Change logs for xserver-xorg-video-intel source package in Lucid

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-3ubuntu5) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Drop debian/patches/107_disable_dri_on_845_855.patch:
        + This attempt to work around the crashes on i845 and i855 documented in
          LP: #541492 and LP: #541511 simply shuffled the brokeness around.  It
          hasn't helped enough, and it unconditionally disables 3D which worked for
          some users before.

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-3ubuntu4) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Drop /etc/modprobe.d/i915-kms.conf; in the best case it's redundant
        because KMS is on by default in the Ubuntu kernel, in the worst case it
        breaks our ability to forcibly disable KMS when there's a problem.

      [Christopher James Halse Rogers]
      * debian/patches/107_disable_dri_on_845_855.patch:
        + Disable DRI on i845 and i855 chips.  Works around the stability problems
          these chips have in Lucid (LP: #541492, LP: #541511).

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-3ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Add 107_i830_clip_solid_fills_to_surface.patch: Clip x,y bounds of
        solid fills to the min and max coordinates of the pixmap being filled.
        Partial fix to some of the 8xx freeze issues.  Cherrypick from
        upstream git commit 0c47195c by Chris Wilson.

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-3ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Merge with Debian.
        - Backport KMS video overlay from upstream 2.10 (lp: #395932)
      * Remaining Ubuntu changes:
        - debian/apport-gpu-error-intel.py, debian/xserver-xorg-video-intel.udev:
          Add apport script to collect debug information on GPU hangs
        - rules: Install udev rule to run the script when the kernel detects hung GPU
        - control: Add intel-gpu-tools to Recommends for use by the above
        - 101_copy-fb.patch: Adds feature to driver so Xserver can draw
          root windows with no background.  This enables smooth boot with
          Plymouth.
        - Drop xserver-xorg-video-intel-dbg.install: intel_reg_dumper is now
          provided by the intel-gpu-tools package.
        - apport-gpu-error-intel.py, xserver-xorg-video-intel.install,
          xserver-xorg-video-intel.udev: Add apport hook to catch X freeze bugs
        - 102_avoid_flushing_null.patch: Cherrypick from upstream to I830.
        - 103_check_for_overflow.patch: Cherrypick from upstream to I915.
        - 104_fail_when_prop_values_gone.patch: Cherrypick from upstream to
          drmmode_display.
      * Reduce libdrm-dev requirement to 2.6.18
      * Add 105_free_after_printing.patch: Cherrypick from upstream.
        Avoid printing a just-freed string if the DRM device could not be opened.
      * Add 106_initialize_drmmode_output.patch: Cherrypick from upstream.
        Clear mode_output during output destroy.

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu18) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * Add 102_avoid_flushing_null.patch: Cherrypick from upstream to I830.
        During shutdown from a FatalError during batchbuffer submission, it is
        possible for the batch_ptr to be NULL, so we must be careful not to
        append a flush on this error path.
      * Add 103_check_for_overflow.patch: Cherrypick from upstream to I915.
        Check for overflow before overflowing.  As the immediate victim of the
        overflow would be to overwrite the maximum permissible value, the test
        was optimistic.
      * Add 104_fail_when_prop_values_gone.patch: Cherrypick from upstream to
        drmmode_display.  Return failure when the enum-type output property
        values are not found Failure to do so causes xrandr to report
        incorrect property values.

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu17) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * debian/apport-gpu-error-intel.py:
        + Disable freeze hook.  We've got ample bug reports now which should
          cover the range of bugs people are seeing, and the script is mostly
          capturing dupes now.  We might re-enable it later once these bugs
          are sorted out, if we want more data.
          (LP: #533945)

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu16) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * debian/apport-gpu-error-intel.py:
        + Better fix for checking MachineType and other parameters to
          be defined before using them in bug report titles.  Thanks Jan!
          (LP: #539533)

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu13) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * debian/apport-gpu-error-intel.py:
        + 8 characters worth of the dump signature is sufficient for dupe
          identification
        + Identify error code from PGTBL_ER or ESR if non-zero
        + Mention machine type in title if available

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu12) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * debian/rules:  Dropping the --enable-kms-only flag from revision
        2:2.9.1-1ubuntu4.  Subsequent discussion indicates that sticking
        with 2.9 and preserving UMS as a fallback option will help users
        still seeing severe issues with KMS but not UMS (e.g. 8xx owners).

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu10) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * debian/apport-gpu-error-intel.py:
        + check_ignored() can be called only after ExecutablePath is defined
          (LP: #530650)

      * debian/apport-gpu-error-intel.py:
        + Add several new chipnames (thanks Geir!)
        + Remove duplicate attach_hardware() call
     -- Bryce Harrington <email address hidden>   Wed, 03 Mar 2010 09:55:35 -0800
  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu8) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * debian/apport-gpu-error-intel.py:
        + Set the default title for freeze reports to "GPU lockup"
        + Determine the chipset, and prepend it to the title
        + Calculate a signature of the dump so we can more easily identify
          dupe freezes.  Append to the title.
        + Include i915_error_state if it exists

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu4) lucid; urgency=low
    
      * debian/rules: Build -intel to enable KMS only, no UMS.  UMS
        will be removed in version 2.10 so we don't plan to support
        it in Lucid.
     -- Bryce Harrington <email address hidden>   Fri, 05 Feb 2010 17:17:49 -0800
  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1ubuntu3) lucid; urgency=low

    xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream bugfix release (closes: #508005).
        + reverts change from 2.9.0 that broke DVI detection for some people
          (closes: #548045)

  • xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.9.0-1ubuntu2) karmic; urgency=low
    
      * Add 100_drop_fb_from_crtc.patch.  Fixes lockup with black screen on
        logout of KDE with KMS enabled.  Patch zeroes out the framebuffer id
        to clean up on screen closure.  Cherrypick from upstream.
