| mcnicholls | hi | 15:05 |
| mcnicholls | if someone has submitted a bug that has been fixed upstream, how should i triage the bug? Do is set confirmed and then add a link to the upstream dist showing it as fixed? | 15:06 |
| charlie-tca | If it is not fixed in ubuntu yet, it should be fix-committed, and a comment that it is fixed upstream | 15:07 |
| charlie-tca | per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status | 15:09 |
| mcnicholls | ok will do that. it's fixed in debian, so will this situation either require a package sync from debian or a patch to the ubuntu package? | 15:11 |
| charlie-tca | If it is a package in use, it should sync automatically, I think. I am not sure, though | 15:15 |
| charlie-tca | Most of the time, as a triager, you don't have to request the sync, it just happens, to the best of my knowledge | 15:16 |
| mcnicholls | ok thanks. new to all this stuff so just trying to understand the processes. | 15:17 |
| BUGabundo | charlie-tca: aren't we past auto syncs? | 15:19 |
| mcnicholls | i know we are past DebianFreeze and FeatureFreeze, but i am guessing you can get a sync done at this point for bug fixes? | 15:25 |
| greg-g | BUGabundo: autosyncs, yes. But we can do manual sync | 15:26 |
| greg-g | mcnicholls: yeah, generally yes. | 15:26 |
| greg-g | I am less familiar with the sync process and would have to read the wiki pages myself. | 15:26 |
| greg-g | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SyncRequestProcess | 15:27 |
| greg-g | mcnicholls: that will help ^ | 15:27 |
| mcnicholls | greg-g: thanks for that. will have a read. | 16:20 |

| mrooney | seb128: do you know the dupe for bug 344424? I can't seem to find it | 18:28 |

| mrooney | partly because going to a bug listing on LP causes Xorg to consume 100% cpu for me | 18:28 |

| seb128 | you're welcome | 18:29 |
| chrisccoulson | mrooney - just seen your response in bug 344385 | 19:01 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 344385 in notify-osd "Brightness notification works only with Human Icons " [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/344385 | 19:01 |
| Arkain | I've got a problem and I don't know where to drop it, but Intrepid for amd64 has a memory leak | 19:01 |
| Arkain | ... and it's most-likely a kernel leak | 19:02 |
| chrisccoulson | would you mind copying the icons from the Human theme in to /usr/share/notify-osd/icons, just to see if it works then (with a non human theme)? | 19:02 |
| chrisccoulson | remember to back up the directory first | 19:02 |
| chrisccoulson | don't want you breaking your system ;) | 19:02 |
| Arkain | Depending on the size of the block being allocated, the system will consume all RAM and swap. It also refuses to shut down properly. | 19:03 |
| Arkain | I first noticed the problem while running VBox. The host system ram and swap would be all but completely consumed in under 3 hours. | 19:05 |
| Arkain | Shutting down Vbox would leave a zombie. Even killing the parent process didn't help as init is unable to kill this zombie either. | 19:05 |
| Arkain | Not running VB, it takes about a day to consume all of RAM and 1/2 of swap just using regular applications. | 19:06 |
| Arkain | But the end result is the same, the system cannot be shut down properly. Even X will not completely close down. You're left with wallpaper and a mouse that doesn't move, and a frozen keyboard. | 19:07 |
| Arkain | anyone got any idea how to work around this? It is really hindering my workflow (not to mention ruining a perfectly good uptime). | 19:09 |
| mrooney | chrisccoulson: okay, back now, I'll try that | 19:19 |
| adelie42 | Hello, had a question about bug status: If a bug has been confirmed by a person other than the reporter, should I change the status to confirmed? | 19:23 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | adelie42: which bug? | 19:25 |
| mrooney | Arkain: I would first look for an existing bug, then if you can't find one, file it | 19:26 |
| adelie42 | further, in attempting to hunt down new bugs, I keep coming by many reports marked as 'new' and have patches uploaded. I don't know how this would work otherwise, but of there are several patches for a package, would it be useful to branch, apply, test, and merge? | 19:26 |
| mrooney | Arkain: if you think it has a fair amount of info, you could link to it in #ubuntu-devel and see if anyone has an idea | 19:26 |
| adelie42 | Just in general, but I can find one in just a moment... | 19:26 |
| mrooney | adelie42: well if you can't confirm the bug it won't help to test the patch | 19:27 |
| mrooney | chrisccoulson: where ARE the human theme icons? | 19:27 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | adelie42: refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/PatchTesting | 19:27 |
| chrisccoulson | good question | 19:27 |
| adelie42 | mrooney: I am looking for new bugs I think I can fix, but I keep coming by bugs that are marked as 'new' but confirmed and contain patches in the comments. Is there something I can do more useful than ignore these threads | 19:28 |
| chrisccoulson | in /usr/share/icons/Human/scalable/status, is suspect | 19:28 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | adelie42: typically if there are confirmations from other users then the poster, we mark as confirmed | 19:28 |
| mrooney | adelie42: if someone else confirms it and it actually seems like a real confirmation (not a bug saying, my system freezes and someone else saying me too, that probably isn't the same issue :) then I would Confirm it, and you can ask if they'd be willing to test a patched version | 19:29 |
| adelie42 | 'we' being the collective...? | 19:29 |
| mrooney | adelie42: and if they say yes you could patch it and put up a PPA | 19:29 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | adelie42: we are the ubuntu, you will be assimilated, resistance if futile | 19:30 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | is* | 19:30 |
| adelie42 | ok, that 'patchtesting' page looks like it answers the questions I had. | 19:31 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | adelie42: great!, anything else we can help you with today? | 19:31 |
| adelie42 | mrooney: and no, I wasn't thinking comments like 'yeah, me too', more like "I saw the same thing, heres a screen shot, why hasn't this been fixed yet?" kind of comments followed by a patch. | 19:32 |
| mrooney | adelie42: yeah those are good to confirm, and get a confirmation that the patch works | 19:33 |
| adelie42 | bcurtiswx-mini: Well, how about you give yourself a pat on the back because I was just a lowly solo hobby programmer in love with Ubuntu a week ago, and now feeling mire fully assimilated, so THANK YOU! | 19:33 |
| adelie42 | more* | 19:34 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | bdmurray: would the eventual formation of a patch-testing team be possible? | 19:34 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | adelie42: are you interested in helping to test patches posted in launchpad? | 19:35 |
| adelie42 | Does anyone else feel that maybe the reason there isn't a lot of demand for video games on Linux is because it is too much fun hunting and patching bugs, or is it just me? | 19:35 |
| mrooney | adelie42: haha | 19:35 |
| adelie42 | bcurtiswx-mini: very muh so, my first merge was approved this morning from my work all weekend, and a second still pending approval | 19:35 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | adelie42: you would be a very beneficial addition to the team (once i can get one set up) | 19:36 |
| mrooney | chrisccoulson: hmm there is notification-display-brightness-* and notification-keyboard-brightness-* | 19:36 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | are there notifications for pidgin on the notify-osd yet? | 19:37 |
| adelie42 | I am still getting used to the code guidelines / format of things, so I have been mostly handling spelling and translation errors to have something useful to do while reading through code and getting more comfortable with the bzr way of doing things | 19:37 |
| bdmurray | bcurtiswx-mini: eventually but I rather see it start off being part of the bugsquad and talked about there | 19:37 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | bdmurray: sounds great to me ! | 19:38 |
| chrisccoulson | perhaps it is the keyboard-brightness ones that are missing mrooney? | 19:38 |
| mrooney | chrisccoulson: hmm nothing seems to be working | 19:39 |
| mrooney | I shouldn't have to restart anything right? | 19:39 |
| chrisccoulson | i'm not sure then. i don't know the notify-osd code well enough. you could try restarting perhaps | 19:40 |
| chrisccoulson | the notifications definately work with human theme don't they? | 19:40 |
| adelie42 | bcurtiswx-mini: but I look forward to joining a team in the near future as I become more comfortable with things. Thanks for the patchtesting link. I think I got my work cut out for me today. Thanks again. | 19:40 |
| mrooney | chrisccoulson: let me right click and "change desktop background" to tell you :) | 19:40 |
| mrooney | what a poorly named thing | 19:40 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | adelie42: glad i was of some help | 19:40 |
| mrooney | chrisccoulson: yeah switching icons to Human works instantly | 19:41 |
| bcurtiswx-mini | i see on the wiki that pidgin does link with the notify-osd, but its not working on my machine... is there a special package i have to dl? | 19:41 |
| chrisccoulson | i'm not so sure then. i can maybe take another look later, but i have to disappear for dinner shortly | 19:41 |
| mrooney | chrisccoulson: okay, I'll add a comment with what I've done | 19:46 |
