* Hobbsee shakes her head at bugsquad05:57
* Hobbsee dupes it, as the bug person should have done05:57
Hobbseeand now launchpad dies.06:01
micahgwhy is Hobbsee shaking her head at bugsquad?06:24
Hobbseemicahg: because instead of duping it with something with an almost identical name, which is highly likely to be the same thing, they've gone and asked for more information - most of which is very likely to be in that dpkg terminal log anyway06:54
Hobbseeand we wonder why people get annoyed that their bugs don't go anywhere....06:54
micahgwell, sometimes people don't know about the dups06:58
Hobbseeperhaps they should, before commenting07:07

xteejxhggdh: I still want **NICE** themeing16:31
xteejxmicahg: I don't get that problem with compiz on or off, I use gmail for my launchpad account16:32
micahgxteejx: ok, but it's obviously not a FF problem, so where should I send it?16:33
xteejxmicahg: xorg? Could be a driver issue, I've seen similar things before on my other laptop16:33
hggdhmicahg, it might be interesting to know what add-ons are installed16:33
hggdhand, just in case, the X driver...16:34
xteejxmicahg: Get an about:plugins output from them,16:34
micahghggdh: xteejx, user tried with new profile16:34
micahgBut, I'll ask anyways16:34
micahgafter I get that, where should it go?16:34
xteejxmicahg: that may not disable extensions16:35
micahgwell, only system extensions would remain16:35
micahgbut user has trouble in vbox as well16:35
xteejxmicahg: Let us know when you get that info, i'm sure one of us can take a quick look16:35
xteejxmicahg: sounds more like a X or driver issue then16:35
xteejxcompiz disabled? stupid question16:36
micahgare you saying I asked a stupid question?16:36
xteejxlol no :) i mean i'm asking you, its a silly question16:37
xteejxbut i just noticed you already asked the user :)16:37
hggdhheh16:37
micahgso, do I need to ask for the plugins if user is experiencing in multiple apps?16:37
xteejxit can't hurt to ask what they have installed16:38
hggdhye, but if the issue is on multiple apps, it is probably no FF. Just in case, though...16:38
micahgbut then to generic xorg?16:40
xteejxI would, it would then be a display problem, from there it can be further debugged and recategorised16:40
hggdhsounds like, yes16:40
hggdhor against the specific driver in use16:41

hggdhheh16:42
xteejxis that all the debugging they'll need in FF team?16:43
micahgso, is my retraction enough16:43
micahgWell, I think it's really a JS error16:43
micahgbut my JS isn't that proficient16:43
hggdhwell, no harm. If it is not fixed, but the issue was correctly identified, the it is an upstream issue now16:43
micahgI just linked the upstream to LP16:44
xteejxi'd say thats more than enough then, its upstream as hggdh says, leave it at that16:44
micahgI just added the test case to upstream16:45
