19] CRTC is the output head, stands for Cathode Ray Tube Controller, and controlls the pixel clock that drives the data to the output. I suspect it can't handle the data rate for 60Hz at the resolution selected [16:20] mmmh i even get that when i want to disable a screen [16:22] maybe its just a byproduct of how the driver does it; a bugette :) [16:28] mh [16:28] did mesa 11 already land in wily? wonder if that will help [16:28] dont want to mess around with ppas though [17:19] kaimast: http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=mesa&searchon=names&suite=wily§ion=all [17:23] kaimast, mesa 11? the latest in the repos is 8.2 [17:24] the link shows that it is at 10.6 right now. i think 8.2 is the version of xorg? [17:25] dunno , I'm on KDE/Plasma 5.4 [17:26] mesa 11 brings opengl 4, so i hope it lands soon [17:26] seems like quite the disparity between DEs [17:26] kaimast: willy is after freeze i gues [17:27] urgh [17:28] kaimast: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WilyWerewolf/ReleaseSchedule yup Debian import freeze occured at 20th of August [17:30] i'd assume they make an exception for this? [17:36] kaimast: dunno i'd watch if it get updated then === tsimonq2 is now known as tsimonq2_alt === tsimonq2_alt is now known as tsimonq2 === JanC_ is now known as JanC [23:01] is anyone running Wily with Gnome Wayland Session on Intel HD Graphics? [23:01] curious if it actually works.
