| micahg | b.g.o now can link back to LP | 04:52 |
| madmetal | hello | 04:53 |
| micahg | hello | 04:53 |
| madmetal | i am using ubuntu 64bit and it froze three times in a row tonight , any ideas where to search logs ? | 04:54 |
| micahg | madmetal: which version of Ubuntu | 04:54 |
| madmetal | 9.04 | 04:54 |
| madmetal | i am on system log viewer but i can't find anything | 04:55 |
| micahg | I'd say enable apport and when you come back from the system crash, it will probably want to report a bug | 04:55 |
| micahg | madmetal: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport#How to enable apport | 04:56 |
| micahg | ugh | 04:56 |
| madmetal | its enabled | 04:56 |
| micahg | ok | 04:56 |
| micahg | and it doesn't ask you to submit a report? | 04:56 |
| madmetal | nop | 04:56 |
| madmetal | cause its not an app that crashes the whole system freezes and i have to reboot | 04:57 |
| micahg | '/var/log/syslog' would be the place to look | 04:57 |
| micahg | or '/var/log/Xorg.0.log' | 04:58 |
| madmetal | found this ubuntu console-kit-daemon[2537]: WARNING: Couldn't read /proc/2536/environ: Failed to open file '/proc/2536/environ': No such file or directory | 05:02 |
| madmetal | but i can't get more infos | 05:02 |
| madmetal | thanx anyway i will search it a bit more | 05:02 |

| ^arky^ | Got stuck , can I duplicate bug 371326 to bug 357814 | 08:17 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 371326 in memtest86+ "package memtest86+ 2.01-1ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: " [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/371326 | 08:17 |

| micahg | ^arky^: no, you have do move the dups first, then you can dupe it | 08:51 |
| ^arky^ | awwe, micahg ok I do that | 08:51 |
| micahg | thanks for your help ^arky^ | 08:52 |
| ^arky^ | ns, I hope to get your guidance to be good bug squasher | 08:52 |
| ^arky^ | in future | 08:53 |
| micahg | anytime you have a question, just come in here | 08:53 |
| micahg | there's usually someone here | 08:53 |
| micahg | except tonight is usually slow | 08:53 |
| ^arky^ | ok, will do that. I will hanging around in here when I am doing my 5 a day | 08:55 |
| micahg | cool | 08:55 |
| micahg | can I ask what type of bugs you've been going after? | 08:55 |
| ^arky^ | right now, I looked at speech-dispatcher, gnome-orca dups and patches | 08:56 |
| ^arky^ | mostly low-hanging fruits like unlinked bugs , dups etc.. | 08:56 |
| micahg | ok | 08:56 |
| ^arky^ | I sometimes give patches for gnome UI (bitesize) | 08:57 |
| ^arky^ | buzz me, if you have some stuff for me to help out with, I am new member bugsquad and this is first active 5-a-day | 08:57 |
| micahg | well, generally, now I think we're looking at adopting packages and trying to make sure all the major packages have someone triaging bugs regularly | 08:58 |
| ^arky^ | what mean by adopting package, like keep on eye of packages that you know about and use regularly | 08:59 |
| micahg | yeah | 09:00 |
| ^arky^ | I work with gnome-orca and gnome a11y upstream, so I usually try to triaging them | 09:00 |
| micahg | ok, that sounds great | 09:01 |
| micahg | do they have a lot of open bugs? | 09:01 |
| ^arky^ | no, not much | 09:01 |
| ^arky^ | most of bugs are give directly upstream | 09:01 |
| ^arky^ | when we get a bug, I test if its ubuntu specific or push it upstream | 09:02 |
| micahg | great | 09:02 |
| micahg | so, if that doesn't keep you busy, I'd suggest just adding 1 package at a time that you're familiar with | 09:02 |
| micahg | we're actually going to discuss this at the next meeting | 09:03 |
| micahg | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BugSquad/Meeting | 09:03 |
| ^arky^ | ok, then I drop in the next bug squad meeting | 09:03 |
| ^arky^ | ok, then I think adopt one or two package I mentioned here | 09:04 |
| micahg | ok, great | 09:07 |
| micahg | ideally, we'd have someone from bug-control adopt a package and mentor bug squad members | 09:08 |
| micahg | but this still needs to be discussed | 09:08 |
| jukkis | may i report a flaw in ubuntu? | 09:13 |
| ^arky^ | ok that sounds like a great idea. | 09:13 |
| micahg | jukkis: reports are always welcome :) | 09:13 |
| micahg | which package is it in? | 09:14 |
| jukkis | let me see.. what was that video editing software ... | 09:14 |
| jukkis | ah yes avidemux | 09:14 |
| jukkis | i have noticed a flaw in it | 09:14 |
| micahg | ok | 09:14 |
| jukkis | when i turn the volume down in avidemux it turns the volume down on the whole ubuntu system | 09:15 |
| micahg | the best way to report it is by issuing the following command on a terminal: ubuntu-bug avidemux | 09:15 |
| jukkis | and then what? | 09:15 |
| micahg | that will open your browser to launchpad and collect some information about the package on your system that will help us know about your version and system | 09:16 |
| jukkis | ah.. so sudo ubuntu-bug avidemux | 09:16 |
| micahg | then you describe the bug in as much detail as possible | 09:16 |
| micahg | no | 09:16 |
| micahg | no sudo | 09:16 |
| jukkis | ok | 09:16 |
| jukkis | let me try it | 09:16 |
| micahg | great | 09:16 |
| jukkis | let me see im not a native english speaker | 09:17 |
| jukkis | do i choose dependencies? | 09:17 |
| jukkis | or wtf lol | 09:17 |
| micahg | you shouldn't have to | 09:17 |
| jukkis | i mean where is the text field i can write into+ | 09:18 |
| jukkis | ? | 09:18 |
| jukkis | i get this apport | 09:18 |
| micahg | asking you if you wnat to report it? | 09:18 |
| jukkis | ok.. i click yes.. hopefully i can write something | 09:18 |
| micahg | yes | 09:18 |
| micahg | after you confirm it's not a duplicate | 09:18 |
| micahg | you will get a large text box | 09:19 |
| jukkis | ok.. need to register first | 09:19 |
| jukkis | i will do it someday | 09:19 |
| micahg | yes, sorry | 09:19 |
| jukkis | no problem | 09:19 |
| micahg | but that keeps us from getting lots of spam | 09:19 |
| jukkis | so whats that ubuntu brainstorming channel about? | 09:19 |
| micahg | it about new feature requests | 09:19 |
| jukkis | can i talk about ideas there? of course | 09:19 |
| micahg | it gives the community a chance to flush out an idea before the developers get involved | 09:20 |
| jukkis | yeah i hope the package manager gets improved | 09:20 |
| micahg | if you have any ideas, that'd be the place to discuss them | 09:20 |
| jukkis | white applications with ratings there and more specific categories for applications | 09:20 |
| jukkis | yeah, sorry | 09:20 |
| jukkis | its my first time on ubuntu help chats | 09:21 |
| jukkis | and such | 09:21 |
| micahg | oh, no problem | 09:21 |
| jukkis | got a printer problem | 09:21 |
| micahg | if you want support, the best place is #ubuntu | 09:21 |
| jukkis | i know | 09:21 |
| micahg | ok | 09:21 |
| jukkis | are you a developer? | 09:21 |
| micahg | we're here to help with already submitted bugs or help with submitting a bug | 09:22 |
| * micahg is a bug triager at preset | 09:22 | |
| micahg | *present | 09:22 |
| jukkis | ok | 09:22 |
| * micahg is a web developer during the day (not Ubuntu related) | 09:22 | |
| jukkis | ill go see brainstorm | 09:23 |
| jukkis | thanks | 09:23 |
| micahg | ok | 09:23 |
| eltoozero | anyone available for question? | 09:33 |
| eltoozero | (please) :) | 09:33 |
| micahg1 | sure eltoozero | 09:37 |
| === micahg1 is now known as micahg | ||
| eltoozero | micahg, hey again. | 09:37 |
| eltoozero | so I've got two almost identical machines, eee 901 and eee 1000h | 09:37 |
| eltoozero | same cpu, chipset, graphics, etc. | 09:37 |
| eltoozero | key being graphics, a GMA 950. | 09:38 |
| eltoozero | Karmic installed on both and only the 1000H has visual effects enabled by default | 09:38 |
| eltoozero | on the 901 I can't enable through gui, but I can run compiz --replace with no problems. | 09:38 |
| micahg | let me stop you | 09:38 |
| eltoozero | I'm done | 09:39 |
| * micahg doesn't know about eee pcs | 09:39 | |
| micahg | you might want to try #ubuntu+1 | 09:39 |
| eltoozero | less a hardware specific issue | 09:39 |
| micahg | this is really a channel for bug triage/problems submitting bugs | 09:39 |
| micahg | #ubuntu+1 is for karmic cupport | 09:39 |
| micahg | *support | 09:39 |
| eltoozero | generally, since they're the same hardware, I'm trying to figure out where to report the bug about the detection | 09:39 |
| eltoozero | not trying to get it working, I know it should be working and can work | 09:40 |
| micahg | ah | 09:40 |
| micahg | ok | 09:40 |
| micahg | sorry | 09:40 |
| micahg | so it's a compiz problem? | 09:40 |
| eltoozero | no worries, I appreciate the info, didn't realize there was a support channel | 09:40 |
| micahg | yep | 09:40 |
| eltoozero | I *think* so? | 09:41 |
| micahg | ok | 09:41 |
| eltoozero | but compiz works | 09:41 |
| eltoozero | :/ | 09:41 |
| micahg | Is compiz not detecting something? | 09:41 |
| eltoozero | it seems to be in the gui of visual effects, or during the install? | 09:41 |
| micahg | or is the hardware not being detected? | 09:41 |
| eltoozero | compiz --replace works. | 09:41 |
| micahg | but the compiz gui does not? | 09:41 |
| eltoozero | hitting the option in visual effects *tries* but then just reports "can't be enabled" | 09:41 |
| micahg | ah | 09:42 |
| eltoozero | rite | 09:42 |
| micahg | ok | 09:42 |
| micahg | so, I'd say ubuntu-bug compiz | 09:42 |
| micahg | if it needs to be moved, it can be | 09:42 |
| eltoozero | place to start is all I need | 09:42 |
| eltoozero | thanks again man, I'll make sure to hit up ubuntu+1 and lend a hand where I can. | 09:43 |
| eltoozero | keep up the good work | 09:43 |
| micahg | no problem, that would be great | 09:43 |
| micahg | and feel free to come back if you need a place to start again | 09:43 |
| eltoozero | yea, I'm sure this isn't the last time you'll hear from me. | 09:44 |
| ^arky^ | eltoozero, try this http://playingwithsid.blogspot.com/2009/08/how-to-override-compiz-blacklist.html | 09:55 |
| eltoozero | ^arky^, I'll check that out, thanks. | 09:57 |
| eltoozero | If I find a bug report with tags that it requires certain logs, and someone has uploaded them, is it prudent for me to notice that and remove those tags? | 09:59 |
| micahg | which tags? | 09:59 |
| eltoozero | needs-lspci-vvnn, needs-xorglog | 10:00 |
| eltoozero | ^arky^, that allowed me to enable Visual Effects without any trouble... | 10:06 |
| ^arky^ | cool | 10:07 |
| eltoozero | ^arky^, I gave you credit in the bug, thanks. | 10:11 |
| ^arky^ | thanks | 10:15 |
