arandAre the reomte bug watcher for bugzilla supposed to ste status automatically, and should I set a "fix released" on the upstream for Bug #246177 ?03:00
ubot4Launchpad bug 246177 in gnumeric "gnumeric help on plot log scale unclear" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/24617703:00
arand*Is *remote *set03:00
hggdharand, they should auto-update. Sometimes it fails, though.03:01
hggdhgive it a day; if still not updated, do it yourself.03:01
hggdharand, in this case you may also want to ask at #launchpad for what happened03:01
micahgit should say on the bug when the last update was03:02
micahgLaunchpad couldn't import bug #563275 from GNOME Bug Tracker.03:02
arandupstream update was four weeks ago, as noted.03:03
micahgcheck in #launchpad about a b.g.o problem03:03
arandb.g.o ?03:03
hggdhhum. Yes, b.g.o updated bugzilla some time ago (recent), so there might still be some quirks03:04

micahghggdh: 15 minutes with Karmic Alpha 5 and 3 new bugs :)03:11
hggdhyeeeeh03:13
micahgThat's why I wait for beta to upgrade :)03:18
hggdhme, I like to suffer, and have been running karmic since the beginning03:23
* micahg uses Ubuntu for work03:23
* hggdh also03:23
micahgneeds 99%+ working03:23
hggdhwell, I also need it -- this is my official work instrument. But, being careful, I have never had an issue that put me down for more than one hour03:24
hggdhso, when I do an update, I am very, very carefull on what I am updating03:25

qenseThere was a post on Ubuntu Planet lately containing a nicely done infographic pointing us at a way of adding bug links to Bugzilla bug reports. I can't find that box on GNOME Bugzilla. Did they disable it, or can you only do it when reporting a bug?17:47
pedro_qense, you mean the box of the "add bug urls:"  ?17:51
qenseprobably17:52
pedro_qense, i can see it here without any issues17:52

qenseIs there someone who can help me with bug #410763 ? I don't know enough about stack traces to say what caused the freezes in Rhythmbox and Banshee during playback, although I suspect GStreamer.18:44
ubot4Launchpad bug 410763 in banshee "[karmic] Banshee freeze after some song playback" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/41076318:44
hggdh qense, you mean the last backtrace (last comment)?18:47
qenseyes, although that contains a lot of nothing18:48
hggdhyes, it is very incomplete18:48
hggdhit seems the reporter did not install the necessary dbgsyms18:48
qensealthough the second latest also is the right one, at http://launchpadlibrarian.net/30425942/banshee-thread.log18:49
qenseI forgot that18:49
qensethe latest is about the X freeze iirc18:49
qensebut you say this isn't enough information to properly determine the cause?18:50
hggdhno, there is not enough data... it seems the reporter had the glib dbgsym, and libc6, but no much more18:52
hggdhso we do not know who is doing what18:52
hggdhhum18:52
hggdhone easy way for the reporter: force another freeze, and then go to the console, and kill -11 banshee. This will create a SIGSEGV, and apport will kick in for it. Then open a new bug, and write the bug # in the current one18:53
hggdhreason is the apport backoffice retrace will take care of loading the correct dbgsyms, and we will have a kosher trace to work on18:54
qenseha, that's a nice way of getting the right information18:55
qenseI'll ask him to do so18:55
qensethanks for your help!18:55

micahgthe problem might be in grub20:52
micahgbut I think it tries to rebuild an image even when removing20:52
micahgI wasn't sure it a script in thelinux package was controlling it though20:53
ogasawaramicahg: how were you trying to install?  apt-get install20:53

micahgI was using aptitude20:53
micahgI installed 2.6.28-1520:53
micahgit failed20:53
micahgdue to space20:53
micahgI tried removing 2.6.28-1120:53
micahgit failed since it couldn't rebuild an image in /boot on uninstall20:54
micahgmaybe I should attach the dpkg terminal log20:54
micahgbut I fiigured it was either a pre or post install script in the linux package20:54

BUGabundofeel free to help23:10
BUGabundoOTOH I refuse to accept packages that I don't have the source, or control the way they have been build23:11
bdmurrayeltoozero: since this is hardware specific reporting a new bug is best.  It is much easier to consolidate bugs than separate them.23:13
eltoozerobdmurray, our hardware is the same, just in different boxes23:17
eltoozeroDell mini 9 also runs a GMA 950 and i945.23:18
eltoozeroI ask because I've got the same hardware, just not specifically the Dell.23:19
bdmurrayeltoozero: well, if you are positive it is the same video card then it'll likely be fine.  However, you might end up needing to rereport if they aren't the same.23:19
eltoozerobdmurray, it's always a judgment call, if the spec didn't match I would have indeed made a new bug.23:21
eltoozeroThanks people!23:21
