tarzeau | qemu is broken, i want local x, but it keeps telling me: Display 'gtk' is not available. (nor sdl) instead it wants freaking vnc | 11:34 |
---|---|---|
tarzeau | debian has it right with 4.1-3 but focal still has 4.0+dfsg-0ubuntu10 :( | 11:35 |
tarzeau | should i file an lp bug? | 11:35 |
cpaelzer | sdl was removed, gtk should be available | 11:43 |
cpaelzer | but gtk is an extension (to avoid pulling in too much dependencies) | 11:44 |
cpaelzer | have you insatlled the package (... checks what the name is ...) | 11:44 |
cpaelzer | "qemu-system-gui" | 11:44 |
cpaelzer | tarzeau: ^^ ? | 11:44 |
tarzeau | cpaelzer: thanks, after installing that it works :) | 11:46 |
cpaelzer | great | 11:46 |
cpaelzer | also a newer qemu will come once 4.2 is available | 11:46 |
cpaelzer | well after christmas break I guess | 11:46 |
tarzeau | any reason to skip archive sync of 4.1 from debian? | 11:46 |
cpaelzer | interim updates usually only make a very very small amount of people happy but break many places that rely on virtualization for testing | 11:47 |
cpaelzer | so I try to merge it once per cycle and that is then on the planned target version of the release | 11:47 |
cpaelzer | after that only bug fixes | 11:47 |
cpaelzer | no major version change | 11:47 |
tarzeau | i see | 11:49 |
cpaelzer | tarzeau: also Debian has --disable-sdl as well | 11:49 |
tarzeau | i like sdl, certainly more than vnc or gtk | 11:49 |
cpaelzer | sdl1 becomes more an more a gigantic dept to maintain and sdl2 had way too mcuh issues | 11:50 |
tarzeau | i've never had issues with either version | 11:50 |
cpaelzer | me neither, but a reasonable number of bugs pointed at Debian/Ubuntu had | 11:50 |
tarzeau | debian import freeze 27th feb 2020, what if i got stuff stuck in debian new queue, but i'd like to see them with ubuntu 2020 lts? | 11:51 |
ubottu | Ubuntu bug 3007 in Launchpad itself "duplicate for #2020 "Currently Published Elsewhere" pointer to the other string" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/3007 | 11:51 |
cpaelzer | tarzeau: once you think you'll stay stuck you should try to hit Ubuntus new queue with an upload of the same | 11:52 |
cpaelzer | and have a bug to discuss this with the archive admins | 11:52 |
tarzeau | i'm not a canonical/ubuntu employee, i doubt i can upload anything to that queue you mean | 11:53 |
cpaelzer | but our freezes aren't mcuh different IIRC | 11:53 |
tarzeau | but i can point relevant people to my source packages? | 11:53 |
cpaelzer | Feb 27th https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FocalFossa/ReleaseSchedule | 11:53 |
cpaelzer | as I said not too mcuh gain by that | 11:54 |
tarzeau | i meant ubuntu import freeze of course | 11:54 |
tarzeau | ok thanks | 11:54 |
Odd_Bloke | Hey folks, I just did a `sudo apt install nvidia-driver-440` and rebooted, and my system has come back up still using the nouveau driver. Does anyone know how I can debug why that's happened? | 15:52 |
lotuspsychje | Odd_Bloke: wich graphics card chipet please? | 15:53 |
Odd_Bloke | lotuspsychje: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/vTsZRr4wdT/ | 15:54 |
Odd_Bloke | (`ubuntu-drivers devices`) | 15:54 |
lotuspsychje | big RTX card might need the latest driver from the ubuntu graphics ppa Odd_Bloke | 15:54 |
Odd_Bloke | I was successfully running the drivers from the archive previously; I removed them because I was seeing kernel panics and was working on debugging those. | 15:56 |
Odd_Bloke | Oh, looks like the modules just weren't installed for my running kernel. | 15:59 |
Odd_Bloke | That would explain it. :p | 15:59 |
Odd_Bloke | OK, now I'm seeing this in dmesg: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/zD25HQGyY7/ | 16:05 |
lotuspsychje | wich driver version are you getting that warning? | 16:06 |
Odd_Bloke | lotuspsychje: 440 | 16:17 |
