Check whether it is legally allowed and technically possible to
auto-build the package;

I suppose it's okay for the autobuilders.  There was never a problem
with licensing, but #383465 alleged 'obfuscated source code', and I 
agree.


I've added the XS-Autobuild flag, but I'm not uploading yet to avoid
interfering with
the transition.

nonf...@release.debian.org : the package can legitimately and
technically be auto-built,
explanation by Steven is quoted above.


Added to the whitelist.

Re: Graphical installer for s390(x)?!

Cyril,

am Sun, May 20, 2012 at 01:18:39AM +0200 hast du folgendes geschrieben:
 Given we have both of them on s390, I guess having both in sync (either
 way) is the way to go. Please tell me what you prefer.

I don't think we need xserver udebs at this point.

 (Looking at current debian-installer.git, I see no g-i image at all
 for s390* anyway. But who am I to know? ;))

Yeah, there's no such thing as g-i.  Theoretically there could be in the
future, if I understand it correctly, by using kvm on s390x.  Because that
would give you some sort of framebuffer.  But with native hardware: no
graphics.  (Unless g-i would support some sort of network-console with VNC.
But that would entail a huge initrd I presume.)

Bug#572001: xserver-xorg-video-radeon: Display corruption with kernel 2.6.33

 Tried 2.6.34-rc3 for an hour or so yesterday and could no longer reproduce

 As soon as 2.3.34 gets released I will try again but it looks promising.

I was able to work normally under 2.6.34-rc4.  However I tried to watch a
movie through the GL driver of mplayer and the screen decayed shortly after
again.

So KMS is more, but still not entirely stable.

  Eh? It might also be an error in xserver-xorg-video-radeon. And given the 
  fact that there is no 2.6.33 packagage atm, where else should I report?
 2.6.33 is actually in experimental now :)

I can confirm this behaviour on 2.6.33-2-amd64 from experimental.  I did not
test KMS on 2.6.32 yet, though.  Also Z61m, also X1400.  Screen decays
(without using OpenGL at all!) pretty much randomly but quickly after startup
with a simple Gnome session (with metacity, not mutter or something else
compositing-ish).  It looks that the screen refresh is totally missing after
that lockup.  Without KMS, X is working correctly.

 We generally go with the latest version at the time of freeze and then
 build a kernel module package that is compatible. Other than that is
 there something else you are asking about? 

You mean regardless of 9 RC bugs opened against the package?  That even
sounds like please force the newest upstream versions into squeeze
regardless of any packaging bugs, or do you want to release with the current
version in testing?

Kind regards,
Philipp Kern

Bug#540317: libcompizconfig0: Uninstalable due to libprotobuf3 removal

 libprotobuf3 has been removed.
 So libcompizconfig0 (and the whole compiz stack) is uninstalable.

I've scheduled binNMUs for this package now.  (Seems to be the only
rdep of libprotobuf3 apart from protobuf itself.)

Iustin, as you have rdeps now on that library, please notify -release
on a transition next time.  Thanks.

Kind regards,

Re: [SRM] xorg and xorg-server update for lenny

 the workaround put in xorg-server for 5.0.1 didn't fix the problem on

 instead.
 
 The xorg-server update would:
 - remove the patch added in r1
 - cherry-pick a patch to fix the idletime xsync timer (see
   http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/gnome-session/news/20090521T093223Z.html

 I'm not attaching the patch here, it's in git, branch debian-lenny, for
 those who care.

ACK.

Bug#444853: Crashes on time step

2007-10-01 Thread Philipp Kern
Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.1.0-19
Severity: normal

Dear X strike force,

we have one computer which is unable to keep the correct time due to
some incompatibility to the nforce chipset used (running a self-compiled
kernel derived from 2.6.20-3).

Whenever the time gets stepped (mostly backwards by ntpd because the
time is running too fast, but also when trying date) the xserver
suddently crashes. This is on Debian Etch. I am unable to debug this
issue because gdb does funny things. It was more likely to crash when
run as a user from kdm/startx, but even as root running on gdb it
segfaulted after some playing with the time.

Kind regards,
Philipp Kern
