[09:52] <ricotz> mamarley, thanks!, copied
[10:04] <mamarley> ricotz: Thanks!
[10:05] <mamarley> tseliot: 364.15 is now ready to test to see if it fixes the DRM KMS PRIME issue for you.  Right now the default is still off.
[10:07] <ricotz> mamarley, make really sure to use the previous packaging as base
[10:08] <ricotz> e.g. in 16.04 dkms.conf appeared again
[10:09] <tseliot> mamarley: ok, thanks, I'll let you know how that goes
[10:10] <mamarley> ricotz: Yes, I based all the 364.15 packages off of the 364.12 packages that were in the PPA.
[10:11] <mamarley> I always do it that way.
[10:11] <ricotz> debian/dkms_nvidia/dkms.conf
[10:51] <tseliot> mamarley: passing modeset=1 in /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf doesn't always seem to work
[10:52] <mamarley> tseliot: What is the way to check if it is on again?
[10:52] <tseliot> mamarley: sudo cat /sys/module/nvidia_drm/parameters/modeset
[10:53] <mamarley> Hmm, yeah, it doesn't seem to be on here either.
[10:53] <tseliot> shutting down lightdm and rmmodding/modprobing nvidia-drm work
[10:53] <tseliot> *works
[10:53] <tseliot> also the bug is fixed
[10:54] <tseliot> let me check the initramfs
[10:56] <mamarley> The nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf file is a symlink.  Perhaps that has something to do with it?
[10:59] <mamarley> I replaced the symlink with a regular file and it seems to work now.
[11:00] <tseliot> yes, that's the problem
[11:00] <mamarley> That file is managed with the alternatives system though, so I'm not sure what the real solution would be.
[11:00] <tseliot> I can customise the hook to copy the actual file
[11:01] <mamarley> Ah, OK.
[11:49] <tseliot> mamarley: ok, I have a hook that seems to do exactly what I need
[11:49] <mamarley> Great!
[11:54] <mamarley> tseliot: I am going to be either at work or away from a computer pretty much all day, so it would probably be better if you uploaded it.
[11:54] <tseliot> mamarley: sure, I will
[12:13]  * tseliot -> lunch
[12:17] <soee> mamarley: i tested new driver in some games etc. all works fine. Thanks for packaging :)
[12:34] <mamarley> No problem :)
[15:12] <tseliot> mamarley: the hook is in place, the file is not a link in the initramfs, yet modesetting is disabled
[15:12] <mamarley> Argh!
[15:14] <mamarley> Is it always disabled or does it work sometimes and fail other times?
[15:14] <ogra_> grrr !!!
[15:15] <ogra_> did someone just upload livecd-rootfs 
[15:15]  * ogra_ starts over 
[15:16] <tseliot> mamarley: not sure
[15:16] <ogra_> err
[15:16] <ogra_> echn
[15:17] <tseliot> ogra_: I doubt complaining in this channel will help :P
[15:17] <ogra_> haha, yeah 
[15:17] <mamarley> tseliot: When I replaced nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf with a regular file, it worked on both systems I tried it on the first time.  I needed to leave though so I didn't have time to try again.
[15:20] <tseliot> mamarley: no, I'm an idiot. I forgot to set modeset=1 when I rebuilt :P
[15:21] <mamarley> That would do it :p
[15:39] <tseliot> success
[15:40] <tseliot> ok, I'm going to upload then
[15:43] <tseliot> mamarley: actually, I'll do it tomorrow and get rid of the whole grub-gfxpayload thing too, since that shouldn't be needed any more
