[01:43] Bug #314494 [01:43] Launchpad bug 314494 in samba "Cant install samba" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/314494 [01:43] I have a question about the handling of this bug if someone has a second :-) [01:45] ask away [01:46] Thanks crimsun, this wasn't really a bug, I just pointed the reporter in the right direction and solved their issue, how should I set the status? I am thinking Invalid because it wasn't really a bug, right? [01:48] I didn't actually look at it, but maybe convert it to a question? [01:48] no, it's a bug [01:48] the package needs to handle nonexistent files gracefully [01:49] i.e., the action "remove" should not fail, and one should not need to "purge" to workaround the failure proceeding the "remove" action [01:50] oh, Should I then check to see if that same thing happens when I try removing samba, then confirm it, basically commenting what you just said about gracefully handling file removal if I have the same results as the reporter? [01:51] well, no. I doubt that you'll be able to reproduce it. [01:51] you should ask the submitter for more debugging information. [01:52] or let a maintainer deal with that :) [01:52] itnet7: if you can reproduce it in a fully updated install (or vm), that would be great [01:52] i'll it to my TODO this evening [01:52] i'll add it* (...) [01:55] Thanks to you both... I will bring up a vm and see If I can duplicate it too [01:59] why don't we have virtualbox ready images? [02:00] the ones i've seen are vmware.... [02:00] and they seems forgotten... [02:00] it would be helpful... [02:00] of what? ubuntu installs? [02:01] although vmbuilder is pretty nice... [02:01] yeap.. for reproducing bugs... [02:01] that would be nice, i use vbox, though i want to switch to vmware sometime i think [02:01] http://isv-image.ubuntu.com/vmware/ [02:01] have you tested 2.1? [02:02] i never got intrepid to run in a vm though [02:02] the networking part is perfect.. all the vbox0, br0 hassle is gone!! [02:02] no i havent, im excited about the networking stuff though [02:02] no more bridging [02:03] yeap! i was testing it today and it can use wlan0 or eth0, and that's pretty nice [02:04] is 2.1 in backports? [02:04] the bad side of vms is the space consumption... [02:04] ah, its only in jaunty [02:04] i've got my disk full because of them.. [02:04] i'm using virtualbox repo, so i've got the puel.. [02:05] i dont have more than a handful of VMs, and i have plenty of space to go around [02:05] im still in hardy on this desktop, too [02:05] i wasnt sure my nvidia card would play nice with intrepid and dual head [02:05] ohh, i've got the servers in hardy (well there're some still in dapper thou) and desktop with intrepid [02:06] cool, ive needed a stable setup on this box, it's too much of a pain dealing with upgrades when you gotta drag along nvidia drivers and vbox ose modules and whatnot [02:07] they kept throwing upgraded kernels at hardy, too [02:09] for the modules try woth dkms [02:09] it's great! [02:09] there's a tiny bug with 1.6.6 you need to purge the package [02:09] after that every time you update your kernel it would auto compile the new modules [02:09] 1.6.6 of what? dkms? [02:10] vbox 1.6.6 [02:10] i have 1.5.6 [02:10] a file was left at /var/lib/dkms that made the vbox's modules auto compilation fail.. [02:10] ohhh [02:11] that's the good thing of vbox it's a nice piece of software, stable you don't feel the urge of upgrade [02:11] i havent used dkms at all, i probably should learn [02:11] if i'm not wrong it's already at hardy... [02:11] ls /var/lib/dkms [02:12] dkms_dbversion? [02:14] i just need to do an intrepid upgrade sometime, i suppose i'll get to that soon and pray that the nvidia stuff works ok [02:14] around vbox 1.6.something they are using dkms, so it would put some vbox dirs on that.. but it's better to go directly to 2.1 [02:15] they should backport 2.1 to intrepid [02:16] http://albertomilone.com/wordpress/?p=212 (for nvidia thing don't know how updated is the info thou) [02:17] thanks, i use his EnvyNG in Hardy b/c the drivers in the repos failed and so did a manual install [02:19] gonna go afk for a bit, catch ya later andresmujica [02:22] ok! === kc8tad is now known as rrittenhouse [07:00] good morning [07:39] good morning bugsquad [07:41] thekorn: hiya [07:42] hello maco [09:43] hi [09:45] #314919 should be set to 'Wishlist' [10:52] dholbach: ping [10:52] andresmujica: pong [10:52] hi dholbach, how are u? [10:52] good good - how 'bout you? [10:52] nice, thks... but i've messed with my 5-a-a-day [10:52] i've changed my launchpad login [10:52] and now there's 2 me on the stats page... [10:53] :( [10:53] 2 you? [10:53] like two entries of yours? [10:54] yeap [10:54] andres-mujica [10:54] and andres.mujica [10:54] the new lp is andres.mujica [10:55] ah, here's what you can do: [10:55] i've just managed to reconfigure .5-a-day within my hme, so i can report again.. [10:55] * andresmujica takes note [10:56] - copy all the bug number of your ~/.5-a-day-/data to ~/.5-a-day-/data and in the new directory run bzr commit -m "merged old bug numbers"; bzr push [10:56] - try to delete the old branch in code.launchpad.net/~ [10:56] if that doesn't work out, just forget about the old one :) [10:57] ok let me try... [10:57] copy from old name to new name, right? [10:57] no [10:57] copy the bug numbers of the one file to the other one [11:03] ok, it seems it's done.. [11:03] alright [11:34] hey, where's the debugging procedure for hibernate (suspend to DISK) ?? [11:47] oo oh i've found it.. [15:04] Boo [17:27] hello all [17:28] anyone can mark bug 214439 as triaged? [17:28] Launchpad bug 214439 in xserver-xorg-video-tdfx "Quake engine games freeze if video settings changed" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/214439 [18:12] torkiano, why triaged? the bug is still in status new; also, the last entry states "... I think ...", which does not sound, to me, as being a confirmation [20:04] Hello [20:05] cyril__: hello [20:05] I make some work on bug 298592, but i don't know how to propose more work on this bug [20:05] Launchpad bug 298592 in kdebase-workspace "KDM can't use language choosen in systemsettings" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/298592 [20:06] I'm bring it up in #kubuntu-devel [21:10] james_w: What is the workflow for your merge proposal in Launchpad? [21:12] bdmurray: from the link in the email you can write a review and vote on it [21:12] if you are happy with it then you can merge as normal [21:12] then edit the merge proposal to change the status to "merged" [21:12] you do that by clicking the edit link next to the status, near the top of the page [21:13] it's a lot better than it was, but it's still not quite there [21:13] though if you merge and push to launchpad it may mark it as merged automatically, I can't remember [21:14] neat, and how did you request the merge proposal? [21:17] "Propose this branch for merging" or similar on the branch page [21:17] I believe you will be able to do it via email soon [21:17] and through the API one day [21:21] ahhh, "one day" ;) [21:21] yes, "one day" is on my calendar but it keeps moving [21:22] I know what you mean! It keeps hopping around, just out of my reach. === ivoks_ is now known as ivoks [21:46] hello [21:47] it would seem that all main media players in ubuntu 8.04 fail epically when trying to play media, because of bugs in playlist implementations [21:47] I find this highly embarassing. Is it possible to make some meta-bug and therefore resolve it with higher priority (not just one program fails, but all that could do given task) [21:50] LimCore: it would make most sense to report specific application bugs. no need for a metabug [21:51] metabugs tend to be overlooked by the people who actually do the fixing [21:52] the prefered first step would be to submit (or find) a bug with steps to reproduce in launchpad and then also the upstream's bug tracker (since they are the ones who actually know the code of the application) [21:52] ehh ok [21:53] does that not make sense? [21:53] it makes [21:53] but volounteers alone seem to not always give expected result in timely maner [21:54] I don't think that contradicts anything I said above [21:54] if there is an issue, please report it [21:54] ok I will [21:55] thanks. [21:55] any chance i can get another triager to have a look at my bug 313567 for me? [21:55] Launchpad bug 313567 in linux "[Jaunty] Suspend/resume restarts X session" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/313567 [21:56] it would be a shame if that behavior made it through to jaunty release [21:56] Rocket2DMn, is this on Jaunty? [21:56] yessir [21:57] somebody tagged it as regression-potential, it is indeed a regression [21:57] hum. I will give it a go, and see if it I am also affected [21:57] brb [21:58] Rocket2DMn: regression-potential means it is in a regression in the development release [21:58] ah, news to me thanks bdmurray [21:59] btw bdmurray i just gave ubuntu-bug a test (it exists in hardy, not just intrepid). i'll update my guide when the forums are stable [21:59] back [22:00] any luck hggdh > [22:00] no, I resumed without even being asked for password [22:00] on the other hand, I got a kernel oops [22:00] heh [22:00] lol [22:00] let me see what was the oops [22:01] interesting: this is where I got the oops: 426656660207002 [22:01] dammit [22:01] Component: resume devices [22:01] where are you pulling the oops from? kern.log? [22:01] dmesg [22:02] ah k [22:02] whoa X got all messed up wheni resumed this time, WHAT is going on! [22:02] i like how TTYs come and go on that laptop, sometimes they work sometimes they dont [22:03] * LimCore cleans room [22:03] Rocket2DMn, I am no expert on suspend (*never* supended before): are you expected to re-authenticate? [22:04] hggdh, normally it is like a locked screen, it just wants your password [22:04] (sorry, wrong window) [22:04] whats happening here is that X session is restarted, so i have to login all over again [22:04] I go *no* request: [22:04] so you get a GDM restart, I get my session as it was [22:04] check your power options [22:04] and a koops [22:05] yeah youre supposed to get your session back, just as you left it [22:06] Yes, I expect I would get the session as it was, but I also expected to have to authenticate [22:07] Rocket2DMn, what is you kernel package version? [22:09] 2.6.28-4-generic [22:09] * hggdh is running 2.6.28-3-generic ... 2.6.28-4.9 fails to load [22:10] i had the problem all through jaunty as long as i remmeber [22:10] ah, got apport kicked on the koops [22:10] reporting it [22:11] i was hoping to get my bug triaged, i reported it last weekend [22:11] since i cant really triage my own bug :( [22:11] weird... apport states problem cannot be reported, because linux-image-2.6.28-3-generic is not a genuine Ubuntu package [22:11] now THAT is surprising [22:11] lol, file it against linux [22:12] yes, but I am losing apport's auto upload of problem data. This is ridiculous [22:21] hggdh: it might be because your kernel is not up to date [22:22] bdmurray, any idea about my suspend/resume bug? [22:22] bdmurray, I can understand if this is the reason but: (1) the message is misleading; (2) I cannot boot with current -4 [22:23] hum. Will try another boot on current, JIC [22:23] brb [22:24] Rocket2DMn: looking [22:28] can you add your menu.lst file to the bug? [22:31] sure [22:32] done [22:33] yay, I drop straight into BusyBox on 2.6.28-4 [22:33] your kernel isn't trying to resume from suspend [22:34] ## e.g. defoptions=vga=791 resume=/dev/hda5 [22:34] # defoptions=quiet splash [22:34] no, this is on a full reboot [22:35] i dont understand bdmurray , i did two installs of jaunty [22:37] you just listed 2 comments [22:40] Sorry, I was confused about suspend vs hibernate [22:40] k [22:41] The output of dmesg after resuming from suspend might be helpful [22:42] Rocket2DMn: also have you seen https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingKernelSuspend ? [22:43] o_0 i swore that was attached already, lol, ill get that right away [22:43] yeah i know about that page, thanks [22:44] you want me to do that stuff on the wiki page or just get the dmesg? [22:47] ah i had the dmesg.txt file i just neve ruploaded it [22:48] alright bdmurray , i uploaded dmesg, i havent done the wiki page stuff yet [22:48] thanks for sticking through this [22:51] Its probably really an X bug [22:51] i thought it might be, i filed it under linux b/c it is suspend resume though [22:51] i discussed it in here before i filed it i think [22:53] bdmurray, would you make a note on the bug of your analysis and change the package as necessary? it would be nice to have a more professional opinion on the report so that the X guys don't think i'm crazy [22:54] Rocket2DMn: you could ping someone in #ubuntu-x and see what they thing [22:57] k, i'm in there now bdmurray , thank you [22:57] we'll see if anybody bites [23:38] how can I mark a bug as 'wishlist'?
