Rocket2DMnbug 48151 - I am going to just set this back to New unless somebody thinks I should just close it?01:14
ubottuLaunchpad bug 48151 in grub "dapper upgrade, grub-install wrote to pcmcia storage, made laptop unbootable" [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/4815101:14
charlie-tcaWhy not just close it as invalid, since no one has reproduced it since it was reported in 2006. Chances are good it has been since been fixed01:23
Rocket2DMncharlie-tca, i've been yelled at for doing that in the past01:25
Rocket2DMni already marked it as new again01:25
charlie-tcaokay01:25
Rocket2DMnthanks though01:26
Rocket2DMncharlie-tca, how about bug 22494 though, that one would be easier to mark as Fix Released, even without feedback from the OP and original confirmer01:26
ubottuLaunchpad bug 22494 in netcfg "Incorrect wireless access point detected - no way to override" [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2249401:26
charlie-tcaYes, with the "closed based on the last comments above as fixed with an update" type statement?01:30
Rocket2DMnYeah, that would be my normal response, I just got chewed out a bit the other day for some stuff, so I'm taking it slow01:31
Rocket2DMnthanks01:31
charlie-tcaI know that one.01:31
charlie-tcaYou could always say I said so, and let them chew on me.01:32
Rocket2DMnI just might :)01:32
charlie-tcaOf course, that doesn't apply to network-manager at all. I still haven't quite figured that out01:33
Rocket2DMnhehe yeah, i have yet to figure out much about networking in linux, esp wireless01:33

ubottuUbuntu bug 332211 in acpid "Cannot change screen brightness on Lenovo X61" [Undecided,Incomplete]03:27
slick666what should I do next03:27
slick666should I mark it confirmed, or new?03:27
Ryan52only mark confirmed if you verify that it happens for you.03:28
slick666ok, then this should go from incomplete back to new?03:28
Ryan52see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status03:29
slick666the person filing seems to have added all the data necessary03:29
Ryan52then Triaged fits.03:29
Ryan52"Use this when you are confident that it should be looked at by a developer and has enough information "03:29
slick666ah03:30
slick666I see03:30
slick666so I should bring this to the attention to a member of the bug control group03:31
Ryan52yep. so ask here. you should also recommend an importance for them to set.03:31
Ryan52see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Importance03:31
slick666cool, my first triage :)03:32
Ryan52hmm...how do I check when my bug control powers are going to expire? they're going to expire soon, I think.03:32
slick666this bug looks like a it's a low priority03:33
slick666"Ones that affect unusual configurations or uncommon hardware"03:33
slick666I had someone at the bugjam try it on his two IBMs and he couldn't reproduce it03:33

Ryan52bdmurray: hmm. can you extend my bug control membership? I really haven't done all that much, tho I do respond to incoming bugs on my packages, and try to work on the backlog of them. which is all I really intended on doing in the first place anyway...and my number of packages is growing, so ya..04:23
macook im trying to figure out what the heck is going on with pidgin04:32
cactaurHey, I was wondering if someone could look over this bug. I have this bug, and I found a report which was similar to it, with the same symptoms, but I'm not sure about the root cause, and I'm not even sure it's in the right package. Should I change the first report to reflect what I think, file a new bug report, or just leave my comments for someone else to handle?04:33
cactaurThis is the report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/29342404:33

tuxmaniacThe battery charge goes down rapidly below 35% . Using a Dell XPS M1210 and this has started to happen fairly recently (for the past 1 week or so) and I remember an acpi update for it. Has anyone come across similar bug?17:59
tuxmaniacor is it that my battery is screwed17:59
dantuxmaniac, does your battery have one of those external meters you can use to check the charge level on the battery itself?18:01
danyou could compare what the battery thinks to what is being reported in software18:02
BUGabundotuxmaniac: or just test it from BIOS18:02
BUGabundodoes your laptop has a "format battery" option?18:02
tuxmaniaci havent gone deep into this stuff yet becauseone thing I was very happy with this machine of mine was the Laptop Batter life of 4.5 hrs (it dropped to 3.5 hrs after a year and a half which I guess is pretty normal)18:04
tuxmaniaci will check these and get back. thanks. I am using a M1210 and yes it has a battery meter at the back18:04
