| ricotz | mamarley, I am testing 375 a bit, no more freezing is a good thing ;) (compared to 370) | 07:29 |
|---|---|---|
| soee | mamarley: how is the driver packaging going ? | 08:57 |
| ricotz | soee, looks first ;) | 10:24 |
| soee | i have installed if from mamarley staging ppa | 10:36 |
| soee | seems to work fine | 10:36 |
| mamarley | ricotz: soee: Either one of you using KDE? I find that 375 makes the KDE lock screen crash on exit, causing it to be restarted and therefore making it impossible to unlock the screen. (At least without a non-security-conscious hack I have created.) | 10:42 |
| soee | mamarley: it was like that for a long time already | 10:43 |
| soee | weeks i think, this is not new drier issue | 10:44 |
| mamarley | ricotz: Also, I have failed to compile nvidia-settings 375. It now depends on nvml.h, which after some research I determined was provided by the nvidia-cuda-dev package. However, even after installing that, it still complains of missing symbols. | 10:44 |
| soee | oh wait, lock screen or shutdown screen ? | 10:44 |
| mamarley | Lock screen. When I enter the password, it crashes and restarts, displaying the password prompt again. | 10:45 |
| soee | mamarley: works for me, just tested but i'm on Plasma 5.8 | 10:45 |
| ricotz | mamarley, GNOME here, so far no issues, I take it those packaging changes are needed now | 10:45 |
| mamarley | soee: How did you get 5.8? | 10:45 |
| ricotz | soee, maybe try 367 to confirm which is the most support currently | 10:45 |
| soee | mamarley: i'm on Neon and i am using dev/unstable | 10:46 |
| mamarley | ricotz: Which packaging changes? | 10:46 |
| ricotz | mamarley, I might have some time later to look at nvidia-settings | 10:46 |
| ricotz | mamarley, regarding glvnd? | 10:46 |
| soee | ricotz: confirm what ? | 10:46 |
| mamarley | ricotz: Yeah, without those changes, EGL does not work anymore. | 10:46 |
| ricotz | soee, your problem with kde | 10:46 |
| ricotz | mamarley, I see | 10:47 |
| mamarley | I think they changed EGL to use GLVND now, so I had to delete the non-GLVND EGL library and install the 10_nvidia.json configuration file in the proper place to tell GLVND to use the NVIDIA EGL. | 10:47 |
| mamarley | There wasn't any documentation about where that was though, so I straced es2_info to figure out what file it was trying to open. | 10:48 |
| soee | ricotz: i think those are some changes in Plasma thah are my problems root. For example sddm failes a bit with propriety driver - it does not focus on password field or does not render properly on primary screen - will talk with d_ed anout it. Second issue is that when i switch profile on my optimus machine logout screen crashes as it can't find opengl or something | 10:48 |
| mamarley | KDE is very picky about OpenGL these days. | 10:49 |
| soee | right, as i said after switching profile opengl crash makes some ininite loop crash for logout screen and drkonqi :D | 10:50 |
| ricotz | mamarley, ok, remember to put new stuff at the proper places, e.g. insert things alphabetically | 10:50 |
| ricotz | seems to be fine regarding armhf since it built ok | 10:51 |
| soee | http://i.imgur.com/XZ5tA99.jpg | 10:51 |
| mamarley | ricotz: How should the alphabetization be handled with all those substitution variables? I'm looking at nvidia-graphics-drivers.dirs.in and not really seeing a pattern. | 10:55 |
| ricotz | mamarley, e.g. debian/templates/nvidia-graphics-drivers.dirs.in | 10:59 |
| ricotz | /lib/udev/rules.d | 11:00 |
| ricotz | /usr/share/vulkan/icd.d | 11:00 |
| ricotz | /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d | 11:00 |
| ricotz | +/usr/share/glvnd/egl_vendor.d | 11:00 |
| mamarley | Yeah, I see I got that wrong, but I am wondering why, for example, the /usr/share stuff is not above /usr/src since "h" comes before "c". | 11:01 |
| ricotz | I know there are issues everywhere, just saying no need to make it worse, I won't reject it for that though | 11:02 |
| mamarley | ricotz: OK. I guess I should put the GLVND thing right above the Vulkan thing then? I can make these changes and then include them with the next 375 upload. | 11:03 |
| mamarley | Also, I'm not the only one seeing applications crashing on exit with 375: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/972736/linux/some-applications-crash-on-exit-with-nvidia-375-10 | 11:09 |
| ricotz | mamarley, ok, better hold it back then | 11:14 |
| mamarley | OK. Can I at least keep it in my staging PPA though? | 11:15 |
| ricotz | sure | 11:15 |
| ricotz | mamarley, regarding nvidia-setting, no idea what they are smoking ;) but moving this nvml dependency from optional to mandatory is bad | 11:16 |
| mamarley | Yeah, that was what I thought too. | 11:16 |
| mamarley | I wondered if maybe even they intended to include nvml.h in the nvidia-settings source, but somebody forgot to do a "git add" ? | 11:17 |
| ricotz | packaging this 1.9gb monster won't happen, so reverting those few bits to have it optional again seems reasonable | 11:17 |
| mamarley | What is the 1.9GB monster? | 11:18 |
| ricotz | this doesnt look like dlopen so without the actual library ... | 11:18 |
| ricotz | cuda 8 | 11:18 |
| mamarley | That is already packaged in Yakkety and Zesty, but even then the nvml.h in it is missing symbols. | 11:19 |
| mamarley | (But yeah, I definitely wouldn't want to have to deal with backporting that, and having to install 1.9GB of crap just for nvidia-settings is dumb.) | 11:19 |
| ricotz | ah, right | 11:20 |
| mamarley | This is one of those times I wish I could just talk to aaronp directly and ask him a few questions… | 11:20 |
| ricotz | mamarley, why can't you? | 11:20 |
| ricotz | he is pretty responsive on irc | 11:20 |
| mamarley | Oh, he is on IRC? | 11:21 |
| ricotz | yes | 11:21 |
| ricotz | #nvidia | 11:22 |
| mamarley | Cool, thanks! | 11:22 |
