| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 444155 in telepathy-butterfly "[needs-packaging] New release for telepathy-butterfly, update to 0.5.1" [Wishlist,New] | 02:29 |
| aryonoco | Hi all. Want to report a bug about a wireless card which is not recognised by Karmic. Which package should I submit the bug to? | 02:57 |
| mahdi | Hi, I cannot use persian character in Wine applications ! should I add my language somewhere ? It shows the characters as square ! | 03:25 |
| kklimonda | bug 446817 is missing a coredump, is it because user decided not to send full report? | 03:47 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 446817 in transmission "transmission crashed with SIGSEGV in malloc()" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/446817 | 03:47 |
| hggdh | might be, kklimonda. Never did any non-full report, but sounds like it | 04:04 |
| kklimonda | yeah, just dug into source | 04:04 |
| kklimonda | it's most likely that | 04:04 |
| hggdh | well, anyway, we already know is memory related ;-) | 04:05 |
| kklimonda | heh :) | 04:07 |
| hggdh | er, kklimonda, I think you forgot to state what is the crucial data we were missing | 04:08 |
| kklimonda | heh, not really - but I forgot to mention that he has to send complete report | 04:10 |
| kklimonda | thanks for reminding me. | 04:11 |
| kklimonda | I shouldn't really do this at this hour but got too curious about it to go to sleep | 04:11 |
| hggdh | heh. And I am going to hit the pillow in a few, and I am *at least* 7 hours earlier than you... | 04:14 |
| hggdh | that is, if you are Paris time | 04:14 |
| kklimonda | more or less | 04:14 |
| kklimonda | it's UTC+1 I think | 04:15 |
| kklimonda | or maybe +2 at this time of the year | 04:15 |
| hggdh | and I am UTC-5 | 04:22 |
| hggdh | or UTC-6, never remember | 04:22 |
| hggdh | df -k . | 04:23 |
| hggdh | oops, wrong windows | 04:23 |
| kklimonda | ok, work done.. now I can.. hmm.. go to sleep for 2 hours.. | 04:23 |
| kklimonda | oh well, whatever - cu :) | 04:24 |
| hggdh | cu | 04:24 |
| kklimonda | hggdh: happens to me all the time :) | 04:24 |

| beakergeek724 | Just installed Karmic and I can't figure out which package to file a bug report against. Gnome-do and indicator-applet both fail to display messages correctly. | 08:35 |
| beakergeek724 | I'm not sure what they have in common, but the problem looks the same in both. | 08:36 |
| thekorn_ | beakergeek724, what do you mean by "fail to display messages correctly", can you show me a screenshot? | 08:38 |
| thekorn_ | is it string encoding? | 08:38 |
| beakergeek724 | It looks similar to what I see when a program just displays the random noise that happens to be in the unused video memory. I'll see if I can get a screenshot. | 08:39 |
| beakergeek724 | Here's what I see when I run gnome-do: http://www.flickr.com/photos/matthewstinar/3995159770/ | 08:45 |
| beakergeek724 | But when I get an IM in Empathy, I see a similar block where I'm supposed to see a notification. | 08:47 |
| thekorn_ | beakergeek724, I think the target of your bugreport depends on the graphic card/driver you use | 08:51 |
| beakergeek724 | Lshw shows it as "Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]". So this would be a bug in the open source ATI driver? | 08:55 |
| thekorn_ | beakergeek724, ok, so I think you should report your bug by running ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-video-ati | 09:02 |
| beakergeek724 | thekorn_, Thanks. I was able to find an existing bug that describes my problem. | 09:08 |
| kblin | morning folks | 09:29 |
| kblin | I've just reported a bug that was closed as a dup, but I can't access the one it's a dup of | 09:29 |
| kblin | how do I get information on that bug? | 09:30 |
| micahg1 | kblin: what's the bug #? | 09:31 |

| kblin | bug #433186 | 09:32 |
| ubot4 | kblin: Bug 433186 on http://launchpad.net/bugs/433186 is private | 09:32 |
| kblin | thanks ubot4 so I noticed | 09:32 |
| kblin | which does explain why I didn't see a bug report about this in the list, of course :) | 09:33 |
| micahg | yes, there's some text in there that I"m not sure about | 09:34 |
| micahg | I'm not comfortable making it public | 09:35 |
| micahg | but someone else might know what that string it | 09:35 |
| micahg | *is | 09:35 |
| micahg | kblin: things should pick up in here in an hour or 2 | 09:35 |
| kblin | ok, it's not that urgent | 09:36 |
| kblin | I don't have a kill switch for bluetooth anyway | 09:36 |
| kblin | though I do have issues with bluetooth not being found on that box | 09:36 |
| kblin | I was wondering if that was related | 09:37 |
| kblin | I just was a bit annoyed to get an email telling me my report was a dup, just to go to that bug's page and get told that no, I can't look at it | 09:38 |
| joaopinto | kblin, I had the same problem, decided to remove the dup from mine | 09:38 |
| kblin | that's a good point, though :) | 09:39 |
| micahg | please don't do that especially if it's duped by the retracer | 09:42 |
| joaopinto | micahg, I did that and I got the bug fixed upstream, unlike the other private bug which never got any work | 09:43 |
| micahg | oh | 09:43 |
| micahg | hmmm | 09:43 |
| joaopinto | if we report a bug we expect to follow-up the bug | 09:43 |
| kblin | hehe | 09:43 |
| kblin | I can't re-mark it as dup anyway :) | 09:43 |
| micahg | yes, but the best thing to do is to come in here like kblin and ask for it to be made public | 09:43 |
| joaopinto | the retracer when chosing between a public and private bug, should set the duplication on the private on, since a public bug is much more handy in general | 09:43 |
| kblin | I agree there | 09:44 |
| joaopinto | micahg, not everyone that files bugs knows abouts #ubuntu-bugs, it introduces another type of resource into a bug report workflow | 09:44 |
| micahg | joaopinto: well, not that +filebug redirects to an instruction page, people will | 09:44 |
| micahg | (now | 09:44 |
| kblin | there's no way to recover attachments, I take? | 09:45 |
| micahg | it's also in the list of IRC channels | 09:45 |
| micahg | kblin: from what? | 09:45 |
| joaopinto | micahg, I don't remember reading anything about #ubuntu-bugs when using ubuntu-bug, also, I would not expect someone to be forced to use IRC to follow-up a bug :) | 09:45 |
| kblin | the retracer deleted all the attachments on my bug report when it decided it was a bug | 09:46 |
| micahg | well, that's true if you use ubuntu-bug | 09:46 |
| micahg | kblin: yes, because they were unnecessary and might pose a security risk to you once the bug is made public | 09:46 |
| micahg | there can be private data in the attachments | 09:47 |
| joaopinto | erm, isn't that the visibility field is for ? | 09:47 |
| kblin | which is why I looked through the attachments before submitting. I didn't see anything. Arguably I didn't strings the coredump.. | 09:47 |
| * kblin shrugs | 09:48 | |
| micahg | yeah, the coredump is the main problem | 09:48 |
| micahg | in terms of security | 09:48 |
| micahg | that's why crashes are private by default | 09:48 |
| joaopinto | I need to file a bug against retracer, I hope it doesn' nuke him :P | 09:49 |
| kblin | yeah, but information about my system would be helpful, and now I need to reenter it manually | 09:49 |
| kblin | joaopinto: if you do, file a bug about that ;) | 09:49 |
| joaopinto | would it be a launchpad bug ? | 09:49 |
| joaopinto | retracer is LP builtin right ? | 09:49 |
| micahg | well | 09:49 |
| micahg | not exactly | 09:50 |
| joaopinto | it's an external bot ? | 09:50 |
| micahg | https://edge.launchpad.net/~apport | 09:50 |
| joaopinto | micahg, tks | 09:50 |
| micahg | kblin: like I said, check back here in a few hours and someone should be able to make public, I'm just not comfortable doing it | 09:53 |
| micahg | joaopinto: I'll mention in our next meeting about making this channel more prominent for bug help | 09:54 |
| kblin | micahg: thanks, even if you're gone now :) | 09:57 |

| rbanffy_ | Hi, folks. The page at "https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-sis/+filebug" is redirecting to "https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs". Is that normal? I would like to report a crash my netbook suffered when plugging in a second screen while running off the Karmic beta CD, but it seems next to impossible | 12:48 |
| rbanffy_ | And it's even more impossible because I am on another computer that doesn't run Ubuntu (it could, conceivably) | 12:50 |
| Pici | rbanffy_: The page it redirects you to explains how to file a bug manually if you cannot use the tools within Ubuntu to file the bug. | 12:51 |
| rbanffy_ | Pici: What was wrong with the old, traditional way, of filing bugs? ;-) Thanks. I found it. Wouldn't it be nice to have a "I know what I am doing, just file it" link somewhere? | 12:57 |
| Pici | rbanffy_: The new way tries to make sure that all the debug information is included with the report so that bugs don't need to be filed as incomplete. | 12:58 |
| rbanffy_ | Pici: I understand this is a better way, but it won't work when the system about which you are reporting the bug is not running. It shouldn't be that hard to file a bug in these less than ideal situation. A lot of bugs will go unreported this way | 13:00 |

| chommik | hello | 16:57 |
| jonathan1 | hello | 16:58 |
| chommik | i'd like to file a bug in beta, but i don't know the package responding for it | 16:59 |
| chommik | i think that is may be caused by not stopping gdm at restart. | 16:59 |
| jonathan1 | sorry, I am not the one to help. | 16:59 |
| jonathan1 | I am sure that someone here will help | 17:00 |
| chommik | it's not a serious bug, but only a bit annoying | 17:00 |
| hggdh | chommik: what happens? | 17:02 |
| chommik | hggdh: at end od install it seems that Xorg restarts | 17:05 |
| chommik | and can't reboot | 17:05 |
| hggdh | during install from the ISO, then? | 17:05 |
| chommik | i choose install mode (second position from bootloader) | 17:06 |
| hggdh | open a bug against debian-installer | 17:06 |
| chommik | okay, thanks :) | 17:06 |

| hggdh | micahg: looking | 17:10 |
| hggdh | micahg: I do not think there is any private data there -- too early in the init (and it is HAL), so I went ahead and marked it public | 17:12 |

| unit3 | Before I file something on launchpad, has anyone seen authentication problems with libpam-ldap on karmic? | 22:45 |
| unit3 | Identical configs (which have worked since feisty) now fail on a fresh karmic install. | 22:46 |
| unit3 | libnss-ldap is working fine, so "getent passwd" shows all the right accounts, but libpam-ldap now fails to verify account existence, or auth creds. | 22:46 |
| hggdh | unit3: did you search LP for a hit? | 22:47 |
| unit3 | I did, there's no open bugs on the package that are similar from what I can see. | 22:48 |
| hggdh | OK. Then I would say this is good enough to open a new bug. | 22:48 |
| unit3 | Alright. I guess that means no-one in here has a quick fix. Damn. :) | 22:49 |
| unit3 | New bug it is! :) | 22:49 |
| unit3 | oh look... now it works. wth. well, maybe the problem was with the ldap server and nscd then, and now that I've puzzled over it for an hour, it fixed itself. | 22:51 |
