[06:38] <Daviey> Would it be possible to revert upstream commit 6427f7995338387ddded92f98adec19ddbf0ae5e ?
[09:02] <soren> Daviey: Why? (I can't do anything about it, I'm just curious.)
=== doko_ is now known as doko
=== n0u_ is now known as n0u
[12:19] <C10uD> hello there
[12:19] <C10uD> anyone using frequency scaling? :)
[12:19] <C10uD> uhm, i'll get straight to the facts: i basically just want to blacklist some frequencies
[12:19] <C10uD> but i can't find how to do it
[12:21] <C10uD> i know how to set a minimal frequency but i can't find how to skip "intermediate" ones
=== fdd-0 is now known as fdd
[17:44] <AnAnt_> Hello, is there any further info that I should add to bug 281451 ?
[17:51] <BenC> bug #281451
[17:51] * BenC wonders where ubotu is
[17:55] <BenC> AnAnt_: more than likely, there's not much we can do
[17:56] <BenC> AnAnt_: some vendors just don't add all the proper vga modes to the vga bios that the card supports
[17:58] <BenC> I'm not even sure that 1280x800 is a vga mode
[18:00] <AnAnt_> hmmm, ok
[18:12] <AnAnt_> BenC: yes I think it is a vga mode, on a laptop that got an Intel graphical adapter, hwinfo --framebuffer does report 1280x800 vga mode
[18:16] <AnAnt_> why can't nvidia & nvidiafb be used at the same time ?
[18:16] <mjg59> Because both claim the PCI device
[18:17] <BenC> AnAnt_: thing is, vesafb and uvesafb only handle what the bios explains to it
[18:17] <AnAnt_> I see
[18:18] <BenC> AnAnt_: I've noticed that nvidia and ati seem to skimp on the vga bios stuff, relying on people to have the accelerated drivers to do anything useful
[18:18] <AnAnt_> lousy cards !!
[18:23] <AnAnt_> thanks anyways
