| `ph8 | Hi all | 16:23 |
| `ph8 | I've found a fix for a problem i'm having on Xenial, https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=89055 | 16:24 |
| ubot5 | Freedesktop bug 89055 in DRM/Intel "[SKL APL] WARN_ON(!wm_changed) hit in the WM code with multiple pipes enabled" [Major,Closed: fixed] | 16:24 |
| `ph8 | It says it'll be "available upstream in Kernel 4.8" | 16:24 |
| `ph8 | can anyone tell me how to get Kernel 4.8 on Xenial? Is it possible? | 16:24 |
| jsalisbury | `ph8, you can get the v4.8-rc1 kernel from here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.8-rc1/ | 18:25 |
| jsalisbury | `ph8, that kernel is only suggested for testing. Can you also open a launchpad bug, so we can get the patch sru'd into Ubuntu? | 18:25 |
| tjaalton | there is no single patch | 19:14 |
| tjaalton | for skl watermarks | 19:15 |
| tjaalton | it's a huge mess | 19:15 |
| === davmor2 is now known as davmor2_Hols | ||
| tjaalton | and still not actually fixed upstream | 19:15 |
| tjaalton | 4.8 might get it right in the end | 19:15 |
| ph8 | Hi all, sorry to be a pain but i was here earlier asking about Kernel 4.8 and how to get it on Xenial, then my internet connection completely lost it and i never saw whether anyone responded | 19:40 |
| ph8 | did anyone answer? | 19:40 |
| jsalisbury | ph8, you can get the v4.8-rc1 kernel from here: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.8-rc1/ | 19:44 |
| jsalisbury | ph8, that kernel is only suggested for testing. Can you also open a launchpad bug, so we can get the patch sru'd into Ubuntu? | 19:44 |
| ph8 | that sounds like fun | 19:45 |
| ph8 | what's an SRU? A backport type thing? | 19:45 |
| jsalisbury | ph8, basically. It's a stable release update. | 19:46 |
| jsalisbury | ph8 If you are not familiar with how to open a bug, the following wiki page should help: | 19:46 |
| jsalisbury | https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs | 19:46 |
| ph8 | i think i'm going to find it's mentioned in many other bugs | 19:47 |
| ph8 | just doing some cross referencing | 19:47 |
| ph8 | this seems to describe it: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1553503 | 19:47 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1553503 in linux (Ubuntu) "multi monitors - black flashes or black screen when the mouse cursor leaves a monitor" [High,Triaged] | 19:47 |
| jsalisbury | ph8, Thanks possible. You can add comments to those bugs and mention that you are affected as well. | 19:48 |
| jsalisbury | ph8, if you comment on an existing bug, you can add the tag 'kernel-da-key' to ensure I see it for the backporting. | 19:48 |
| jsalisbury | ph8, An easier way a bug can be opened verses reading that whole wiki is by running the following from a terminal: | 19:49 |
| jsalisbury | ubuntu-bug linux | 19:49 |
| ph8 | nice one jsalisbury, i added the tag to this bug and commented to show it affects me: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1553503 | 19:53 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1553503 in linux (Ubuntu) "multi monitors - black flashes or black screen when the mouse cursor leaves a monitor" [High,Triaged] | 19:53 |
| ph8 | thanks! | 19:53 |
| jsalisbury | ph8, great, I'll review that bug and comment as well. | 19:53 |
| ph8 | thanks, i mean this isn't exactly my problem | 19:53 |
| ph8 | but that bug is a bug that i think affects me | 19:53 |
| ph8 | My second screen just doesn't come on and i get a stack trace that matches the freedesktop bug report | 19:54 |
| ph8 | (well, it flickers, crashes X etc) | 19:54 |
| jsalisbury | ph8, ack. I'm going to ask for some testing in the bug you mention to narrow things down. | 19:55 |
| ph8 | Amazing, thanks! | 19:55 |
| ph8 | do you think me trying 4.8 in the meantime is a terrible idea? | 19:56 |
| ph8 | It's a laptop i work on every day ;-) | 19:56 |
| jsalisbury | ph8, It's worth a test. You can always uninstall it and boot back into the supported kernel. There is some documentation on that here: | 19:58 |
| jsalisbury | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds | 19:58 |
| ph8 | Thanks again! | 19:58 |
| jsalisbury | np | 20:04 |
| tjaalton | jsalisbury: did you see my comments? :) | 20:45 |
| tjaalton | jsalisbury, ph8: upstream is still working on that, 4.8-rc1 isn't fresh enough | 20:49 |
| jsalisbury | tjaalton, thanks for the update. Your comment was scrolled off. | 21:16 |
| tjaalton | jsalisbury: ok, added a short comment that it's still being worked on upstream | 21:42 |
