[Bug 2058143] Re: Decoding glitchy on GM45 - MR has been pending since 2020

2024-03-18 Thread Robert Mader
So the MR fixing the particular glitch I'm seeing on my Thinkpad T400 /
GM45 is https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/pull/514 . Including
that would be enough to close this bug - it's pretty small and straight
forward.

[Bug 2058143] [NEW] Decoding glitchy on GM45 - MR has been pending since 2020

2024-03-17 Thread Robert Mader
Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 24.04 will ship with Gstreamer 1.24, which finally promoted many
"va*" plugins to primary, i.e. enabled them by default and will thus be
used by more apps than in the past.

I tested this on an old Thinkpad T400 / Intel GM45 and ran into a
glitch. Fortunately there's pending MR (see below) fixing that - but
Intel does not seem to maintain https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-
driver any more, so it will likely never get merged or released.

I'd thus like to request to add the MR in question to the Debian/Ubuntu
package. However, while on it, it might sense to add a few more fixes
that have accumulated:

 - All new commits on the master branch (~7?)
 - https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/pull/566, which will be needed 
for upcoming Wayland compositor changes.
 - https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/pull/514 which fixes glitches 
for e.g. Gstreamer based players on very old generations (GM45). I 
tested/verified this one myself.
 - Potentially: https://github.com/intel/intel-vaapi-driver/pull/530 - 
unfortunately I don't have the hardware to verify this one.

If you prefer, I can also try to open a MR at
https://salsa.debian.org/multimedia-team/intel-vaapi-
driver/-/merge_requests - but I'm not very used to the debian packaging
workflow.

Thanks for considering :)

I'd agree - should work well for almost everyone.

One question I had to think of is if we want to use rounded corners at
the bottom at some point - more and more GTK4 apps do that, e.g.
nautilus/files. But we can also leave that for the future.

2021-10-06 Thread Robert Mader
This just became even more prominent in 95 with colorways. We need a way
to support this with alpha visuals as XShape is neither available on
Wayland nor on X11 with HW Webrender - i.e. it's only available in
legacy fallback paths. As the default theme supports this (even though
with a grey corner), I suppose this is not really a graphics but rather
a theme issue.

Emilio, do you happen to know how the default theme gets its corners and
what would need to be done to make it work for other themes as well?

[Bug 1905330] [NEW] Backport Wayland frame callback fix for 3.28 for Firefox testing infrastructure

2020-11-23 Thread Robert Mader
Public bug reported:

The Firefox testing infrastructure is based on Ubuntu 18.04. In order to
enable the Wayland backend by default, we need to also run test on that.

There is one particular bug in Mutter 3.28 that I'd like to see fixed
for that, thus requesting a backport of a patch. It's already in the
upstream repo, but as 3.28 is not supported upstream any more, I request
it here explicitly:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/merge_requests/1570

@vanvugt @3v1n0 this would be super helpful for us, I hope I can
convince you about that, even if Ubuntu 18.04 doesn't support Wayland
officially.

It can be tested by running Firefox with `MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1` and
setting `widget.wayland_vsync.enabled:1` in the config (soon to be
enabled by default). If, after launching Firefox again, everything works
as expected - well, then it works.

Bonus: the patch also affects a number of other Wayland applications, so
some users might be happy to see it as well.

Although this bug is only about decoding support, I'd like to leave a note 
about the rendering: AFAIK rendering without any slow copies requires DMABUF 
support, so processes can share resources on the GPU.
For the Wayland backend this about to land, see bug 1552590, quote:

> Wayland dmabuf surface are located in GPU and can be attached as
EGLImage or wl_buffer. It allows direct rendering to GPU and share the
HW buffer across processes.

[Bug 1750633] Re: signer and verifier have been deprecated

2018-07-26 Thread Robert Mader
Hej Kenneth, thanks for the answer. I agree that this is a sufficient
workaround, but for an LTS version of Ubuntu, I think it would be
worthwhile considering backporting this fix.

People will use Ubuntu 18.04 for many years to come and many will hit
this issue, especially people using it on servers and doing backups with
duplicity. Installing packages from pip makes updates more complicated
and dangerous and is certainly not the desired state for backup
solutions. Maybe the maintainer of paramiko, @jbouse, can comment on
that?

It's a fairly trivial and I just tested it on my server (18.04) without issues.

I'd really appreciate a backport of the fix. Some other distributions
shipping with paramiko 2.0 ship it already, for example mageia
(https://advisories.mageia.org/MGAA-2018-0077.html)

It affects everyone doing backups with duplicity over ssh, most notably
when using cronjobs. Probably quite a big group. Unfortunately it's not
enough to just set the log verbosity to error.
