[08:53] <alkisg> Some schools are starting to report nouveau segfaults recently. The weird part is that they're still in the same 12.04 installation that they were for years.
[08:54] <alkisg> [   63.415500] firefox[2221]: segfault at 4 ip b0a28e79 sp bfc5d0d0 error 4 in nouveau_vieux_dri.so[b0a1f000+2f000]
[08:54] <alkisg> Linux pc01 3.13.0-83-generic #127~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 11 12:54:55 UTC 2016 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
[08:54] <alkisg> xserver-xorg    1:7.6+12ubuntu2
[08:55] <alkisg> Should I be looking for a xorg regression, or could it be that firefox is now trying some opengl code that it wasn't trying in the past, and it's breaking existing installation?
[08:55] <alkisg> They report that it happens when they're "just surfing" or "right clicking to save a picture"
[08:57] <tjaalton> ancient stuff, not really interested, sorry
[09:04]  * alkisg doesn't see any recent xorg updates for 12.04 in the apt logs...
[09:06] <tjaalton> because there haven't been any in years
[09:06] <tjaalton> but they're running the trusty stack, or kernel at least
[09:06] <alkisg> The kernel only
[09:06] <tjaalton> so check the kernel then
[09:06] <alkisg> Hmm you think the kernel is more likely the cause than firefox?
[09:06] <alkisg> For now this seems to work around it : "rm -f /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/dri/nouveau_vieux_dri.so"
[09:07] <alkisg> ...that's for 3d support only, isn't it?
[09:07] <tjaalton> yes
[09:07] <alkisg> Cool, they'll be fine without it :)
[09:07] <alkisg> Thank you tjaalton
[14:25] <tseliot> one more vulkan driver...
[14:29] <mamarley> tseliot: Where is that?  I see only 364.16.
[14:32] <tseliot> mamarley: https://developer.nvidia.com/vulkan-driver
[14:32] <tseliot> 364.91
[14:33] <mamarley> That appears to be only for Microsoft® Windows®.
[14:33] <tseliot> right. I'm not sure why I've just received a notification about it. 364.16 is already in the vulkan PPA BTW
[14:34] <mamarley> Yep, I installed it yesterday.  I get a segfault from vkcube though…
[14:34] <tseliot> :/
[14:35] <tjaalton> vkcube is broken
[14:35] <tjaalton> try sascha willems demos
[21:52] <Azelphur> Hey folks, odd question. I bought a little bluetooth gamepad, connects and works fine (it identifies as a keyboard and sends keystrokes). I'm wondering if there's some way I could abuse it as a macro pad? binding the keystrokes it sends to run commands, I know of stuff like xbindkeys but I don't think it can do per-device binds?
