DaemonFCschestowitz: I'm going to review Scientific Linux 6 shortly (just because I've been meaning to)Mar 06 18:41
DaemonFCinteresting to note that at the same time as this obfuscated kernel source, various Fedora related projects have started snubbing RHEL clonesMar 06 18:42
DaemonFC(No RPM Fusion for EL 6)Mar 06 18:42
DaemonFCAtRPMs and ELRepo are still aroundMar 06 18:42
DaemonFCa while back, some of the RPM Fusion people were trying to FUD both of them as "breaking" Fedora releasesMar 06 18:43
DaemonFCELRepo has never claimed that adding them to Fedora was a good idea (though they can't stop a person from it) and AtRPMs does replace some Fedora RPMs with its own versions, but always names them such that they won't break distribution upgradesMar 06 18:44
DaemonFCI kind of wonder how long Red Hat/Fedora have been trying to subvert free RHEL clones without coming right out and saying it :)Mar 06 18:44
oiaohmDaemonFC: This obfuscated kernel stunt is not the first time Redhat has done it either.Mar 06 18:46
oiaohmThey did it when mandrake was branching off as well.Mar 06 18:46
DaemonFCfor a while, RPM Fusion for EL 5 was providing kmods for video drivers because of Nvidia and ATI having this annoying habit or replacing libGL.so with their own versions, but the RPMs provided for RHEL have never done thisMar 06 18:46
DaemonFCthe ATI installer package builds an RPM that adds a diversion to their libGL.so without replacing the system packageMar 06 18:47
DaemonFCif you remove the RPM later, your system goes right back to using MESAMar 06 18:47
oiaohmATI has been good that way.Mar 06 18:47
DaemonFCbut if you run it as the generic Linux installer, it will bulldoze your system libraryMar 06 18:48
DaemonFC:)Mar 06 18:48
oiaohmThe Nvidia driver has a hunt down and destroy any other opengl lib it can find.Mar 06 18:48
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[rrix/@rrix] Tired of parents treating me like meatMar 06 18:48
DaemonFCwell, if you do use the generic installer, it's a simple matter of yum reinstall libgl (or whatever that package name was)Mar 06 18:49
DaemonFCit won't break your system, you just won't have 3d until you do thatMar 06 18:49
oiaohmNvidia has a search and destory feature in there installer.  DaemonFCMar 06 18:49
oiaohmATI only has the opps the file was in the same place we wanted to place it.Mar 06 18:49
DaemonFCyeah, last time I used Nvidia's installer it was because I needed a beta driver to use with a kernel I builtMar 06 18:49
DaemonFCand when it came time to remove it later in preference to a distro package, I was sorry :)Mar 06 18:50
oiaohmNvidia also does equal to windows by the way.Mar 06 18:50
DaemonFCit's not just one package it destroys, with Nvidia you have to gut and replace ALL of MesaMar 06 18:50
DaemonFCATI is just an annoyanceMar 06 18:51
oiaohmATI is hamless if you install it right.Mar 06 18:51
DaemonFCNvidia will prevent pretty much everything beyond framebuffer video if you remove it laterMar 06 18:51

oiaohmThe generic installer can be told not to overlap with ATI DaemonFCMar 06 18:52
oiaohmAnd then you can alter the ld.so.conf so it works.Mar 06 18:52
oiaohmThen remove ati just falls back like any good install should.Mar 06 18:52
DaemonFCI don't remember what I did to gut Nvidia, but I was close to backing up and formattingMar 06 18:53
DaemonFC:)Mar 06 18:53
DaemonFCI didn't end up having to, but it litters your system with its crap, it's not just limited to Mesa or XMar 06 18:54
DaemonFCNvidia has  the most evil driver in the world (R)Mar 06 18:54
DaemonFCif your distro doesn't provide packages and you don't want to use Nouveau, find one that doesMar 06 18:55
DaemonFCdon't ever use their installerMar 06 18:55
oiaohmLast time I end up running a debian audit script.Mar 06 18:56
oiaohmAny package with missing files reinstall.Mar 06 18:57
oiaohmor files that don't pass checksum.Mar 06 18:57
oiaohmThat are elfMar 06 18:57
oiaohmIts one of my anti root kit scripts.Mar 06 18:57
DaemonFCI kept in mind how ugly Nvidia's driver was when it came time to buy a new cardMar 06 18:58
oiaohmI made the mistake on a system I had installed NvidiaMar 06 18:58
DaemonFCit wasn't the deciding factor, but geezMar 06 18:58
oiaohmof running my anti root kit scriptsMar 06 18:58
oiaohmThat is how I knew it would work.Mar 06 18:58

-TRIdentica/#techrights-[rrix/@rrix] And here comes the breakdown. #nov4Mar 06 18:58
oiaohmIe Poff by by NvidiaMar 06 18:58
DaemonFCpretty much all of Nvidia's performance I understand comes from working around the X server instead of using itMar 06 18:58
oiaohmNvidia is doing what DRI2 enables.Mar 06 18:59
oiaohmBut DRI2 does it cleanly.Mar 06 18:59
DaemonFCX.org is probably more mismanaged now than ever, not like Nvidia needs to look hard to use them as an excuseMar 06 18:59

oiaohmX,org has been trying to delete old DRI1 hacks for ever.Mar 06 19:00
oiaohmProblem is delete them Nvidia drivers die.Mar 06 19:00
DaemonFCthey're becoming what they criticized XFree86 of beingMar 06 19:00
DaemonFCthis big monolithic mess with varying degrees of quality and overlapping drivers, so on so forthMar 06 19:00
oiaohmReally X.org is not DaemonFCMar 06 19:00
oiaohmThe X.org code base has reduced in size.Mar 06 19:01
oiaohmLot of the overlapping drivers started before x.org  DaemonFCMar 06 19:01
oiaohmDri1 was a major design stuff up done by Xfree86  DaemonFCMar 06 19:02
oiaohmDRI1 was built with the logic that a person would Only need 1 opengl application at a time.Mar 06 19:02
oiaohmNow how do you fix something like that.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:03
DaemonFCwell, obviously you can'tMar 06 19:03
oiaohmOnly way is basically rebuild everything.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:03
oiaohmDRI2Mar 06 19:03
DaemonFCI agree with what Wayland is doing in principleMar 06 19:04
DaemonFCbut in fact, I'm skeptical they'll get everyone onboardMar 06 19:04
oiaohmEverything has to be rebuilt for DRI2.  And in the processor Wayland got invented.Mar 06 19:04
oiaohmWayland and X.org are sharing many parts.Mar 06 19:04
oiaohmIncluding keyboard input;Mar 06 19:04
DaemonFCyeah, well right now you have ATI using DRI 1, and Nvidia using a combination of DRI 1 and their own extensions held together with chewing gumMar 06 19:05
oiaohmReally the lead of X.org is onboard with Wayland.Mar 06 19:05
DaemonFCthat's why only the free drivers work with Wayland, or KMS, or.....Mar 06 19:05
oiaohmATI is trying to do away with there closed source drivers.Mar 06 19:05
oiaohmSo ATI will get kinda fixed at some point.Mar 06 19:06
oiaohmThe long term plan from ATI is quite complex.Mar 06 19:06
oiaohmIe open source drivers get so far then they will release binary libs todo the patent covered bit.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:06
oiaohmYes insane one of the last moves is merge the streams.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:07
oiaohmNvidia its getting harder and harder each release of X.org for them to remain Dri1Mar 06 19:07
oiaohmAnd Nvidia does not want to have to release KMS to kernel.Mar 06 19:08

DaemonFCso basically you're seeing ATI support the freee driver framework for the same reason Fluendo supports GStreamerMar 06 19:08
DaemonFCthey hope to sell you binaries to plug into the "free" framework later onMar 06 19:09
DaemonFCotherwise it could be unusable Mar 06 19:09
oiaohmDaemonFC: Not sell AMD will want to sell the cards to you.Mar 06 19:09
DaemonFCyou know what I meanMar 06 19:09
oiaohmDaemonFC: they don't want you to be feature behind due to patents.Mar 06 19:09
DaemonFCyou still need them even though there will be some baseline functionality without itMar 06 19:09
oiaohmDaemonFC: Now of course if AMD can get the right patent agreements or implement the patent coverd parts in hardware.Mar 06 19:10
oiaohmSo that out the box it works AMD will.Mar 06 19:10
DaemonFChere, please build this nifty new framework to support our nonfree pluginsMar 06 19:10
DaemonFCyou've saved us so much money on programmer salary, thanks so much!Mar 06 19:10
oiaohmProblem is not all the old card were doing all the opengl features  that are patent covered in hardware.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:11
oiaohmAMD is basically going to work around a problem kindly.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:11
oiaohmNvidia from leaks appears to be working on a completely new driver for Linux in house.Mar 06 19:12
oiaohmGstreamer was designed to allow closed source plugins in.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:13
oiaohmDaemonFC: Note AMD is also talking to a lot of patent holder of opengl stuff about letting open source.Mar 06 19:14
DaemonFCDear Patent Troll, please find it in your heart of hearts to give up this racketeering scheme that our milk cow of 1,000 tits, known also as the patent system, has enabled you to sit back and make money on without the process of actually making, anything. Your friends, AMDMar 06 19:17
oiaohmDaemonFC: do you think AMD is talk nice.Mar 06 19:18
oiaohmDear Patent Troll  Please consider being nice to open source or we will have to start researching other ways to implement the functionality.    So one day we will pay you nothing.Mar 06 19:19
oiaohmAnd Patnet Troll most likely will listern because AMD has done that before.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:20
oiaohmAMD really does not care about paying patents as long as it does not interfere with what they want todo. DaemonFCMar 06 19:21
DaemonFCDear AMD, call us when you figure out how to get every game made that uses S3TC to work without any S3TC support in the driver. BTW, thanks for paying us royalties on your use of it in Catalyst, those checks are nice. If you can think of anything else that we may own a government sanctioned monopoly on that you would like to pay us for and transfer more costs onto your customers over, have your people call our people. Toodles!Mar 06 19:21
oiaohmThat would be a bad responce.Mar 06 19:22
DaemonFCWhat's ridiculous is how this bullshit can end up making it into a standard like OpenGLMar 06 19:22
oiaohmBecause AMD hardware implemenation S3TC is covered by AMD patent.Mar 06 19:23
oiaohmSo they don't have to pay for that one.Mar 06 19:23
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[rrix/@rrix] let's see if I can get anything done tonight or if I'm just going to fail again. #nov4Mar 06 19:23

DaemonFCan industry standard is almost always packed full of patents like a thanksgiving turkeyMar 06 19:23
oiaohmAMD can in theory shot down S3TCMar 06 19:24
DaemonFCthey tend to use things like the Khronos Group as a circle jerkMar 06 19:24
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[thistleweb/@thistleweb] all #lmde needs to be the perfect laptop / netbook distro is the option to encrypt /home in the installer !linux !linuxmintMar 06 19:25
DaemonFCwell, the problem is that you can't call something an open standards and then tell everyone that wants to implement it where to send the checksMar 06 19:25
oiaohmRecent years getting patented features into Khronos Group has been getting harder.Mar 06 19:25
oiaohmAny ideas why.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:26
oiaohmAll the video card makers have worked out the patent agreements are more of a pain in the ass than profit making.Mar 06 19:26
DaemonFCwell, why isn't anyone scared about the Direct3D state tracker? There's an entire API full of god knows what that is maintained by MicrosoftMar 06 19:26
DaemonFCand we're worried about one texture compression algorithm in OpenGL?Mar 06 19:26
oiaohmMicrosoft patent threatens Video card makers by the way.Mar 06 19:27
oiaohmit kinda woke them up.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:27
oiaohmTo how stupid they were being.Mar 06 19:27
DaemonFCThat D3D state tracker is more worrying than Mono, just watch what happens when you have Linux programs that need DirectX and Microsoft launches a lawsuitMar 06 19:28
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[satipera/@satipera] @themadhatter Part of Mexico :-)Mar 06 19:28
oiaohmProblem MS is limited.Mar 06 19:28
oiaohmMost of the features of the state tracker are exposed by the video card makers.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:29
DaemonFCS3TC is just about one washed up patent troll that nobody cares about anymore, and it brings the OpenGL state tracker work to a haltMar 06 19:29
oiaohmNo S3TC did not bring work to a halt.Mar 06 19:30
oiaohmFloating point textures has.   DaemonFCMar 06 19:30
oiaohm2 patents of hell.Mar 06 19:30
DaemonFCthey're debating whether to make Mesa the new LAMEMar 06 19:31
DaemonFCjsut ship it as source code and let the distro or user worry about itMar 06 19:31
oiaohmThe Floating point textures one is worse because you need that functionally to match fully base spec of opengl 2.0 and is required in opengl 3.0 and 4.0Mar 06 19:31
oiaohmS3TC is not a required part of the spec.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:32
DaemonFCDear user, OpenGL isn't all that open, so will you please compile it yourself or get it from a server in the Russian Federation? Thanks.Mar 06 19:32
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[satipera/@satipera] @themadhatter within a few lifetimes yes mostlyMar 06 19:33
oiaohmDaemonFC: Interesting thing here.Mar 06 19:34
oiaohmATI implement the extention for floating point texturesMar 06 19:34
oiaohmusing a patent they did not own.Mar 06 19:34
oiaohmThank you ATI for having incompetent Patent tracking.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:35
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[satipera/@satipera] @themadhatter I am sorry I do not understandMar 06 19:36

DaemonFC"ATI Premium Graphics" Oh, is THAT why your driver segfaults if I turn Compiz on? Awesome.Mar 06 19:39
DaemonFCTheir driver has always been a pain in the ass, it's just been less of one every month since AMD bought them.Mar 06 19:40
oiaohmATI is improving.Mar 06 19:40
oiaohmGetting to the point AMD will start using there own branding.Mar 06 19:41
oiaohmand the ATI brand will be allowed die.Mar 06 19:41
DaemonFCI got the idea to move over to Enterprise Linux because AMD officially supports itMar 06 19:41
DaemonFCthat's not always the case with other distros, it's more like good luck installing it, oh it has bugs, greatMar 06 19:41
oiaohmMeego will also be offically supported by AMD.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:42
oiaohmThere is about 8 distributions Offically supported.Mar 06 19:43
DaemonFCyeah, Ubuntu is supposedly one of themMar 06 19:43
oiaohmcorrection offically supported with developers.Mar 06 19:43
DaemonFCbut to get that support, you have to use Ubuntu :)Mar 06 19:43
oiaohmUbuntu is offically supported for packaging.Mar 06 19:43
oiaohmNot for real coding.Mar 06 19:43
DaemonFCWhat is the RHEL upgrade policy  like?Mar 06 19:44

oiaohmI normally don't use Redhat as a desktop.Mar 06 19:45

oiaohmScientific Linux 6  they have money.Mar 06 19:46
DaemonFCthere's free clones and you can get updates with thoseMar 06 19:46
DaemonFCunless you have a Red Hat Network subscription, you can't even get security updates for RHELMar 06 19:46
oiaohmYou can if you connect and basically turn it into fedora.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:47
DaemonFC?Mar 06 19:47
oiaohmRed Hat Enterpise contains a downgrade option.Mar 06 19:47
DaemonFCRHN is the update mechanism right?Mar 06 19:47
oiaohmConnect to Fedora reposMar 06 19:48

oiaohmThey can pirate as much as they like but its worthless withou the update server.Mar 06 19:49

oiaohmIntesting other way over.Mar 06 19:51
DaemonFCa Red Hat engineer said at one point that "there is a stable ABI for Linux, it's called RHEL, it lasts 10 years, and everyone should use it"Mar 06 19:51
DaemonFC:)Mar 06 19:51
oiaohmRHEL developed a lot of those patches before they went upstream.Mar 06 19:51
DaemonFCof course using the actual RHEL as a desktop is priceyMar 06 19:52
DaemonFC$86 a year per seatMar 06 19:52
oiaohmAnd Cern was not having a bar of that.  DaemonFCMar 06 19:52
DaemonFCright, that adds up fastMar 06 19:52
DaemonFCand if you want it as a server.....Mar 06 19:52
oiaohmSo leading to the existance of Scientific Linux Mar 06 19:52
DaemonFC:)Mar 06 19:52
oiaohmBut Redhat understood this.Mar 06 19:53
oiaohmSo they both share code with each other.Mar 06 19:53
DaemonFCyeah, well, SL is not a threat to Red HatMar 06 19:53
DaemonFCRed Hat is selling supportMar 06 19:53
DaemonFCnot softwareMar 06 19:53
oiaohmExactly.Mar 06 19:53
DaemonFCCentOS or SL is where you go if you wouldn't be paying Red Hat anywayMar 06 19:53
DaemonFCso why bother trying to muscle them out of existence?Mar 06 19:54
oiaohmMain reason to go redhat is the support.Mar 06 19:54
DaemonFCI'm going to be trying to set up SL 6  as a desktopMar 06 19:54

Diablo-D3the same way the goforce is absolutely not related to geforces, the imageon isnt a radeonMar 07 01:49

GoForbes28so gfx, what exactly does the QT "proprietary side" sale mean in terms of negative consequences?Mar 07 07:22
gnufreexAs it stands, it means nothingMar 07 07:22
gnufreexThey just get to resell proprietary licenses to those who want themMar 07 07:22
GoForbes28Then why is it bad news as you indicated?Mar 07 07:22
gnufreexBad news is that Elop still has QtMar 07 07:23
gnufreexNothing changedMar 07 07:23
GoForbes28Ah, that's whyMar 07 07:23
DaemonFCthere's nothing wrong with selling proprietary licenses for QTMar 07 07:23
GoForbes28Still, if they sell it, the company that gets the development "rights" may not be much betterMar 07 07:23
DaemonFCit's not going to lead to a fork, it just means that outfit can use QT without GPL-ing their productMar 07 07:23
gnufreexThat is problem too.Mar 07 07:23
DaemonFCOpera was using QT for a while like thatMar 07 07:24
DaemonFClook at it this way, it funds the salaries of a lot of QT developers at NokiaMar 07 07:24
MinceRthey can use Qt without GPL-ing their product anywayMar 07 07:24
MinceRQt is licensed under LGPL, remember?Mar 07 07:24
GoForbes28YesMar 07 07:24
gnufreexQt is LGPL Mar 07 07:24
DaemonFChmmMar 07 07:24
GoForbes28Like WineMar 07 07:24
gnufreexYesMar 07 07:24
DaemonFCwhy was Opera using it under a GPL opt-out?Mar 07 07:24
gnufreexNot even proprietary companies need licenseMar 07 07:24
gnufreexThey can use LGPL Mar 07 07:25
MinceRi see two points to commercial licensing: paid support and the ability to modify Qt without having to include its source codeMar 07 07:25
gnufreexMaybe they want to link staticallyMar 07 07:25
gnufreexFor convinienceMar 07 07:25
MinceRDaemonFC: the LGPL relicensing is recentMar 07 07:25
gnufreexalso thatMar 07 07:25
DaemonFCthey were linking statically when they used itMar 07 07:25
MinceRit happened not long after nokia bought trolltechMar 07 07:25
GoForbes28Opera now uses GTK, but that isn't LGPL is it?Mar 07 07:25
DaemonFCit's the only way to get consistency or to even guarantee that it will be thereMar 07 07:25
MinceRyou can statically link LGPL from nonfree code, you just need to include object files of your stuffMar 07 07:26
MinceRso that the user can relinkMar 07 07:26
gnufreexIf they want to link statically, then they must LGPL their stuff or get a prop licenseMar 07 07:26
DaemonFCnot all distros have QT libraries (a few don't) and the ones that do can modify it in such a way that it would cause bugs in OperaMar 07 07:26
MinceRmaybe not even that is required, i'm not sureMar 07 07:26
gnufreexThey might link dynamically or use inheritanceMar 07 07:26
gnufreexthen they don't need licenseMar 07 07:26
DaemonFCOpera just avoids the problem entirely now and uses its own toolkitMar 07 07:27
DaemonFCand mimics the desktop environment the user is running it inMar 07 07:27
GoForbes28They are using GTK for GNOME, no?Mar 07 07:27
GoForbes28I meant Opera isMar 07 07:27
DaemonFCno, it just looks like GTK when you run it in GNOMEMar 07 07:27
DaemonFCit's actually notMar 07 07:27
gnufreexHere is what PJ says on Qt saleMar 07 07:28
gnufreex[PJ: Remember SCO telling the court that in  SCO v. Novell that no one ever sells a business without the copyrights? Heh heh. It seems it does happen, eh?]Mar 07 07:28
DaemonFCthey have three interfaces it can mimic, GTK+, KDE, and generic QTMar 07 07:28
DaemonFCGeneric QT is what it falls back to if it can't tell what you're usingMar 07 07:28
DaemonFCand in that case, it also falls back to it's built-in file selectorMar 07 07:29
gnufreexProblem with this sale is that Elop gets time window he needsMar 07 07:29
DaemonFCyou can force it to do this by telling it to use File Selector #4Mar 07 07:29
DaemonFC:)Mar 07 07:29
GoForbes28DaemonFC: gotchaMar 07 07:29
GoForbes28Opera's kind of an enigmaMar 07 07:29
gnufreexHe gets to sell those symbian phonesMar 07 07:29
GoForbes28on the one hand, they are proprietaryMar 07 07:29
gnufreexAnd then he don't need Qt anymoreMar 07 07:29
DaemonFCQT is 1, GTK+ is 2, KDE is 3Mar 07 07:29
GoForbes28but on the other, they fight hard for Free standardsMar 07 07:30
DaemonFCanything else is as if you selected QTMar 07 07:30
DaemonFCfor some reason 1 sometimes goes and uses KDE anyway Mar 07 07:30
DaemonFCbut 4 doesn'tMar 07 07:30
DaemonFC:)Mar 07 07:30
DaemonFCit's nice that it blends in so well thoughMar 07 07:31
DaemonFCChrome and Firefox insist on looking GTK-ish even under KDE, and using GTK file selector dialogs with mandatory double clickMar 07 07:31

DaemonFCschestowitz: I'm going to review Scientific Linux 6 shortly (just because I've been meaning to)Mar 06 21:41
DaemonFCinteresting to note that at the same time as this obfuscated kernel source, various Fedora related projects have started snubbing RHEL clonesMar 06 21:42
DaemonFC(No RPM Fusion for EL 6)Mar 06 21:42
DaemonFCAtRPMs and ELRepo are still aroundMar 06 21:42
DaemonFCa while back, some of the RPM Fusion people were trying to FUD both of them as "breaking" Fedora releasesMar 06 21:43
DaemonFCELRepo has never claimed that adding them to Fedora was a good idea (though they can't stop a person from it) and AtRPMs does replace some Fedora RPMs with its own versions, but always names them such that they won't break distribution upgradesMar 06 21:44
DaemonFCI kind of wonder how long Red Hat/Fedora have been trying to subvert free RHEL clones without coming right out and saying it :)Mar 06 21:44
oiaohmDaemonFC: This obfuscated kernel stunt is not the first time Redhat has done it either.Mar 06 21:46
oiaohmThey did it when mandrake was branching off as well.Mar 06 21:46
DaemonFCfor a while, RPM Fusion for EL 5 was providing kmods for video drivers because of Nvidia and ATI having this annoying habit or replacing libGL.so with their own versions, but the RPMs provided for RHEL have never done thisMar 06 21:46
DaemonFCthe ATI installer package builds an RPM that adds a diversion to their libGL.so without replacing the system packageMar 06 21:47
DaemonFCif you remove the RPM later, your system goes right back to using MESAMar 06 21:47
oiaohmATI has been good that way.Mar 06 21:47
DaemonFCbut if you run it as the generic Linux installer, it will bulldoze your system libraryMar 06 21:47
DaemonFC:)Mar 06 21:47
oiaohmThe Nvidia driver has a hunt down and destroy any other opengl lib it can find.Mar 06 21:48
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[rrix/@rrix] Tired of parents treating me like meatMar 06 21:48
DaemonFCwell, if you do use the generic installer, it's a simple matter of yum reinstall libgl (or whatever that package name was)Mar 06 21:48
DaemonFCit won't break your system, you just won't have 3d until you do thatMar 06 21:49
oiaohmNvidia has a search and destory feature in there installer.  DaemonFCMar 06 21:49
oiaohmATI only has the opps the file was in the same place we wanted to place it.Mar 06 21:49
DaemonFCyeah, last time I used Nvidia's installer it was because I needed a beta driver to use with a kernel I builtMar 06 21:49
DaemonFCand when it came time to remove it later in preference to a distro package, I was sorry :)Mar 06 21:50
oiaohmNvidia also does equal to windows by the way.Mar 06 21:50
DaemonFCit's not just one package it destroys, with Nvidia you have to gut and replace ALL of MesaMar 06 21:50
DaemonFCATI is just an annoyanceMar 06 21:51
oiaohmATI is hamless if you install it right.Mar 06 21:51

oiaohmProblem is delete them Nvidia drivers die.Mar 06 22:00
DaemonFCthey're becoming what they criticized XFree86 of beingMar 06 22:00
DaemonFCthis big monolithic mess with varying degrees of quality and overlapping drivers, so on so forthMar 06 22:00
oiaohmReally X.org is not DaemonFCMar 06 22:00
oiaohmThe X.org code base has reduced in size.Mar 06 22:01
oiaohmLot of the overlapping drivers started before x.org  DaemonFCMar 06 22:01
oiaohmDri1 was a major design stuff up done by Xfree86  DaemonFCMar 06 22:02
oiaohmDRI1 was built with the logic that a person would Only need 1 opengl application at a time.Mar 06 22:02
oiaohmNow how do you fix something like that.  DaemonFCMar 06 22:03
DaemonFCwell, obviously you can'tMar 06 22:03
oiaohmOnly way is basically rebuild everything.  DaemonFCMar 06 22:03
oiaohmDRI2Mar 06 22:03
DaemonFCI agree with what Wayland is doing in principleMar 06 22:03
DaemonFCbut in fact, I'm skeptical they'll get everyone onboardMar 06 22:04
oiaohmEverything has to be rebuilt for DRI2.  And in the processor Wayland got invented.Mar 06 22:04
oiaohmWayland and X.org are sharing many parts.Mar 06 22:04
oiaohmIncluding keyboard input;Mar 06 22:04
DaemonFCyeah, well right now you have ATI using DRI 1, and Nvidia using a combination of DRI 1 and their own extensions held together with chewing gumMar 06 22:05
oiaohmReally the lead of X.org is onboard with Wayland.Mar 06 22:05
DaemonFCthat's why only the free drivers work with Wayland, or KMS, or.....Mar 06 22:05
oiaohmATI is trying to do away with there closed source drivers.Mar 06 22:05
oiaohmSo ATI will get kinda fixed at some point.Mar 06 22:05
oiaohmThe long term plan from ATI is quite complex.Mar 06 22:06
oiaohmIe open source drivers get so far then they will release binary libs todo the patent covered bit.  DaemonFCMar 06 22:06
oiaohmYes insane one of the last moves is merge the streams.  DaemonFCMar 06 22:06
oiaohmNvidia its getting harder and harder each release of X.org for them to remain Dri1Mar 06 22:07
oiaohmAnd Nvidia does not want to have to release KMS to kernel.Mar 06 22:08

oiaohmDear Patent Troll  Please consider being nice to open source or we will have to start researching other ways to implement the functionality.    So one day we will pay you nothing.Mar 06 22:19
oiaohmAnd Patnet Troll most likely will listern because AMD has done that before.  DaemonFCMar 06 22:20
oiaohmAMD really does not care about paying patents as long as it does not interfere with what they want todo. DaemonFCMar 06 22:21
DaemonFCDear AMD, call us when you figure out how to get every game made that uses S3TC to work without any S3TC support in the driver. BTW, thanks for paying us royalties on your use of it in Catalyst, those checks are nice. If you can think of anything else that we may own a government sanctioned monopoly on that you would like to pay us for and transfer more costs onto your customers over, have your people call our people.

DaemonFCyeah, Ubuntu is supposedly one of themMar 06 22:43
oiaohmcorrection offically supported with developers.Mar 06 22:43
DaemonFCbut to get that support, you have to use Ubuntu :)Mar 06 22:43
oiaohmUbuntu is offically supported for packaging.Mar 06 22:43
oiaohmNot for real coding.Mar 06 22:43
DaemonFCWhat is the RHEL upgrade policy  like?Mar 06 22:44
DaemonFClike for random packagesMar 06 22:44
DaemonFCwill you get a new Firefox and Pidgin or what?Mar 06 22:44
DaemonFClike in point upgradesMar 06 22:44
oiaohmI normally don't use Redhat as a desktop.Mar 06 22:44
DaemonFCI notice Pidgin has their own repo that is up to date for ELMar 06 22:45
DaemonFCthere's Red Hat Enterprise Linux ISOs that make their way to bittorrent sitesMar 06 22:45
DaemonFCwhich is just dumbMar 06 22:46
oiaohmScientific Linux 6  they have money.Mar 06 22:46
DaemonFCthere's free clones and you can get updates with thoseMar 06 22:46
DaemonFCunless you have a Red Hat Network subscription, you can't even get security updates for RHELMar 06 22:46
oiaohmYou can if you connect and basically turn it into fedora.  DaemonFCMar 06 22:47
DaemonFC?Mar 06 22:47
oiaohmRed Hat Enterpise contains a downgrade option.Mar 06 22:47
DaemonFCRHN is the update mechanism right?Mar 06 22:47
oiaohmConnect to Fedora reposMar 06 22:48
oiaohmAnd magically it ends up fedora.Mar 06 22:48
DaemonFCbut that's the problemMar 06 22:48
DaemonFCif you use RHEL, you don't want FedoraMar 06 22:48
DaemonFCFedora is new and bug proneMar 06 22:48
oiaohmExactly.Mar 06 22:48
oiaohmWhy you have to pay for updates Mar 06 22:48
oiaohmRedhat has the best protection against pirates.Mar 06 22:49
DaemonFCright, they backport a decent amount of stuff into ELMar 06 22:49
oiaohmThey can pirate as much as they like but its worthless withou the update server.Mar 06 22:49
oiaohmEL is Cern.Mar 06 22:49
oiaohmCern has been working with Redhat for a long time.Mar 06 22:49
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[satipera/@satipera] @themadhatter I was coming around to that but thought it was my cultural ignorance, tell me the jokeMar 06 22:50
DaemonFCRHEL 5 may say Linux 2.6.18, but it has a significant amount of bug fixes and new drivers, features, etc. from newer kernelsMar 06 22:50
oiaohmIntesting other way over.Mar 06 22:51
DaemonFCa Red Hat engineer said at one point that "there is a stable ABI for Linux, it's called RHEL, it lasts 10 years, and everyone should use it"Mar 06 22:51
DaemonFC:)Mar 06 22:51
oiaohmRHEL developed a lot of those patches before they went upstream.Mar 06 22:51
DaemonFCof course using the actual RHEL as a desktop is priceyMar 06 22:52
DaemonFC$86 a year per seatMar 06 22:52
oiaohmAnd Cern was not having a bar of that.  DaemonFCMar 06 22:52
DaemonFCright, that adds up fastMar 06 22:52
DaemonFCand if you want it as a server.....Mar 06 22:52
oiaohmSo leading to the existance of Scientific Linux Mar 06 22:52
DaemonFC:)Mar 06 22:52
oiaohmBut Redhat understood this.Mar 06 22:52
oiaohmSo they both share code with each other.Mar 06 22:53
DaemonFCyeah, well, SL is not a threat to Red HatMar 06 22:53
DaemonFCRed Hat is selling supportMar 06 22:53
DaemonFCnot softwareMar 06 22:53
oiaohmExactly.Mar 06 22:53
DaemonFCCentOS or SL is where you go if you wouldn't be paying Red Hat anywayMar 06 22:53
DaemonFCso why bother trying to muscle them out of existence?Mar 06 22:54
oiaohmMain reason to go redhat is the support.Mar 06 22:54
DaemonFCI'm going to be trying to set up SL 6  as a desktopMar 06 22:54
oiaohmThere support contracts are good.Mar 06 22:54

GoForbes28so gfx, what exactly does the QT "proprietary side" sale mean in terms of negative consequences?Mar 07 10:22
gnufreexAs it stands, it means nothingMar 07 10:22
gnufreexThey just get to resell proprietary licenses to those who want themMar 07 10:22
GoForbes28Then why is it bad news as you indicated?Mar 07 10:22
gnufreexBad news is that Elop still has QtMar 07 10:23
gnufreexNothing changedMar 07 10:23
GoForbes28Ah, that's whyMar 07 10:23
DaemonFCthere's nothing wrong with selling proprietary licenses for QTMar 07 10:23
GoForbes28Still, if they sell it, the company that gets the development "rights" may not be much betterMar 07 10:23
DaemonFCit's not going to lead to a fork, it just means that outfit can use QT without GPL-ing their productMar 07 10:23
gnufreexThat is problem too.Mar 07 10:23
DaemonFCOpera was using QT for a while like thatMar 07 10:24
DaemonFClook at it this way, it funds the salaries of a lot of QT developers at NokiaMar 07 10:24
MinceRthey can use Qt without GPL-ing their product anywayMar 07 10:24
MinceRQt is licensed under LGPL, remember?Mar 07 10:24
GoForbes28YesMar 07 10:24
gnufreexQt is LGPL Mar 07 10:24
DaemonFChmmMar 07 10:24
GoForbes28Like WineMar 07 10:24
gnufreexYesMar 07 10:24
DaemonFCwhy was Opera using it under a GPL opt-out?Mar 07 10:24
gnufreexNot even proprietary companies need licenseMar 07 10:24
gnufreexThey can use LGPL Mar 07 10:24
MinceRi see two points to commercial licensing: paid support and the ability to modify Qt without having to include its source codeMar 07 10:25
gnufreexMaybe they want to link staticallyMar 07 10:25
gnufreexFor convinienceMar 07 10:25
MinceRDaemonFC: the LGPL relicensing is recentMar 07 10:25
gnufreexalso thatMar 07 10:25
DaemonFCthey were linking statically when they used itMar 07 10:25
MinceRit happened not long after nokia bought trolltechMar 07 10:25
GoForbes28Opera now uses GTK, but that isn't LGPL is it?Mar 07 10:25
DaemonFCit's the only way to get consistency or to even guarantee that it will be thereMar 07 10:25
MinceRyou can statically link LGPL from nonfree code, you just need to include object files of your stuffMar 07 10:25
MinceRso that the user can relinkMar 07 10:26
gnufreexIf they want to link statically, then they must LGPL their stuff or get a prop licenseMar 07 10:26
DaemonFCnot all distros have QT libraries (a few don't) and the ones that do can modify it in such a way that it would cause bugs in OperaMar 07 10:26
MinceRmaybe not even that is required, i'm not sureMar 07 10:26
gnufreexThey might link dynamically or use inheritanceMar 07 10:26
gnufreexthen they don't need licenseMar 07 10:26
DaemonFCOpera just avoids the problem entirely now and uses its own toolkitMar 07 10:27
DaemonFCand mimics the desktop environment the user is running it inMar 07 10:27
GoForbes28They are using GTK for GNOME, no?Mar 07 10:27
GoForbes28I meant Opera isMar 07 10:27
DaemonFCno, it just looks like GTK when you run it in GNOMEMar 07 10:27
DaemonFCit's actually notMar 07 10:27
gnufreexHere is what PJ says on Qt saleMar 07 10:28
gnufreex[PJ: Remember SCO telling the court that in  SCO v. Novell that no one ever sells a business without the copyrights? Heh heh. It seems it does happen, eh?]Mar 07 10:28
DaemonFCthey have three interfaces it can mimic, GTK+, KDE, and generic QTMar 07 10:28
DaemonFCGeneric QT is what it falls back to if it can't tell what you're usingMar 07 10:28
DaemonFCand in that case, it also falls back to it's built-in file selectorMar 07 10:28
gnufreexProblem with this sale is that Elop gets time window he needsMar 07 10:29
DaemonFCyou can force it to do this by telling it to use File Selector #4Mar 07 10:29
DaemonFC:)Mar 07 10:29
GoForbes28DaemonFC: gotchaMar 07 10:29
GoForbes28Opera's kind of an enigmaMar 07 10:29
gnufreexHe gets to sell those symbian phonesMar 07 10:29
GoForbes28on the one hand, they are proprietaryMar 07 10:29
gnufreexAnd then he don't need Qt anymoreMar 07 10:29
DaemonFCQT is 1, GTK+ is 2, KDE is 3Mar 07 10:29
GoForbes28but on the other, they fight hard for Free standardsMar 07 10:29
DaemonFCanything else is as if you selected QTMar 07 10:30

DaemonFCschestowitz: I'm going to review Scientific Linux 6 shortly (just because I've been meaning to)Mar 07 02:44
DaemonFCinteresting to note that at the same time as this obfuscated kernel source, various Fedora related projects have started snubbing RHEL clonesMar 07 02:45
DaemonFC(No RPM Fusion for EL 6)Mar 07 02:45
DaemonFCAtRPMs and ELRepo are still aroundMar 07 02:45
DaemonFCa while back, some of the RPM Fusion people were trying to FUD both of them as "breaking" Fedora releasesMar 07 02:46
DaemonFCELRepo has never claimed that adding them to Fedora was a good idea (though they can't stop a person from it) and AtRPMs does replace some Fedora RPMs with its own versions, but always names them such that they won't break distribution upgradesMar 07 02:47
DaemonFCI kind of wonder how long Red Hat/Fedora have been trying to subvert free RHEL clones without coming right out and saying it :)Mar 07 02:47
oiaohmDaemonFC: This obfuscated kernel stunt is not the first time Redhat has done it either.Mar 07 02:49
oiaohmThey did it when mandrake was branching off as well.Mar 07 02:49
DaemonFCfor a while, RPM Fusion for EL 5 was providing kmods for video drivers because of Nvidia and ATI having this annoying habit or replacing libGL.so with their own versions, but the RPMs provided for RHEL have never done thisMar 07 02:49
DaemonFCthe ATI installer package builds an RPM that adds a diversion to their libGL.so without replacing the system packageMar 07 02:50
DaemonFCif you remove the RPM later, your system goes right back to using MESAMar 07 02:50
oiaohmATI has been good that way.Mar 07 02:50
DaemonFCbut if you run it as the generic Linux installer, it will bulldoze your system libraryMar 07 02:50
DaemonFC:)Mar 07 02:50
oiaohmThe Nvidia driver has a hunt down and destroy any other opengl lib it can find.Mar 07 02:51
-TRIdentica/#techrights-[rrix/@rrix] Tired of parents treating me like meatMar 07 02:51
DaemonFCwell, if you do use the generic installer, it's a simple matter of yum reinstall libgl (or whatever that package name was)Mar 07 02:51
DaemonFCit won't break your system, you just won't have 3d until you do thatMar 07 02:52
oiaohmNvidia has a search and destory feature in there installer.  DaemonFCMar 07 02:52
oiaohmATI only has the opps the file was in the same place we wanted to place it.Mar 07 02:52
DaemonFCyeah, last time I used Nvidia's installer it was because I needed a beta driver to use with a kernel I builtMar 07 02:52
DaemonFCand when it came time to remove it later in preference to a distro package, I was sorry :)Mar 07 02:53
oiaohmNvidia also does equal to windows by the way.Mar 07 02:53
DaemonFCit's not just one package it destroys, with Nvidia you have to gut and replace ALL of MesaMar 07 02:53
DaemonFCATI is just an annoyanceMar 07 02:54
oiaohmATI is hamless if you install it right.Mar 07 02:54
DaemonFCNvidia will prevent pretty much everything beyond framebuffer video if you remove it laterMar 07 02:54

oiaohmThe generic installer can be told not to overlap with ATI DaemonFCMar 07 02:54
oiaohmAnd then you can alter the ld.so.conf so it works.Mar 07 02:55
oiaohmThen remove ati just falls back like any good install should.Mar 07 02:55

DaemonFCI didn't end up having to, but it litters your system with its crap, it's not just limited to Mesa or XMar 07 02:57
DaemonFCNvidia has  the most evil driver in the world (R)Mar 07 02:57

oiaohmNvidia is doing what DRI2 enables.Mar 07 03:02
oiaohmBut DRI2 does it cleanly.Mar 07 03:02

oiaohmX,org has been trying to delete old DRI1 hacks for ever.Mar 07 03:03
oiaohmProblem is delete them Nvidia drivers die.Mar 07 03:03
DaemonFCthey're becoming what they criticized XFree86 of beingMar 07 03:03
DaemonFCthis big monolithic mess with varying degrees of quality and overlapping drivers, so on so forthMar 07 03:03
oiaohmReally X.org is not DaemonFCMar 07 03:03
oiaohmThe X.org code base has reduced in size.Mar 07 03:04
oiaohmLot of the overlapping drivers started before x.org  DaemonFCMar 07 03:04
oiaohmDri1 was a major design stuff up done by Xfree86  DaemonFCMar 07 03:05
oiaohmDRI1 was built with the logic that a person would Only need 1 opengl application at a time.Mar 07 03:05
oiaohmNow how do you fix something like that.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:06
DaemonFCwell, obviously you can'tMar 07 03:06
oiaohmOnly way is basically rebuild everything.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:06
oiaohmDRI2Mar 07 03:06
DaemonFCI agree with what Wayland is doing in principleMar 07 03:06
DaemonFCbut in fact, I'm skeptical they'll get everyone onboardMar 07 03:07
oiaohmEverything has to be rebuilt for DRI2.  And in the processor Wayland got invented.Mar 07 03:07
oiaohmWayland and X.org are sharing many parts.Mar 07 03:07
oiaohmIncluding keyboard input;Mar 07 03:07
DaemonFCyeah, well right now you have ATI using DRI 1, and Nvidia using a combination of DRI 1 and their own extensions held together with chewing gumMar 07 03:08
oiaohmReally the lead of X.org is onboard with Wayland.Mar 07 03:08
DaemonFCthat's why only the free drivers work with Wayland, or KMS, or.....Mar 07 03:08
oiaohmATI is trying to do away with there closed source drivers.Mar 07 03:08
oiaohmSo ATI will get kinda fixed at some point.Mar 07 03:08
oiaohmThe long term plan from ATI is quite complex.Mar 07 03:09
oiaohmIe open source drivers get so far then they will release binary libs todo the patent covered bit.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:09
oiaohmYes insane one of the last moves is merge the streams.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:09
oiaohmNvidia its getting harder and harder each release of X.org for them to remain Dri1Mar 07 03:10
oiaohmAnd Nvidia does not want to have to release KMS to kernel.Mar 07 03:11

DaemonFCthey hope to sell you binaries to plug into the "free" framework later onMar 07 03:11
DaemonFCotherwise it could be unusable Mar 07 03:12
oiaohmDaemonFC: Not sell AMD will want to sell the cards to you.Mar 07 03:12
DaemonFCyou know what I meanMar 07 03:12
oiaohmDaemonFC: they don't want you to be feature behind due to patents.Mar 07 03:12
DaemonFCyou still need them even though there will be some baseline functionality without itMar 07 03:12
oiaohmDaemonFC: Now of course if AMD can get the right patent agreements or implement the patent coverd parts in hardware.Mar 07 03:13
oiaohmSo that out the box it works AMD will.Mar 07 03:13
DaemonFChere, please build this nifty new framework to support our nonfree pluginsMar 07 03:13
DaemonFCyou've saved us so much money on programmer salary, thanks so much!Mar 07 03:13
oiaohmProblem is not all the old card were doing all the opengl features  that are patent covered in hardware.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:13
oiaohmAMD is basically going to work around a problem kindly.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:14
oiaohmNvidia from leaks appears to be working on a completely new driver for Linux in house.Mar 07 03:14
oiaohmGstreamer was designed to allow closed source plugins in.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:16
oiaohmDaemonFC: Note AMD is also talking to a lot of patent holder of opengl stuff about letting open source.Mar 07 03:17
DaemonFCDear Patent Troll, please find it in your heart of hearts to give up this racketeering scheme that our milk cow of 1,000 tits, known also as the patent system, has enabled you to sit back and make money on without the process of actually making, anything. Your friends, AMDMar 07 03:20
oiaohmDaemonFC: do you think AMD is talk nice.Mar 07 03:21
oiaohmDear Patent Troll  Please consider being nice to open source or we will have to start researching other ways to implement the functionality.    So one day we will pay you nothing.Mar 07 03:22
oiaohmAnd Patnet Troll most likely will listern because AMD has done that before.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:23
oiaohmAMD really does not care about paying patents as long as it does not interfere with what they want todo. DaemonFCMar 07 03:24
DaemonFCDear AMD, call us when you figure out how to get every game made that uses S3TC to work without any S3TC support in the driver. BTW, thanks for paying us royalties on your use of it in Catalyst, those checks are nice. If you can think of anything else that we may own a government sanctioned monopoly on that you would like to pay us for and transfer more costs onto your customers over, have your people call our people. Toodles!Mar 07 03:24
oiaohmThat would be a bad responce.Mar 07 03:25
DaemonFCWhat's ridiculous is how this bullshit can end up making it into a standard like OpenGLMar 07 03:25
oiaohmBecause AMD hardware implemenation S3TC is covered by AMD patent.Mar 07 03:26

oiaohmProblem MS is limited.Mar 07 03:31
oiaohmMost of the features of the state tracker are exposed by the video card makers.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:31
DaemonFCS3TC is just about one washed up patent troll that nobody cares about anymore, and it brings the OpenGL state tracker work to a haltMar 07 03:31
oiaohmNo S3TC did not bring work to a halt.Mar 07 03:33
oiaohmFloating point textures has.   DaemonFCMar 07 03:33
oiaohm2 patents of hell.Mar 07 03:33
DaemonFCthey're debating whether to make Mesa the new LAMEMar 07 03:34
DaemonFCjsut ship it as source code and let the distro or user worry about itMar 07 03:34
oiaohmThe Floating point textures one is worse because you need that functionally to match fully base spec of opengl 2.0 and is required in opengl 3.0 and 4.0Mar 07 03:34
oiaohmS3TC is not a required part of the spec.  DaemonFCMar 07 03:35

Diablo-D3the same way the goforce is absolutely not related to geforces, the imageon isnt a radeonMar 07 09:52
gnufreexMatrox could make embeded GPU, they fall behind on everytging, you would think they can use smallest manufacturing process posible and it would fit in cell phone :-)Mar 07 09:53
