[10:20] * Ng tried out VGA out for the first time yesterday. Wish I'd tried it earlier in the hardy cycle, because it gets a bit confused ;(
[10:21] <tjaalton> Ng: so you read the X300 review?
[10:21] <Ng> bryce: what kind of results did you get testing with the projector we forced you to smuggle? ;)
[10:21] <Ng> tjaalton: hmm?
[10:22] <Ng> bryce: I suspect the problems I had were because my LCD is widescreen and those projectors are 4:3
[10:22] <tjaalton> http://redmonk.com/sogrady/2008/04/22/the-x300-review-part-2-running-ubuntu-hardy/
[10:22] <Ng> heh, not seen that
[10:22] <tjaalton> the reviewer didn't test that
[10:23] <Ng> awsome
[10:24] <Ng> that review totally saves me from writing up my notes
[10:24] <Ng> since it links to my thinkwiki notes and alsa bug ;)
[10:25] <tjaalton> hehe :)
[10:40] <Ng> does the screen resolution tool allow for extended desktops btw?
[10:40] <Ng> unticking the clone option didn't seem to make a great deal of difference
[10:42] <tjaalton> I guess it should
[10:44] <jcristau> only with a big enough fb?
[10:45] <Ng> with what? ;)
[10:45] <Ng> let's pretend I'm a user with a mouse and not someone who's been writing xorg.conf files for a decade :)
[10:45] <Ng> because I'm really really bored of writing xorg.conf files ;)
[10:48] <Ng> which reminds me, I need to see if there's a bug filed about xorg not using the system keymap
[10:50] <tjaalton> yep, extending the desktop doesn't work here either (10x7)
[10:52] <tjaalton> but maybe compiz has something to do with it
[10:52] <Ng> hmm
[10:53] <jcristau> Ng: the framebuffer is allocated at xserver start, and can't be resized yet; so you need to set the size in xorg.conf if you want to be able to extend the desktop
[10:53] <tjaalton> ah right
[10:53] <tjaalton> so it's 10x7 by default
[10:53] <tjaalton> here..
[10:55] <Ng> jcristau: erk
[10:56] <Ng> in which case I'd say the clone output tickbox shouldn't be there
[10:57] <jcristau> (ideally the framebuffer could be resized, and would be per-crtc, so you wouldn't have that issue)
[10:58] <Ng> yeah, that would be awesome
[10:59] <tjaalton> WIP
[10:59] <tjaalton> :)
[10:59] <tjaalton> isn't that's what shatter is about?
[11:00] <tjaalton> er, the shatter-branch I mena
[11:00] <tjaalton> -an
[11:00] <Ng> also while I'm nitpicking, I thought the resolutions preferences tool wasn't seeing my VGA output, but actually it was underneath the box representing the LCD
[11:01] <tjaalton> Ng: same here.. shame on me that I didn't try it out before now :)
[11:01] <ubotu> New bug: #221793 in xorg (main) "Xorg does not follow system keymap" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/221793
[11:01] <Ng> tjaalton: yeah, I tried it for the first time yesterday when I was trying to put release bandwidth graphs on a projector in the office ;)
[11:01] <tjaalton> Ng: that bug needs input-hotplug
[11:01] <Ng> k
[11:02] <Ng> hey wait, why?
[11:02] <tjaalton> for keyboards I mean, and that's still shaky
[11:02] <Ng> there's a system keymap set
[11:02] <Ng> inherit that if there's no xorg.conf
[11:02] <tjaalton> distro specific
[11:03] <tjaalton> happens to be /etc/default/console-setup on ubuntu
[11:03] <tjaalton> ..the file that xserver-xorg postinst reads
[11:04] <Ng> yeah it generated an xorg.conf fine, but there seems to be a growing trend to ditch xorg.conf entirely
[11:04] <tjaalton> well, too bad for them :)
[11:04] <Ng> it's totally the future
[11:05] <Ng> I'd ditch mine if I could set emulatescrollwheel somewhere else
[11:05] <Ng> xorg could just check for some XKB environment variables and we could source console-setup in gdm's init script
[11:05] <tjaalton> I don't mind having a 1kb file lying around if everything works :)
[11:06] <Ng> but I don't see what the problem with it being distro specific is, we patch tons of stuff
[11:06] <Ng> (xorg included, if the package version is anything to go by)
[11:29] <tjaalton> it's just hard to do right
[11:29] <tjaalton> and it's preferred to have something that has "upstream approved" stamp on it
[11:32] <Ng> of course :)

[13:06] <james_w> Ng: is 220872 your issue with extended desktops?
[13:09] <Ng> james_w: quite possibly
[13:12] <Ng> I'm wondering if the scree nresolution thing can detect that the vfb isn't big enough to extend the desktop and either just refuse to offer it, or explain why
