Bug#675138: weston: not installable, fails to build from source
twied (30/05/2012): > Dear Maintainer, > package weston (0.85.0-1) is currently uninstallable due to a depend > (=0.85.0-1) on libwayland0. This depend should read (=0.85.0-2) or (>= > 0.85.0-1). > > The package also fails to build from source, some libpng12 vs. > libpng15 issues. See > https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=weston&suite=experimental Yep, thanks for the heads-up on IRC by the way. Since binNMUs dramatically failed due to yet another libpng mess, I'm pondering just uploading weston to unstable instead, but I'd have to see which toy apps to enable and how. That might take some days as it's low priority on my todo list. Mraw, KiBi. signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Make your own xorg.conf and remove ati. > You'll sacrifice auto config but whatever is more important to you. :-) The problem is, I still do not see why the small changes I propose would not work, and thus I don't see the need for whatever sacrifice of the auto config feature. If there are any arguments that I missed against lowering the Depends of ati against those drivers it knows how to wrap (and I am not saying there can be no reason, I only have a radeon to test - I'm just pointing to the lack of arguments, whereas I did my best to find arguments for my proposal), I'd be glad to see them before I send a patch...

Please rather use the attached patch actually: just like on Linux (e.g. on my laptop actually), it does not disable i/o access, otherwise several opens and then fewer closes would not leave i/o access enabled.

Pretty frozen at this point, no keyboard, only reset button helps, but I do get network response - there is ping, initial ssh response but nothing more, can't actually log in. Hm. Might be possible to get a log with netconsole[1]. [1] http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/netconsole.txt http://blog.mraw.org/2010/11/08/Debugging_using_netconsole/ Tried this again and this time I got a total hang again. Then I got it to work with the config file so I first tried fbdev and it worked, then when I switched to nouveau I got again this situation that it's pretty much hung but with ping. SSH does respond with failed authentication when it's the wrong password, but no successful login is possible. I'm gonna study netconsole now, let's see if I can figure it out. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?

Do I understand correctly that the system works fine until X starts (e.g., if you use the "text" kernel command line option)? Yes. As long as X doesn't start it seems rock solid. Does X with the fbdev driver work? (You can test by putting the following in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.) Section "Device" Identifier "geforce" Driver "fbdev" EndSection Yes. This does work. BTW driver "vesa" hangs the same. Does starting X with the nouveau driver work if you do not start a GNOME session? (You can test by running "startx xterm" if the xinit package is installed.) Interesting. Still working on this one. startx was complaining something about xorg.conf so I just renamed it, and then it started up.

Thanks for a clear report. Hope that helps, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-x-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
