[00:06] * Hobbsee waves to bdmurray [00:08] bdmurray, do you have any objection to me providing a generic 1 line reply to why I changed the status of a bug that I am triaging to incomplete? I am finding that a lot of reporters like to change there status to something that isn't in the best interest of their report. [00:08] * bdmurray waves back to Hobbsee [00:09] Okay 2 sentences... "* A bug-control triager has elected to look at this issue and has flagged the status as incomplete. Once enough information is provided so that the developers can carry on with issue it will be marked as confirmed then triaged." [00:09] I figure it will minimize me having to correct bug statues all day... [00:09] then explaining why after the fact. [00:09] What kind of confusion are you seeing? [00:10] i was just wondering that. surely if you ask for information, then it is clear why you set it to incomplete? [00:10] today 1 marked a bug as "in progress" when it wasn't... some are confirming their own bugs... some are setting it to other various statuses. [00:10] and a lot of people never reset the bug status after giving the information [00:11] I have a lot of people who mark the bug as "new" after they provide information [00:12] Setting bugs back to do isn't really harmful [00:12] s/do/new/ ;-) [00:12] Well it's not really harmful to confirm you own bug either but I am trying to be as helpful as possible when I touch a bug... [00:13] confirming your own bugs should be discouraged though [00:13] It just reduces the likely hood it will draw the wrong attention from the wrong group (not so much for new) [00:13] setting the bug to new after providing data is actually quite a good move [00:13] chrisccoulson, which is another reply I seem to be typing a lot... after the fact. [00:14] hggdh - yeah, I agree. the more annoying move is when someone comes along and changes from Incomplete -> Confirmed without leaving a comment or providing the required info [00:14] chrisccoulson, I agree. Perhaps an option would be to have a link in the bug to the rules of the game [00:15] like a WARNING: read the meaning before using [00:15] heh [00:15] Perhaps - but that might get annoying if you couldn't turn it off by default. and there's always a risk of information overload too [00:15] hggdh, It's not really valid with the criteria though... A "new" bug is defined on "https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status" as being untriaged. [00:16] if I am in the process of triaging a bug... it has been touched... [00:16] sectech, I know. But what status should I put after I responded a question? Note that my response might not be enough to have the bug in confirmed [00:16] ergo, new [00:16] hggdh: i'm sure that "warning: Please use a brain and think" would not get accepted as a warning :P [00:17] or similar [00:17] Hobbsee, we can only hope ;-) [00:17] (unfortunately( [00:17] hggdh, I would leave it as incomplete until the triager has enough information to confirm it or mark it as triaged... It technically is still incomplete until we can at least figure out what is going on... [00:17] Brain: Do not discard -- use it [00:17] I get an email every time someone replies anyway, so I know they submitted a reply. [00:18] "Please use a brain and think" would be no use to me. I can't find my brain most of the time so I would just skip over it ;) [00:18] and I would hope that triagers wouldn't abandon their bugs once they touched hem [00:18] err them [00:18] it is indeed -- but not everybody subscribes to a bug [00:18] IMHO that's a triager issue... [00:19] I am not saying it is correct or incorrect, but that we have to adjust the theory to reality [00:19] it is a triager issue, this is where most of the folks that want to help start to learn [00:19] I would rather a triager add there comments to a bug and not change the status from new to incomplete if they didn't intend on working on it. [00:19] sectech - no, triagers shouldn't abandon a bug, and they should be subscribed to bugs they are triaging. but there are cases when a bug is really difficult to triage. in those cases, you can subscribe someone else, ask here, or set it back to New where another triager will pick it up [00:19] it also, unfortunately, something that is left for others after they new triagers learn the ropes [00:20] true enough hggdh .... [00:20] Maybe the distro bug filing instructions should have information about bug statuses and how they are used. [00:21] sectech - just had a look at bug 305308 [00:21] Launchpad bug 305308 in etcinsvk "I cannot say anything about it" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/305308 [00:21] very strange. i can't even get it to install on intrepid because of dependency issues [00:21] It would be less confusing to the reporter to see why a bug was marked as incomplete and that they don't need to do anything special other then provide the info asked for... takes the guess work out for a new reporter, and comes across as less intimidating... [00:21] i don't know how the reporter got it as far as configuring the pacakge [00:22] bdmurray, I agree. You also should know my feelings pretty well by now: we have to few stati on Malone [00:22] chrisccoulson, yeah that one I decided to get the ball rolling on.... He got a generic reply but it's only because those replies are pretty clear on what we need [00:23] but I still think it would be cool if Malone sported a link to the instructions -- this is where most new users go straight to, not to the wiki [00:23] I had a feeling that one would just sit there out in never never land if he didn't add more to it [00:23] yeah, probably! [00:24] the bug description really describes the problem well :) [00:24] chrisccoulson, lol yeah I'll probably change that for him once I figure out what he is talking about... [00:25] My thoughts behind triaging is to make this as easy as possible on the person reporting it... All they should be concerned with is reporting the problem they are having... answering questions and we should take it from there. [00:25] Personally I love it when other traigers jump in and help... [00:25] I am not trying to discourage that either [00:29] Also the argument could be said that if I have 150 bugs in my list and I see one suddenly changed to "fix released" I think that progress happened and someone took over such as a developer and tend to look at it last. [00:33] Hope you don't mind me jumping in here guys...but the amount of open new bugs from Hardy is ridiclous...thats where most of our stats are going, and a lot have been fixed in Intrepid, there are currently 1500+ but I believe the reality is somewhere around 750 judging by the amount of crap I've gone through of the oldies [00:34] I bet you could find some from gusty still too [00:34] Not any more I've got rid of all of them [00:34] xteejx, it is impossible for triagers and developers to get to them all [00:34] Well chronologically anyway I'm going thru hardy at the mo [00:35] It's awesome to have someone doing that, thank you :) [00:35] sectech, of course it is, and i believe in us triagers and the devs etc, and i love ubuntu and the community, but without a handful of people checking on the old crunf our bug stats will always be wrong [00:36] i mean there was about 50 n-p bugs open, not checked in debian or ubuntu just sitting there lol [00:36] xteejx, try triaging a bug that was created in 2006 from 2 versions before that is marked new lol [00:37] there isnt any ;) [00:37] there might not be now lol [00:37] earliest open new one now is bug 243833 - june 2008 [00:37] Launchpad bug 243833 in ubuntu "Sony PSP Read-Only File" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/243833 [00:37] ........ seriously?

[19:50] i want to start with some simple bugs [19:50] in ubuntu [19:51] !bitesize [19:51] A list of bugs that are considered easy to fix and good for beginners to attempt can be found at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bugs?field.tag=bitesize [19:51] OSWExplorer: with fixing bugs or triaging bugs? [19:51] fixing bugs === jsamuel is now known as OSWExplorer [19:57] I am a newbie here, but want to look at some simple bugs, thanks for the previos link, but m not able to figure out where to begin [19:58] Can anybody help me or point me to some documentation links [19:58] ? [19:59] !bugsquad [19:59] Sorry, I don't know anything about bugsquad [20:04] OSWExplorer: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix might be of some help [20:05] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/GettingInvolved and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage too [20:06] Thanks for that link [20:06] thanks [21:16] ping james_w - i just noticed you were the reporter of bug 238799. someone else experiencing it posted some info which suggests there's no bug in policykit. i just wondered if you can recreate it? if so, how do you recreate it, as I can't seem to do it? [21:16] Launchpad bug 238799 in policykit "policykit not available over Vnc sessions" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/238799 === andre___ is now known as andre__ [22:03] chrisccoulson: hey. I believe I reported that as I was splitting up a bug where many people were reporting similar issues [22:03] i just had another response on it [22:04] its not actually a bug [22:04] chrisccoulson: so I've never tried to reproduced, but yes, it's more of a dbus problem I think [22:04] the way they set up the VNC server means their session is not on a local console, so PK won't grant them authorizations [22:04] so it's a configuration issue. if you change the PK settings to grant to anyone, then it works ok [22:05] i think, anyway. i'm just about to test it. i can recreate the same behaviour over SSH too [22:06] ogasawara: I got a commenter on bug 213600 to sumbit a new bug since it was very incomplete. Sould I make that a duplicate of the new one? [22:06] Launchpad bug 213600 in linux "HP Pavilion HDX 9050 EG - no TV tuner detected" [Medium,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/213600 [22:07] bdmurray: yah, just dup it [22:07] is it recommended to use an Ubuntu distro for submitting patches, fixes, or is it ok to run it on an emulator? [22:07] mbuf - could you elaborate? [22:09] chrisccoulson, is it ok to use a different distro for host OS, when working on Ubuntu bugs, which are run on an emulator? [22:10] it depends what work you're doing. if you're testing patches, they should be built on the distro that they're targetted at (whether that be in a chroot or whatever). you're probably better off directing that sort of question in #ubuntu-motu [22:10] chrisccoulson: thanks for looking at it, I think you are totally right [22:11] james_w - i think that might be the case. it might close a few other bugs too because i'm sure i've seen various bugs before about PK not working over network connections [22:11] yeah [22:13] * joumetal wonders if anything could be done to bug 59160 [22:13] Launchpad bug 59160 in malone "Tags box and search results differ in their bug counts" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/59160 [22:13] hmmmm, that's a launchpad bug though [22:14] chrisccoulson: people who use LTSP run in to this, and fixing it for that would be good. That might be a fix somewhere in LTSP though [22:14] possibly. i'm not too familiar with LTSP though [22:14] joumetal: there's a greasemonkey script that resolves the list of tags being too long [22:32] under Filters in bugs list, what is the difference between an "Open", "Unassigned", and a "New" bug? [22:37] Open includes bug statuses like New, Incomplete, Confirmed, Triaged, In Progress and Fix Committed [22:37] New is just New [22:37] And unassigned is any bugs that are open and not assigned to someone [22:39] bdmurray, thanks [22:39] no problem [23:55] hello [23:55] * Hobbsee waves [23:56] nvidia seems to be epically unstable on VT switches. Several switches vt7<->vt1 (gfx<->text) or vt7<->vy8 (gfx<->gfx) ALWAYS gives crash (hard freeze) (or glitches [23:56] nv, or binary drivers? [23:56] recently I learned this problem is very wide spread [23:56] binary [23:56] well, go talk to nvidia then. [23:56] but [23:56] same is for intel. [23:57] although intel is limited to showing glitches after few switches, instead of freez [23:57] * Hobbsee can't reproduce that, incidently. [23:58] not many people use switching at all, but if you ask you should learn it is common [23:58] this problem exists for year(s) on nvidia, and recently on intel from my own experience [23:58] can we work around it [23:58] no idea. [23:58] ask bryce, but i doubt he's around, or will be for the next week [23:58] and check for bugs [23:59] btw, sox seems to not work almost at all [23:59] like, reading raw format [23:59] * Hobbsee thought we had a bugtracker for a reason. [23:59] and accidentially audacity crashes like crazy - which leaves us without any sound editing usable tools
