malevHi, what to do when a las reporter from a bug was 6 month ago?00:00
persiamalev: Try to replicate it.00:04
malevpersia, oks! I'm playing with the hugday :D00:05
persiamalev: Basically, a bug is valid until either proven solved or expected solved because it affects obsolete software and is hard to test.00:05
persiaFor something obvious to test like Fn+F5 on some specific hardware, it's safe to leave valid until you get someone to show it working with that hardware (or nobody has the hardware)00:06
malevexcelent! yes I've found a lot of bugs from obsolete soft :D00:06
malevoks, I'm gonna leave it as valid.00:07
persiamalev: Something I used to do when finding bugs like that was swing by #ubuntu and ask if anyone had the hardware.00:07
persiaMore people there, so a better chance of getting someone who can check if it's still valid.00:07
malevpersia, nice idea00:07
malevQuestion: For example https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/366478  they use 9.04 how can i do to check if the bug exists? I don't use this hard anymore. But there are a lot of people claiming that the had the problem too.00:17
ubot4Launchpad bug 366478 in ubuntu "Alcor Micro Corp. Multimedia Card Reader don't work in Ubuntu 9.04/9.10 (058f:6362 Device offlined) " [Undecided,Confirmed]00:17
malevwhat can I do?00:17
mrandmalev: typically if it is something that I can't reproduce, I will (1) try to see if there are duplicate bugs already filed and/or do a quick google search with "9.10 OR karmic" attached to it to see if there are any more recent reports of it not working (or it being fixed).   (2)  if none of those turn up anything, add a comment to the bug requesting if they can reproduce the issue on 9.10 and then mark it incomplete [incomplete becaus00:20
malevmrand, excelent! I'm going for it00:21
liquidhi, I was trying to test out a branch for gnome-shell, and was getting stuck on some of libgail-dev 's dependencys03:37

zzsedenyiIf yes, please help me... I've a small error message only after I installed wubi.  I have got this message after wubi 9.10 reboots my computer: cannot find grldr in all devices14:36
zzsedenyii have read all relevant messages on the support forum, but no solution found...14:40
hggdhzzsedenyi: have you opened a bug on it?14:42
zzsedenyino, coz i found lot of messages about this error on ubuntuforum.org without any classifiable  message...14:45
hggdhzzsedenyi: well, then, you might start by giving us details -- like, say, the URL for the forum post (but I still think a bug will be necessary)14:46

awardleI'm not sure if bug 4498291 is a duplicate of bug 478653. They have similar error messages, however one says ERROR - READY_WITH_NETWORK_WITH_METAQ while the other says ERROR - READY_WITH_NETWORK23:11

Jordan_UHow can I help move things foreward with https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/497326 ? Because of this bug grub-reboot in karmic is completely broken ( will never work properly in any configuration ) and dangerous ( has already caused at least one person to lose access to a remote server ).23:40
ubot4Launchpad bug 497326 in grub2 "grub-reboot does not restore previous default after reboot" [Undecided,New]23:40
mrandJordan_U: Thank you very much for pushing a patch upstream.  You might include the above mentioned side effects of the bug in the description... for those unfamiliar with parts of grub (including myself), it might help them to understand.23:57
Jordan_Umrand: I explained the problem more @ http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2009-12/msg00276.html , should I just link to that ?23:59
