oiaohm | Yep why DaemonFC | Jun 01 05:16 |
DaemonFC | Tell me that the 5000 series won't be a gigantic catastrophe on Linux like earlier Radeons were | Jun 01 05:16 |
oiaohm | Um | Jun 01 05:16 |
oiaohm | Driver is still early stage. So closed source driver most likely recommend at first. DaemonFC | Jun 01 05:17 |
oiaohm | Define catastrophe and how early. | Jun 01 05:18 |
DaemonFC | uhhm, released in September of 2008 | Jun 01 05:19 |
DaemonFC | Still barely works with the FOSS stack in May of 2010 | Jun 01 05:19 |
DaemonFC | if you guessed RadeonHD 4670, you're correct | Jun 01 05:19 |
DaemonFC | that kind of catastrophe | Jun 01 05:19 |
DaemonFC | as in, by the time it works right, it's been obsolete for years | Jun 01 05:19 |
DaemonFC | is the 5000 series doomed to that? | Jun 01 05:19 |
DaemonFC | "We're compatible with the Radeon X1800, finally people with graphics cards from 2004 are free!" | Jun 01 05:21 |
-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[nsisodiya] Congrats to @aveeksen . One of the student who is getting fulltime mentor-ship by ME at my office and involved in my open source activities. | Jun 01 05:21 | |
cubezzz | but my graphics card is older than 2004 | Jun 01 05:21 |
DaemonFC | if I have to use Catalyst, does it suck as bad on the 5000 series as it did on older cards? | Jun 01 05:22 |
cubezzz | so far I like mobility 7500 | Jun 01 05:23 |
cubezzz | it's open, it does 3d, it basically works | Jun 01 05:23 |
cubezzz | no problems | Jun 01 05:23 |
cubezzz | it even supports hyperz | Jun 01 05:23 |
-BNtwitter/#boycottnovell-[nsisodiya] I need a CMS where user can create account, upload pics, share them. may be similar to flickr. should be free of cost and FOSS. #suggestions | Jun 01 05:26 | |
oiaohm | Catalyst at least these days resonably works. DaemonFC | Jun 01 05:27 |
oiaohm | It still could take a year for 5000 to be fully operating. DaemonFC | Jun 01 05:27 |
DaemonFC | the open source broadcom firmware cured my biggest Linux gripe ever | Jun 01 05:28 |
oiaohm | Basically each cycle its getting shorter. DaemonFC | Jun 01 05:28 |

cubezzz | ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5800 Series seems to be the newest supported card | Jun 01 05:28 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, depends what you mean by support | Jun 01 05:29 |
cubezzz | or ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series | Jun 01 05:29 |

DaemonFC | you know, I have to admit some of these Windows 7 Character theme wallpapers are kind of good | Jun 01 05:29 |
cubezzz | Proviso: I've never tried it | Jun 01 05:30 |
DaemonFC | cubezzz, When you're wondering why your $400 GPU can't resize windows as quickly with the ATI driver as you can with Vesa..... | Jun 01 05:31 |
DaemonFC | call that "support" if you want | Jun 01 05:31 |
DaemonFC | I call it a halfassed job | Jun 01 05:31 |
DaemonFC | that's why Ubuntu defaults to not showing the window contents during resize if you have Compiz on | Jun 01 05:32 |
DaemonFC | workaround for that very obvious and painful ATI problem | Jun 01 05:32 |
*PingJocky has quit (Remote host closed the connection) | Jun 01 05:33 | |
DaemonFC | ATI makes great hardware, but you really can't use it without Windows | Jun 01 05:33 |
DaemonFC | I mean you can, at half speed with a lot of bugs maybe | Jun 01 05:33 |
cubezzz | I've had zero problems on mobility 7500 | Jun 01 05:33 |
DaemonFC | whoever is responsible for FGLRX needs to die in a fire | Jun 01 05:34 |
cubezzz | and I compiled the driver myself | Jun 01 05:34 |
cubezzz | another proviso: I did it on Fedora 10 | Jun 01 05:34 |
DaemonFC | if ATI released a driver of FGLRX quality for Windows, Microsoft wouldn't sign off on it | Jun 01 05:35 |
DaemonFC | Apple wouldn't either | Jun 01 05:35 |
cubezzz | I was lucky, I blindly picked a Panasonic Toughbook which could be 99% FOSS based | Jun 01 05:35 |
cubezzz | except for the bios | Jun 01 05:35 |
DaemonFC | Windows Hardware Quality Labs has higher standards than what ATI's Linux drivers meet | Jun 01 05:36 |
DaemonFC | think about that | Jun 01 05:36 |
cubezzz | DaemonFC, sound to me you are: | Jun 01 05:36 |
cubezzz | 1) pirating windows or | Jun 01 05:36 |
cubezzz | 2) giviing your money to Microsoft | Jun 01 05:36 |
cubezzz | right? | Jun 01 05:37 |
cubezzz | one of those two | Jun 01 05:37 |
DaemonFC | well, it owuld be nice if there was some minimal benchmark of quality for Linux drivers to meet | Jun 01 05:37 |
DaemonFC | I mean there is if they're a part of the kernel itself | Jun 01 05:37 |
DaemonFC | but ATI can release a driver that skullfucks you and get away with it | Jun 01 05:37 |
cubezzz | ok, ask oiaohm what he uses | Jun 01 05:38 |
cubezzz | or Diablo-D3 even | Jun 01 05:38 |
cubezzz | get another viewpoint | Jun 01 05:38 |
cubezzz | here... FSF says: | Jun 01 05:39 |
cubezzz | "Gigabyte M57SLI-S4 (with Radeon 9700 recommended for video)" | Jun 01 05:39 |
cubezzz | you could even run coreboot on that board | Jun 01 05:40 |
DaemonFC | FSF says "We recommend hardware that you found while dumpster diving the the guy throwing it away got second hand from his older brother who bought it as a bargain part 5 years ago" | Jun 01 05:40 |

DaemonFC` | oiaohm, What's with the shitty DirectX 11 performance on the RadeonHD 5000 series? | Jun 01 14:58 |
DaemonFC` | whose fault? | Jun 01 14:58 |
oiaohm | Case of both. | Jun 01 14:58 |
oiaohm | MS and ATI. | Jun 01 14:58 |
DaemonFC` | drivers? | Jun 01 14:59 |
oiaohm | Drivers and Design of API | Jun 01 14:59 |
oiaohm | 5000 internal design don't really match up to the MS direct x design. | Jun 01 14:59 |
oiaohm | Matches more up to opengl | Jun 01 14:59 |
DaemonFC` | doesn't make sense | Jun 01 15:00 |
DaemonFC` | nobody is using OpenGL on Windows | Jun 01 15:00 |
oiaohm | And that is partly MS fault over risk of attacking card makers over having direct x items in hardware. | Jun 01 15:00 |
oiaohm | Yes both. Patent stupidity on the MS side. DaemonFC` | Jun 01 15:01 |
oiaohm | ATI for some sucky drivers in places. | Jun 01 15:01 |
DaemonFC` | DirectX 10 is fine | Jun 01 15:01 |
DaemonFC` | but if you go DirectX 11 mode, your performance is cut in half | Jun 01 15:01 |
oiaohm | DirectX 10 90 percent maps to opengl latest version almost perfectly. | Jun 01 15:02 |
oiaohm | The missing 10 percent is Direct X shader complier. | Jun 01 15:02 |
oiaohm | Basically saber rattling problems. DaemonFC` | Jun 01 15:03 |
DaemonFC` | well, in that case there's not much duplicated hardware right? | Jun 01 15:04 |
oiaohm | Almost zero. | Jun 01 15:05 |
oiaohm | There is no real room to have duplicate. DaemonFC` | Jun 01 15:05 |
DaemonFC` | schestowitz was going on about it one day like they were spending 100 million transistors just to support DirectX | Jun 01 15:05 |
DaemonFC` | I kind of doubted they would do something like that | Jun 01 15:05 |
oiaohm | They did. | Jun 01 15:06 |
oiaohm | And most of that 100 million ended up as opengl extentions. | Jun 01 15:06 |
oiaohm | In the opengl released after | Jun 01 15:07 |
oiaohm | Tech has bounced between opengl and direct x for a long time. | Jun 01 15:07 |
DaemonFC` | so you're saying the next OpenGL spec decided to figure out how to use the specialized DirectX stuff as part of their own API? | Jun 01 15:07 |
oiaohm | Basically yep. | Jun 01 15:08 |
oiaohm | And the reverse happens as well. | Jun 01 15:08 |
DaemonFC` | so DirectX and OpenGL are not all that different? | Jun 01 15:08 |
oiaohm | New features in opengl ends up in direct x | Jun 01 15:08 |
oiaohm | At the video card level nop. | Jun 01 15:08 |
oiaohm | That is why wine can map direct x to opengl as well as they do. | Jun 01 15:08 |
DaemonFC` | yeah, I was going to say, when Wine does it, it's not as expensive as you'd expect it to be | Jun 01 15:09 |
oiaohm | If they were truly majorally different maping would be basically impossiable. | Jun 01 15:09 |
DaemonFC` | there's some performance hit, but it's minor | Jun 01 15:09 |
oiaohm | Most comes from not being able to produce gpu code directly. | Jun 01 15:09 |
oiaohm | Instead having to double translate. | Jun 01 15:09 |
oiaohm | I guess how minor the performance hit is now make sence. DaemonFC` | Jun 01 15:10 |
DaemonFC` | what I still want to know is how installing DirectX 7 torpedoed my Voodoo 2 card | Jun 01 15:11 |
DaemonFC` | it didn't even support DirectX :P | Jun 01 15:11 |

oiaohm | The interperter could be built in any other language other than C. | Jun 01 15:34 |

oiaohm | yes it would be really strange boot straping with python on perl. | Jun 01 15:34 |
oiaohm | Difference here a interp causes a cross of languages. | Jun 01 15:35 |
oiaohm | You would have to have one insanely smart backdoor to pickup what is going on. MinceR | Jun 01 15:35 |
MinceR | sadly, i can't exclude insanely smart backdoors. :) | Jun 01 15:37 |
oiaohm | Next is a raw machine code build system. That is simple. | Jun 01 15:37 |
oiaohm | Ie multi stage build complier. | Jun 01 15:37 |
oiaohm | Simple asm processor building up to complex complier. | Jun 01 15:38 |
MinceR | maybe we need an open standard hw stack that we can use to run trusted and audited machine code to start off the process | Jun 01 15:38 |
MinceR | and eventually we'll have a compiler to crosscompile with | Jun 01 15:38 |
oiaohm | The asm stage is quite simple to audit | Jun 01 15:38 |
MinceR | i think this is the idea i came up with when i thought of it earlier | Jun 01 15:38 |
MinceR | then i forgot about it | Jun 01 15:38 |

oiaohm | Yep | Jun 01 15:39 |
MinceR | could be very tricky... but it's probably less tricky than writing a complex compiler in asm | Jun 01 15:39 |
MinceR | (writing an assembler in machine code is probably not the difficult part) | Jun 01 15:39 |
oiaohm | Simpler if you build not optimised. | Jun 01 15:40 |
MinceR | true | Jun 01 15:40 |

DaemonFC | and Wine will have to implement FTH of its own | Jun 01 23:03 |
schestowitz | It manages itself | Jun 01 23:03 |
MinceR | not entirely | Jun 01 23:04 |
MinceR | often the user needs to manage it | Jun 01 23:04 |
MinceR | at the very least wine could make FTH optional per app | Jun 01 23:05 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, My favorite part was where some outfit unleashed a bunch of malware samples on Windows 7 to see if Windows 7 would stop any of them | Jun 01 23:05 |
DaemonFC | and the only ones it stopped were the ones that failed to run due to compatibility problems | Jun 01 23:05 |
MinceR | was it supposed to stop malware? | Jun 01 23:06 |
DaemonFC | Windows Defender is 47% effective MinceR | Jun 01 23:06 |
DaemonFC | logically, that means it's 53% ineffective I guess | Jun 01 23:06 |
schestowitz | 64bit | Jun 01 23:06 |
schestowitz | Microsoft says, move to 64 | Jun 01 23:06 |
schestowitz | Why? | Jun 01 23:06 |
DaemonFC | yes, 64-bit DEP is mandatory | Jun 01 23:07 |
schestowitz | Cause crackers haven't compiled for it | Jun 01 23:07 |
DaemonFC | there's no opting out | Jun 01 23:07 |
schestowitz | Not that they can't :-) | Jun 01 23:07 |
MinceR | so it will look like it's time for 128bit | Jun 01 23:07 |
schestowitz | It might also complicate it for AV signatures | Jun 01 23:07 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, Windows 7 64-bit is marginally safer than 32-bit | Jun 01 23:07 |
DaemonFC | that much is true | Jun 01 23:07 |
DaemonFC | but it's not enough to make an issue over | Jun 01 23:07 |
schestowitz | MinceR: hehe, "Windows 9" vapour? | Jun 01 23:07 |
MinceR | dunno | Jun 01 23:07 |
schestowitz | They can't even make users embrace IPv6 and 64-bit | Jun 01 23:08 |
MinceR | i thought it was 8 | Jun 01 23:08 |
MinceR | but one never knows | Jun 01 23:08 |
schestowitz | 9 | Jun 01 23:08 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, Teredo!!!! | Jun 01 23:08 |
schestowitz | They said so | Jun 01 23:08 |
MinceR | can they even embrace ipv6 themselves? | Jun 01 23:08 |
schestowitz | Vapurspeak | Jun 01 23:08 |
MinceR | or even 64bit? | Jun 01 23:08 |
schestowitz | Maybe 64-bit servers | Jun 01 23:08 |
DaemonFC | load Teredo Tubes 1 and 2! | Jun 01 23:08 |
DaemonFC | fire when ready! | Jun 01 23:08 |
DaemonFC | :P | Jun 01 23:08 |
MinceR | they were far behind linux in 64bit | Jun 01 23:08 |
schestowitz | [23:07] <DaemonFC> schestowitz, Windows 7 64-bit is marginally safer than 32-bit | Jun 01 23:08 |
MinceR | and in usb | Jun 01 23:09 |
schestowitz | Almost safe enough for Google to consider? | Jun 01 23:09 |
MinceR | and they took the tcp/ip stack from bsd | Jun 01 23:09 |
schestowitz | Vista 7 was no good for Google | Jun 01 23:09 |
MinceR | they current 128bit hype is comical | Jun 01 23:09 |
schestowitz | It could say, "Windows users-- upgrade" | Jun 01 23:09 |
schestowitz | But no.. | Jun 01 23:09 |
schestowitz | It's same old junk | Jun 01 23:09 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, I didn't say it was ultra-safe | Jun 01 23:09 |
DaemonFC | I said it was a little safer | Jun 01 23:09 |
DaemonFC | due to some security measures having no opt-out | Jun 01 23:09 |
schestowitz | MinceR: imagine the reaction at AMD | Jun 01 23:09 |
MinceR | it's safer, like a condom with 255 holes is safer than a condom with 256 holes | Jun 01 23:10 |
DaemonFC | applications can opt-out of DEP on 32-bit Windows, schestowitz | Jun 01 23:10 |
schestowitz | "Wha??? StevB? WTH? You crazy???" | Jun 01 23:10 |
DaemonFC | on 64-bit Windows, they have to "fucking deal with it" | Jun 01 23:10 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jun 01 23:10 |
DaemonFC | that's the main advantage | Jun 01 23:10 |
schestowitz | MinceR: that sounds like like a rubber sock | Jun 01 23:10 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz, WOW64 lets 32-bit apps think they've opted out | Jun 01 23:11 |
DaemonFC | but they really havent | Jun 01 23:11 |
MinceR | well, we're talking about windows security | Jun 01 23:11 |
DaemonFC | and it resorts to some fuckery to make them work anyway | Jun 01 23:11 |
schestowitz | Windows 9- the rubbery sock of IT | Jun 01 23:11 |
DaemonFC | usually B-) | Jun 01 23:11 |

schestowitz | DaemonFC: her majesty Pearly | Jun 01 23:19 |
DaemonFC | I'm going to figure out when that guys sleeps | Jun 01 23:20 |
DaemonFC | and move my sound system right over where I think his bed is | Jun 01 23:21 |
DaemonFC | just blast it for a few minutes, enough for him to eake up and call the police | Jun 01 23:21 |
DaemonFC | and then it's off by the time they get here | Jun 01 23:21 |
DaemonFC | see how he likes it | Jun 01 23:21 |

schestowitz | Many neighbours of mine play musical instruments | Jun 01 23:23 |
schestowitz | Some for orchetra | Jun 01 23:23 |
DaemonFC | hmmm, schestowitz | Jun 01 23:24 |
DaemonFC | I got an idea | Jun 01 23:24 |
schestowitz | Drummers play sometimes | Jun 01 23:24 |
DaemonFC | find some mp3s or whatever of someone who can play the drums | Jun 01 23:24 |
DaemonFC | make it sound like I'm up here practicing | Jun 01 23:24 |
DaemonFC | that should really fuck with them | Jun 01 23:24 |
