[14:04] any ideas? [14:05] alan_g: camako ^ [14:05] kgunn, what does this mean: pci id for fd 7: 1013:00b8, driver (null) [14:06] it is just before the error, and after selecting the driver [14:06] no idea :) [14:07] but maybe one of these guys will [14:07] oh... anpok_ is on... ^^ [14:11] I've just installed the overlay, let's see what happens [14:16] kgunn: well, the "Failed to get frontbuffer" error comes from the kms driver: it's failing to get a buffer for compositing to. But that doesn't tell us why [14:21] kgunn, I did what you said, added the ppa, then sudo apt update and dist-upgrade, rebooted but lightdm doesn't have the unity8 entry [14:22] daniele_: right...you have to do one more step, sudo apt-get install unity8-desktop-session-mir [14:22] then you should prolly reboot [14:23] unity8-desktop-session-mir : Depends on: unity8-desktop-session (>= 1.0.13) but is not going to be installed [14:23] I think something went wrong [14:23] what driver is that? [14:25] ah qemu [14:25] switch model from VGA to QXL [14:26] in virt-manager? [14:26] yes [14:27] I can't find this option [14:29] hm there should be a video section .. in which you can switch the model [14:30] daniele_: click the little information icon.... [14:30] i think it brings up a panel with all those options...then you can click on video/gfx [14:30] ok found it [14:30] it was set to cirrus [14:31] it works now! [14:32] thank you === dandrader is now known as dandrader|afk === vigo|lunch is now known as vigo [15:04] daniele_: great! if you have more questions let us know.... [15:04] would love to hear if you have a specific application you're chasing [15:16] kgunn, I am not sure if you've gotten to the bottom of dslul's problem, but the "pci id for fd 7: 1013:00b8, driver (null)" is coming from the Mesa driver. [15:17] It's not finding the correct dri backend [15:19] It's not related to Mir, but rather the setup... I think it has to do with mixing a new Mesa with an old(er) distro... Like Mesa 13.0.x vs Xenial... [15:22] camako, I have mesa 12, we already solved the problem, it was a misconfiguration in virt-manager [15:23] kgunn, nothing serious for now, but I worked in IoT and wanted to hack some code in case I needed it in the future [15:25] glad we solved that too...i'll know if someone else asks [15:28] maybe you can write it in the tutorial https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/snappy/guides/mir-snaps/ [15:29] btw, it would be great to have support for raspberry pi 2/3, since they are pretty common and cheap === dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader === dandrader is now known as dandrader|afk === dandrader|afk is now known as dandrader === JanC_ is now known as JanC
