[03:03] Hi, will siliconmotion support be removed for 20.04? [03:23] !info siliconmotion [03:23] Package siliconmotion does not exist in focal [03:23] !info silicon-motion [03:23] Package silicon-motion does not exist in focal [03:23] Oh, its name is xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion [03:25] It seems that both it and evdev are going to be removed? At least this is what the bug #1772588 implies [03:25] bug 1772588 in xserver-xorg-video-ast (Ubuntu) "Remove obsolete X11 drivers from the archive" [Undecided,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1772588 [03:32] I am worried: abandoning evdev would make some touchscreens stop working, as libinput does not support those. Abandoning siliconmotion would make certain multiseat configurations stop working, making, for example, some laboratories with 8 computers for 22 seats require buying additional 14 computers to replace what is going to stop working [03:33] !info xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion [03:33] xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion (source: xserver-xorg-video-siliconmotion): X.Org X server -- SiliconMotion display driver. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:1.7.9-2ubuntu2 (focal), package size 47 kB, installed size 144 kB [03:33] it's in focal [03:34] for now [03:34] Right now it is, but I'm not sure it's going to be kept [03:34] plan seems to be to remove from debian and then remove from ubuntu once that's done. i'm not seeing a bug in debian for removing it tho so idk what the status is [03:34] FurretUber: you have the bug report link -- speak up there [08:28] found a new bug on 20.04 feel free to reproduce bug #1851790 [08:28] bug 1851790 in cheese (Ubuntu) "Cheese webcam image dropping at random launch" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1851790 [09:01] lotuspsychje: you're well ahead of the game, 20.04 testing already!
