RAOFtjaalton: Good news, everyone!13:22
tjaaltonlibglvnd commit merged?-)13:24
RAOFtjaalton: Kindly drop the Mir EGL platform patch to mesa at your leisure.13:24
tjaaltonoh!13:24
tjaaltonnice13:24
tjaaltonI'll do that once the next rc/release arrives13:25
tjaaltonwhich is long overdue13:25
RAOFtjaalton: Also that. But that glvnd commit actually just means that EGL won't crash when trying to use Mir clients; it doesn't make Mir clients *work* :)13:25
tjaaltonha, ok13:27
tjaaltonRAOF: btw, do you mean all the patches, or just egl-platform-mir.patch?14:40
RAOFtjaalton: All the patches, yes. egl-platform-mir, egl-platform-rs, khr_platform_mir.14:59
tjaaltonok cool15:00
tjaaltonhmm after bionic we're able to sync mesa, who'd have thought :P15:41
tjaaltonnot that it actually gives anything, and "loses" history15:42
RAOFtseliot: Is nvidia/intel hybrid expected to work in Bionic now (or soon?). There's no obvious way to power down the nvidia card.17:52
tseliotRAOF: I am working on it right now. I am going to drop bbswitch in favour of nouveau + vgaswitcheroo. It works here, but it needs a little work17:53
tseliotso, soon ;)17:54
RAOFCooll, cool.17:55
RAOFWill that also work with the binary driver? I quite like full performance ;)17:55
tseliotRAOF: so, you will be using nvidia+intel by default, then you can type in "sudo prime-select intel", reboot, and you'll only have intel. Then "sudo prime-select nvidia", reboot, and nvidia will be back17:57
RAOFRad.17:59
RAOFI mean, it'd be nicer without the reboot, but just working fully again will do for now 😎17:59
tseliotRAOF: this is how it works: when you run "sudo prime-select intel", that will blacklist nvidia, then a systemd service will load nouveau if nvidia is not loaded, then nouveau makes it possible to use vgaswitcheroo, and a systemd service (or a udev rule) will switch off the iGPU17:59
tseliotRAOF: I'm really working around a bug in systemd: https://github.com/Witko/nvidia-xrun/issues/3218:00
tseliotplus GDM has no way to run scripts when you log out18:00
RAOFAh, yeah. That's not fixed?18:02
tseliotnot really18:03
RAOFDo you even need the vgaswitcheroo bit? As far as I can tell the nvidia driver appears to power down the card when it is unloaded.18:04
RAOFI guess if you've got a mux?18:05
tseliotRAOF: even then, I can't unload nvidia because of logind18:05
tseliotand no, no mux here18:05
RAOFRight.18:06
RAOFHuh. logind doesn't appear to be holding nvidia open here.18:09
RAOFBut Xorg is, and so is budgie-wm.18:09
RAOFAlthough I'm using lightdm.18:09
