[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1488254] Re: clang++ no longer ABI-compatible with g++

2016-07-05 Thread Christian Convey
Hi guys,

Anyone know when we might see this fix make it into Ubuntu 16.04's
official repos?  I'm doing some app development that's hindered by this
bug.

(If there's a better forum for this question, I'd be grateful for a
redirect.)

Thanks very much,
Christian

Title:
  clang++ no longer ABI-compatible with g++

Status in LLVM:
  Confirmed
Status in llvm-toolchain-3.6 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  $ cat foo.cc
  #include 
  std::string hello = "Hello, world!\n";
  $ cat bar.cc
  #include 
  #include 
  extern std::string hello;
  int main() {
  std::cout << hello;
  return 0;
  }

  Hello, world!
  $ clang++ -c foo.cc && clang++ foo.o bar.cc && ./a.out
  Hello, world!
  $ g++ -c foo.cc && clang++ foo.o bar.cc && ./a.out
  /tmp/bar-34fb23.o: In function `main':
  bar.cc:(.text+0x14): undefined reference to `hello'
  clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see 
invocation)
  $ clang++ -c foo.cc && g++ foo.o bar.cc && ./a.out
  /tmp/ccqU38Mh.o: In function `main':
  bar.cc:(.text+0x5): undefined reference to `hello[abi:cxx11]'
  collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

  In practice, this means that many programs using C++ libraries other
  than libstdc++ fail to compile with clang++. For example, mosh fails
  with undefined references to
  google::protobuf::internal::empty_string_,
  google::protobuf::MessageLite::InitializationErrorString() const, and
  google::protobuf::MessageLite::SerializeAsString() const.

2012-11-02 Thread Christian Convey
Please note that the WORKAROUND of using the
https://launchpad.net/~makson96/+archive/fglrx PPA is imperfect,
because it places the "AMD Unsupported hardware" watermark on the
bottom-right corner of the screen.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1059655] Re: 1002:94a3 fglrx doesn't support ATI FirePro M7740 chip

2012-11-02 Thread Christian Convey
After purging the old PPA, and setting up Nick Andrick's PPA, I tried
installing the "fglrx-installer" package.  However, no such package
was available.  So I guessed and installed the "fglrx" package.  The
installation went smoothly, but upon rebooting my system, I don't
think Nick's package's driver is in effect.  I have no AMD
"Unsupported hardware" watermark on my screen, and the output from
running "glxinfo" suggests I have no OpenGL functionality.

Next, I uninstalled the "fglrx" package, and installed
"fglrx-updates", version 2:9.010-0ubuntu1~andrik5.  Upon rebooting, I
had the same experience as I got with the "fglrx" package, as
described above.

  1002:94a3 fglrx doesn't support ATI FirePro M7740 chip

Status in “fglrx-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The "fgrlx" package now installs successfully for me.  However, I
  believe it's  not recognizing my chip, the ATI FirePro M7740.  This is
  the chip that Dell uses in the Precision M6500 laptop from about 3
  years ago.

  I have a few reasons for thinking fglrx isn't doing its job for this
  chip:

  (1) When I run "fglrxinfo", I get the following output:

  cjc@awesome:~$ fglrxinfo
  X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such 
operation)
    Major opcode of failed request:  153 (GLX)
    Minor opcode of failed request:  19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
    Serial number of failed request:  12
    Current serial number in output stream:  12

  (2) When I run "amdcccle", I get a dialog box with this message:

  There was a problem initializing Catalyst Control Center Linux
  edition.  It could be caused by the following.

  No AMD graphics driver is installed, or the AMD driver is not functioning 
properly.
  Please install the AMD driver appropriate for you AMD hardware, or configure 
using aticonfig.

  (3) When I run "aticonfig", I get this message:

  aticonfig: No supported adapters detected

  WORKAROUND: In Quantal 64-bit use the PPA
  https://launchpad.net/~makson96/+archive/fglrx .

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1059655] Re: 1002:94a3 fglrx doesn't support ATI FirePro M7740 chip

2012-10-29 Thread Christian Convey
I don't presently have Precise installed, but I'm near 100% that the
installer did NOT work under Precise.

When I used the official Ubuntu GUI for closed-source drivers, I would
be told the installation failed, although no reason was given to me.

When I used the AMD-provided installer scripts, IIRC the later
versions of those scripts installed, but then when I ran "aticonfig
--initial" I was told that no supported cards were detected.

In fact, I'm currently running the driver provided by the
"fglrx-legacy" package in someone's PPA, and while accelerated video
is working ("glxinfo" produces copious, happy output), I have the "AMD
Unsupported hardware" watermark in the bottom-left corner of my
screen.

This is because ATI was not good about covering laptop-vendor-specific
chips in their driver documentation.  Consulting historical documents
from AMD/ATI will not help you as much as one would hope.

I believe that's correct: the *current* version of fglrx doesn't support
ATI FirePro M7740 chip.  Unfortunately, it's only the current version
that's compatible with the version of X that ships with Ubuntu 12.10.

It sounds like you're in the same boat that I am.  Basically, ATI
decided that any Radeon product with a chip numbered 4xxx is too old
to be worth supporting any more.  ATI has written you off.

Not sure.   I'm not that well versed on the intricacies of the X
server and/or the linux kernel.

I think it would take someone from AMD to say whether or not their
newest driver REALLY needs version 11 of the ABI, or if versions 12/13
are actually okay as well.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1058040] Re: fglrx-installer does not support HD2000-4000 "legacy" cards

2012-10-02 Thread Christian Convey
I'm going to add a comment to help people Googling this issue.  The ATI
Mobility M7740 chip, which was one option for the Dell M6500 Mobile
Precision laptop, is apparently considered a 4000-series chip, and so is
a victim of this AMD policy.

One of the supposed justifications for over-priced "workstation-class"
graphics chips was top-notch vendor support.  By so cutting short its
support of this chip, AMD has demonstrated that they can't be trusted to
support workstation-level users.

Unless something radically changes, I can't see buy AMD for my Linux
laptops / desktops anymore.  What a shame.

Title:
  "fglrx" package has unmet dependency

Status in “fglrx-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  First, let me note that the "fglrx-installer" package doesn't appear
  in the repositories (default) that I'm using, so I assume that I'm
  supposed to just install the "fglrx" package directly.

  When I try to install the closed-source AMD driver for my laptop
  graphics chip (AMD FirePro M7740), I get the following:

  
  cjc@awesome:~$ sudo aptitude install fglrx
  The following NEW packages will be installed:
fglrx{b} 
  The following packages are RECOMMENDED but will NOT be installed:
fglrx-amdcccle 
  0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
  Need to get 66.0 MB of archives. After unpacking 207 MB will be used.
  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   fglrx : Depends: xorg-video-abi-11 which is a virtual package.
  The following actions will resolve these dependencies:

   Keep the following packages at their current version:
  1) fglrx [Not Installed]  


  Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1051362] [NEW] fglrx (not installed): fglrx kernel module failed to build

2012-09-16 Thread Christian Convey
Public bug reported:

I'm using Ubuntu 12.10 beta, up to date as of 2012-09-15,  2 pm U.S.
Eastern time.

Uname output: "Linux awesome 3.5.0-14-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 14
20:21:51 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux"

My graphics chip is this (from lspci):
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] nee ATI M97 GL 
[ATI FirePro M7740]

Open-source graphics drive working okay, but I wanted to use the
Catalyst driver.  So I downloaded "amd-driver-
installer-8.982-x86.x86_64.run" from AMD's website, and used it to build
"Ubuntu/quantal" debian packages.  That went okay, so I installed them
using "sudo dpkg -i *.deb" in the directory containing the packages.

I got the following output from that dpkg invocation:
