[08:11] <ubotu> New bug: #185279 in xorg-server (main) "Xorg segfaults on startup" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/185279
[09:28] <bryce_> morning
[09:30] <tjaalton> morning
[10:06] <tjaalton> lrm uploaded.. found a minor bug 1min after upload :P
[10:06] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 1 in ubuntu "Microsoft has a majority market share" [Critical,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1
[10:06] <tjaalton> hehe
[10:13] <bryce_> tjaalton: *grin*
[10:13] <bryce_> tjaalton: does this include the latest fglrx? I think mvo was interested in testing if so
[10:13] <bryce_> tjaalton: and latest nvidia?
[10:14] <mvo> texture_from_pixmap!
[10:14] <tjaalton> yes, both
[10:14] <tjaalton> please test :)
[10:15] <tjaalton> it also adds a convenience package fglrx-amdcccle, which should help people updating from debs created by the ati installer
[10:16] <tjaalton> but that package will end up in the NEW queue, and keep this new version from entering the archive
[10:16] <tjaalton> until it's accepted of course

[10:23] <tjaalton> mvo: did you notice my question about bug 184212 yesterday?
[10:23] <ubotu> Launchpad bug 184212 in linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 "package nvidia-glx-new 169.07+2.6.24.4-4.11 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 2" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/184212
[10:24] <tjaalton> mvo: could it be a bug in synaptic?
[10:25] <mvo> tjaalton: no
[10:25] <mvo> tjaalton: :P
[10:25] <mvo> tjaalton: maybe, let me have a look, but its unlikely
[10:26] <tjaalton> ok, thanks :)
[10:36] <mvo> tjaalton: I don't think that its a synaptic/apt bug, the log says:

[10:37] <tjaalton> but the file is there..
[10:38] <mvo> the log is from 2008-01-18
[10:38] <mvo> the ls -l is:

[10:38] <bryce_> mesa?
[10:38] <mvo> so both files are last touched 21.01
[10:39] <tjaalton> hmm
[10:39] <mvo> maybe he tinkered in between?
[10:39] <tjaalton> maybe the installed some 3rd party version then
[10:39] <tjaalton> I just tried removing it on amd64 and it worked just fine
[10:40] <tjaalton> *they
[10:40] <mvo> yeah, I was wondering if he might have used something like envy
[10:43] <tjaalton> doesn't envy use the same version numbers as the official ones? the "Title" says that the package he tried to remove was 169.07+2.6.24.4-4.11
[10:43] <tjaalton> er, version

[11:09] <jcristau> hmm #185311 is a bit worrying
[11:15] <tjaalton> jcristau: yeah, I'll forward that upstream..

[18:21] <Q-FUNK> any FAQ on properly using displayconfig-gtk ?
[18:23] <bryce_> Q-FUNK: I posted your patches for xserver for testing
[18:23] <Q-FUNK> bryce_: yes, thanks, I noticed :)
[18:24] <Q-FUNK> I'm currently trying to debug my laptop. my initial run of displayconfig-gtk messed up my default mode.
[18:26] <Q-FUNK> is there any way to reset that to whatever was detected at installation time?
[18:30] <tjaalton> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[18:50] <Q-FUNK> pretty amazing the amount of damage displayconfig-gtk can accomplish
[18:50] <Q-FUNK> it managed to really mess up the content of my gnome panels
[18:51] <Q-FUNK> I wonder how I can selectively restore the content of the panels to defualt values
[19:01] <tjaalton> they get confused without d-g
[19:02] <tjaalton> as they did on my laptop occasionally
[19:02] <tjaalton> *do
[19:23] <Q-FUNK> tjaalton: it seems to have mostly restored-g ?
[19:40] <Q-FUNK> tjaalton: erm, sorry, d-g ?
[19:41] <tjaalton> some fullscreen GL games do that too
[19:46] <Q-FUNK> tjaalton: found any way to restore the panel to defaults?
[19:51] <tjaalton> nope.. just unlock and drag them :P
[19:56] <Q-FUNK> argh
[21:06] <ubotu> New bug: #185335 in xserver-xgl (universe) "The shadows of the windows do not show correctly (Intel GMA X3100) (dup-of: 175774)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/185335
[22:40] <Q-FUNK> the list of modules loaded is no longer defined in xorg.conf since 1.3 ?
[22:43] <Q-FUNK> somehow, dpkg-reconfigure server-xorg produced a config that reuslts in much slower performance than before the displayconfig-gtk mess
