Stuff Michael Meeks is doing
|
|
This is my (in)activity log. You might like to visit my employer
Novell which is an amazing company, and also
Dell who in days of yore provided me with a
free laptop for Gnome development / conferences.
Also if you have the time to read this sort of stuff you could enlighten
yourself by going to Unraveling Wittgenstein's net or if
you are feeling objectionable perhaps here.

Mail; prodded at X drivers, did a 0.12.2
release of bootchart2.
Packaged for MeeGo and openSUSE:Factory.

Onto looking at forward porting our uxlaunch fixes,
batched some off to Auke. Dug at mutter non-functioning-ness on my
device. It seems setting
CLUTTER_VBLANK=none is the
solution; now of course - I appreciate that no doubt this is to work
around a driver bug; but is it really sane to continue to wait whole
minutes for a vblank event to occur ? (and meanwhile to block any
compositing). Could we not have a 500ms-and-no-longer approach
whereby if no vblank arrived in that time we would give up on
further waiting as a bad job (?).

Federico pointed me at this chap making beautiful
goemetric shapes from a rapid prototyping machine - sadly the
reprap has no support-material capability yet putting most of these
shapes out of the realm of possibility (thus far). Some great stl
slicing tests though.
In case it's not painfully obvious: the reflections reflected here are my
own; mine, all mine ! and don't reflect the views of Novell, The
Lithuanian Gov't or Arnold Schwarzenegger. It's also important to
realise that I'm not in on the Swedish Conspiracy.
Occasionally people ask for formal photos for conferences,
bio.
or fun.
