01:32 <_anomaly_> still likely it's my micro-hdmi cable not passing it through though

01:32 <_anomaly_> if it's working for others

13:26 <dlezcano> hi guys

14:04 <chrs_> hi

14:43 <Wizzup> 'lo

21:43 <si1v3r_> Anyone know why xorg would work in 3.4 but not 3.8?

21:50 <WarheadsSE> Anything in the logs?

21:52 <si1v3r_> Nope. Just no screens found. I'm using the fbdev driver with 3.4 and if I have the debian "xserver-xorg-video-modesetting" package installed then it (3.4) acts axactly the same as 3.8.

21:52 <si1v3r_> Not sure how to get modesetting information though.

21:53 <liquidAcid> modesetting doesn't use fbdev though

21:54 <si1v3r_> Having that package installed just breaks 3.4, so I'm thinking it messes with probing.

21:55 <si1v3r_> I really don't have a lot of information to work with. X doesn't talk much.

21:55 <liquidAcid> you can increase log verbosity

21:56 <Wizzup> xf86-video-modesetting neer worked for me on chromeos

21:56 <Wizzup> never

21:57 <Wizzup> fbturbo should work on both, but.

21:57 <Wizzup> you need some patch, iirc.

21:57 <Wizzup> SJRvanSchaik

21:57 <si1v3r_> Leme just reboot into 3.8 real quick...

21:59 <Wizzup> (a kernel patch)

21:59 <si1v3r_> Incidentally, I did some model number cross checking, and I may have found some dells and HPs with compatible LCDs that might be nicer than the stock chromebook one.

22:01 <si1v3r_> (EE) FBDEV(0): mmap fbmem: Invalid argument

22:01 <si1v3r_> Guess that's a good place to start googling.

22:04 <liquidAcid> missing smem_{start,length}?

22:04 <si1v3r_> Where would that go?

22:05 <liquidAcid> i don't think that was removed in 3.8 though

22:06 <liquidAcid> https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=2f1eab8d8ab59e799f7d51d62410b398607a7bc3

22:07 <si1v3r_> So now the xorg driver has to change to match?

22:09 <mdrjr> si1v3r_: use the chromium-armsoc ddx instead

22:09 <mdrjr> https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/xf86-video-armsoc/

22:14 <si1v3r_> Says it requires a closed source sub module.

22:14 <mdrjr> it does?

22:14 <mdrjr> that's news

22:14 <si1v3r_> in the read me... for some chips....

22:14 <si1v3r_> Guess there's a chance I don't have one of them. eh

22:15 <mdrjr> it only needs if you plan to use 3d acceleration :P

22:16 <si1v3r_> Ok cool. I don't even need 2d accel. heh. So where's the compile button? readme didn't say anything about it and make, ./configure, and ./autogen do nothing useful.

22:17 <liquidAcid> it's ./autogen.sh

22:17 <mdrjr> ./autogen.sh --with-drmmode=exynos --prefix=/usr

22:18 <si1v3r_> Oh... I see. Script fails poorly when it can't find bins.

22:19 <Wizzup> I would suggest going for turbofb and not armsoc

22:19 <Wizzup> armsoc is _slow_

22:33 <si1v3r_> Doesn't seem to be holding on to the --with-drmmode option
