ricotzmamarley, hi07:59
ricotzmamarley, did you and tseliot tested the last 364 upload?08:00
darkxstmamarley, ricotz its probably not the best idea to turn on KMS yet by default09:46
ricotzdarkxst, at least plymouth and fbtty work ;)10:07
ricotzmamarley, I thinking about reverting the last changes of 36410:07
darkxstricotz, mutter still crashing?10:09
ricotzdarkxst, gpu-manager failing and gdm not starting, so yeah10:09
darkxstin cogl_framebuffer_allocate()?10:10
ricotzno time to look into that10:10
darkxstcheck the core dump ;0 10:10
ricotzbut leaving the users with it seems not nice10:10
darkxstyeh, it should be tested on all compositors before enabling by default10:11
darkxstits not a native KMS implementation, so likely there are going to be more bugs still10:11
ricotz364 is not installed without forcing it and it is still a beta though10:12
darkxstwont run at all, is < beta10:13
ricotzyeah, that is why I said I am tempted to revert the last changes10:13
ricotzsince it seems broken besides modeset too10:14
ricotzbbl10:15
mamarleydarkxst: Will it work if you change "options nvidia_364_drm modeset=1" in /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-graphics-drivers.conf from 1 to 0?11:09
mamarleyIf it does, we can just disable KMS again without un-fixing the initramfs hook or the GRUB payload thing.11:09
darkxstmamarley, I can't test right now, but that did work on 364.1211:13
darkxst(so far as mutter is concerned)11:14
darkxstI will try test it tomorrow and let you know11:26
mamarleyOK11:26
darkxstmamarley, ok so quick test modeset=0 works, but you get plymouth loading on a fb which probably is not supported by nvidia without KMS11:48
darkxstso probably best to leave the grub blacklist for now11:49
darkxstI mean revert grub stuff11:50
mamarleydarkxst: Is it an EFI system?  If so, it may be using the EFI framebuffer.12:13
darkxstno12:13
mamarleyWhat resolution is the framebuffer?  Is it native or just 1024x768 or something?12:13
darkxstlow res not even 1024x76812:14
mamarleyHmm, that's interesting.12:16
mamarleyI will go ahead and reupload with modesetting turned off again, but if the plymouth framebuffer thing isn't causing you any issues, I would like to wait and ask tseliot about that before I change it.12:17
darkxstwell not really it just uses the BIOS resolution12:17
darkxstmamarley, well it worked, but there was a reason why nvidia was blacklisted for so long ;) 12:20
mamarleyI think tseliot's reasoning was that all the cards supported by the 364 driver are new enough to not have whatever the original problem was.  That was really before my time though, so I suggest you talk to him about it.12:21
darkxstmamarley, ok, just fix the modeset option then12:23
mamarleyWorking on that now. :)12:23
darkxstcool12:26
ricotz(so much for an friday afternoon upload)12:32
ricotzdarkxst, do you have problems with gdm besides that?12:34
darkxstricotz, no12:35
ricotze.g. being thrown at tty1 after login with some delay12:35
darkxstricotz, oh yes I get that unrelated to the KMS modeset though12:35
darkxstit was happening before 36412:36
ricotzdarkxst, there is an upstream permission fix12:36
ricotzmaybe related?12:36
darkxstnot sure? havent seen it12:36
darkxstalso we may have pam configuration issues12:37
darkxsttho that should only affect passwordless accounts I think12:39
ricotzhmm, I see12:39
mamarleydarkxst: Uploaded. :)12:45
darkxstalso gnome-control-center crashes here on nouveau12:45
darkxstbut then I do have a gtx75012:45
darkxstmamarley, thanks!12:46
mamarleydarkxst: Looks like everything is published now.13:13
darkxstmamarley, ok, I can't reboot again yet13:13
mamarleyOK13:13
darkxstdiff looks fine though, so should be good (though maybe ricotz had further issues?)13:14
