[07:22] <ricotz> mamarley, still there?
[08:55] <ricotz> mamarley, copied 340 and 378, but needed to fix 340.102-0ubuntu0~gpu17.04.2
[09:17] <ricotz> tseliot, tarballs for 304, 340, 375 and 378 are in the ppa (304 soon)
[09:39] <tseliot> ricotz: ok, thanks
[09:40] <tseliot> ricotz: BTW do the new drivers support 4.10?
[09:51] <tseliot> ricotz: never mind, 375 sure doesn't
[11:20] <mamarley> ricotz: I'm sorry.  What did I mess up so I can watch out for that in the future?
[11:21] <mamarley> tseliot: Nope, but curiously both the 378 and 340 releases did make changes to reduce the size of the 4.10 patches.
[11:22] <mamarley> ricotz: I also have nvidia-settings, though I will need to upload the xenial package directly because of a version-number screwup I made in my staging PPA.
[11:24] <ricotz> mamarley, you simply uncommented the wrong line https://launchpadlibrarian.net/306441551/nvidia-graphics-drivers-340_340.102-0ubuntu0~gpu17.04.1_340.102-0ubuntu0~gpu17.04.2.diff.gz
[11:25] <mamarley> Oops, sorry.
[11:25] <mamarley> Yesterday seemed to be a mistake-happy day for me.  I ended up catching most of them, but that one slipped through.
[11:26] <ricotz> mamarley, what is up the nvidia-settings xenial package again?
[11:28] <mamarley> My initial attempt FTBFSed because I tried to update it from the nvidia-settings package in the Xenial repository instead of the last one I had packaged.  The failure was because they changed how stripping was handled since then.  I looked at the diff between Xenial and Yakkety and discovered that the only difference was that in Yakkety and up it was compiled on more architectures, so I decided to just use the Yakkety package on Xenial too.  
[11:28] <mamarley> However, I screwed up the version number by making it higher than I intended.  I deleted that upload but it still wouldn't let me upload the proper version.
[11:31] <ricotz> mamarley, I see, ok
[12:31] <tseliot> ricotz, mamarley: my patch for 4.10 works well. I can't really test CPU hotplug here though. At least it builds and works on my testing box
[12:32] <tseliot> it's a bit of a corner case, anyway
[12:33] <tseliot> all tested with my GEFORCE GTX 1080 :)
[12:36] <tseliot> I've also noticed that they dropped support for my laptop's GPU in the transition from 367 to 375
[13:13] <mamarley> Really, which GPU is that?
[13:54] <mamarley> tseliot: Is the patch available anywhere yet?
[14:44] <tseliot> mamarley: I'm going to upload today, so you should be able to see all the patches soon (I have to fix up the legacy drivers too)
[14:44] <mamarley> OK
[14:58] <ricotz> tseliot, hmm, with your latop's gpu support, are there known plans to drop older series again aka introducing a new legacy branch?
[15:02] <tseliot> ricotz: I don't think so
[15:05] <tseliot> and I'm not sure what to do with the stable Ubuntu releases. If I migrate users to either 340 or to 375, somebody is still going to end up with a broken system
[15:15] <tseliot> ricotz, mamarley: so the two legacy drivers support the new X ABI while 375 doesn't...
[15:15] <mamarley> Really‽  That's odd.
[15:17] <mamarley> Are you sure?  Now that I think about it again, I'm pretty sure I ran 375 with my own build of xserver-xorg 1.19 for a while.
[15:17] <tseliot> mamarley: they didn't mention the new ABI in the release notes
[15:18] <mamarley> But I think it was added a few releases back.  Even for 304 and 340, the new ABI was supported in the previous release.  They just forgot to update the release notes for those.
[15:19] <tseliot> mamarley: you're right: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/111596/en-us
[15:21] <tseliot> oh, and I had already added support for that in the package. My memory is really bad
[15:22] <tseliot> I think they broke the ABI again, though
[15:29] <mamarley> The X people did?  I know they broke it again for 1.20, but there is no point in worrying about that yet.
[15:41] <tseliot> yes, no need to worry at this point, I think
[17:38] <tseliot> ricotz, mamarley: I have just uploaded all the drivers in zesty. Please give it some testing. While my desktop works, my laptop is acting up (in general) with 4.10
[17:40] <mamarley> tseliot: OK, I will try.  You are saying you think it is 4.10 and not the driver causing your laptop problems?
[17:40] <tseliot> mamarley: yes, even the network dies
[17:40] <mamarley> I have been running 4.10 on both my laptops and my desktop for a few weeks now without issues.  I'm sorry you are having problems.
[17:41] <tseliot> it works fine on the desktop
[17:43] <mamarley> When you say all the drivers, does that include 378 too?
[17:43] <tseliot> 375, 340, and 304
[17:43] <mamarley> OK.
[17:43] <tseliot> i.e. all the drivers that we support in Ubuntu
