VMI & KVM in Gutsy Kernels

2007-07-03 Thread Johnson, Charles F
For UME, what is the thinking around whether we should have
virtualization available in the UME kernels ??  I think VMI and KVM are
in the latest upstream kernels aren't they ??  Are both of these already
set to be enabled in the desktop and server SKUs of Gutsy ??

Yes quite likely, Keith can you confirm? Is the unclipped manual
redirect still planned for X server 1.4?

We have now applied it in maemo and it will soon go to Ubuntu's X, it
seems to woek very nice.

Yep, from what I understood from the code, it looked safe to me too,
although I'm curious what CompRedirectNone is supposed to be.  My only
other idea was that maybe he meant RedirectDrawNone there?

UME Guide

Ola,
I have finished migrating the content from all of the 'approved' UME blueprints 
into the guide. I
have also created the .pot file for translation. If anyone wants to take a look 
or help out it can
be downloaded from
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IanLawrence

power-aware applications

2007-07-03 Thread Amit Kucheria

Hi,

While reading through Power Policy Management [1], I started thinking about
the changes required to applications to make them 'power-aware'.

The minimum required would be that the application sends its configuration
to the Power Policy Manager on start up. More sophisticated applications
might change these configurations according to rapidly changing use profile.

Is there a list of applications and libraries that are being made
power-aware? Typically, these changes kill performance, so the sooner they
are merged in, the better.

Regards,
Amit

Yes I had the same problem, I'm not sure where CompRedirectNone comes
from, probably Keithp's tree. Anyway I think it's meant to be 0, so
removing the

-if (pWin->redirectDraw)
+if (pWin->redirectDraw != CompRedirectNone)

should be harmless. It works fine without this part.

evdev Touchscreen calibration improvement patch

2007-07-03 Thread Bryce Harrington
We recently got a patch from the Pepper project to improve support for
touchscreen calibration.  Unfortunately I don't have a touchscreen
device handy to test on, but I've packaged it up for Gutsy here:

   http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/evdev/

If anyone here has a touchscreen they could test the above against and
give me a thumbs up, and there don't seem to be any noteworthy
regressions, I'll put it in for an upload.

Thanks,
Bryce

Hi Johan,

I've posted .debs of xorg-server with this patch, here:

   http://people.ubuntu.com/~bryce/Testing/xorg-server/

(I plan to start using PPA for these kinds of test packages in the
future, but will beg forgiveness for just posting the raw .debs for
now.)

Btw, I noticed a discrepancy between keithp's original patch and the one
proposed for Feisty.  The former had a chunk in its patch that modified
the code to add some comparisons to 'CompRedirectNone' (which doesn't
appear to exist).  Since I couldn't get that chunk to compile, I went
with the second proposed-for-Fesity version, but I'm curious about this
chunk, and if it's at all important?

Bryce
