| autra | hi everyone | 10:22 |
| mansa | i had a doubt as to how to start contributing to ubuntu | 12:44 |
| mansa | that is how do i start fixing bugs | 12:44 |
| mansa | How do i start with the bug fixing | 12:46 |
| mansa | were do i see the bugs available to fix | 12:46 |
| pedro_ | mansa, for bug fixing is better to ask on #ubuntu-motu | 12:46 |
| pedro_ | hello fabio_ | 12:47 |
| mansa | but were do i see the list of bugs. | 12:47 |
| fabio_ | hi pedro_ | 12:48 |
| pedro_ | mansa, bugs.launchpad.net | 12:48 |
| pedro_ | mansa, there's some info on http://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs too | 12:48 |
| autra | got a question... | 13:39 |
| autra | for bug #24330, do you think it should be put back to "incomplete", as it has been nearly 5 months without any activity? | 13:40 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 24330 in gentoo "CIFS mount blocks suspend/hibernate" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/24330 | 13:40 |
| ali1234 | so, i have a question about bug 485923, of which i'm the reporter | 13:42 |
| ubot4 | Launchpad bug 485923 in gnome-settings-daemon "Probable memory leak in gnome-settings-daemon" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/485923 | 13:42 |
| ali1234 | i've been tracking down the bug and i think i've found the cause of at least part of it | 13:43 |
| ali1234 | it appears to be the result of multiple bugs interacting | 13:43 |
| ali1234 | so, i'm wondering, should i report all the individual bugs, or just add what i found to this bug report, add in all the other packages that are involved, and let them sort it out? | 13:44 |
| autra | well, it is no harm to add comments to this bug | 13:45 |
| ali1234 | yeah, see, i no longer think the bug is actually in gnome-settings-daemon or gnome-volume-control-applet | 13:46 |
| ali1234 | i think it is actually two unrelated pulse audio bugs | 13:46 |
| ali1234 | and possible a wine bug | 13:46 |
| autra | ok lol | 13:46 |
| autra | just explain everything in the bug, and we'll see what Chris will do ;-) | 13:46 |
| ali1234 | it's actually kind of hard to tell who is at fault for not freeing some random piece of memory | 13:46 |
| ali1234 | but it's only a problem because another piece of code is allocating a lot of audio sinks unnecessarily | 13:47 |
| ali1234 | also this might only explain the leak in gvca and be totally unrelated to gsd | 13:48 |
| ali1234 | meh, i will just do the loooong explanation and add all involved packages | 13:48 |
| ali1234 | can i change the bug title? | 13:49 |
| ali1234 | nvm, i can :) | 13:49 |
| ali1234 | hmm i just remembered something: mplayer prints a message about "broken pulseaudio pausing" and this bug happens when i pause spotify... | 14:03 |
| autra | @ali1234: saw it. This seems quite serious. Does every application running with wine do that ? | 14:36 |
| ali1234 | autra: i only use 1 app with wine, so i don't know for sure | 14:37 |
| ali1234 | i use spotify (which is a music streaming app if you dont know it) | 14:37 |
| autra | already heard about it | 14:37 |
| ali1234 | when i use wine it happens while spotify is playing | 14:37 |
| ali1234 | when i use wine-1.2 it happens only while spotify is paused | 14:37 |
| autra | how can i check on my own system ? I'm using wine for several applications... | 14:38 |
| ali1234 | open gvca | 14:38 |
| ali1234 | go to the applications tab | 14:38 |
| ali1234 | you should see ALSA plug-in [wine preloader] | 14:39 |
| ali1234 | if it's flickering like crazy, it's happening to you | 14:39 |
| ali1234 | i'm using wine-1.2 because wine + pulseaudio is terrible | 14:40 |
| ali1234 | with standard wine, sound cuts out after a few seconds in any wine app | 14:40 |
| ali1234 | at least judging by the complaints i read on various forums :) | 14:41 |
| autra | well, i'm not using wine 1.2, and it happens that sound cut.... But usually, it works fine | 14:41 |
| autra | I'll check it when I will be at home | 14:42 |
| ali1234 | with wine-1.2 it appears to work fine | 14:42 |
| ali1234 | except that while spotify is paused it's causing gvca to leak memory at a silly rate | 14:43 |
| ali1234 | thing is, this is two unrelated and individually not very serious bugs, which when combined, really screw you over | 14:45 |
| ali1234 | anyway, i'm just adapting pacat to demonstrate the gnome bug. then i'll look at wine. it's probably a spotify bug tbh. that program is VERY buggy | 14:49 |
| ali1234 | video demonstrating what happens: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xx5p6H8M2CI | 14:56 |
| autra | ! | 14:57 |
| autra | At least, I would be able to see if it's happen with spotify | 14:58 |
| autra | without sorry | 14:58 |
| ali1234 | with regular wine (1.0?) the reverse happens: it flickers only while playing (not paused) | 14:59 |
| ali1234 | at least it does for about 30 seconds until it cuts out completely | 15:00 |

| bddebian | Boo | 15:13 |
| pedro_ | buu!! | 15:14 |
| ali1234 | where do i get those dbgsym packages? i have all repos enabled but i can't see them... | 15:15 |
| ali1234 | ah they have their own repo... | 15:18 |
| hggdh | ali1234: also keep in mind that the main repos also carry a lot of .dbg | 15:44 |
| ali1234 | not for the packages i needed | 15:44 |
| hggdh | usually you will need much more than just the dbg/dgbsym for the package(s) you want. An easy way of getting all needed is to 'sudo apport-retrace' on a crash report | 15:48 |
| ali1234 | i don't have a crash report, it's a memory leak | 15:53 |

| pedro_ | hi bdmurray | 18:06 |
| bdmurray | that packages w/o bug subscribers report is plain text okay or do you want html output? | 18:07 |
| pedro_ | bdmurray, plain text works fine for me :-) | 18:07 |
| pedro_ | we just want to know the package name | 18:08 |
| pedro_ | no need to bother with html | 18:08 |
| bdmurray | pedro_: mail sent with results from last week then | 18:09 |

| Laibsch | Hi | 21:32 |
| malev | Hi! any idea of what can I do with this bug? https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/497221 | 21:53 |
| ubot4` | Launchpad bug 497221 in linux "No sound in HP Pavilion dv6z laptop with ubuntu 9.10" [Undecided,Incomplete] | 21:53 |
| malev | I've asked in the ubuntu channel if someone has that laptop, but... no luke | 21:53 |
| malev | I'm sorry, there was no lucky. | 21:54 |
| micahg | malev: have you seen this: | 21:54 |
| micahg | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems | 21:54 |
| malev | yes I do | 21:54 |
| malev | And I recommed it to the R | 21:54 |
| malev | sorry again, yes I did | 21:55 |
| BUGabundo | boas o/ | 21:56 |
| micahg | bdmurray: 5-a-day daily stats seem to be broke | 21:58 |
| malev | micahg, maybe is not a bug... and a problem of configuration.... | 22:00 |
| micahg | malev: sorry, I don't know much about sound | 22:00 |
| malev | micahg, don't worry! | 22:00 |
| malev | micahg, hey, have you seen a mail from qense asking for people to adopt a Nautilus for the bug triage. Do you think that is a better way to start with this, you know, to specialize in one package. | 22:02 |
| micahg | malev: it depends what you want to do, I like to speciailize, it doesn't work for everyone | 22:02 |
| malev | micahg, mmm I think I'm gonna go for it. is the adpot-a-package project still working? I've only found out about it because of this guy qense and his mail | 22:04 |
| micahg | malev: it's an ongoing thing | 22:04 |
| malev | micahg, excelent! thanks | 22:05 |
| malev | micahg, I've seen that you submit to firefox, great! -> to submit in a package the only thing I have to do is to edit the wiki? | 22:05 |
| malev | hggdh, Hi, is recommended to create a profile page at the ubuntu's wiki. you know, like: wiki.ubuntu.com/Hggdh and it case that it is... how can I do to make one? | 22:38 |
| === malev is now known as malev_ | ||
| hggdh | malev_: you should have an empty page under your Wiki Id. Just copy somebody's page in, and edit | 23:57 |
| malev_ | hggdh, ohh! thanks!!! | 23:57 |
| hggdh | malev_: welcome :-) | 23:58 |
