am i?

I'm running the same version and I have crashes.

Yes - that's expected, so give your +1 on the launchpad bug I have linked. The patch is just 5 lines ... but if they don't pick it, that will continue.

Since I have little hope this will be fixed for trusty final:
I've uploaded a fixed version (mesa - 10.1.0-4ubuntu6) to my mesa ppa: ppa:wsnipex/mesa


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - fritsch - 2014-04-16

Thanks much - I will add this to the howto.

I did a fresh install and the only thing I am having trouble with is my remote. It is a Harmony One. I am using an Arctic MC001N.

My lirc.conf

Any suggestions?

EDIT: nevermind. Apparantly restarting lirc isn't enough. I had to reboot the box to get the remote to work.

Thanks a lot ?

Thank you for this! I personally haven't had a crash since doing the native 14.04 for install but nice to know I have piece of mind with the WAF for this install Smile.

dpkg -l |grep mesa | pastebinit

Here you go.

Some more 3.14.1 PLL patches for 24p:

Code:
wget https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55728161/linux-headers-3.14.1-amdfixes2_1.0_amd64.deb https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/55728161/linux-image-3.14.1-amdfixes2_1.0_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i *amdfixes2*deb

Those patches can be found on OpenELEC github in the linux/patches/3.14.1 directory.

I had saucy installed and I'd rather dist-upgrade and fix the issues than re-install (my htpc also is a server for multiple services), but the dist upgrade is trying to remove:
Code:
icu-tools libharfbuzz0a libperl5.14 nginx-full php5-fpm python-imaging-compat xserver-xorg-video-ati
Most importantly: nginx-full php5-fpm xserver-xorg-video-ati

My sources.list (complete)
Code:
deb http://ar.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main restricted

What am I missing ?(I'm going to add the mesa ppa after the dist-upgrade)
Thanks

EDIT:
After adding universe and multiverse to the repo, only
Code:
icu-tools libharfbuzz0a libperl5.14 libvlccore5 xserver-xorg-video-ati
will be removed, note xserver-xorg-video-ati


RE: Radeon OSS with vdpau (howto) - gfisher - 2014-04-17

@fritsch. Thx. I looked on git at the patch, is it 210 limit vs 100 limit the only change (my OE pull had that)? Those 24p pll patches make the oss driver much better, even at other frame rates. Lots less skips! @wsnipex thx for the mesa ppa. Stop bug was not WAF friendly.

I had libglamor0=0.6-0-git~... , running
Code:
apt-get install libglamor0=0.6.0-0ubuntu4
fixed the broken deps for xserver-xorg-video-ati.

Everything is working on my now-trusty install

Clean install xubuntu64 14.04 release w/ pa. All good. Your PLL patch kernel is better than release kernel >> 24p is 23.98 most the time. Smile. Also using wsnipex mesa with stop bug fix. No crashing. A4-3400 apu HDMI to lcd directly.
