| Scienceman123 | Bug 408095 should be tagged as wishlist, please | 01:37 |
|---|---|---|
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 408095 in gnome-settings-daemon ""Disable touchpad while typing" should ignore modifier keys when monitoring keyboard activity" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/408095 | 01:37 |
| hggdh | Scienceman123, can you please explain why (I see no other comments in the bug)? | 01:40 |
| * hggdh is not against, just would like some reasoning | 01:40 | |
| lifeless | I'm very for | 01:40 |
| lifeless | hggdh: 'ctrl-click' | 01:40 |
| lifeless | or do mean, reason for wishlist? | 01:41 |
| hggdh | lifeless, yes. I would rather not move to wish without a comment | 01:41 |
| hggdh | every change in status should have a comment explaining why | 01:41 |
| Scienceman123 | It is not a regression | 01:42 |
| lifeless | Scienceman123: you sure about that? | 01:42 |
| Scienceman123 | And it does not fail to do something it should | 01:42 |
| Scienceman123 | It's a "It would sure be nice if" kind of thing | 01:42 |
| Scienceman123 | it seems | 01:43 |
| lifeless | its also got a solution in it. | 01:43 |
| lifeless | I suggest turning it into a patch and moving on. | 01:43 |
| Scienceman123 | Ok then | 01:43 |
| Scienceman123 | Sorry, I'm new | 01:43 |
| hggdh | Scienceman123, I am not arguing it. It is just that blind change in status should not happen. You have a good reason, so you should comment in explaining it. And I will be extremely happy to change it. | 01:43 |
| hggdh | Scienceman123, no problems, and we are glad you are helping | 01:43 |
| lifeless | indeed | 01:44 |
| hggdh | lifeless, +1 | 01:44 |
| hggdh | arghh. Hotel connections really suck :-( | 01:53 |
| hggdh | ah well. Scienceman123 has left the building. I will add the patch | 01:56 |

| yvan300 | hello all, well i am kinda new to this and would like to know a good starting point for a noobm and please don't refer me to the wiki | 17:14 |
| hggdh | yvan300, heh. Allright, I will not refer you to the wiki. But I *do* ask: have you read it? | 17:16 |
| yvan300 | hggdh: more or less, but what i really want to know is what do you recommend that i start to do first | 17:16 |
| hggdh | yvan300, OK. more or less sounds good ;-) | 17:17 |
| yvan300 | hggdh: so what should i do then? | 17:17 |
| hggdh | yvan300, I understand you want to triage bugs, right? | 17:17 |
| hggdh | (after all, this is what we do in this channel) | 17:18 |
| yvan300 | hggdh: that's the point , i don't know wht to do, i just want to help and thus i need guidance | 17:18 |
| hggdh | yvan300, we will guide you, no problems | 17:18 |
| yvan300 | hggdh: ok so what to do first then? | 17:19 |
| hggdh | yvan300, go to https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/ , and select -- say -- "newest first", anc lcik on the search buttom | 17:19 |
| yvan300 | what now hggdh | 17:20 |
| hggdh | then look at the bugs that will be shown. Select one you feel comfortable (or *less* uncomfortable), and try to see if it explains the issue, has the data needed, etc | 17:21 |
| hggdh | You *may* not feel comfortable with any of them; in this case, just get the next page, and try again | 17:21 |
| hggdh | when you find one you want to work on, start, and ask here in case of doubts | 17:22 |
| yvan300 | hggdh: do i need to know any programming to solve these, i am currently learning python | 17:22 |
| hggdh | yvan300, no, not necessarily. But you really should look at some of the wiki pages (https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/KnowledgeBase comes to mind) | 17:23 |
| hggdh | you can, if you want, fix on the python packages. It is up to you, and we will still be glad you are helping | 17:23 |
| yvan300 | hggdh: ok thanks for your help :D | 17:24 |
| hggdh | triage is the first step: we must understand what the issue is (if indeed is an issue), *then* we can try to solve it | 17:24 |
| hggdh | yvan300, you are welcome. Again, please do not hesitate to ask for help | 17:24 |
| yvan300 | hggdh: i will keep that in mind | 17:25 |
| hggdh | thank you. And thank you for helping | 17:25 |
| yvan300 | hggdh: can you run me through how you would tipically fix a bug | 17:28 |
| yvan300 | hggdh: sorry found a tut in the wiki | 17:30 |
| hggdh | yvan300, we will be here, anyway ;-) | 17:40 |
| hggdh | but, please keep in mind that *before* one can fix a problem, the problem must be understood... and this is where triaging pops up | 17:41 |
