| tjaalton | tseliot: will nvidia 340 stay in focal? the one risk I see is if there's no renamed hwe stack anymore it'd get removed once the abi is broken | 13:48 |
|---|---|---|
| tjaalton | when src:xorg-server is synced from a newer release | 13:50 |
| tseliot | tjaalton, new X abi means no nvidia-340. When are we going to get the new X ABI? | 13:53 |
| tjaalton | no idea | 13:58 |
| tjaalton | probably not before 20.10 | 13:59 |
| tjaalton | so maybe keep it as is and let people to freeze xserver at 1.20 if they need the legacy blob | 13:59 |
| tjaalton | even if xserver 20 would be released this month, I wouldn't put it in focal | 14:13 |
| tseliot | tjaalton, we need something to inform users. I don't want them to end up with a broken system if the try to install a new -hwe stack in 20.04, or in 18.04, for that matter | 14:39 |
| tjaalton | 18.04 won't change | 14:40 |
| tjaalton | as I said, there might not be a separate hwe stack | 14:41 |
| tjaalton | for focal | 14:41 |
| tseliot | tjaalton, oh, I missed that | 14:43 |
| tjaalton | but I'm not sure how to inform users in that case | 14:44 |
| tjaalton | besides, they might not notice if nouveau has improved | 14:44 |
| tjaalton | which it better had with a newer mesa | 14:44 |
| tjaalton | which already is a rolling update | 14:45 |
| tseliot | tjaalton, I think this needs a little planning with the desktop team | 14:54 |
| tseliot | (informing users) | 14:54 |
| tjaalton | sure, in six months :) | 14:54 |
| tjaalton | I mean, there's time | 14:54 |
| tjaalton | more than that in fact | 14:54 |
| tseliot | that's good | 15:16 |
