| tw1tch | hello all, i just watched the video from http://videos.ubuntu.com/qa/assigning-packages-to-bugs.ogg on assigning packages to bugs, in it the author says that all hibernate bugs should be assigned to "acpi-support" but some documentation from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage says that most hibernate/resume bugs should probably be asigned to gnome-power-manager, pm-utils, or the linux kernel. Is this contradictory and if so which one shou | 02:15 |
| tw1tch | right.... =) | 02:24 |
| hggdh | tw1tch, good question. Could you please email bug-control with this, and with the URLs for the pages you found? | 02:26 |
| hggdh | (at this point in time, most are sleeping) | 02:26 |
| bdmurray | the video is wrong the wiki page is right | 02:26 |
| hggdh | yo bdmurray how's life? | 02:27 |
| bdmurray | hggdh: alright | 02:27 |
| tw1tch | ok thanks guys | 02:27 |

| harrisony | anyone have experience in linking a ubuntu bug report to a launchpad bug report | 13:18 |
| harrisony | another project bug repiort | 13:18 |
| harrisony | i tried but failed pretty badly | 13:18 |
| charlie-tca | What is the bug number? | 13:18 |
| harrisony | bug 2462 is the ubuntu bug | 13:19 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 2462 in mail-notification "mail-notifcation hogging the CPU polling when internet connection lost" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2462 | 13:19 |
| harrisony | with bug 182923 being the upstream | 13:19 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 182923 in mail-notification "absence of network connection causes high CPU usage" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/182923 | 13:19 |
| charlie-tca | They are both reported in launchpad. The original bug report for 182923 was a non-ubuntu bugzilla. It should not have been carried into launchpad. | 13:22 |
| persia | harrisony, I'd suggest asking on #launchpad. I believe the model is that they should be the same bug report, and that there ought be Mail Notification, Ubuntu, Fedora, and Debian tasks. | 13:23 |
| charlie-tca | I think the only way to link the two now is make 182923 a duplicate of 2462 | 13:23 |
| persia | Or maybe the other way around, and add tasks to 192923, as upstream is more likely to be tracking 182923 | 13:24 |
| charlie-tca | true, but the duplicates against 2462 would have to be moved, also | 13:24 |

| ball | Would it be considered a bug if the install CD (for Ubuntu Server) did something to the display adaptor that left the screen unreadable? | 15:20 |
| hggdh | guess so, since -server does not install any X thingies | 15:22 |
| ball | hggdh: I think it happened after the Ubuntu splash screen | 15:24 |
| ball | Is there a key I can press to turn that off? | 15:24 |
| hggdh | no, but you can edit the boot parameters (and, perhaps, open a bug on usplash?) | 15:25 |
| ball | hggdh: how (where) do I edit boot parameters? | 15:26 |
| ball | I'm not yet brave enough to open a bug ;-) | 15:27 |
| hggdh | 2 ways: (1) when cold-booting the system; (2) editing /boot/grub/menu.lst, and then running 'sudo update-grub' | 15:27 |
| hggdh | ball, nobody will bite you if you open a bug | 15:28 |
| hggdh | and we need the feedback: if something is wrong, better correct than bypass | 15:28 |
| * ball nods | 15:28 | |
| ball | I was a little surprised that Ubuntu Server even used a splash screen. | 15:29 |
| ball | I can see it on the desktop versions, where it's safe to assume there's a framebuffer. | 15:29 |
| hggdh | usplash is boot-time only, and looks nice | 15:29 |
| hggdh | well, even my servers run with fbs | 15:29 |
| ball | hggdh: Perhaps that's a safe assumption with PC servers then. | 15:31 |
| hggdh | it might, I am not sure (I had to add the FB to the servers manually). But usplash should have worked even with a "standard" setup | 15:32 |
| ball | Ah, now when I say "framebuffer", I'm talking about the physical hardware. | 15:32 |
| ball | VGA card, basically. | 15:32 |
| * ball tries to get used to Linux terminology | 15:33 | |
| hggdh | it still should work, with 640x480 (or whatever) | 15:33 |
| ball | hggdh: I'm used to servers with no graphics hardware | 15:33 |
| * ball <- old fart. | 15:33 | |
| ball | ...so splash screens aren't a priority for me. | 15:33 |
| * hggdh <- farter old | 15:33 | |
| ball | Should the splash screen revert to the previous display mode after doing its thing? | 15:35 |
| hggdh | then just disable it on the boot parms. I still like the increased real estate when using FBs (a terminal with 140x60) | 15:35 |
| hggdh | yes | 15:35 |
| ball | hggdh: I'm used to terminals that attach via a serial cable. No splash screen there then. | 15:36 |
| ball | Okay, well I'll break out google and look for a way to turn that off. | 15:36 |
| hggdh | oh. *real* old. ;-) | 15:36 |
| hggdh | ball, I gave you the way | 15:36 |
| ball | hggdh: you told me where to do it, but I still need to look for the commands, keypresses etc. | 15:37 |
| hggdh | ah | 15:37 |
| hggdh | sorry | 15:37 |
| ball | I'm new to Linux (sort of) | 15:37 |
| hggdh | be careful when editing /boot/grub/menu.lst | 15:38 |
| patanachai | Hi | 15:38 |
| patanachai | bug #339686 > wishlist | 15:39 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 339686 in ubuntu "Insufficient touchpad configuration tool" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/339686 | 15:39 |
| ball | Does the alternate install CD also use graphics? | 15:39 |
| charlie-tca | patanachai: It doesn't say what version of Ubuntu they are using, but gsynaptics should take care of that | 15:41 |
| hggdh | I think so, do not remember. | 15:41 |
| charlie-tca | patanachai: It just has to be installed from Synaptic Package Manager | 15:41 |
| ball | Doesn't make much sense to me, but that may just be because I'm so "old school". | 15:42 |
| patanachai | charlie-tca: I believe gsynaptics could, but how to treat this kind of bug? | 15:42 |
| charlie-tca | invalid it, with a comment to use install gsynaptics from Synaptic Package Manager. Be sure and thank them for helping | 15:43 |
| hggdh | ball, actually it makes installing the system much more easier | 15:43 |
| charlie-tca | Even that is an attempt to help improve things. | 15:43 |
| patanachai | charlie-tca: thanks for suggestion | 15:43 |
| charlie-tca | You are welcome | 15:43 |
| ball | hggdh: Hmm... I can see that it might for those locales with a non-latin character set. | 15:44 |
| ball | I seem to remember a language selection thing early during the install | 15:45 |
| ball | Perhaps that's what its for. | 15:45 |
| hggdh | yes, it is quite early on the isntall | 15:45 |
| ball | That's a valid use of graphics. | 15:46 |
| ball | ...and if the things going into a graphics mode anyway, then the splash screen makes some sense. | 15:48 |
| ball | ...so I just need to make it work with my hardware. | 15:52 |
| hggdh | :-) | 15:52 |
| hggdh | sometimes there are issues with a particular graphics card and the installer. Yours might be one of them | 15:52 |
| * ball nods | 15:54 | |
| ball | My guess is that the framebuffer (it's not using X, right?) is using a VESA mode that the video BIOS doesn't support. | 15:54 |
