| [09:37] <munckfish> Hi, I have a patch which re-enables fullscreen mode in Java on Xorg server 1.3+. | |
| [09:37] <munckfish> Although the freeze is on Hardy, I wondered if it was likely that I'd get it in to the openjdk package at this stage | |
| [09:38] <munckfish> I'm a bit short of time this month but if it's likely to get included, I'll try to find time to add it in. | |
| [09:38] <munckfish> Patch is on upstream java2d mailing list attached to this post: | |
| [09:39] <munckfish> http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/2d-dev/2008-January/000129.html | |
| [09:41] <munckfish> The stuff about mouse problems can be safely ignore - they went away once I stopped using the Gutsy LiveCD and updated xorg | |
| [09:44] <munckfish> anyway, tdv (Dmitri T) has been testing it and seems happy with it | |
| [09:46] <munckfish> It fixes https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sun-java6/+bug/154613 | |
| [09:47] <munckfish> doko: you're the current maintainer right? | |
| [09:56] <doko> munckfish: thanks, could you close the report for openjdk? I think it is `wontfix' for icedtea in gutsy unless somebody adds a patch and starts the sru process for gutsy | |
| [09:57] <doko> ahh, you already did write this =) | |
| [10:05] <munckfish> umm | |
| [10:05] <munckfish> Hi doko, what do you mean close for openjdk? | |
| [10:05] <munckfish> I hadn't got around to connecting that bug | |
| [10:05] <munckfish> to the new openjdk package source in LP | |
| [10:05] <munckfish> :) I was just trying to remember how to connect it | |
| [10:06] <munckfish> Yes I don't think it's worth worry about IcedTea/gutsy | |
| [10:06] <munckfish> at the moment | |
| [10:49] <munckfish> doko: I don't have perms to set "Won't Fix" for IcedTea | |
| [10:51] <munckfish> doko: let me know what you want to do (or not) about it. Cheers | |
| [11:59] <Mez> doko, I guess you got it sorted then ? :P | |
| [13:02] <doko> munckfish: done | |
| [13:04] <doko> munckfish: ohh, didn't reload the page, if you do want to backport that, then maybe I should reopen the report | |
| [13:04] <munckfish> Hi doko | |
| [13:05] <munckfish> I'm not bothered about backporting | |
| [13:05] <munckfish> I'm running against a custom openjdk build on gutsy | |
| [13:05] <munckfish> I'll be upgrading immediately on hardy release | |
| [13:05] <munckfish> so lets wait and see if anyone wants the backport | |
| [13:06] <doko> munckfish: is the patch technically accepted by upstream? | |
| [13:06] <munckfish> I believe so | |
| [13:06] <munckfish> Dmitri had tested on hardy himself | |
| [13:07] <munckfish> I think the only thing outstanding for him was testing on solaris | |
| [13:07] <doko> ok, I'll try to get it in | |
| [13:07] <munckfish> I'll find you the relevant mail | |
| [13:07] <munckfish> so you can be sure | |
| [13:08] <munckfish> http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/2d-dev/2008-February/000147.html | |
| [13:08] <munckfish> He's been 'preparing' it for inclusion for a wee while now | |
| [13:08] <munckfish> but in the mail he advocates passing it to Icedtea project | |
| [13:10] <munckfish> doko: on the way I've checked with various people including Xorg f | |
| [13:10] <munckfish> Xorg folk | |
| [13:10] <munckfish> and this seems to be the correct approach for post 1.3 X servers | |
| [13:10] <doko> ok | |
| [13:11] <munckfish> Do you recommend I open a bug on IcedTea bugzilla and then make noise on a mailing list? | |
| [13:12] <munckfish> To be honest there's so many different lists and trackers I wasn't quite sure how best to efficiently advance the patch | |
| [13:12] <munckfish> down from upstream | |
| [13:12] <munckfish> : | |
| [13:12] <munckfish> :( | |
| [13:15] <munckfish> doko: thanks for for considering it. Let me know if you run out of time and need me to make up a debdiff or something | |
| [13:18] <doko> munckfish: a ChangeLog entry would be nice =) | |
| [13:19] <munckfish> Aha ok | |
| [13:19] <munckfish> Shall I attach it to the bug? | |
| [13:22] <doko> sure, or paste it here | |
| [13:24] <munckfish> doko: how about this: | |
| [13:25] <munckfish> * Make Java Full Screen Exclusive Mode work again with Xorg Server 1.3 and above. LP: #154613 (Java bug 6636469). | |
| [13:25] <munckfish> Or do you want more detail? | |
| [13:26] <doko> ok | |
| [13:30] <munckfish> doko: do you need anything else from me now? If not I'll be away for about an hour then I'll be avail to assist again. | |
| [13:34] <doko> munckfish: no, won't do that now. | |
| [13:34] <munckfish> doko: thx speak later | |
