| micahg | kwall: I think they go into the linux package | 07:21 |
| micahg | but | 07:21 |
| micahg | it probably depends on the type of bug | 07:22 |

| kwall | micahg: Thanks. was triaging some bugs and came across a suspend/resume bug. | 07:23 |
| DanaG | hmm, I have some bugs that don't seem to have been "officially" replied to at all; anything I can do about them? Right now, I have just one main one I can think of right now. | 07:23 |
| DanaG | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/284319 | 07:24 |
| ubot4` | Launchpad bug 284319 in linux "mute, brightness buttons on new HP 6930p laptop" [Undecided,New] | 07:24 |
| micahg | DanaG: generally, it's good practice to open a new bug for a new issue, while the issues themselves were the same, you had different hardware | 07:26 |
| DanaG | Actually, the base cause is exactly the same. Same keycode, same product line, same drivers in Windows. | 07:27 |
| micahg | I would suggest opening a new bug for each issue that you are still experiencing | 07:28 |
| DanaG | oh, but yeah, there are two actual _behaviors_ described. | 07:28 |
| DanaG | One's the "keycodes rejected" -- that may only be fixed with xinput 2; the other is the fdi file. | 07:28 |
| micahg | yes, but aren't the modifications for each piece of Hardware different? | 07:29 |
| DanaG | Nope, should be able to just match for EliteBook. All models should have that in the name. | 07:29 |
| DanaG | oh yeah, and the mute-LED gpio issue is another separate issue. Right. | 07:29 |
| micahg | Yes, but the original bug was for HP hardware, is elitebook HP? | 07:30 |
| DanaG | yeah. | 07:30 |
| micahg | ok | 07:30 |
| micahg | well, I'm not familiar with the hardware packages, so I would suggest coming back during the day and asking again | 07:31 |
| DanaG | EliteBook line has 12" non-tablet 2530p, 12" tablet 2730p, 14" 6930p, 15" 8530{p,w}, and 17" 8730w. | 07:31 |
| micahg | ah | 07:31 |
| micahg | so, you might be just fine then, i apologize | 07:31 |
| micahg | but | 07:31 |
| micahg | I would suggest coming back when a triager familiar with hardware is in | 07:32 |
| DanaG | I do have a couple of actual symptoms described, though -- true enough. | 07:32 |
| DanaG | The list: FDI file needs tweaking, Xorg rejects >255 (has a link to a relevant report), and mute LED. | 07:32 |
| YoBoY | good morning | 07:34 |
| kwall | YoBoY: good evening | 07:34 |
| YoBoY | hi kwall :) | 07:35 |
| micahg | YoBoY: you familiar with hardware bug triage? | 07:36 |
| YoBoY | i'm only familiar to annoying posters when the bugs are old in this type of bug ^^" | 07:37 |
| YoBoY | but i can take a look... | 07:38 |

| DanaG | take a look at scrollback a bit. | 07:40 |
| DanaG | I do realize that there are a couple of issues... but the easiest one to fix is the fdi file. | 07:40 |
| YoBoY | yep | 07:41 |
| YoBoY | if you want to learn more about it, i have a link : http://people.freedesktop.org/~hughsient/quirk/index.html | 07:42 |
| DanaG | http://cgit.freedesktop.org/hal-info/tree/fdi/information/10freedesktop/30-keymap-hp.fdi | 07:43 |
| DanaG | already fixed in git. yay. | 07:43 |
| YoBoY | :) | 07:43 |
| DanaG | heh, lots of duplication between tx2 and business tablet. | 07:44 |
| kwall | That's all the damage I can do for one night. | 07:44 |
| DanaG | I've also created my own script to tell me status of ambient light sensor -- it fires that event when you hit the toggle key, but the toggle itself is in firmware or hardware. | 07:45 |
| YoBoY | i can't help more for this type of bugs :] | 07:46 |
| YoBoY | if it's related to the bug, put your script on it | 07:46 |
| YoBoY | to help others | 07:47 |
| DanaG | eh, that script won't be useful until userspace can actually receive F23. =þ | 07:47 |
| DanaG | I tweaked my own fdi file to make it use a reachable keycode. | 07:47 |
| YoBoY | ok :D | 07:47 |
| KhaaL | hey all, i'd like to submit a bug regarding the systray widget in kde4, which package is it? | 07:54 |

| KhaaL | micahg, why thank you! =) | 07:57 |
| micahg | KhaaL: no problem | 08:01 |
| KhaaL | hmm, i'm having trouble knowing *which* package i should submit the bug against still... using xprop gives me the "Plasma", which is too general. and there seem no package beginning with plasma in the repos that seems relevant | 08:01 |
| KhaaL | should i just report it against kubuntu-kde4-desktop? | 08:02 |
| micahg | kdebase-plasma | 08:02 |
| KhaaL | thank you again micahg | 08:03 |
| micahg | so you should do ubuntu-bug kdebase-plasma | 08:03 |
| KhaaL | aye :> | 08:03 |
| micahg | KhaaL: Please try to be as descriptive as possible | 08:03 |
| micahg | Here's a link we give people to help them learn how to report bugs: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html | 08:04 |
| KhaaL | micahg, of course. would be pointless to make more work for you guys by letting you guys do half the work by just guessing | 08:04 |
| KhaaL | I've submitted bugs before | 08:04 |
| micahg | KhaaL: You would be surprised how many don't realize that :) | 08:05 |
| micahg | great :) | 08:05 |
| micahg | thank you | 08:05 |
| KhaaL | micahg hehe, i can imagne the frustration it breeds! ;-) | 08:05 |

| KhaaL | I've been seriously considering that, but I don't know how confident I am that I'll do a good job in there.. | 08:07 |
| micahg | Well, the people in here are very helpful | 08:07 |
| micahg | if you don't know something ask | 08:07 |
| micahg | and try your best | 08:07 |

| Ampelbein | xteejx: in the case of that report, there was a bug that was fixed. as steve states, the hibernation handling was faulty and removed from acpi-support to pm-utils. so the correct status is "Fix Released". "Invalid" should be used when the user updated and the problem goes away without knowing, what has caused the bug to be fixed. | 12:48 |

| ubot4` | Launchpad bug 374055 in firefox-3.0 "Firefox goes to the wrong version of ubuntu release notes" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/374055 | 14:56 |
| charlie-tca | bug 274605 is for firefox giving ubuntu release notes | 14:57 |
| ubot4` | Launchpad bug 274605 in ubufox "Firefox release notes show Ubuntu release notes" [High,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/274605 | 14:57 |
| charlie-tca | Shouldn't 374055 be invalid since firefox should never show Ubuntu release notes? | 14:57 |
| YoBoY | charlie-tca: for me it's a bug on a bug, or the release notes sould show the firefox notes (first bug), or it show the releases notes of the installed ubuntu version | 15:04 |
| charlie-tca | The application should show the application release notes, not the distribution release notes. If it was gedit, would you expect to see Ubuntu release notes? | 15:05 |
| YoBoY | nop :) | 15:05 |
| charlie-tca | Firefox is an application. It should show firefox release notes... | 15:06 |
| YoBoY | i agree | 15:06 |
| charlie-tca | so, would 374055 be a duplicate of 274605 ? | 15:09 |

| YoBoY | charlie-tca: ho.. ok yes it's a duplicate, i don't know why it's not marked as duplicate yet, i have talked this case last week ^^" | 15:12 |
| YoBoY | sorry | 15:12 |
| YoBoY | (not realy last week... :p) | 15:13 |
| charlie-tca | no problem. I thought it was discussed, too. But it was another dup, I think | 15:13 |
| blueyed | charlie-tca, YoBoY: I don't think so.. the one is about Ubuntu release notes instead of FF ones, the other about the wrong ubuntu release notes. | 15:13 |
| blueyed | (haven't read everything there though) | 15:14 |
| charlie-tca | blueyed: if the application shows Ubuntu release notes instead of it's own, is it invalid, then? | 15:14 |
| charlie-tca | Why shouldn't it show it's own release notes? | 15:14 |
| YoBoY | blueyed: but the bug is this is not the firefox release notes in the two bugs | 15:15 |
| blueyed | I don't know how it's intended. but apparently two issues.. 374055 would be invalid, if 274605 is a bug. | 15:15 |
| blueyed | YoBoY: so I would close 374055 as invalid and refer to 274605 about being the real bug. | 15:15 |
| charlie-tca | Why should any application show the release notes for the disto? If gedit showed me Ubuntu release notes, I would consider it very wrong | 15:16 |
| YoBoY | well... the problem here is someone choose to put the ubuntu release notes on firefox, the first step is to find who and why... | 15:17 |
| blueyed | charlie-tca: yes, you're right.. btw: in karmic it still links to 810 release notes. | 15:17 |
| charlie-tca | Yes, but it is 810 Ubuntu, still | 15:17 |
| blueyed | maybe check changelog.Debian.gz about why and when it has been done. | 15:17 |
| charlie-tca | it was done versions ago | 15:18 |
| charlie-tca | gutsy did it | 15:18 |
| brunogirin | when you find a bug that is duplicate of another, what status do you change the duplicate bug to? | 15:19 |
| blueyed | and it's considered a bug (accepted). | 15:19 |
| YoBoY | i don't change the status, i mark duplicate only | 15:19 |
| blueyed | brunogirin: I ususally invalidate the duplicate, but it's not required. | 15:19 |
| blueyed | charlie-tca: are you triaging 374055 now? | 15:20 |
| brunogirin | blueyed: thanks, will do | 15:20 |
| charlie-tca | I am tryinhg to decide what to do with it | 15:21 |
| charlie-tca | brunogirin: change it to invalid | 15:21 |
| blueyed | (IMHO, invalid, and add a comment to the other bug; stating that it should not display ubuntu release notes at all). Well, maybe make it a dupe even (so it's linked better). | 15:21 |
| bddebian | Boo | 15:21 |
| charlie-tca | bddebian: hoo | 15:21 |
| bddebian | :) | 15:21 |
| micahg | blueyed: Don't change status to invalid on dups, it automatically is removed from searches | 15:21 |
| micahg | charlie-tca: can you mar some bugs triaged for me? | 15:22 |
| charlie-tca | micahg: I think that has been changed. The last time I saw a response from bdmurray, he said invalid them | 15:22 |
| charlie-tca | I can triage, micahg | 15:22 |
| micahg | charlie-tca: that doesn't make any sense though | 15:22 |
| micahg | If you dup a bug, LP auto invalidates | 15:22 |
| charlie-tca | No, it used to invalidate, I think it takes a while for it too, now | 15:23 |
| micahg | I've done it recently | 15:23 |
| blueyed | micahg: well.. but it helps when doing more advanced searches, where they might show up as "New" then. it's a controversial topic (the last time I've checked it). | 15:23 |

| charlie-tca | Try for a gdb backtrace | 16:01 |
| charlie-tca | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace | 16:02 |
| xteejx | i assume thats for micahg | 16:02 |
| charlie-tca | No, yours | 16:02 |
| xteejx | oh right ok | 16:03 |
| charlie-tca | If the logs are failing, the backtrace should gather the needed info | 16:03 |
| charlie-tca | But they have to install debug symbols to make it work | 16:03 |
| xteejx | -dbg packages? | 16:03 |
| charlie-tca | yes. | 16:04 |
| charlie-tca | for ppp | 16:04 |
| charlie-tca | Since the logs are corrupting, we want to try to find out why | 16:04 |
| xteejx | ok charlie thanks :) | 16:04 |
| xteejx | i cant see any dbg for ppp in apt | 16:05 |
| charlie-tca | poor guy been asked enough if it is still a problem. Maybe backtrace will show why it happens | 16:05 |
| xteejx | i'm still going through all these really old ones | 16:05 |
| xteejx | theres ppp-dev | 16:06 |
| micahg | charlie-tca: bug 274575, Low -> Triaged? | 16:07 |

| charlie-tca | What is he using for a driver? It might be ppp-dev | 16:07 |
| xteejx | hmmmm | 16:08 |
| charlie-tca | sometimes the debug symbols are hidden in -dev files | 16:08 |
| charlie-tca | xteejx: I am not seeing enough there to actually resolve his bug, even though I am sure exists and should not happen | 16:09 |
| charlie-tca | micahg: done | 16:09 |
| xteejx | ill ask him what driver he's using and if he can try and grab a backtrace with -dv | 16:09 |
| xteejx | -dev | 16:09 |
| charlie-tca | worth a try. If he can't get a backtrace, I don't what to suggest except get people to quit asking if it still happens | 16:10 |
| xteejx | lol | 16:10 |
| charlie-tca | Perhaps a request to the kernel team to look at it? Isn't that where ppp comes from now? | 16:11 |
| micahg | charlie-tca: thanks | 16:11 |
| xteejx | charlie-tca: pass | 16:12 |
| xteejx | Question: Why does the Bugs/Repsonses wiki page always say "can you try with the latest Ubuntu release"? What about the LTS versions? That's something thats always confused me | 16:25 |
| charlie-tca | Because if it is fixed in the latest release, the SRU could be done to backport the fix | 16:26 |
| xteejx | ahh ok makes sense | 16:26 |
| charlie-tca | LTS normally doesn't get all the fixes, because you can break too much by fixing it | 16:27 |
| xteejx | i see, like dependencies and stuff | 16:27 |
| charlie-tca | yeah | 16:27 |
| xteejx | so LTS means Long Term Support if we can fix it :) | 16:28 |
| charlie-tca | Yes, | 16:28 |
| charlie-tca | If I am a normal user, I do not want to have to load a new version every 6 months. I want to use what I have | 16:29 |
| charlie-tca | and hopefully, I learn to work around the issues with it | 16:29 |
| xteejx | i thought it would make more sense upgrading.....its 99% safe | 16:30 |
| charlie-tca | It is that 1% that breaks that makes it hard on the user | 16:30 |
| micahg | xteejx: I actually changed that to version of Package X | 16:31 |
| micahg | oops | 16:31 |
| micahg | change it when I use it | 16:31 |
| xteejx | huh? | 16:31 |
| micahg | like if the bug is reported with FF 3.0.1 | 16:31 |
| micahg | I will say can you try the latest version of Firefox | 16:31 |
| micahg | vs Ca you try the latest Release? | 16:32 |
| xteejx | i.e. non repo version? | 16:32 |
| micahg | no, repo version | 16:32 |
| micahg | FF is backported | 16:32 |
| micahg | some things aren't | 16:32 |
| micahg | haha, the confirmed at triaged lines on the hug day page have kissed :) | 16:33 |
| charlie-tca | That only works with a very few applications. Most of the apps are not updated to latest versions in Ubuntu, so you have to try the latest livecd to get them | 16:33 |
| micahg | true charlie-tca | 16:33 |
| micahg | also, some users have upgraded after reporting the bugs | 16:34 |
| xteejx | ohhh you mean in an LTS version, i understand now, was confused for a sec there | 16:34 |
| xteejx | micahg, i've noticed about 75 of the old bugs have upgraded from obsolete versions anyway | 16:34 |
| xteejx | ie 7.04/.10 | 16:34 |
| xteejx | *75% | 16:35 |
| xteejx | i need a new keyboard....... | 16:35 |
| micahg | indeed | 16:35 |
| charlie-tca | I been trying to teach mine to type, too | 16:35 |
| xteejx | lol | 16:35 |
| xteejx | its this laptop its been thrown, dropped down stairs....still going | 16:36 |
| charlie-tca | I never thought of throwing it down the stairs, usually just dropping it works | 16:37 |
| charlie-tca | lol | 16:37 |
| xteejx | there was a comma there :P | 16:37 |
| xteejx | failed insurance attempt at getting a new one lol | 16:37 |
| xteejx | anyway guys im off for a bit ill catch you all later/tomorrow | 16:38 |
| brunogirin | how do you handle bugs that are reported in a language other than English? Does it help to translate the report to English and what language should I use to request more info from the user reporting it? | 16:45 |
| charlie-tca | Normally, if you know the language, translate it, but ask in English | 16:45 |
| charlie-tca | I have done a couple where I translated the report in a comment, and translated the summary and change it to show both languages | 16:47 |

| xteejx | what about setting it to triaged? | 20:19 |
| charlie-tca | eventually, it will be resolved. | 20:19 |
| charlie-tca | sure, it can be triaged | 20:19 |
| xteejx | can be triaged, or can be set to triaged? | 20:19 |
| xteejx | personally it explains the problem, any less dev should understand it | 20:20 |
| charlie-tca | The only thing left that should trigger it is 6.06 to 8.04 | 20:20 |
| charlie-tca | mark it triaged | 20:20 |
| xteejx | thought so | 20:20 |
| xteejx | thx charlie | 20:20 |
| charlie-tca | 7.10 is already eol, so it should be gone in a year or two | 20:20 |

| xteejx | of course but text based consoles are usually "LESS" problematic haha | 20:24 |

| xteejx | hey hey BUGabundo | 21:50 |
| charlie-tca | Hello, BUGabundo | 21:51 |
| xteejx | Anyone? And I'm right in putting that in the bug report right, as it's reached EOL. | 21:52 |
| charlie-tca | Who is who? loomis? He has only commented on one bug, 122567 | 21:52 |
| xteejx | That's what i mean, whats he doing? | 21:53 |
| charlie-tca | Hard to tell. See if he responds to you or not. | 21:53 |
| xteejx | He's not subscribed so he won't see it | 21:54 |
| xteejx | not immediately anyway | 21:54 |
| charlie-tca | then it won't matter. | 21:54 |
| charlie-tca | He might be trying to learn how to triage | 21:54 |
| xteejx | What's icu got to do with an oowriter crash though? | 21:55 |
| xteejx | !info icu | 21:55 |
| ubot4` | xteejx: Package icu does not exist in jaunty | 21:55 |
| xteejx | ^^ enough said | 21:55 |
| charlie-tca | I don't know, but that is what the reporters error was in | 21:56 |
| kklimonda | xteejx: hmm.. rmadison says that there is icu for 9.04 and 9.10 | 21:56 |
| xteejx | what is icu anyway? | 21:56 |
| kklimonda | so package is supported - but 7.04 isn't ;) | 21:56 |
| xteejx | good enough for me ;) | 21:57 |

| xteejx | thanks micahg | 22:00 |
| micahg | np | 22:00 |
| xteejx | I think people are gonna get annoyed keep seeing ""Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with lieve so many bugs were missedthe latest Ubuntu release? Thanks in advance."" soon....cant be | 22:04 |
| xteejx | ...cant believe so many bugs were missed | 22:04 |
| micahg | well | 22:05 |
| micahg | actually probably not too many were actually missed | 22:05 |
| micahg | the reports just haven't been updates xteejx | 22:05 |
| xteejx | i've done about 200 in the past week or 2 | 22:05 |
| micahg | bugs were missed? | 22:05 |
| micahg | or not updated? | 22:05 |
| charlie-tca | Are you trying to reproduce the issues? | 22:06 |
| micahg | there are tons not updated | 22:06 |
| xteejx | well of the 200, prob about 40-50 completely missed | 22:06 |
| micahg | well | 22:06 |
| micahg | did you check upstream? | 22:06 |
| kklimonda | xteejx: well - there are only so many of us.. | 22:06 |
| micahg | maybe they are open issues | 22:06 |
| xteejx | i'm getting them to check it themselves if i cant reproduce | 22:06 |
| xteejx | if they've replied and said its an open issue, i triage it :) | 22:07 |

| captivus | Hello again. I've read through the material that you (xteejx, micahg) linked me to. I've just pulled up my first bug to triage, and I believe that it's incomplete, but before I run off marking bugs "Incomplete" I would welcome any guidance that you can offer. Would one of you mind chatting with me to validate my thought process? | 22:50 |
| xteejx | sure | 22:50 |
| xteejx | what bug is it? | 22:51 |
| captivus | 379219 | 22:51 |
| captivus | It occurs to me that I haven't searched to see if this is a dupe. | 22:51 |
| captivus | ...so I should probably do that first, right? | 22:52 |
| charlie-tca | bug 379219 | 22:52 |

| charlie-tca | Are you running karmic, captivus ? | 22:52 |
| * captivus notes the semantics for interacting with ubot4` | 22:52 | |
| xteejx | yes, first thing, dupe check if possible | 22:52 |
| xteejx | ubotu has many functions: | 22:52 |
| captivus | charlie-tca: Negative. I see why you've asked, though, and I realize that this is probably not the bug for me. | 22:52 |
| xteejx | !bug | 22:52 |

| xteejx | etc... | 22:53 |
| captivus | xteejx: That is quite useful to know. | 22:53 |
| * captivus contemplates installing karmic for this purpose ... | 22:53 | |
| xteejx | no need it stoo bleeding edge at the mo | 22:54 |
| BUGabundo | captivus: there are VMs for something | 22:54 |
| captivus | How do you all do it? Do you guys dual-boot development releases or dedicate boxen to them? | 22:54 |
| xteejx | i only use jaunty | 22:54 |
| BUGabundo | I install in on hw | 22:54 |
| charlie-tca | I would pick a different bug. Karmic will have a lot of things not working for another month. | 22:54 |
| xteejx | i normally wait until alpha 3 until i bother with it | 22:54 |
| * captivus takes mental note of the advice rendered. | 22:55 | |
| captivus | I'll look for another bug, I think. | 22:55 |
| xteejx | i think thats wise lol :) | 22:55 |
| BUGabundo | charlie-tca: for another 6 months eheh | 22:55 |
| xteejx | you could help me by going through old untriaged bugs, i.e. package assigned, new status | 22:55 |
| charlie-tca | Yeah, but a lot of the bugs disappear after UDS | 22:55 |
| xteejx | charlie-tca, i think thats a hopeful statement lol | 22:56 |
| captivus | xteejx: Sure. I'd be thrilled to help. | 22:56 |

| captivus | Well, I'm sitting next to two boxes running 9.04, so I'd be happy to help -- provided that you don't mind a few questions (some of which are bound to be a bit daft) along the way. | 22:57 |
| captivus | ;) | 22:57 |
| xteejx | lol don't worry about daft questions, most of us here are daft anyway ;) | 22:58 |
| captivus | Whew! ;) | 22:58 |
| xteejx | hggdh, charlie-tca and micahg were confusing everyone with a package called "less" earlier, more has more functions than less, more or less | 22:58 |
| xteejx | hehe | 22:58 |
| charlie-tca | But it was true! | 22:59 |
| charlie-tca | :-) | 22:59 |
| xteejx | i know thats whats funny!! | 22:59 |
| captivus | Hmm ... that URL y ou gave me doesn't seem to lead to anything different than I had pulled-up via the BugSquad wiki ... | 22:59 |
| BUGabundo | xteejx: ROFL | 22:59 |
| captivus | xteejx: HA! | 22:59 |
| BUGabundo | I'll RT that | 22:59 |
| hggdh | no, less is more than more, no questions! | 22:59 |
| xteejx | what have i said?? | 22:59 |
| BUGabundo | do you guys concent me to post your nicks online ? | 23:00 |
| xteejx | depends where bug | 23:00 |
| charlie-tca | personally, I think more is less! | 23:00 |
| BUGabundo | xteejx: EVERYWHERE | 23:00 |
| hggdh | BUGabundo, fell free. This is already logged | 23:00 |
| xteejx | murr - go for it BUGabundo, doesn't bother me, just link us later :) | 23:00 |
| captivus | xteejx: Was the URL you gave a moment ago intended for me? | 23:00 |
| charlie-tca | I thought this was all public already? | 23:00 |
| hggdh | personaly, I agree with charlie-tca, more or less | 23:00 |
| xteejx | yes captivus | 23:00 |
| xteejx | hggdh, lol | 23:01 |

| xteejx | BUGabundo, i got no probs with posting us, just link us with it :) | 23:01 |
| hggdh | let's stop, lest the newbies here get utterly confused and lost | 23:01 |
| captivus | xteejx: It doesn't seem to yield anything different to the link (to LP) from the BugSquad wiki page I was linked to earlier. Is that expected? | 23:01 |
| xteejx | i'm not new but i still get confused | 23:01 |
| hggdh | oops, visitors. BRB | 23:01 |
| captivus | (I ask only because it sounded like you had a particular focus in your efforts.) | 23:01 |
| xteejx | click last page captivus | 23:02 |

| micahg | I missed another round of more is less apparently | 23:04 |
| xteejx | micahg, yeah you did more or less ;) | 23:04 |
| charlie-tca | It's more or less, though :-) | 23:05 |
| xteejx | bcurtiswx, theres a conference meeting or something which i believe he's attending this week before UDS | 23:05 |
| micahg | too bad I didn't get paged...:P | 23:05 |
| xteejx | you did | 23:05 |
| bcurtiswx | im just reading his away.. all-hands meeting apparently | 23:05 |
| xteejx | thats the one | 23:05 |
| bcurtiswx | hmm, who else can i ping for bog control membership extension | 23:06 |
| bcurtiswx | eek bug* | 23:06 |
| xteejx | i havent seen your application yet, hggdh, charlie-tca? | 23:06 |
| bcurtiswx | xteejx: im already a member :P | 23:06 |
| xteejx | ohhh an extension | 23:07 |
| xteejx | ermmm hang on | 23:07 |
| charlie-tca | To extend membership. Needs an administrator from bug-control in launchpad | 23:07 |
| charlie-tca | bcurtiswx: might have to email brian | 23:07 |
| bcurtiswx | charlie-tca: does LP send an e-mail when its about to expire (i just marked an estimate when i got accepted) | 23:08 |
| charlie-tca | Sends it to you, but I don't think it sends it to him | 23:08 |
| bcurtiswx | i meant me, but ok.. i will wait for that | 23:08 |
| xteejx | Brian Murray, Henrik Nilsen, Jorge O. Castro, and Leann Ogasawara are admins in LP Bug Control, if you can get in touch with any of them, they can extend your app | 23:08 |
| bcurtiswx | i imagine they're all at all-hands though | 23:09 |
| xteejx | BM is | 23:09 |
| charlie-tca | I would expect that | 23:09 |
| xteejx | and if they're not, they're prob packing for next week | 23:09 |

| ogasawara_ | bcurtiswx: lp should send you reminder approx 2 weeks I think before your membership expires | 23:09 |
| ogasawara_ | bcurtiswx: what's your lp id? | 23:10 |
| captivus | xteejx: "Binary package hint: ftp | 23:10 |
| captivus | LFTP has better support for everything, for example reading from fifo that ftp is unable to. lftp should be included instead of ftp by default." | 23:10 |
| xteejx | captivus, i believe that is a wishlist bug, if its not already implemeted | 23:10 |
| bcurtiswx | i must suck at guestimations then.. lol its this name bcurtiswx | 23:10 |
| captivus | "Wishlist bug"? | 23:10 |
| xteejx | captivus, ubotu puts all that info into IRC anyway ;) | 23:10 |
| captivus | d'oh! | 23:10 |
| kklimonda | yeah, it's a wishlist imo | 23:10 |
| captivus | My apologies. | 23:10 |
| captivus | Yes -- that was my opinion. | 23:10 |
| xteejx | it's a request for something to be implemented or changed | 23:10 |
| captivus | ...does it belong in the bug tracker, then? | 23:10 |
| xteejx | only bug control can change that, ill do it | 23:10 |
| captivus | I'd have thought not | 23:11 |
| xteejx | yes | 23:11 |
| captivus | Oh ... well, what do I know! | 23:11 |
| captivus | ;) | 23:11 |
| xteejx | done | 23:11 |
| charlie-tca | you know enough to ask! :-) | 23:11 |
| captivus | Cheers! | 23:11 |
| xteejx | very ture | 23:11 |
| captivus | charlie-tca: LOL. Fair enough. | 23:11 |
| xteejx | *true | 23:11 |
| bcurtiswx | ogasawara_: bcurtiswx | 23:11 |
| xteejx | really, if you don't know, ask :) | 23:11 |
| micahg | captivus: you might want to direct user with this comment https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#An%20idea%20to%20improve%20Ubuntu | 23:11 |
| xteejx | no-one here will think any less of you, or more or less, but yeah, helpful bunch here | 23:12 |
| micahg | brainstorm would be the place to propose such a thing | 23:12 |
| captivus | xteejx: Thrilled to learn that. | 23:12 |
| captivus | micahg: I'll do so. Thanks! | 23:12 |
| charlie-tca | Yup, everytime I think I know what I'm doing, someone straightens me out, more or less ;-) | 23:13 |
| xteejx | lmao | 23:13 |
| captivus | charlie-tca: I've heard that less is, in actual fact, more in some cases. | 23:13 |
| xteejx | depends how you use it lol | 23:14 |
| xteejx | more or less | 23:14 |
| * BUGabundo is getting tired of more less... | 23:14 | |
| captivus | LOL | 23:14 |
| charlie-tca | I heard that, too, except when more is actually les | 23:14 |
| bcurtiswx | i think the cup is more or less full | 23:14 |
| xteejx | anyway guys im off for the night its after 11pm ill be back on tomorrow | 23:15 |

| bcurtiswx | ogasawara_: much appreciated, thanks | 23:17 |
| micahg | ugh | 23:26 |
| micahg | well the bug day had some impact | 23:26 |
| charlie-tca | Yes it did. You played a big part in that, too. Thanks | 23:28 |
| micahg | Is there any point in continuing to log ot the hugday page after 30 minutes | 23:28 |
| micahg | charlie-tca: the thing is, I would have done it anyways | 23:29 |
| charlie-tca | sure. It is still thursday here for another 8 hours | 23:29 |
| micahg | ok | 23:29 |
| micahg | 8 hours? You on PDT? | 23:29 |
| charlie-tca | MDT | 23:29 |
| micahg | ah | 23:29 |
| micahg | ok | 23:29 |
| micahg | is this considered a succesful bugday? | 23:30 |
| charlie-tca | Bug day is always calculated to local times, anywhere you are | 23:30 |
| charlie-tca | yes, I think it is. | 23:30 |
| micahg | with 4 people helping? | 23:30 |
| micahg | this is only the second one I've done so I don't know | 23:31 |
| charlie-tca | Every bit helps. With so many gone and getting ready to go, it counts! | 23:31 |
| micahg | it just seems like last week had a lot more people helping | 23:31 |
| charlie-tca | We did more than would have been done if we cancelled the hugday | 23:31 |
| micahg | true :) | 23:31 |
| micahg | BTW, how do I make cool graphs like the one at the bottom of the hugday page | 23:32 |
| charlie-tca | I don't know. I just fill in the blanks. | 23:32 |
| micahg | what do you mean? | 23:32 |
| charlie-tca | {{http://people.ubuntu.com/~brian/complete-graphs/firefox-3.0/plots/firefox-3.0-1day-triaging.png}} | 23:32 |
| micahg | it's a generated file | 23:33 |
| charlie-tca | yeah. Brian did it | 23:33 |
| micahg | so I guess I have to ask him | 23:33 |
| charlie-tca | Yeah, he will know how to do it. | 23:33 |
| micahg | what's the next hugday for? | 23:33 |
| charlie-tca | Thunderbird | 23:34 |
| micahg | ah | 23:35 |
| micahg | I can do that :) | 23:35 |
| captivus | Are these held weekly? | 23:35 |
| captivus | ...monthly? | 23:35 |
| charlie-tca | Yes, every Thursday | 23:35 |
| captivus | I see | 23:36 |
| charlie-tca | And there are special ones for the kernel team, too | 23:36 |
