| thekorn | hey ^arky^ | 07:36 |
| ^arky^ | micahg: I have subscribed ubuntu-main-sponsers to bug 491327 | 07:52 |
| micahg | ^arky^: is that the normal procedure? | 07:53 |
| ^arky^ | no, | 07:53 |
| ^arky^ | but this is a critical bug | 07:53 |
| ^arky^ | since all gnome accessibility depends on this | 07:53 |
| ^arky^ | so I kinda of desperate ! :( | 07:53 |
| ^arky^ | micahg: can you suggest any better way of resolving this issue? | 07:54 |
| micahg | ^arky^: find the person who uploaded the last release and ping :) | 07:54 |
| micahg | ^arky^: asking in -motu was a good idea also | 07:55 |
| * micahg was just a little distracted | 07:55 | |

| * hggdh kicks ubot4 | 15:42 | |
| hggdh | nigel_nb: why do you think it is a wish? Note that I am not against it, I just want to know your reasoning | 15:51 |
| nigel_nb | hggdh: sorry to be late, was away | 15:56 |
| hggdh | np | 15:56 |
| nigel_nb | my reasoning is that, it is a feature request | 15:57 |
| hggdh | :-) so far, yes, we agree. But is it a decent one? Does it make sense? | 15:57 |
| hggdh | what is the gain? | 15:58 |
| nigel_nb | hm, that I'm not sure | 15:58 |
| nigel_nb | refer him to brainstrom? | 15:58 |
| hggdh | no, I do not think it is needed to get to brainstrom | 15:58 |
| hggdh | it is just that one of the thing expected from us is to read and understand (and consider, and reason) | 15:59 |
| nigel_nb | so if its too trivial or unncessary, we can mark it as invalid? | 15:59 |
| hggdh | if it is unnecessary, we post our understanding of *why* it is unnecessary, and ask for comments from the reporter | 16:00 |
| hggdh | if it is trivial... it is more difficult. Triviality does not imply a bad request. | 16:01 |
| nigel_nb | this sounds unnecessary doesnt it? | 16:01 |
| hggdh | the point is the triager is expected to explain why an action is being taken | 16:01 |
| hggdh | no, not really. I am unsure on what gain there would be to pop up a notification that downloads are in progress, since notifications are shown for a brief period | 16:02 |
| nigel_nb | i.e., why it is being elevated to wish list? | 16:02 |
| hggdh | yes, why you think it is a wish. You can also put your thoughts on possible issues. Remember, a maintainer will eventually get to the bug, and will wonder why an action was taken | 16:03 |
| nigel_nb | so I'll first ask the reasoning behind why this feature is needed.. | 16:04 |
| hggdh | rule of thumb: *any* change of status or importance should be commented | 16:04 |
| nigel_nb | in other words, dont click the yellow thingie and change the status or important | 16:04 |
| nigel_nb | *importance | 16:04 |
| hggdh | YES! | 16:05 |
| hggdh | this is A Bad Thing To Do | 16:05 |
| nigel_nb | I always click on the triangle and change, so the change can be commented and I can subscribe | 16:05 |
| hggdh | even if later on we find ourselves to be wrong | 16:05 |
| hggdh | (being wrong is no big deal) | 16:06 |
| nigel_nb | okay :) | 16:06 |
| nigel_nb | after all, we're all human eh? | 16:06 |
| hggdh | that's the idea, indeed | 16:06 |
| hggdh | even I am wrong. Rarely, of course ;-) | 16:06 |
| nigel_nb | hehe | 16:07 |
| nigel_nb | so, in this case, I'll ask him for more information and reasoning | 16:07 |
| nigel_nb | but, I want you to just check out wat I'm gonna put in so that it doesn't offend the other preson | 16:08 |
| nigel_nb | hggdh: how about this "Thank you for your bug report. All updates will be notified for a few moments always. Please clarify further why the check boxes are necessary. Thanks in Advance." ? | 16:13 |

| yoasif | anyone have any ideas on diagnosing this? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/492057 i can't even get a backtrace because it freezes Xorg when I try to | 19:12 |
| hggdh | heh. Already on Lucid | 19:14 |
| hggdh | yoasif: apport does not trigger? | 19:14 |
| yoasif | hggdh: nope | 19:15 |
| hggdh | and it is enabled, correct? | 19:15 |
| micahg | hggdh: I saw pitti say yesterday that apport wasn't enabled on lucid yet | 19:15 |
| micahg | by default | 19:15 |
| yoasif | hggdh: yes, it triggers for other things | 19:15 |
| yoasif | i have it enabled in the conf file, so it is enabled | 19:16 |
| yoasif | it wasnt working before, but i reenabled update manager and it works fine now | 19:16 |
| hggdh | yoasif: then it is a rather diffcult thing to debug... | 19:16 |
| yoasif | hggdh: heh, sadly it's a real bug too :/ | 19:17 |
| micahg | I thought there was a new system to catch x crashes | 19:17 |
| hggdh | it may well be initial incompatibility while Lucid is being set up | 19:17 |
| yoasif | yea | 19:17 |
| micahg | I saw a post on the devel list about it | 19:17 |
| yoasif | i don't really /need/ it too much since im using gnome do | 19:17 |
| hggdh | hold on | 19:17 |
| hggdh | no, it did not pan out -- seb had published a new gnome-panel, but the changes should not affect this | 19:20 |
| yoasif | heh | 19:20 |
| yoasif | also... havent filed a report yet | 19:20 |
| yoasif | but resume from suspend is acting kinda wonky after upgrade to lucid | 19:20 |
| yoasif | machine comes back from suspend | 19:20 |
| yoasif | but screen is blank | 19:20 |
| yoasif | i can enter a password, hit enter -- nothing happens | 19:21 |
| hggdh | there we go again on resume issues... :-( | 19:21 |
| yoasif | swich to vt1, back to vt7, everything works | 19:21 |
| hggdh | oh, interesting | 19:21 |
| hggdh | yes, open a bug, and describe what you do | 19:22 |
| hggdh | but, for the gnome-panel, perhaps you can discuss at -desktop | 19:22 |
| hggdh | jeez, I hate windows... | 19:22 |
| yoasif | the channel? | 19:22 |
| hggdh | (mean Microsoft Windows) | 19:22 |
| yoasif | no, #ubuntu-desktop? | 19:23 |
| hggdh | yoasif: also -- and perhaps this is why apport is still disabled on Lucid -- it may be too early in the cycle for bugs | 19:23 |
| hggdh | yes | 19:23 |
| yoasif | ouch :( | 19:24 |
| hggdh | things *usually* break at this point in time | 19:24 |
| yoasif | lol... | 19:24 |
| yoasif | this is true | 19:24 |
| yoasif | well, ill file the kernel bug | 19:24 |
| yoasif | suspend worked great in karmic, which was awesome :) | 19:24 |
| hggdh | heh | 19:28 |
| hggdh | this is why I usually run +1 in a VM that early in the cycle | 19:29 |
| yoasif | VMs are boring :p | 19:29 |
| hggdh | but safer. I *need* my laptop ;-) | 19:30 |
| yoasif | hehe | 19:32 |
| yoasif | i have a desktop for backup | 19:32 |
| yoasif | although i should grab a karmic livecd asap | 19:32 |
| yoasif | so i can restore my machine if bad shit starts happening | 19:32 |
| yoasif | i ran karmic as +1 for the whole cycle... no significant issues that required reinstallation | 19:32 |
| yoasif | this is an upgraded jaunty install | 19:33 |
| bdmurray | mac_v: could you use a package instead of just opening "ubuntu" bug tasks for one hundred paper cuts things? | 19:54 |
| mac_v | bdmurray: yeah , the stuff I'm sure of , I assign the package right away , some which i'm not sure I assign it just to Ubunutu | 19:55 |
| mac_v | :( | 19:55 |
| bdmurray | mac_v: bug 488478 and bug 388400 seemed pretty straight forward to me | 19:55 |
| mac_v | bdmurray: the problem , is the papercut bugs are sometimes getting too vague in the description and rather than describing the problem , they just say , we want this fixed , so i wasnt sure | 19:56 |
| bdmurray | both of those bug reports mentioned the package name in them | 19:56 |
| mac_v | bdmurray: hmm , maybe i missed them , will make sure the next time :) | 19:56 |
| mac_v | bdmurray: bug 488478 started to look more like a couchbd / evolution / OOo bug to me ... the bug title and description was updated after i assigned to Ubuntu | 20:01 |

| nigel_nb | bug 492136 | 20:57 |
| nigel_nb | I reported it upstream and upstream says its a pulse audio bug | 20:57 |
| nigel_nb | whats the procedure now? | 20:57 |
| nigel_nb | what happened to the bot? grr | 20:57 |
| hggdh | let me look at it | 20:58 |
| nigel_nb | here's the link https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/492136 | 20:58 |
| hggdh | the bot is right now very discreet -- you have to /msg ubot4 <whatever> and it will answer you directly | 20:58 |
| nigel_nb | why? :( the other way was better | 20:58 |
| nigel_nb | something to beat the lonliness :P | 20:59 |
| hggdh | they are looking at it | 20:59 |
| hggdh | ok. Back to the bug | 20:59 |
| hggdh | yes, indeed, seems a PA issue | 20:59 |
| hggdh | (or related to PA) | 21:00 |
| hggdh | so... right now -- reset the package to PA, and tell the reporter we need a stacktrace | 21:00 |
| hggdh | so they need to enable apport, get the ST, and open a *new* bug via apport | 21:00 |
| hggdh | and ask them to report back in this bug with the new bug #. Then we close this one, and follow up on the new | 21:01 |
| hggdh | crashes without a backtrace are not really useful, genereally | 21:02 |
| hggdh | (unless you can repeat it) | 21:02 |
| hggdh | and I still hate Microsoft Windows. Mainly Vista | 21:03 |
| nigel_nb | sorry, browser got stuck | 21:05 |
| nigel_nb | did u say somethin earlier? | 21:05 |
| kklimonda | hggdh: isn't hate a too strong word? ;) | 21:05 |
| hggdh | kklimonda: not for Vista. I am ashamed to say I am Ms-certified | 21:06 |
| kklimonda | hggdh: I really liked Vista SP1 ;) | 21:06 |
| hggdh | heh | 21:06 |
| hggdh | my wife's laptop barfed on a FS error. chkdsk /f corrects it, and the FS immediately forgets it has been fixed | 21:06 |
| hggdh | so the only way to boot is via system repair, and never gets out of it | 21:07 |
| nigel_nb | hggdh: I missed whatever happened after I said about lonliness | 21:07 |
| hggdh | but... kudos for knoppix | 21:07 |
| kklimonda | hggdh: interesting bug | 21:07 |
| hggdh | nigel_nb: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/334742/ | 21:08 |
| nigel_nb | hggdh: thanks | 21:08 |
| hggdh | yes indeed, kklimonda. Were it to be my system, I would play with it. But my wife is really not happy | 21:08 |
| hggdh | so... boot on knoppix, save all Gbytes that need to be saved, restore to factory setting, apply some 6 hours of patches, boot knoppix, recover the Gbytes of data | 21:09 |
| hggdh | and, of course, chkdsk /b -- which takes just about 1 hour | 21:10 |
| joaopinto | hggdh, you are likely to have bad sectors, scrap the disk :P | 21:12 |
| hggdh | joaopinto: I know... but cannot, right now. I do not know where I saved the Dell recovery CD | 21:13 |
| hggdh | so I am stuck | 21:13 |
| hggdh | but the chkdsk /b should update the bad blocks table | 21:14 |
| joaopinto | hggdh, except if the badblocks are located on the FS metadata | 21:14 |
| hggdh | then I am screwed. I do not think so, though, given that thefsck checks the metadata, and did not barf | 21:15 |
| WeatherGod | hiya, could someone mark bug 486993 as triaged. I don't know if it is enough info, but there are plenty of log info that should help the kernel people | 21:44 |

| hggdh | yes it is | 21:49 |
| hggdh | but you can get to it by /msg ubot4 | 21:49 |
| etali | hggdh Do you really need the recovery CD? Could you borrow / burn a Windows CD and just use the serial number provided with the PC? (Hopefully your sticker is in a better state than the one on my laptop, which I forgot to write down, and has now been smudged into oblivion) | 21:51 |
| hggdh | etali: I *could* but it is usual for Dell (and other manufacturers) to add in special drivers | 21:52 |
| WeatherGod | yeah, Dell is especially bad for that | 21:53 |
| etali | •hggdh• Ah, good point. We got away with a spare CD for a Packard Bell, but don't know anyone that owns Dells | 21:53 |
| hggdh | heh I own some 5 of them, all different hardware | 21:53 |

| WeatherGod | sorry, my keyboard is a bit sticky | 22:48 |
| WeatherGod | the other -en packages are there | 22:49 |
| jmarsden | In what directory were you expecting to find this file? Do you have a URL to it on another mirror? | 22:49 |
| WeatherGod | look at bug 462041 | 22:49 |
| jmarsden | If you say that as bug #462021 you give us a link :) | 22:50 |
| WeatherGod | the bot is broken | 22:50 |
| jmarsden | Or not... OK! | 22:50 |
| WeatherGod | you can do /msg ubot4 | 22:50 |
| jmarsden | WeatherGod: This bug shows "connection refused" msgs... not a missing file. | 22:51 |
| WeatherGod | yeah, but click them now | 22:52 |
| WeatherGod | and another user reporter said he was experiencing issues for over two weeks | 22:52 |
| WeatherGod | and that was two weeks ago | 22:52 |
| jmarsden | Wait, are you working on that bug, or on a new bug about one file you just discovered... I'm confused :) | 22:52 |
| WeatherGod | I am trying to diagnose the problem, yes | 22:53 |
| jmarsden | http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/i18n/ shows me all the expected files, I think... | 22:53 |
| jmarsden | Is that the location you are referring to? | 22:54 |
| WeatherGod | and notice what is missing | 22:54 |
| jmarsden | It has en_GB but not en_US. | 22:54 |
| WeatherGod | exactly! | 22:55 |

| dragon | jmarsden: I couldn't. | 23:36 |
| jmarsden | Then it sounds like a bug, so file it if you want :) | 23:36 |
| dragon | jmarsden: if you hit F4 or F5, defaults are Normal and None. F6 has acpi=off as default, and I don't know if that was intentional. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootOptions | 23:37 |
| jmarsden | dragon: Seems illogical, so let's call it a bug. | 23:38 |
| dragon | jmarsden: ok cool. What package would it fall under? | 23:39 |
| jmarsden | dragon: ubiquity, I would think... that's the Ubuntu installer, as far as I now | 23:39 |
| jmarsden | *know | 23:40 |
| dragon | jmarsden: the installer that show up at boot time - is that ubiquity? I thought that menu launched ubiquity. | 23:40 |
| dragon | I'll make it ubiquity and let them decide. | 23:42 |
| jmarsden | Sounds reasonable :) | 23:42 |
| dragon | uh, now this is annoying | 23:42 |
| dragon | clicking on Report a bug link in launchpad takes me to a wiki page | 23:43 |
| dragon | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug | 23:43 |
| dragon | positive | 23:43 |
| mrand | dragon: could you file it with the command ubuntu-bug <package> I'm wondering if the package should be gfxboot | 23:43 |
| dragon | mrand: I'm not using the system involved, so I didn't want the local info to be uploaded in the bug report. | 23:45 |
| dragon | also, gfxboot package is described as "This package is needed to create the graphical boot logos for gfxboot" | 23:45 |
| mrand | dragon: I found that gfxboot-theme-ubuntu 0.5.2 was where F6 was added | 23:46 |
| mrand | dragon: as for filing the bug, most of the way down that wiki page, it gives a hint how to file the bug directly. | 23:46 |
| dragon | mrand: got it | 23:47 |
| mrand | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gfxboot/+filebug | 23:48 |
| mrand | may get you there as well. | 23:48 |
| mrand | Thanks for the bug report, dragon! | 23:48 |
| dragon | mrand: no problem. It's my duty after all. | 23:48 |
| mrand | dragon: ooops, hold on. | 23:48 |
| mrand | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gfxboot/+bug/47703 | 23:48 |
| dragon | old bug | 23:50 |
| dragon | unfixed | 23:50 |
| mrand | yeah :-( | 23:50 |
| dragon | but there's no text box now | 23:50 |
| mrand | I suppose you could put a quick note that it is still present in Karmic. | 23:50 |
| dragon | mrand: That'd be easier. I'm unable to file a new bug any way, due to an unresponsive server. | 23:51 |
| dragon | (Error ID: OOPS-1434B3391) | 23:51 |
| mrand | dragon: that's strange.... someone else earlier this week reported the same thing. | 23:51 |
| mrand | could it be a proxy or related problem? | 23:52 |
| dragon | I'm a part of launchpad beta testers, and the error page mentioned that as a possible cause of the problem | 23:52 |
| dragon | "Our edge server has a lower timeout threshold than launchpad.net, so we can catch those before they hit a wider audience. As a member of the Launchpad Beta Testers team, you're more likely to experience them. If this is blocking your work, you can disable redirection." | 23:52 |
| dragon | But the "disable redirection" button did me no good. | 23:52 |
| mrand | right. I don't think that's it. | 23:52 |
| dragon | They've recorded it any way. | 23:53 |
| mrand | bah. It shouldn't be this hard to get tickets opened from users that want to open them! | 23:53 |
| mrand | Thanks for the thought though, and your efforts. | 23:53 |
| dragon | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gfxboot/+bug/47703/comments/4 | 23:55 |
| dragon | Hope that helps improve Ubuntu. | 23:56 |
| mrand | Every little bit helps. | 23:56 |
| dragon | I forgot to mention karmic, but that should be apparent from the date of my comment. | 23:59 |
| dragon | Would it help if I hit "Nominate for release" or something? | 23:59 |
