[06:38] micahg, Sometimes that's a valid model. [06:38] persia: can you clarify pleasE? [06:38] For instance, when a bug is mostly irreproducible, but someone is claiming it because they can reproduce (e.g. on specialised hardware), and are collecting additional details. [06:38] so, that's assigned, but new? [06:38] not incomplete === savvas is now known as medigeek [06:39] or in progress? [06:39] Or when someone finds something, and is working on it, but nobody else has yet confirmed the issue (by the don't-confirm-your-own-bugs rule) === medigeek is now known as savvas [06:39] Well, arguably, it ought be "incomplete" or "in-progress". I think you're right. [06:39] ok, but still, shouldn't that be in progress so people know [06:39] here's my bug problem [06:39] bug 294652 [06:39] Launchpad bug 294652 in firefox-3.0 "Default 8.10 homepage searches wrong google" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/294652 [06:40] the assignee was asked to reclassify the bug [06:40] Oh, I've encountered that bug. [06:40] that shouldn't be in progress? [06:41] No. That's a somewhat special case. [06:41] ok [06:41] The bug is a bug in http://start.ubuntu.com/8.10 rather than in firefox. [06:41] I've only been doing this a week, so I'm still earning [06:41] ah [06:41] it's a problem witht he site [06:41] It's not clear which project hosts that web page, but the person setting the assignment has some information that indicates the assignee might know where it belongs. [06:42] (the assignee probably said "assign that to me" in an IRC chat) [06:42] I've tried to adopt ff as my bug project to triage [06:42] So, the assignee will probably move it, and then it will follow other processes. [06:42] since it's so out of control [06:42] well [06:42] bad wording [06:42] not out of control [06:42] bugs rising beyond ability to triage [06:42] maybe that's better [06:43] Right. It's a special case. It oughtn't be in that state for long, because it should move away from being against "Firefox" and be against whatever actually handles that page. [06:43] I try to go after everything classified as new [06:43] Well, out of control of those working on firefox (or Ubuntu), at least. [06:43] a little at a time [06:43] heh [06:43] I think I've done about 50 in the past week [06:43] It's been in this state for several months: you might want to contact the assignee and ask if the bug will be updated. [06:44] Cool! [06:44] hggdh: can you be my bug mentor? [06:44] micahg: yes, not probs [06:44] ok [06:44] I was wondering [06:44] s/not/no/ [06:44] We're doing bug mentors now? I always preferred the "ask the channel" model. [06:44] what about combining all the compiz/FF problems into one bug [06:44] there seem to be a lot of them [06:45] persia, I guess both are good [06:45] Same scenario over and over, user starts FF and it's maximized [06:45] user needs to hit F11 twice to get the titlebat back [06:45] *titlebar [06:46] micahg: putting all compiz/ff into one master sounds nice, but... we have to be sure they are all the same issue [06:48] anyway. it's almost 0100 now here.

[06:57] yes: piece of paper, and a pencil ;-) [06:58] I'll use vim instead :0 [06:59] I also have to go to bed soon [07:00] I used to use a desktop stickies program, and just copy&paste URLs there. This didn't end up scaling well (I have too many bugs), but it was very helpful for keeping track of things when reviewing a couple hundred bugs quickly. [07:01] tried using something like that, but ended up using real stickies instead... [07:03] ah, would you guys find a watch bug feature useful? [07:03] not subscribe so you get e-mails [07:03] but, just a place to collect a list of ones to watch [07:11] actually, no. Subscription meets that need for me.

BUGabundo said the GUI dies silently without error msg in that case, so its a gui bug [12:48] ogra: there is already bugs about the GUI not making messages clear [12:49] ogra: the fact that it thinks that's the same password is a passwd bug [12:50] * ogra doest nee that as a bug ... it essentially *is* the same passwd [12:50] *see [12:51] ubuntu and ubuntujaunty are the same word?

[12:53] seb128: "ubuntu and ubuntujaunty are the same word?" [12:53] BUGabundo: that was a question for ogra, if he things those are identic [12:53] the proper error would be "Bad: new password to similar to the old one" [12:53] why should that be an error?

[20:28] Launchpad bug 193709 in gnome-power-manager "While working screen-monitor goes blank & doesn't respond to keyboard or/and mouse" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/193709 [20:29] First problem: the sound stutters irregularly (at times, every 10 seconds - at others, it'll go for a song or two before stuttering), no apparent association with CPU activity [20:30] epastor: what version of ubuntu are you using? [20:30] I can't tell if it's a Rhythmbox, audio, or USB hard disk problem, since the trouble seems to be related to the drive spinning down. [20:30] Sorry - Jaunty. [20:31] have you tried moving the audio file to the internal drive to rule out USB hard disk problem? [20:32] pace_t_zulu: *looks sheepish* Haven't tried that yet. Problem is that it seems to take some time before happening, as mentioned... no apparent pattern. [20:33] epastor: i would try moving several files to the internal drive and playing them on repeat... if you continue experiencing the problem you can rule out the USB hard disk [20:33] pace_t_zulu: Will do. The reason I suspect the disk or Rhythmbox is that I can hear (and see, via its activity light) it spinning up just /after/ the stuttering hits [20:34] epastor: your suspicion sounds reasonable... the step i suggested would prove/disprove it [20:34] pace_t_zulu: I'll check. [20:34] epastor: let us know [20:42] pace_t_zulu: Huh... still stuttering [20:43] epastor: now you know it isn't a USB hard drive issue [20:43] epastor: what format are these files? [20:43] epastor: mp3? m4a? [20:44] pace_t_zulu: FLAC, actually [20:44] epastor: are you familiar with lauchpad? [20:44] !launchpad [20:44] Launchpad is a collection of development services for Open Source projects. It's Ubuntu's bug tracker, and much more; see https://launchpad.net/ [20:45] pace_t_zulu: reasonably, yes [20:47] epastor: did you experience this problem w/ intrepid? [20:47] pace_t_zulu: Certainly not as severely, if at all [20:47] pace_t_zulu: Just did a quick test - I see stuttering in Totem as well. [20:47] epastor: it could be the flac codex [20:47] codec [20:48] pace_t_zulu: Seems possible, now. Should I test with some MP3s as well to isolate? [20:49] epastor: i reckon that would be a good idea [20:51] pace_t_zulu: Hm. Duplicated with MP3s in Rhythmbox. [20:52] pace_t_zulu: On the internal drive [20:52] pace_t_zulu: And with Totem. [20:52] epastor so you know it is not codec specific nor is it application specific nor is it device (internal hdd or usb hdd) specific... right? [20:52] pace_t_zulu: That's what I'd gather. [20:54] pace_t_zulu: Doesn't seem to reliably correlate with CPU activity, either - I had the System Monitor open, and generally saw activity spike if I had a long stutter, not for short ones. [20:54] epastor: does this happen with no other applications open and no user intervention (ie mouse clicks) [20:54] pace_t_zulu: Haven't tried it with everything else closed... I'll test it. [20:55] pace_t_zulu: Think it's alright to keep XChat up, or kill that too? [20:55] kill it for now... see you in a few [20:56] pace_t_zulu: See you on the other side. [20:59] pace_t_zulu: Duplicated with every other app shut [20:59] pace_t_zulu: in both Rhythmbox and Totem [21:00] pace_t_zulu: Seems odd to me... I should mention, I've also been having problems with tracker, to the point where I disabled indexing [21:01] epastor: do you know which audio controller you have? [21:04] pace_t_zulu: Xonar DX - it's the CMI8788, C-Media Oxygen HD [21:06] epastor: seems to me as if this might be a pulseaudio bug [21:06] anyone in here disagree??? [21:09] sounds possible, yes [21:10] time to search of similar bugs [21:10] s/of/for/ [21:11] (and to folow the sound debugging procedure) [21:16] hggdh: i have been searching for similar bugs [21:17] hggdh: could you provide a link for the sound debugging procedure? [21:20] hold on [21:21] pace_t_zulu, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems [21:24] epastor: did you get that link? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems [21:26] also, dt Chen has published a test pulseaudio, available on his PPA (https://edge.launchpad.net/~crimsun/+archive/ppa) [21:26] epastor: you still here? [21:26] on the phone... sorry [21:27] pace_t_zulu: back. Yes, I got the link [21:28] epastor: good luck with it... let us know what you come up with [21:28] pace_t_zulu: Following the Guide seems to be inapplicable, actually... it seems more directed to "No sound" problems. [21:28] epastor, see also my link to the PPA [21:28] hggdh: Will do [21:29] epastor, anyway, the data that needs to be collect is specified there [21:29] (in the DebuggingSound page, I mean) [21:29] hggdh: Got it [21:36] hggdh: Hm. Tried the test pulseaudio from the PPA - no improvement, but thanks for the link [21:39] I'm looking at a bug where someone reported two separate problems, both of which I belive are dups. Since they are both in a single bug though, not sure which to dup it to [21:40] is there a recommended way of dealing with that? Mark it invalid and reference the two bugs that I believe they are dups of? [21:41] epastor, after installing the PPA pulseaudio, did you logout? [21:41] hggdh: Yes [21:42] sigh. OK, please open a new bug with the data & symptoms [21:42] hggdh: Will do. [21:42] plars, the required is one issue per bug, one bug per issue. [21:43] hggdh: By the way - any simple way to revert to the Jaunty pulseaudio? [21:44] hggdh: I know, and I've explained that already in the bug [21:44] epastor, easiest is under synaptic: select the pulseaudio package, then Ctrl-E, and select the Jaunty version [21:45] hggdh: my question was how to deal with it though... my assumption would be to mark it invalid, but still reference the other two bugs that I believe it's a dup of just in case someone hits it on a search, just trying to verify that there is not some other preferred way to deal with it [21:45] plars, OK, thanks. Now, if both issues are indeed dups, provide the links for the original bugs, and select one of them to mark as dup (only one can be selected) [21:45] ok [21:46] epastor, please also remember to disable the PPA ;-) [21:46] hggdh: Did, thanks [21:49] hggdh: Do I report against pulseaudio, or under the procedure for unknown audio bug? [21:49] I would go unknown audio bug; we don't really know it is PA [21:50] hggdh, pace_t_zulu: Okay, thanks for the help! [21:53] hggdh: i didn't even get to say "you're welcome" [21:53] oh well [21:54] he [21:54] heh [22:13] ogra: so what was the final decision on that passwd bug , you where disscusing with seb128? [22:13] can some take a look and tell me if this is good ? [22:13] https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pidgin/+bug/371898 [22:13] Launchpad bug 371898 in pidgin "adding a .png avatar makes pidgin crash" [Undecided,New] [22:15] I want to upstream it, but you guys know how pidgin devs are, aggressive [22:17] BUGabundo: setting any png avatar will trigger it? [22:18] at least all 3 I have there [22:18] let me try jpg [22:19] kklimonda: bah... old avatar (.jpg) also crashes it! :(( [22:19] that means NO AVATAR for me! [22:19] * BUGabundo updating bug and upstreaming [22:19] hmm.. I've tried setting some (pretty gayish so I need a beer now) avatar and it worked.. [22:19] kklimonda: is the backtrace good? [22:20] or do I need extra dbg libs? [22:20] hmm - you could retrace it with all dbgsym installed but imo it's enough [22:21] I think that pidgin devs won't call for your blood.. [22:21] that's what I'm using [22:21] but i can't reproduce it.. [22:21] but I see /usr/lib/libgobject-2.0.so.0 without info [22:21] humm could be a plugin [22:21] let me start from a new profile [22:22] it may be a protocol specific issue [22:22] I use only jabber [22:22] can you upload this avatar somewhere? [22:22] the one that breaks it [22:23] ohhh its account related [22:23] account? [22:23] irc doesn't break it [22:23] you mean profile? [22:23] or protocol? [22:23] kklimonda: mean protocol [22:23] (or plugin) [22:23] new profile with IRC works [22:23] irc doesn't really have avatars [22:23] not that IRC has avatares [22:23] lol [22:23] yeah - but it crashed? [22:23] nope [22:23] adding extra protocls [22:24] grr xmpp and msn work [22:24] starting to think it's a plugin [22:24] and what doesn't [22:24] ? [22:25] ok, starting a copy of my profile and disabling all plugins and renalbing until get a crash [22:25] if it's a plugin, I won't go to pidgin [22:26] its probably a heisenbug ;-) [22:26] they will skin me alive, and order to disable them all [22:26] you start looking for the bug and it vanishes, heh [22:26] calc: naaa I can do it every time [22:26] but only with the same .purple dir ;-) [22:27] calc: yep [22:28] made a copy, and further testing [22:30] sigh, kernel panic [22:30] huu [22:31] The file '..../eyetumb64.png' is too large for TwitterIM. Please try a smaller image. [22:31] found the guilty part!!! [22:31] WOOT [22:31] its the same old [22:31] damn pluing [22:32] upstreaming to the proper place [22:32] looks like vmware module was to blame [22:32] as i suspected.. [22:32] pidgin plugins... I got mesself one bug with the Evolution one... [22:33] how can a 10k png be too big? [22:33] stupid plugin [22:34] BUGabundo: still it shouldn't crash in this "corner" case ;) [22:34] bah that was not it!! :( [22:35] kklimonda: µbog-purple is a very *bad* plugin [22:35] lots of crashs! [22:35] but even with it disabled it crash [22:35] but now it's a new one [22:35] µbog-purple ? [22:36] savvas: http://code.google.com/p/microblog-purple/ [22:36] its a plugin to access identica/laconica and twitter [22:37] but it makes pidgin crash a lot. stuff like going from 3G to 2G, for example, or wifi signal lost [22:37] lol? [22:38] kklimonda: not lol.... === thekorn__ is now known as thekorn [22:42] so microblog actually turns the chat window into a monologue? :P [22:42] yep [22:42] quite nice [22:42] since #identichat is not yet ready for primetime [22:43] but MUC is away better then µblogpurple [22:43] sweet! [22:44] savvas: for a while I had to run it on a single fork [22:44] $ pidgin -m -n and then start only the µblogs account [22:44] it was *that* unstable [22:46] ah ah. another plugin: Album [22:46] hey BUGabundo [22:46] BUGabundo: i just submitted my first patch... pretty excited... [22:46] pace_t_zulu: hey [22:48] oh this can't be right [22:48] can't be statusboxs :(((( [22:49] new profile with only it disables [22:49] duh works [22:49] bug confirmed for me [22:49] can anyone else using pigdin test this? [22:50] even if not in karmic [22:50] BUGabundo: does it require installing some weird plugins? ;} [22:50] kklimonda: plain archive pidgin plugins [22:51] just $ pidgin -n -m -c /tmp/ [22:51] ctrl + you [22:51] ctrl + u [22:51] enable my status box [22:51] change avatar [22:52] oh wait. that would create a new account... you will get there [22:53] I don't have "my status box" plugin [22:53] do you have pidgin-plugin-pack installed? [22:54] probably not :) [22:54] * BUGabundo gets ready to face #pidgin devs [22:56] kklimonda: can you do it on your VM? [22:56] I can't reproduce it [22:56] what protocol are you testing it with? [22:56] ohh it was going so well [22:56] humm how many does libpurple handle? [22:56] I think I have one of 80% of them [22:57] does it crash with jabber/xmpp? [22:57] xmpp, irc, msn, yahoo, aol, etc [22:57] let me try again === thekorn__ is now known as thekorn [22:59] any bitesize patches before I go to bed? :P [22:59] er.. *bugs [22:59] kklimonda: I can reproduce it [22:59] new clean profile, add XMPP, enable MSB, change avatar, CRASH [23:00] weird [23:00] hmm.. [23:00] maybe something changed in karmic? [23:00] for example new libc? [23:00] ahhhh #pidgin say we have a 4 months old and buggy pidgin-plugin-pack [23:01] try to rebuild it using gcc etc. from karmic [23:01] well, it's obvious [23:01] let me see if it's a manual sync or autosync from debian [23:02] if manual, will get a manual sync bug request [23:02] auto [23:03] Maintainer: Ubuntu MOTU Developers [23:03] Original-Maintainer: Benjamin Seidenberg [23:03] looks auto [23:03] let me get debian deb lol [23:03] * BUGabundo wonders how many rules and support will that break [23:04] just do it the right way [23:04] lol, it looks like debian has the same version? [23:04] grab-merge didn't return anything [23:05] ta, it's the same [23:05] ya* [23:05] humm [23:05] so now what kklimonda? [23:06] hmm [23:07] * BUGabundo gets bold and tants #pidgin devs [23:08] i can build 2.3.0 for you [23:08] thanks [23:08] that would help debug it [23:11] nothing helpful at http://plugins.guifications.org/trac/wiki/mystatusbox [23:14] the mantainer on debian is astronut [23:14] quering hum now [23:15] BUGabundo: please tell me that you have amd64 ;) [23:15] C2D running KK 64bits [23:16] BUGabundo: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/163224/pidgin-plugin-pack_2.3.0-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb [23:17] I've just built it in karmic pbuilder so it's not tested [23:17] but it contains some files ;) [23:17] and there weren't any errors ;) [23:18] $ apt-cache policy pidgin-plugin-pack Installed: 2.3.0-1ubuntu1 [23:18] now to start pidgin again [23:18] CRASH [23:19] I don't have dbgsym for it [23:19] neither do I know how to create it [23:19] oh wait [23:19] hmm [23:20] maybe you need newer pidgin ;) [23:20] 2.5.5 is lastest [23:21] heh [23:23] ohhh those pidgin devs get on my nervs [23:23] why can't they be nicer ? [23:23] :D [23:24] kklimonda: now they complain 2.3 is not new enough [23:25] "(11:24:52 PM) darkrain42: You already found the plugin pack website. I'm sure you can find the specific source package you need from there." [23:25] bah [23:26] lol? [23:26] sorry, i just used uscan [23:26] which obviously doesn't work [23:26] noob question: how do I upstream my bug and new package version to debian? [23:27] file a bug using Debian BTS [23:27] link the bug in Debian BTS to the Ubuntu bug [23:28] i sometimes find the e-mail interface of Debian BTS more intuitive, but perhaps i'm just a crone [23:28] BUGabundo: use https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage#Forwarding%20upstream [23:29] dtchen: you are a crone (whatever it is ;) ) [23:30] "hag: an ugly evil-looking old woman" [23:30] ya, i just found it [23:31] BUGabundo: you want me to build 2.5.1 ? [23:31] and is 2.5.1 the newest one? ;) [23:31] kklimonda: sure if you don't mind [23:31] can't mess my system much more [23:31] kklimonda: I can't tell... "they" won't help further [23:32] I guess its easier to test it and see if it still crashes [23:32] :D [23:33] so reportbug -B debian p-p-p should work? [23:34] hi Lupine [23:34] BUGabundo: yes [23:34] sudo apt-get install reportbug [23:35] maybe apport could handle it too [23:35] lol [23:35] you don't have it? [23:35] probably I just have too much dev packages installed ;) [23:36] g'evening [23:36] ohhooo reportbug is much nicer [23:36] shows Dupes [23:37] debian bug 489989 [23:37] Debian bug 489989 in pidgin-plugin-pack "New Upstream Release" [Normal,Open] http://bugs.debian.org/489989 [23:37] kklimonda: 2.3 is 1yo [23:38] BUGabundo: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/163224/pidgin-plugin-pack_2.5.1-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb [23:39] You are reporting a serious bug; which section of the Debian Policy Manual contains the "must" or "required" directive that [23:39] it violates (E.g., "1.2.3")? Just type "unknown" if you are not sure (that would downgrade severity to normal). [23:39] bah... and "they" say LP is hard to use [23:39] ;D [23:41] kklimonda: $ apt-cache policy pidgin-plugin-pack Installed: 2.5.1-0ubuntu1 [23:41] still crashes [23:41] :(( [23:41] maybe problem is somewhere else?

[23:42] above my compliling knowlaoge [23:43] (11:43:25 PM) darkrain42: Yes. Get a backtrace and submit it to the plugin pack's trac (not Pidgin's).
