i would prefer this
DRI_DEBUG_DIR=/var/tmp/dri_debug_`date +%Y-%m-%d-%T`
so that on sorted dir listings the most recent is
always on top since this date is encoded MSB first.
(textual month locales wont sort that good at all.)
another two things you might want to add:
/sbin/lspci -vvv $DRI_DEBUG_DIR/lspci.txt
/sbin/lsmod $DRI_DEBUG_DIR/lsmod.txt
do you expect this commands beeing executed as root
or as a user? you might want to add some suid root
detection or a su - query to the script lines.
hmm, is there a way to dectect what built in or
external modules a specific linux kernel does provide?
why are you using for some of the redirections?
what about a final bz2 tarball creation?

Subject: [Dri-devel] Capturing debugging info without networking
Here is a sort of simple shell script that I just thought of
that might
make people's lives a little easier. Cut paste this into a file
(maybe /usr/local/bin/dri_debug.sh) and then add this line to your
equivalent of /etc/rc.local:
/bin/sh /usr/local/bin/dri_debug.sh
to have it run at boot time to save info from the last crash.
Otherwise, just run it any old time to get a snapshot of log data.
If there's interest, I'll put together a nice rc script that
should work
on most distros for distribution with the testing binaries. This is
just a mock up (I haven't even run it - I hate dog food ;) of what
should be a bit more complicated and grab a few more things,
but you get
the idea.
DRI_DEBUG_DIR=/var/tmp/dri_debug_`date +%d-%b-%Y-%T`
mkdir $DRI_DEBUG_DIR
cp /var/log/XFree86.0.log $DRI_DEBUG_DIR
# this should work, but a grep might be better ...
tail -5000 /var/log/messages $DRI_DEBUG_DIR/syslog.log
cp /etc/X11/XF86Config* $DRI_DEBUG_DIR
ls -l /usr/lib/libGL* $DRI_DEBUG_DIR/usr_GLFiles.txt
ls -l /usr/X11R6/lib $DRI_DEBUG_DIR/X11R6_libFiles.txt
ldd /usr/X11R6/bin/glxgears $DRI_DEBUG_DIR/ldd_glxgears.txt
# any other files ...
tar -czf $DRI_DEBUG_DIR.tar.gz $DRI_DEBUG_DIR
#rm -rf $DRI_DEBUG_DIR
It might be nice to patch xinitrc to do this:
glxinfo /var/tmp/glxinfo.txt
every time so it can be bundled up, too.
Then when people start having problems, the list can expect (somewhat)
consistent reports. Lemme know what you think.
I take no responsibility for the meltdown of your system ;)
