alex-weej | wow, the new update-manager behaviour is fucking annoying | 00:01 |
---|---|---|
alex-weej | i close it every 20 minutes it seems | 00:01 |
alex-weej | i can't update because the mirrors are hosed | 00:01 |
alex-weej | and they're not even critical updates | 00:01 |
Ampelbein | alex-weej: update-manager just closes here for no reason after i click start upgrade, but only after downloading the required packages, as a quick test with aptitude shows... | 00:07 |
Ampelbein | and i ddos'd my server by not specifying an uploade-rate limit in rtorrent. ;-) | 00:09 |

pitti | Good morning | 07:06 |
huats | morning everyone | 08:47 |
mvo | good morning huats | 08:48 |
seb128 | hey huats mvo | 08:49 |
huats | morning seb128 and mvo | 08:49 |
mvo | hey seb128 | 08:51 |
seb128 | mvo: how are things looking on the upgrade bug reports front today? | 08:52 |
mvo | seb128: medium, ~10 new or so | 08:53 |
mvo | need to check how bad they are though | 08:54 |
seb128 | lool: where should unr bugs be assigned? | 09:51 |
lool | seb128: Depends; we have various packages: netbook-launcher, maximus... | 09:59 |
lool | seb128: bug #? | 09:59 |
seb128 | lool: bug #365795 for example | 10:00 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 365795 in ubuntu "UNR LiveUSB fails integrity check with "errors found in 1 files!"" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/365795 | 10:00 |
lool | seb128: (BTW StevenK wants to handle UNR these days) | 10:00 |
lool | seb128: That's probably an ubuntu-cdimage bug, looking | 10:00 |
seb128 | lool: I'm just looking to the recent bugs list and reassigning things where I can | 10:00 |
lool | seb128: Yup, thanks for that; I'm trying to give you the best contact for the future | 10:00 |
seb128 | thanks | 10:01 |
seb128 | bug #365846 too | 10:01 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 365846 in ubuntu "UNR installation problem" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/365846 | 10:01 |
seb128 | that one is not really useful, would require debugging from somebody working on UNR | 10:01 |
seb128 | what is the best way to bring attention of the UNR team on a bug? | 10:01 |
seb128 | or let the team know "that's on UNR you should have a look" | 10:02 |
lool | seb128: That's a good question | 10:02 |
seb128 | you don't have a component which can be used as triaging point for those? | 10:02 |
lool | seb128: In theory, we set the ubuntu-unr tag on these bugs | 10:02 |
lool | when reported with apport | 10:02 |
seb128 | or a team to subscribe | 10:02 |
seb128 | and you go through tagged bugs? | 10:03 |
lool | Many people will also report bug against the upstream project, netbook-remix, but that's incorrect most of the time | 10:03 |
lool | seb128: no we don't :-( | 10:03 |
lool | seb128: I think we lack a good workflow for bugs, it has been the subject of discussions between UNR upstream and mobile team people | 10:03 |
seb128 | is there an ubuntu-unr team we can subscribe? | 10:03 |
seb128 | that would email notify the team members ;-) | 10:04 |
lool | There's an upstream netbook-remix team | 10:04 |
seb128 | ok, seems there is no easy way to notify concerned people there | 10:04 |
lool | seb128: I'm trying to think of a comparable project; in practice we differ only by a small number of packages | 10:05 |
seb128 | I will let the bug where they are for now and assume that people interested in UNR will go through recent bugs having UNR in the title at some point then | 10:05 |
lool | seb128: I think the team idea is the best one so far | 10:05 |
lool | StevenK: http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2009/04/24/%23ubuntu-desktop.txt | 10:06 |
seb128 | hey StevenK | 10:06 |
lool | StevenK: Some minutes are still missing there; basically seb128 has a pile of UNR bugs and he's looking for a consistent way to bring our attention to them | 10:06 |
seb128 | lool: using the netbook-remix upstream one? | 10:06 |
lool | StevenK: One suggestion seb128 made was to use an ubuntu-unr team which he would subscribe | 10:06 |
lool | seb128: I think a new one makes more sense | 10:07 |
seb128 | you could have a launchpad mailinglist for the team which would receive the bug emails | 10:07 |
seb128 | should be easy enough to subscribe or look to the list for people triaging then | 10:07 |
StevenK | Mmmm | 10:07 |
lool | StevenK: What do you think? I think a new Ubuntu team makes sense; some bugs are related to cdimage stuff, others to the launcher, others to usability issues... | 10:07 |
lool | We could also have an Ubuntu Netbook Remix *in Ubuntu* project | 10:08 |
StevenK | Sounds great to me | 10:08 |
lool | I personally think a team is a good first step; but I don't mind a project | 10:08 |
lool | We also have the ubuntu-unr tag | 10:08 |
seb128 | ubuntu-unr doesn't email notify you though | 10:09 |
lool | The problem I have with a project is that it's not clear when you close the bug, or it's going to be manual | 10:09 |
seb128 | you have to go pool on the list | 10:09 |
lool | seb128: Ack | 10:09 |
lool | I think team + tag are good | 10:09 |
seb128 | the project issue is that the ubuntu task still stay unassigned | 10:09 |
lool | new project > sounds like bad workflow, and extra work | 10:09 |
seb128 | me too | 10:09 |
lool | StevenK: Could you set that up? | 10:09 |
seb128 | yeah, just create an ubuntu-unr launchpad team with a list to get bug emails | 10:10 |
StevenK | lool, seb128: Done, and requested mailing list | 10:13 |
StevenK | seb128: Do you want to be a member too, or do you get enough bug mail? :-) | 10:13 |
seb128 | StevenK: I've enough emails thanks ;-) | 10:14 |
seb128 | StevenK: if you set a mailinglist for the team members will not get emails though | 10:14 |
seb128 | StevenK: but I don't work on UNR, I just triage recent ubuntu bugs right now so I've no reason to join the team there | 10:14 |
StevenK | seb128: Indeed | 10:14 |
lool | StevenK: Do we want a ML or just use membership as a mean to get emails? | 10:15 |
StevenK | lool: I've requested a mailing list | 10:15 |
lool | StevenK: is there a benefit to a ML? | 10:16 |
lool | (just curious) | 10:16 |
StevenK | lool: Then we can have people in the team who don't get bugmail | 10:16 |
lool | StevenK: Just sub-ed the team to its first bug ;) | 10:16 |
* StevenK has cancelled the mailing list request | 10:17 | |
lool | I was fine either way really | 10:17 |
StevenK | Well, the description says the team should get bug mail, so ... | 10:18 |

lool | Ok; I remember reading these bits in gtk a while ago, and they were completely inconsistent, depending even on the module type | 11:29 |
asac | yep | 11:30 |
mpt | andreasn, glad you like it | 11:30 |
asac | actually i promissed fta to fix that for his chromium ia32 builds | 11:30 |

seb128 | you seem to mix gtk fileselector and nautilus | 18:13 |
seb128 | ie describe 2 bugs | 18:13 |
seb128 | is your bug "files added to the places list display errors when selected"? | 18:14 |
mpt | yes | 18:14 |
seb128 | that being the case in gtk and nautilus? | 18:14 |
mpt | No, only Nautilus | 18:14 |
mpt | The filepicker is in the steps to reproduce for two reasons | 18:14 |
mpt | 1. because Nautilus doesn't let you add a file to the Places pane, only the filepicker does | 18:15 |
seb128 | mpt: ok, please try to have clear steps and 1 bug by ticket please | 18:15 |
seb128 | ie we are not interested by a complex way to get the issue but the easier way you can get | 18:15 |
mpt | 2. to show that it's possible for Nautilus to handle the file being there, because the filepicker handles it. | 18:15 |
mpt | seb128, it is only one bug. | 18:16 |
seb128 | hum, no? | 18:16 |
seb128 | you have 5. and 6. listing issues | 18:16 |

seb128 | ok | 18:17 |
seb128 | so steps are | 18:17 |

mpt | seb128, I try to avoid making bug summaries assume the solution, I leave the suggested solution to the end of the report | 18:17 |
seb128 | - try to open this bookmark in nautilus | 18:17 |
seb128 | well those don't assume the solution | 18:18 |
mpt | seb128, I don't see how you can add a bookmark to a file from within Nautilus | 18:18 |
mpt | selecting a file and choosing "Add Bookmark" adds the enclosing folder instead! | 18:18 |
seb128 | right | 18:19 |
seb128 | so the steps are | 18:19 |
seb128 | - use a gtkfileselect to add a bookmark to a file | 18:19 |

seb128 | mpt: ^ dup from that | 18:20 |
seb128 | bug #298425 in launcupad | 18:20 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 298425 in nautilus "gtk fileselector allow file bookmarks but nautilus doesn't use those correctly" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/298425 | 18:20 |
seb128 | launchpad | 18:20 |
mpt | Ah, I searched Bugzilla but didn't think to look in something called "Bookmarks" | 18:21 |
mpt | Since it's called "Places" in both the filepicker and in Nautilus | 18:21 |
mpt | thanks seb128 | 18:22 |
seb128 | you're welcome | 18:22 |
seb128 | mpt: thanks for the user testing, some suggestion though | 18:22 |
seb128 | - the shorter the bug description is the better | 18:22 |
seb128 | we read log of bugs and we want to know what is the issue | 18:22 |
seb128 | the user story leading to it is not really interesting | 18:23 |
seb128 | - you can open upstream bugs only upstream ;-) but I guess you want to track those in launchpad too for those user testing? | 18:23 |
mvo | pitti: is there a way to make the kernel output the name of the segfaulted app when it prints the "Segmentation fault" message? I want to include that in the apt terminal.log if possible | 18:24 |
mpt | seb128, bah, that's like 4 lines out of 20 | 18:24 |
mpt | :-P | 18:24 |
mvo | pitti: alternatively I'm thinking about just adding the dmesg output to a apt failure log if a exit status is 139 | 18:24 |
pitti | mvo: doesn't it already? | 18:25 |
pitti | pr 22 10:52:23 tick kernel: [13255.188232] ekiga[16208]: segfault at 10 ip 00007f95142c79dc sp 00007f9506d4bd00 error 6 in libc-2.9.so[7f951424d000+168000] | 18:25 |
mvo | pitti: right, in dmesg | 18:25 |
mpt | seb128, yes, I plan to tag them all the same way :-) | 18:25 |
mvo | pitti: I would like to have it in the terminal window too :) | 18:25 |
seb128 | mpt: it took me 2 goods minutes to understand your bug, I first trying to figure why it was about places and started by background and pattern dialog use | 18:25 |
seb128 | trying -> tried | 18:26 |
pitti | mvo: oh, *that* message | 18:26 |
mpt | ok | 18:26 |
mvo | pitti: including the dmesg output is my fallback plan | 18:26 |
pitti | mvo: hm, any chance you could get it from /var/log/apport.log? | 18:26 |
mvo | pitti: that would mean to start apport, right? | 18:26 |
pitti | (I thought you did that anyway) | 18:26 |
mvo | pitti: currently for stable->stable upgrades its not running | 18:26 |
pitti | mvo: however, that's only reliable if you parse every line, I gues | 18:26 |
seb128 | mpt: bug #298425 has a description which seems clearer to me for example | 18:26 |

pitti | mvo: OIC | 18:26 |
seb128 | mpt: but maybe that's only me, or an user view against a bug triager one | 18:27 |
pitti | mvo: I don't currently know a way to do that, I'm afraid | 18:27 |
mpt | That one doesn't even use complete sentences | 18:27 |
pitti | mvo: well, we could always change glibc to do that, of course :) | 18:27 |
pitti | but not without such a change | 18:27 |
* mpt is just whining now, ignore me | 18:27 | |
mvo | pitti: no problem, then I just use the dmesg idea then | 18:27 |
seb128 | mpt: right, I might be complaining a bit, just try to not be too specific if you can, ie if any fileselector do write that rather than describing a specific way to open one in nautilus ;-) | 18:29 |
mpt | ok | 18:29 |
seb128 | thanks | 18:29 |
seb128 | otherwise thanks for the user testing and the detailed descriptions you do in bugs | 18:29 |
seb128 | and thanks for opening those upstream too ;-) | 18:29 |
alex-weej | can we go back to the normal way of resizing windows in compiz now that it's not as slow as it used to be? | 18:51 |
alex-weej | that blue outline isn't even in any theme | 18:51 |
mvo | seb128: I added dmesg output to apport package logs now, that should make it possible to see what segfaulted in maintainer scripts | 18:52 |
seb128 | mvo: excellent | 18:54 |
alex-weej | i've changed the patch in the bzr package for compiz | 18:54 |
alex-weej | how do i properly get this change sponsored etc.? | 18:55 |
alex-weej | do i push the branch to lp myself? | 18:55 |
seb128 | alex-weej: if there is a bug subscribe ubuntu-main-sponsors | 18:56 |
seb128 | alex-weej: having either a debdiff on the bug or your bzr with the change | 18:56 |
seb128 | there is a lp feature to match a bug and a bzr | 18:56 |
seb128 | alex-weej: are you sure that the changes are faster now? or do you just assume that because it's fast on your box? | 18:57 |
alex-weej | i've not seen a recent machine where it's been slow enough to warrant going back to Windows 95 resizing | 18:58 |
alex-weej | but i've not conducted a thorough test | 18:58 |
alex-weej | i'll put the patch on and it can be closed "when it's ready" if people think not now | 18:59 |
seb128 | we tried before hardy ie one year ago | 19:01 |
seb128 | and on some box you could see it jumping when moving the cursor | 19:02 |
seb128 | I doubt that has changed, the issue is just slow video cards | 19:02 |
alex-weej | seb128: jumping? | 19:02 |
pitti | good night everyone | 19:03 |
seb128 | not being smooth | 19:03 |
seb128 | pitti: 'night | 19:03 |
seb128 | alex-weej: ie the graphic changes don't follow the mouse and catch up by jumping when they can | 19:03 |
alex-weej | it's certainly not "smooth" now | 19:03 |
alex-weej | but... a giant blue rectangle? | 19:03 |
seb128 | the blue rectangle is not smooth for you?! | 19:03 |
seb128 | well, it gives an indicate of the change | 19:04 |
alex-weej | no it is, i just don't see the point of it. if i'm resizing a window to make e.g. a web page FIT, i have no idea when i can stop making it wider if i see a blue rectangle | 19:04 |
seb128 | nobody complained about that until now | 19:04 |
alex-weej | if it's actually resizing live, i can see when to stop | 19:04 |
seb128 | "live" is the issue | 19:04 |
alex-weej | it's not an issue. it's slow, but it's a hell of a lot more usable and less ugly than a blue rectangle | 19:04 |
seb128 | if you get the view refreshing every second it's highly annoying | 19:04 |
alex-weej | it's not that slow | 19:05 |
seb128 | depends of the video card as said | 19:05 |
seb128 | on my 5 years old laptop it is | 19:05 |
alex-weej | if your graphics hardware is that slow at 2D yet still good enough to run compiz | 19:05 |
alex-weej | you got problems | 19:05 |
seb128 | it runs compiz just fine | 19:05 |
alex-weej | every /second/? | 19:05 |
alex-weej | are you exaggerating? | 19:05 |
seb128 | enough to give a jumping effect | 19:06 |
seb128 | I don't think the eyes are good at make the difference between 600ms and 800ms | 19:06 |
seb128 | it's just slow enough to not be usable | 19:06 |
alex-weej | seb128: 5 years old is out of the scope of ubuntu right? | 19:06 |
seb128 | no | 19:06 |
seb128 | ubuntu is working just fine on this box | 19:07 |
seb128 | it's a 1.5GHz box | 19:07 |
alex-weej | why must you penalise people with newer machines with worse usability? | 19:07 |
seb128 | ubuntu runs on a 500mhz with 512 meg of rams | 19:07 |
seb128 | because we have no good way to make speed estimation? | 19:07 |
seb128 | it's not only old machine | 19:07 |
seb128 | lot of people are describing intel 2.6 drivers being too slow to be used with compiz in jaunty | 19:08 |
seb128 | on recent hardware | 19:08 |
seb128 | ie alt-tab and desktop switching are fine | 19:08 |
seb128 | but extra effects are slooooow | 19:08 |
alex-weej | the resizing issue is solely to do with 2D performance | 19:09 |
seb128 | we can try changing the setting value in karmic and see who complains | 19:09 |
alex-weej | and CPU i guess (layout etc.) | 19:09 |
seb128 | expose too | 19:09 |
seb128 | and things people describe as slow in jaunty on intel | 19:09 |
seb128 | ideally we would have a video speed estimation by some way | 19:10 |
seb128 | and use that to know what to enable | 19:10 |
alex-weej | i noticed expose was quite sluggish like 10fps on a fairly recent (~2 years) intel gma | 19:10 |
seb128 | as said we can try enabling the dynamic content refresh again in karmic | 19:10 |
seb128 | and see how it goes | 19:11 |
seb128 | anyway I've to run for now, diner time, bbl | 19:11 |
alex-weej | cya | 19:11 |
pedro_ | is anybody aware of bug 361560 ? seems it's affecting a good quantity of users | 19:11 |

james_w | pedro_: chriscoulson was looking at it the other day | 19:12 |
pedro_ | james_w: ah good to know i was about to ask him or to didrocks since they're touching the package now | 19:13 |
james_w | pedro_: yeah, not sure where he got to, but he had a theory of the cause, and is in communication with upstream | 19:14 |
pedro_ | james_w: awesome, looks worth it for an SRU, let's approve the nomination on the meantime, that's james_w | 19:15 |
pedro_ | s/that's/thanks ;-) | 19:19 |
pedro_ | dammit keyboard | 19:19 |
pmatulis | how does one report a boot degradation after upgrading to jaunty? apply toward what package in Launchpad? | 19:37 |
james_w | pmatulis: you mean a boot speed degradation? | 19:59 |
pmatulis | james_w: yeah, btw, i believe i just apply it towards 'ubuntu' and add a tag somewhere called 'boot-performance' | 20:00 |
james_w | that could work | 20:00 |
james_w | have you generated a bootchart? | 20:00 |
pmatulis | no, but the delay is right after grub: "boot from hd(0,0) .. UUID" | 20:01 |
pmatulis | it sits there for about 12 seconds | 20:01 |
james_w | ah | 20:03 |
james_w | that's more specific | 20:03 |
james_w | I'm not sure what component it would be there, but it's probably while searching for the root filesystem | 20:04 |
james_w | pmatulis: you don't happen to have a Intel D945 motherboard do you? | 20:05 |
james_w | also, a dmesg from the booted system would be good to attach | 20:06 |
pmatulis | james_w: it has the intel GM965 chipset, yes, of course dmesg | 20:11 |
james_w | I ask because of bug 290153 from the release notes | 20:11 |
