tjaaltonRAOF: hi, my unity8 session still just shows a blank screen, so can't test my mir egl patch refresh on new mesa.. any ideas how to get it work?09:04
tjaaltonjcastro: yeah, it doesn't need much actually. with some packaging changes it can use older llvm and libclc, but backporting those too isn't hard09:05
tjaaltonjcastro: and then there's libdrm of course09:05
tjaaltonjcastro: 16.10 has all that's needed though, backports needed only for 160409:05
tseliotmamarley: hi. Today I am going to fix up the nvidia drivers in zesty so that they build with the new kernel.11:33
mamarleytseliot: Cool, thanks!  I already have 367 and 370 patched in the graphics-drivers PPA if you want to use those, and 375 doesn't need a patch.11:34
tseliotmamarley: great, I'll have a look at those patches :)11:34
tseliotand focus on 34011:34
mamarleyThey are both exactly the same :)11:34

tseliotmamarley: can you point me to the error you faced with 304, please? It might save some time14:13
mamarleyOne sec…14:14
mamarleytseliot: It is the same issue experienced by "ejmarkow" in https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/973807/linux/nvidia-linux-x86_64-340-98-driver-not-building-with-kernel-4-9-0-rc2-/ .14:15
tseliotmamarley: ok, thanks14:16
ricotz304 or 34014:17
mamarleyricotz: 340, though I haven't tested 304 so it may have the same problem too.14:18
mamarleyIt looked like it might be trying to initialize the driver twice so I checked to see why that might be happening, but I don't know enough about kernel module programming so I couldn't figure anything out.14:19
mamarleyI have found that the Mesa 13.0.1 from the xorg-edgers PPA fixes the resource leaks and subsequent lagging caused by animated tray icons in KDE Plasma 5 while using the modesetting driver and Glamor.  This is nice, now I don't have to restart Plasma a bunch anymore!16:57
