| yofel | oh, I remember something like that from the karmic testing days | 00:14 |
| kermiac | I've seen bugs mentioning this type of thing before but can't find one atm | 00:14 |
| yofel | iirc update-grub doesn't work with modified menu.lst files | 00:14 |
| yofel | remove menu.lst, run update-grub and it should work | 00:15 |
| kermiac | ok, ty yofel. I'll suggest that :) | 00:15 |
| crimsun | it's in the release notes for Karmic | 00:17 |
| yofel | bug 470265 maybe | 00:18 |
| crimsun | it is not a checkbox bug; it is not a sound bug. | 00:18 |

| ddecator | so out of curiosity, i haven't been able to find this on the wiki, how does it work that you gain the ability to triage the importance of bugs and set more statuses? does someone give your account a certain status? | 01:20 |
| yofel | ddecator: only bug control can do that | 01:20 |
| yofel | ddecator: after being in the bugsquad for a while you can apply for bug control | 01:20 |
| yofel | lemme get the wiki page | 01:20 |
| yofel | actually it's linked from the LP team page: https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bugcontrol | 01:21 |
| ddecator | yah, i just found it, thanks yofel , i was confused about that | 01:21 |
| ddecator | ah, perfect, that's what i want to get into =) | 01:23 |
| hggdh | yofel: done | 01:46 |
| yofel | hggdh: thx :) | 01:47 |
| hggdh | heh. Hopefully I will not need to do that in a few ;-) | 01:47 |
| ddecator | i'm guessing yofel is working on getting in bug control as well? | 01:50 |
| yofel | hggdh: me too :P | 01:50 |
| hggdh | ddecator: indeed. He has the votes for, just waiting on the bugmeister to act on it | 01:51 |
| ddecator | very cool yofel , hopefully i'll be able to follow relatively quickly =) | 01:51 |
| yofel | ddecator: just keep up the good work and I don't see why not ;) | 01:52 |
| ddecator | yofel, thanks, i got one full upstream triage under my belt so hopefully it won't be too hard to meet the rest of the requirements =) | 01:53 |
| ddecator | i'm looking at bug 512081 which is for Firefox 3.5.7, and i've found a bug upstream that matches it, but is 3.6 considered an official release for Ubuntu since it isn't in the official repository? i'm not sure whether to link the bugs or ask him to upgrade to 3.6 and see if it fixes the problem | 02:19 |

| nigel_nb | micahg, not in PPA yet? | 02:22 |
| ddecator | https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=366830 the bug itself is old but someone just commented on it with more information a few days ago | 02:22 |

| micahg | nigel_nb: in PPA, not in Lucid | 02:22 |
| nigel_nb | Oh, | 02:23 |
| micahg | ddecator: first thing to do is to ask to try in a new profile | 02:23 |
| ddecator | micahg, whats the easiest way to try a new FF profile? | 02:24 |
| micahg | ddecator: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/362314/ | 02:25 |
| ddecator | perfect, thanks micahg | 02:25 |
| micahg | ddecator: not sure what to do with the upstream though | 02:30 |
| micahg | I guess you can link it, but I don't want to confirm upstream's bug yet | 02:30 |
| micahg | so just enter in LP right now | 02:30 |
| ddecator | right, that was my other thing was that the upstream was unconfirmed as well. i'll work with the person on ubuntu for now and just keep my eye on the upstream bug for changes. | 02:31 |
| micahg | ddecator: upstream probably won't change | 02:31 |
| micahg | ddecator: ping me if you need something in mozilla upstream tracker | 02:32 |
| micahg | let's see if the new profile helps | 02:32 |
| ddecator | good point micahg , i've submitted bugs to mozilla in the past and i don't know if anything ever got addressed haha, and i'll keep that in mind, i appreciate it | 02:32 |
| micahg | ddecator: they're like us, too many bugs, not enough people | 02:32 |
| micahg | ddecator: so if you can find duplicates when searching, let me know | 02:32 |
| ddecator | micahg, sure thing | 02:33 |
| nigel_nb | bug 469693, seems to be something to do with ubuntu tweak. Shall I close the bug as invalid? | 02:33 |

| ddecator | micahg, very true, and i have more experience with extension conflicts so hopefully if that's the problem i'll be able to help the person | 02:35 |
| ddecator | nigel_nb, it seems more of a bug in ubuntu tweak to me, something isn't changing the features of the system right...maybe first request more information such as the ubuntu tweak version, their system info, and all of the problems they're experiencing? | 02:39 |
| nigel_nb | yea, which means its supposed to be set to closed, I was just hoping for someone to suggest it was in packages, since no one did, its an invalid ubuntu bug | 02:40 |
| ddecator | nigel_nb, ah, i didn't realize ubuntu-tweak wasn't in the packages | 02:42 |
| nigel_nb | :) | 02:43 |
| ddecator | nigel_nb, i forget what i install from .deb and from PPAs sometimes haha. yah, i guess there isn't anything we're going to be able to do...i don't even see a bug submitter on ubuntu tweak's website | 02:45 |
| nigel_nb | exactly! | 02:46 |
| ddecator | that's scary...and i don't think removing ubuntu tweak resets anything... | 02:47 |
| nigel_nb | it will retain the corrupted configs, a reinstall is the only way out I see | 02:47 |
| ddecator | if the person isn't able to reset the config using ubuntu tweak, then yah, i don't know if there is much else you can do, unless someone with more experience in this kind of area knows of a way to reset the default settings | 02:48 |

| persia | The first step would be to find another user with the affected hardware, and have them replicate the issue, and mark the bug "Confirmed". | 05:45 |

| micahg | qense: why were the firefox packages considered small? | 15:59 |
| qense | ah, that was my bad | 16:00 |
| qense | I didn't do that consiouscly | 16:00 |
| qense | I just kept them in the list because you're a person and not a team | 16:00 |
| qense | iirc | 16:00 |
| * micahg needs to check if Mozilla Team should be on the list with KernelTeam | 16:00 | |
| micahg | qense: I'm the only bug control member committed, but there is a team of devs behind FF | 16:01 |
| micahg | and the rest of hte mozilla packages | 16:01 |
| qense | micahg: I do have a seperate listening of teams that triage their own bugs. | 16:02 |
| qense | Where do you think FF should be? | 16:02 |
| * micahg needs to talk to asac about it | 16:02 | |
| micahg | qense: I was just wondering your reasoning, not assigning blame or anything | 16:03 |
| qense | micahg: the problem is that I didn't reason when placing FF there ;) | 16:03 |
| micahg | heh | 16:03 |
| qense | Is there actually a team working on FF? | 16:04 |
| micahg | mozilla team maintains all the mozilla apps and extensions in Ubuntu | 16:04 |
| qense | including bugs? | 16:05 |
| micahg | qense: that's what I have to check, in theory I think yes, but idk | 16:05 |
| micahg | qense: I'll check and update the page | 16:06 |
| qense | micahg: We could add the MozillaTeam to the list of teams that do their own bidding and remove your entries. | 16:06 |
| micahg | qense: yeah, I have to check if that's a good idea | 16:06 |
| qense | But that would remove the documentation of you being the most experienced person for FF whithin the Bug COntrol | 16:06 |
| micahg | otherwise, I might go the adoption team route and try to find some more people to help | 16:06 |
| qense | you could do that as well | 16:07 |
| qense | and integrate that adoptionteam in the mozillateam as well | 16:07 |
| micahg | well, we already have a mozilla squad that's kinda unused | 16:07 |
| micahg | that seems more targeted to devs though | 16:08 |
| * micahg really needs to discuss these issues with the team | 16:08 | |

| hggdh | charlie-tca: of course not! Please go ahead, that's the whole idea on providing the packages. | 16:38 |
