tjaalton    xfree86: add default modes for 16:9 and 16:1016:09
ricotzlooks like something which would fix this16:11
tjaaltoncan you test?16:13
tjaaltonit could be proposed for 1.19.716:13

ricotztrying16:16
ricotzafter building it ;)16:17
mamarleytjaalton: I noticed you have uploaded an apparently glvnd-enabled mesa to bionic-proposed.  Are updated NVIDIA drivers coming soon?  What does the GPU drivers team need to do?16:24
tseliotmamarley: yes16:30
tseliotthey are almost ready16:30
mamarleyCool!16:30
ricotztjaalton, it does what I wanted :)16:31
tjaaltonmamarley: right, ppa:canonical-x/testing has a preliminary version, but there are at least some conflicts left and other cruft that tseliot is working on still16:38
tjaaltonone thing that i don't understand how fedora is handling it is that they ship libGLX_indirect.so.0 symlink in both mesa and negativo nvidia rpms16:39
tjaaltonwithout any mechanism for it that I could see16:40
tjaaltonricotz: which hw btw?16:42
tjaaltonassuming intel with modesetting..16:48
ricotztjaalton, yes, skylake iris 54016:54
tjaaltonrighy, so it's one of the regressions when we did the switch16:55
alkisgHi! In 18.04, will it be possible to install the nvidia drivers in a template installation that is used by many clients, without having bad effects to clients that don't have nvidia?17:35
