I'm sure there is a long tail of electron apps, but chromium and code should cover most of it.. I can send additional MRs to mesa for other apps if folks request additional exe names
<tobhe[m]>
signal was one more I remember someone complained about. I think the snap also ships a workaround
<tobhe[m]>
but this should cover the most important ones
<robclark>
ok.. for signal, I guess "signal" is what shows up in ps? I can add that
<tobhe[m]>
I think it is actually signal-desktop
<tobhe[m]>
not sure if it differs between native and snap package
<robclark>
I guess inside snap container, it is the same name? And then snap stuff just needs the identical w/a?
<tobhe[m]>
probably yes

kalebris: there's quite a few differences between jhovold's tree and 6.16, about 50 patches or so? i think maybe less (i have ~70 patches here which i base on top of his for 6.16)
tobhe has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
<steev>
maybe closer to 40 patches - most are venus related fixes though, so 6.16 can be used without them

speaking of 6.16, has anyone seen the gpu refuse to power up with it? (-22)
<steev>
i don't see anything actually in .4 that would cause it, but .3 works, .4 does not
<steev>
this is the x13s
<Treibholz[m]>
I'm still on 6.16.3 - thanks for the warning :-)
<icecream95>
HdkR: The decoder (at least dav1d) does post-processing directly on the output buffer, so it reads back multiple times
<icecream95>
It seems most other GPU drivers allocate CPU-cached buffers so are not affected
<\[m]>
Val Packett robclark lol I had MESA_EXTENSION_OVERRIDE=-GL_ARB_base_instancie in my etc/environment trying to fix that angle bug
<icecream95>
I'm actually quite impressed that the total CPU usage (for 4K AV1) is only 4-6x what it should be, I expected it to be higher

Hey! I'm currently trying to compile the Ubuntu 25.04 concept kernel for my Surface Laptop 7. I have GPU acceleration and display out. I believe I'm using the default device tree as well, but what I'm lacking is Wi-Fi support. Any pointers on what patches I should make to ath12k to get my wifi card recognized?
<programmerin-wonderland>
The reason I'm using that kernel and not https://github.com/tj90241/linux/ is tj's kernel seems to not boot without cutmem on 64GB and when I use cutmem it seems like my GPU quits working :/ (I am unsure if thats related to cutmem or the kernel but he reportedly has GPU working so I am assuming cutmem)
<tobhe[m]>
of course you'll have to figure out how that is supposed to look on your device
<tobhe[m]>
to test device trees you don't have to recompile the entire thing. you can just built the dtb, drop it into /boot and load it with grub
<programmerin-wonderland>
Gotcha, I wasn't sure if I needed to add wifi to dtb since it was attached with PCIE and not some weird thing. For some reason I was hoping it would just be discovered automatically
<JensGlathe[m]>
Power Sequencing is the issue with ath12k

Yeah tj's devicetree didn't make any improvement for me on that kernel so I think it might be a driver thing. Has anyone else has a similar failed to start core: -110 ?
<programmerin-wonderland>
once I come back from classes today I'll try transplanting the ath12k driver from his repo into the ubuntu concept kernel repo

Yeah so that wasn't as simple as I was hoping, turns out ath12k has gone through like 5 different full refactors since 6.12

I use an older firmware as well on the slim 7x, otherwise only 2.5GHz works
programmerin-wonderland has joined #aarch64-laptops
<programmerin-wonderland>
its strange that firmware worked in tj's kernel but in the newest kernel I got the device recognized my modifying board-2.json in board-2.bin to include my device
<programmerin-wonderland>
but yeah using older firmware seems to work
<programmerin-wonderland>
the device is now hardware blocked by rfkill but that's pretty well documented and a 1 line patch in the driver so I'll try fixing that later maybe today
<programmerin-wonderland>
(atleast I think it's an older firmware, I'm just using the file from linux-firmware in ubuntu-concept and that seems to work)
<zdykstra>
hmm, $750 for a t14s with 32gb of RAM and a non-touch 1920x1200 display. Might be time to finally pull the trigger on one.
<programmerin-wonderland>
snap x elite or snap x plus?

elite

spring for it then that sounds like a wonderful little laptop

Did you end up getting the QWERTY model? Might be worth naming your price and some more specs.
<Jasper[m]>
Might do it if you still happen to have it in a month
<Jasper[m]>
Eh, little less than that
<steev>
agl: well, i was just let go today, so i apparently have a ton of free time, but if you go back through the scroll back, i noticed an issue with 6.16.4 (which was previously reported) - i did see a null pointer deref with my first reboot after adding in the fix patch so i want to make sure that was a fluke and not entirely related
<programmerin-wonderland>
oh lm-sensors works but libsensors doesn't, weird
<Jasper[m]>
@steev aw man, sorry to hear that
<Jasper[m]>
Hope you can speedily find a new job that treats you better
<steev>
still a bit numb, was not at all expecting it
<Jasper[m]>
They get enough money from my incessant OSCP attempts, they should be able to pay you fine
<JensGlathe[m]>
steev oof. Quite baffled to hear it. Hope you find a new job fast. Is Kali in trouble?
<steev>
i have no idea, truly. we are a week from release? i thought? and i was told it's not me, my performance or what i'm working on, the company is going in another direction, whatever that means i have no idea
<Jasper[m]>
more shovel certs
<programmerin-wonderland>
Is the CS job market that bad right now? Perhaps I should switch majors while I can..
<programmerin-wonderland>
I do hope you can find a career as a better company soon though, my condolences
