| unfo | hi all. Could someone running Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) please volunteer to log into a text console such as tty1? After you enter your username and password, does Ubuntu then tell you a web site you can go to for help? If so, what is the entire line telling you how to get help? | 04:19 |
|---|---|---|
| wgrant | To access official Ubuntu documentation, please visit: | 04:19 |
| wgrant | http://help.ubuntu.com/ | 04:19 |
| unfo | wgrant: thank you. | 04:19 |
| wgrant | (from sshing into a Hardy box) | 04:19 |
| unfo | good enough | 04:19 |
| unfo | wgrant: I use Debian. Thanks for confirming what the Ubuntu after-login message says for me. I have now filed bug 285734. In the new wording I chose inside my patch, I mentioned help.ubuntu.com. | 04:41 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 285734 in base-files "[PATCH] Tell users how to undo accidental Ctrl+Alt+F1 presses in /etc/issue" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/285734 | 04:41 |
| wgrant | unfo: It makes no sense to put it in /etc/issue. | 04:42 |
| unfo | wgrant: then where? | 04:43 |
| wgrant | Not there. I'm not sure. | 04:43 |
| wgrant | But /etc/issue is wrong. | 04:43 |
| unfo | wgrant: why not /etc/issue? | 04:43 |
| wgrant | Hmmm, I guess if it is only used locally it's OK. | 04:44 |
| unfo | wgrant: what does "used locally" mean? | 04:45 |
| wgrant | unfo: It wouldn't be inconceivable that /etc/issue would be used for other login means. | 04:45 |
| Hobbsee | wgrant: ie, ssh'd in users will see it, and it would be wrong for them? | 04:45 |
| wgrant | Not just local ttys. | 04:45 |
| Nafallo | unfo: that it wouldn't make sense for people ssh'ing in ;-) | 04:45 |
| * Hobbsee ^5 Nafallo | 04:45 | |
| unfo | wgrant, Nafallo, ah. But unless someone can think of a better solution, I think /etc/issue is the best place to put it. | 04:46 |
| unfo | s/ wgrant/ Hobbsee | 04:46 |
| unfo | when I type "ssh localhost", my /etc/issue is *not* shown. All I see is the following: | 04:55 |
| unfo | "Password: " | 04:56 |
| unfo | Could someone else try ssh'ing to a Ubuntu computer by a different way and tell me if /etc/issue is shown or not? | 04:56 |
| unfo | *please | 04:56 |
| Hobbsee | er, it only is if you uncomment #Banner /etc/issue.net | 04:58 |
| unfo | Hobbsee: so are you able to confirm that changing /etc/issue does not affect users who ssh in? | 04:59 |
| Hobbsee | seems so. | 04:59 |
| unfo | Hobbsee: thanks. may I quote you by name like this? "Hobbsee thought that /etc/issue might be shown when people ssh in, but it is not, unless you change the 'Banner; sshd setting." | 05:00 |
| unfo | s/;/' | 05:00 |
| wgrant | Agentless passive is better. | 05:01 |
| unfo | will use the agentless passive then. | 05:01 |

| G__81 | RainCT, Let me do it | 11:38 |
| G__81 | how do i close it | 11:41 |
| G__81 | and whats the comment that i ve to give | 11:41 |
| RainCT | G__81: Status: Invalid, Comment: something like "Thanks for your bug report but this particular package is no longer in Ubuntu." | 11:42 |
| RainCT | G__81: btw, there are useful comment boilerplates on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses | 11:43 |
| RainCT | btw, if some bugsquad guy is around, I disagree with the "About an incorrect translation" text | 11:44 |
| G__81 | RainCT, So if you say the bug is closed you set it to invalid ? | 11:45 |
| G__81 | RainCT, What if the bug if fixed and passed everything and what state do you set that to ? | 11:45 |
| RainCT | (there are many communities were people shouldn't never just go to translations.launchpad.net and do something.. beside that they can't, because it would just be marked as a suggestion) | 11:46 |
| RainCT | G__81: if it's fixed mark it as "Fix Released", and explain that it's fixed in Intrepid | 11:46 |
| G__81 | Oh ok | 11:47 |
| RainCT | G__81: but you've to be sure that it's really fixed.. there are some bugs which can't be reproduced by everyone | 11:47 |
| G__81 | i am just trying to install Hardy in Qemu but not able to :( | 11:47 |
| G__81 | RainCT, Closed the bug :) | 12:10 |
| RainCT | G__81: Great :) The last sentence is a bit confusing, though | 12:19 |
| G__81 | RainCT, I ve triaged my first bug :) | 12:24 |

| G__81 | RainCT, when will the karma get updated | 12:27 |

| ByteJuggler | hello all | 15:30 |
| ByteJuggler | :) | 15:30 |
| ByteJuggler | anyone alive? | 15:31 |
| charlie-tca | !anyone | 15:31 |
| ubottu | A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..." Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out? | 15:31 |
| ByteJuggler | hehe, ok ok didn't want to be rude... but you're right I have another question | 15:32 |
| ByteJuggler | for reference, I'm testing Intrepid and I've "imported" 2 accounts from the windows partitino | 15:33 |
| ByteJuggler | It's done a number of interesting things, which I'm not sure whether they qualify as bugs (and whether I should report them as seperate issues or as one) | 15:34 |
| ByteJuggler | and against which project (ubiquity I'd imagine) | 15:34 |
| ByteJuggler | firstly, there were 2 accounts | 15:34 |
| ByteJuggler | but it's not actually created a corresponding account for the 2 on ubuntu | 15:35 |
| ByteJuggler | (aside: the account username of one of the accounts is the same as the one I created on intrepid on installation) | 15:35 |
| ByteJuggler | the installer however imported the desktop picture on the other windows account | 15:36 |
| ByteJuggler | (that may be because there was no desktop on the matching account) | 15:36 |
| ByteJuggler | secondly re the import | 15:36 |
| ByteJuggler | no files on the desktop was actually imported, only the files in the My Documents folder | 15:36 |
| ByteJuggler | that may be ok but it might confuse users who save files (temporarily? permanently?) on their desktop | 15:37 |
| ByteJuggler | so, my question: which package do I report against? | 15:37 |
| ByteJuggler | which of these issues qualify as bugs and which as feature enhancements/requests | 15:37 |
| ByteJuggler | if need be, just tell me to go read the blueprints on launchpad | 15:38 |
| ByteJuggler | (I'm just also trying to avoid wasting my own time unnecesarily) | 15:38 |
| charlie-tca | I think it should import files on the Desktop, but you can ask in #ubuntu+1, which are the people testing Intrepid | 15:39 |
| ByteJuggler | ah ok, sorry so I'm in the wrong channel lol | 15:39 |
| charlie-tca | I'd report it against ubuntu-migration-assistant | 15:39 |
| charlie-tca | Only wrong for part of it | 15:39 |
| ByteJuggler | ok thanks... :) | 15:41 |
| charlie-tca | np | 15:44 |
| charlie-tca | ByteJuggler: If you need to ask a question and a channel is busy, just ask anyway. Someone will | 15:50 |
| charlie-tca | usually answer. Most of us are working on stuff, and don't always see right away. | 15:51 |
