Want to report a bug about a wireless card which is not recognised by Karmic. Which package should I submit the bug to? [03:25] Hi, I cannot use persian character in Wine applications ! should I add my language somewhere ? It shows the characters as square ! [03:47] bug 446817 is missing a coredump, is it because user decided not to send full report? [03:47] Launchpad bug 446817 in transmission "transmission crashed with SIGSEGV in malloc()" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/446817 [04:04] might be, kklimonda. Never did any non-full report, but sounds like it [04:04] yeah, just dug into source [04:04] it's most likely that [04:05] well, anyway, we already know is memory related ;-) [04:07] heh :) [04:08] er, kklimonda, I think you forgot to state what is the crucial data we were missing [04:10] heh, not really - but I forgot to mention that he has to send complete report [04:11] thanks for reminding me. [04:11] I shouldn't really do this at this hour but got too curious about it to go to sleep [04:14] heh. And I am going to hit the pillow in a few, and I am *at least* 7 hours earlier than you... [04:14] that is, if you are Paris time [04:14] more or less [04:15] it's UTC+1 I think [04:15] or maybe +2 at this time of the year [04:22] and I am UTC-5 [04:22] or UTC-6, never remember [04:23] df -k . [04:23] oops, wrong windows [04:23] ok, work done.. now I can.. hmm.. go to sleep for 2 hours.. [04:24] oh well, whatever - cu :) [04:24] cu [04:24] hggdh: happens to me all the time :) [04:24] I only get insomnia when I am traveling [04:24] about 80% of the time === micahg1 is now known as micahg [08:35] 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. [08:36] I'm not sure what they have in common, but the problem looks the same in both. [08:38] beakergeek724, what do you mean by "fail to display messages correctly", can you show me a screenshot? [08:38] is it string encoding? [08:39] 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. [08:45] Here's what I see when I run gnome-do: http://www.flickr.com/photos/matthewstinar/3995159770/ [08:47] But when I get an IM in Empathy, I see a similar block where I'm supposed to see a notification. [08:51] beakergeek724, I think the target of your bugreport depends on the graphic card/driver you use [08:55] Lshw shows it as "Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]". So this would be a bug in the open source ATI driver? [09:02] beakergeek724, ok, so I think you should report your bug by running ubuntu-bug xserver-xorg-video-ati [09:08] thekorn_, Thanks. I was able to find an existing bug that describes my problem. [09:29] morning folks [09:29] I've just reported a bug that was closed as a dup, but I can't access the one it's a dup of [09:30] how do I get information on that bug? [09:31] kblin: what's the bug #? === micahg1 is now known as micahg [09:32] bug #433186 [09:32] kblin: Bug 433186 on http://launchpad.net/bugs/433186 is private [09:32] thanks ubot4 so I noticed [09:33] which does explain why I didn't see a bug report about this in the list, of course :) [09:34] yes, there's some text in there that I"m not sure about [09:35] I'm not comfortable making it public [09:35] but someone else might know what that string it [09:35] *is [09:35] kblin: things should pick up in here in an hour or 2 [09:36] ok, it's not that urgent [09:36] I don't have a kill switch for bluetooth anyway [09:36] though I do have issues with bluetooth not being found on that box [09:37] I was wondering if that was related [09:38] 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] kblin, I had the same problem, decided to remove the dup from mine [09:39] that's a good point, though :) [09:42] please don't do that especially if it's duped by the retracer [09:43] micahg, I did that and I got the bug fixed upstream, unlike the other private bug which never got any work [09:43] oh [09:43] hmmm [09:43] if we report a bug we expect to follow-up the bug [09:43] hehe [09:43] I can't re-mark it as dup anyway :) [09:43] yes, but the best thing to do is to come in here like kblin and ask for it to be made public [09:43] 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 [09:44] I agree there [09:44] micahg, not everyone that files bugs knows abouts #ubuntu-bugs, it introduces another type of resource into a bug report workflow [09:44] joaopinto: well, not that +filebug redirects to an instruction page, people will [09:44] (now [09:45] there's no way to recover attachments, I take? [09:45] it's also in the list of IRC channels [09:45] kblin: from what? [09:45] 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 :) [09:46] the retracer deleted all the attachments on my bug report when it decided it was a bug [09:46] well, that's true if you use ubuntu-bug [09:46] kblin: yes, because they were unnecessary and might pose a security risk to you once the bug is made public [09:47] there can be private data in the attachments [09:47] erm, isn't that the visibility field is for ? [09:47] which is why I looked through the attachments before submitting. I didn't see anything. Arguably I didn't strings the coredump.. [09:48] * kblin shrugs [09:48] yeah, the coredump is the main problem [09:48] in terms of security [09:48] that's why crashes are private by default [09:49] I need to file a bug against retracer, I hope it doesn' nuke him :P [09:49] yeah, but information about my system would be helpful, and now I need to reenter it manually [09:49] joaopinto: if you do, file a bug about that ;) [09:49] would it be a launchpad bug ? [09:49] retracer is LP builtin right ? [09:49] well [09:50] not exactly [09:50] it's an external bot ? [09:50] https://edge.launchpad.net/~apport [09:50] micahg, tks [09:53] 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 [09:54] joaopinto: I'll mention in our next meeting about making this channel more prominent for bug help [09:57] micahg: thanks, even if you're gone now :) === markus__ is now known as thekorn_ [12:48] 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 [12:50] And it's even more impossible because I am on another computer that doesn't run Ubuntu (it could, conceivably) [12:51] 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. [12:57] 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? [12:58] 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. [13:00] 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 === bdefreese2 is now known as bddebian [13:12] Pici: Thanks. #447174 reported old-style. === marjomercado is now known as marjo === thekorn is now known as Guest46897 === thekorn_ is now known as thekorn === yofel_ is now known as yofel [16:10] hello === marjomercado is now known as marjo [16:57] hello [16:58] hello [16:59] i'd like to file a bug in beta, but i don't know the package responding for it [16:59] i think that is may be caused by not stopping gdm at restart. [16:59] sorry, I am not the one to help. [17:00] I am sure that someone here will help [17:00] it's not a serious bug, but only a bit annoying [17:02] chommik: what happens? [17:05] hggdh: at end od install it seems that Xorg restarts [17:05] and can't reboot [17:05] during install from the ISO, then? [17:06] i choose install mode (second position from bootloader) [17:06] open a bug against debian-installer [17:06] okay, thanks :) [17:06] welcome [17:10] hggdh: can you at bug 433186, one of the people with dupes was requesting it be made public [17:10] micahg: Bug 433186 on http://launchpad.net/bugs/433186 is private [17:10] but I wasn't sure about the stacktrace [17:10] micahg: looking [17:12] 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 [17:13] ok, wasn'l sure about the string if characters [17:13] *of [17:53] hey folks [17:54] my bug was closed as a dup of bug #433186 [17:54] Launchpad bug 433186 in hal "hald-addon-ipw-killswitch crashed with SIGSEGV in __libc_start_main()" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/433186 [17:54] ah, nm [17:54] I should have rechecked first [17:55] Hi, i'm new, i don't understand exactly how to help, what shall i do when i see a new bug in the list? [17:56] try it for myself? see the package where it belongs? where assign a package? [17:56] or try the programs and report bugs? [17:58] anyone with a Nvidia card running gnome with compiz enabled care to try something out for me, please? [17:59] cyn, start by reading the channel topic === jsalisbury_ is now known as jsalisbury [19:32] One of the updates I just installed today makes Xorg peg my CPU. How can I get a list of which packages were updated? [19:32] Synaptic's History doesn't show it, I guess because aptdaemon was performing the update [19:33] maybe /var/log/dpkg.log ? [19:34] ah, thank you joaopinto === micahg1 is now known as micahg [22:18] which package do I mark for a translation issue? [22:37] anyone with a Nvidia card running gnome with compiz enabled care to try something out for me, please? [22:45] Before I file something on launchpad, has anyone seen authentication problems with libpam-ldap on karmic? [22:46] Identical configs (which have worked since feisty) now fail on a fresh karmic install. [22:46] 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. [22:47] unit3: did you search LP for a hit? [22:48] I did, there's no open bugs on the package that are similar from what I can see. [22:48] OK. Then I would say this is good enough to open a new bug. [22:49] Alright. I guess that means no-one in here has a quick fix. Damn. :) [22:49] New bug it is! :) [22:51] 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] that's ok with me, actually. ;) [22:52] Can someone who has bug control permissions set Bug #291853 back to Triaged. Thanks.
