[04:20] DShepherd: why yes I do [04:20] bdmurray, do you have this problem also> [04:20] ?

[04:22] click the pencil by "Bug description" [04:22] bdmurray, should i open another bug and mark this one as a duplicate? [04:22] bdmurray, indeed... [04:24] I think I can confirm the e-mail addresses being transposed [04:24] bdmurray, so... do you have this problem too? [04:24] o [04:25] in hardy too bdmurray ? [04:25] I'm double checking with a different account / system [04:25] bdmurray, ok. i will do the same [04:28] bdmurray, it seems to be a problem for another account i have on this system [04:33] DShepherd: I put the package version I tested with, but I think the package is wrong [04:33] nope, by bad the package name is right [04:33] ok [04:34] The only bug I observed was the work and home e-mail addresses being transposed [04:34] bdmurray, well.. here's another.... [04:34] bdmurray, after entering information and clicking the close button all inputted info seems not to be saved. [04:34] bdmurray, is that the same for you? [04:35] no, that is not the case on Hardy [04:36] bdmurray, ... well in gutsy no matter what change you make and then you click the Close Button at the bottom right of the dialog. the information is not saved [04:37] bdmurray, you say that this is not in hardy? [04:37] That is correct, that bug does not exist in Hardy. [04:37] bdmurray, what version gnome is hardy runng? [04:37] I put the package version in the bug [04:37] bdmurray, ok [04:39] bdmurray, ok.

[04:40] no I do not [04:40] bdmurray, ok [04:43] bdmurray, do you know what i can do to kinda push this bug to be fixed? [04:44] forward it upstream for Ubuntu 8.10, for 8.04 it depends [04:45] bdmurray, by the way, does your help button do anything? [04:46] Help where? [04:47] bdmurray, on the about me dialog. does the help button do anything? [04:47] there is no help button anymore it seems [04:47] bdmurray, oh ok [04:51] bdmurray, how do i go about forwarding it upstream. Excuse my ignorance.

We have lots of bugs coming in and need to identify the most important ones. [16:50] yeah right. though I've the impression that we got far more reports after alpha releases than after the RC [16:54] I'm checking the graphs, that's weird. [16:54] yes, it's really only an impression I had, I didn't check any numbers ;) [16:55] you might be right, I'm not certain how to interpret it though [16:56] I think either all major problems are known or they even have been fixed :) [16:56] I hope so!

[18:53] bdmurray, g-p-m doesnt allow to set the cpufreq governor deliberately, you wont find options like powersave/ondemand/performance there [18:55] we default to ondemand for everything because powersave forces the lowest speed the cpu offers (in my case 133MHz for example which will likely break sound playback as the CPU cant handle the sampling rate) [18:56] (see /etc/init.d/powernowd) [18:58] the bug here is that kpowersave allows you to select such a mode [18:59] s/kpowersave/kpowermanager/ [19:00] ogra: thanks for that information, that's really useful! [19:02] ogra: dynamic also triggers the issue here [19:02] for me, "powersave" is 800mhz [19:03] lucky you :) [19:03] syke, for many people its not ... thats why we use ondemand by default :) [19:03] you could probably still test [19:04] i dont have kubuntu available here [19:04] dynamic == ondemand [19:04] I don't think it's a kubuntu issue [19:04] well, ubuntu doesnt offer any UI element to do what you do there [19:05] it might technically be an issue, but ubuntu users wont experience it [19:08] * syke sighs [19:08] if it defaults to ondemand [19:08] as you say [19:08] then, likely they will [19:08] since the issue occurs in that mode as well [19:08] sorry if I wasn't making that clear [19:15] the icon for xchat-gnome is broken after first installing, but is fine after a reboot. [19:15] it was this way in gutsy, and appears the same in hardy. [19:18] so... [19:18] is there anything else I need to add to this bug? [19:19] should I contact my canonical support rep to try and get some attention? [19:22] syke: I'm still not clear on how to recreate it in Ubuntu but I set laptop lid is closed to "Blank screen" and am listening to music from pandora.com with the lid closed [19:22] yea, the lid itself doesn't do it for me either [19:28] can you try setting the powersave mode? [19:30] syke, you said it is occuring during mode switching only [19:31] seeminglu [19:31] there is no way to switch modes in ubuntu [19:31] er [19:31] I don't mean when manually switching the policy [19:31] unless you use the commandline and know what to do [19:31] I mean when the CPU/input has been idle, and the CPU and display power down further [19:32] they wont in ondemand [19:32] ACPI modes, or whatever they are called these days [19:32] actually [19:32] they will in ondemand [19:32] ondemand will always give as much CPU as needed [19:32] I have this problem with either policy [19:32] exactly [19:32] it switches modes to do that [19:32] the thing is that you say it only occurs when you swith modes [19:32] which doesnt happen in ubuntu [19:33] I think you are confusing the powermanager/cpufreq policy [19:33] it doesnt switch from ondemand to anything ese ever [19:33] and the actual changing of power modes in the hardware [19:33] *else === nixternal_ is now known as nixternal === secretlondo is now known as secretlondon [20:12] mvo_: I've been looking at bug 216907 some more, got time to discuss?

[21:03] no but I can do [21:03] mvo_: I'm at the step before that working from this page https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptProxy#head-be0e5f3cd615e9100d4bd6d75dc57d2b19d2919a [21:03] trying to import from main apt cache to apt-proxy cache [21:04] I've just found a bug report saying this is broken [21:04] and likely to remain so [21:04] but having read the report I don't think this function is critical [21:04] so I'll bypass that step and see what happens [21:05] Arby: please try without the "/" after ubuntu [21:05] OK I will [21:26] mvo_: all seems to be working now with trailing '/' removed [21:27] I get a dialogue saying 'No Valid Mirror found. Would you like to proceed. Clicking yes will change all gutsy to hardy' [21:27] or words to that effect but a bit more verbose [21:29] mvo_: would u-m be expected to work if the machine running the proxy had no internet access and only a dvd as a repo [21:34] Arby: sort of, it would hang for a long time at startup though because it tries to connect to the net [21:35] I'm just thinking that the reporter on 216907 implied that none of the machines had access to the outside world [21:35] comment 3 just after your first comment [21:36] and I was wondering what the solution is there [21:38] mvo_: do you have any plans to teach u-m to test for an available network and behave accordingly in the future? [21:38] it's something that comes up often in the bug reports [21:39] Arby: I have a pending upload that shorten the timeout considerable (from 120s to 20s) - this should improve it a lot [21:39] Arby: its not ideal currently but there is no reliable way to tell is there is a network currently (hopefully network-manager will provide one in the future) [21:39] but its definitely something that should get fixed [21:40] mvo_: ok, I might test a dvd-via-proxy update tomorrow [21:40] it's a bit of a corner case but 216907 implies it does happen [21:41] * mvo_ nods [21:43] mvo_: last question I promise :) , is deb file://path/to/dvd.iso a valid entry in sources.list? just to save dvd's [21:44] Arby: most likely not, you could mount the iso there (using -o loop) I guess, but there is apt-cdrom add for this :) [21:45] fair enough [23:08] james_w: ping [23:09] hi bdmurray [23:09] I used 'bzr revert -r 87' and then want to get back up to date is 'bzr revert -r 88' the right way to do that? [23:10] I think so [23:10] plain "bzr revert" should do it as well I think [23:11] I tried a 'bzr pull' and that didn't work which makes sense but isn't intuitive to me at least [23:18] james_w: "bzr revert" alone will bring you all the way back to "now" [23:18] (I do this for generating CVE stats) [23:19] thanks kees [23:32] kees, james_w: be careful, it deletes files that have been added (or rather backs them up as "*~X~", but symlinks get removed) [23:42] james_w: I'm looking at bug 219209 and I'm not certain that is supposed to work.
