mistrynitesh | ddecator: yes, it seems there would be duplicates, but can't reproduce as I don't have a laptop | 08:51 |
ddecator | mistrynitesh: well then you can look for dupes at least. it can't be set to triaged until there is enough detailed information for the developers to be able to know what needs to be fixed. generally, apport information really helps that, but it's a lot of info to look through, so if we can find a way to narrow down the possibilities it can help them a lot =) | 08:52 |

Pici | thebishop: er, that was already fixed. | 15:02 |
thebishop | Pici, yeah? do I need to manually reinstall glx? | 15:02 |
Pici | thebishop: if you've been updating you should already have the update. | 15:03 |
thebishop | Pici, that's what i'd expect, but it's not what happened for me | 15:03 |
yofel | thebishop: what does 'glxinfo | grep GLX\ version' give you? | 15:04 |
thebishop | yofel, The program 'glxinfo' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing: | 15:05 |
thebishop | sudo apt-get install mesa-utils | 15:05 |
yofel | then install it and check if you have glx 1.2 or 1.4, you're only affected by the GEM leak if you have 1.4 | 15:06 |
thebishop | yofel, ok | 15:07 |
simar | is not today the bugday | 15:53 |
vish | thebishop: what do you get with ~$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/gem_objects | 15:59 |

vish | " 75587584 object bytes " is OK | 16:00 |
vish | heh better than mine even ;p | 16:01 |
thebishop | vish, yeah, i didn't think I was affected by the leak per se, but i am affected by not having GLX | 16:01 |
vish | there is another leak in the kernel though! well atleast for me .. if i use .33 no problems for me | 16:02 |
vish | similar happened during karmic as well . :s the karmic kernel was a problem and only the lucid one was good for me.. [had nautilus problems due to kernel] | 16:03 |

yofel | hm, is there a rough estimate on when bugs expiration will be turned on by the way? I follow the bug report, but nobody mentions anything else than 'probably soon' | 20:20 |
JFo | yofel, Expiration already works on edge. or do you mean automatic expiration? | 20:37 |
yofel | automatic expiration | 20:37 |
JFo | ah, not sure about that | 20:37 |
persia | yofel: I think "never". It was on before, and lots of folks (including me) protested loudly. | 20:38 |
JFo | heh | 20:38 |
persia | yofel: Some other projects use it though. | 20:38 |
JFo | I use expiration on kernel bugs | 20:39 |
JFo | but not automatically | 20:39 |
yofel | persia: they do seem to want to turn it on again if you trust bug 333521 | 20:44 |
ubot4 | Launchpad bug 333521 in malone "Enable bugs expiration for Ubuntu (affects: 1) (heat: 22)" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/333521 | 20:44 |
persia | Looks like I have to complain again. | 20:44 |
persia | Last time it closed >100 of my bugs that were still replicable and valid in the stable release just because nobody looked at them except to do the automated "please try again", which I ignored because they were pointlessly obvious things like spelling errors or misconfigurations which were completely unchanged. | 20:45 |
persia | It's also philosophically a bad idea because instead of listing the bugs as known open bugs that nobody has gotten around to yet, it falsely implies that they are either fixed or not bugs. This annoys users. | 20:46 |
deryck | persia, hi. that's the point of the "expired" status being added. to make these bugs easier to find now, not treat them as invalid. | 20:47 |
persia | Beyond just being annoying, it actively reinforces the concept of separation between users and those who help make the distribution happen: rather than folks asking "Nobody is looking at my bug: how can I help get it fixed" folks get told "Your bug is bad" and select a different software solution. | 20:48 |
persia | deryck: That doesn't help the user experience in any way. | 20:48 |
deryck | persia, I think it helps some. To what degree it helps could be debatable, sure. | 20:49 |
persia | deryck: It helps the triagers experience, but triagers tend to be fairly comfortable working around things: it's the new user to whom we have to present the idea that 1) we care, and 2) we're budy and would appreciate their help. | 20:49 |
persia | deryck: Tell me a story about an end user who is happy with a bug being marked expired. | 20:50 |
persia | I may just not be imaginative enough. | 20:50 |
deryck | persia, I'm not saying anyone will dance in the street saying "yay, my bug expired." | 20:51 |
deryck | but it can be done in a way that is informative and not offensive, IMO. | 20:51 |
persia | I don't need dancing in the streets :) I just have not been able to come up with any way in which it improves the experience for end-users, and have a number in which it makes it less pleasing. | 20:52 |
persia | Any example of how an end-user's total experience is improved by bug expiry would reduce my vociferousness. | 20:52 |
persia | Even a small improvement. | 20:53 |
deryck | persia, the user sees the email saying the bug expired, thinks "oh, I meant to add a comment explaining FOO and never did," and updates the bug and moves it forward. | 20:54 |
persia | Does it move it forward? Do we have any means of capturing this data? | 20:54 |
persia | Do we have a way that triagers can examine recently unexpired bugs to avoid them timing out again? | 20:55 |
deryck | persia, hypothetically moves it forward, i.e. it's no longer expired and someone is able to look at it again with new info. | 20:55 |
persia | Most of the expirable bugs I've encountered suffered from lack of triager time, not lack of reporter feedback. | 20:56 |
deryck | persia, we have another bug about toggling to confirmed automatically when the reporter responds. this will help the case you cite here, I think. it could be made to work with expired status, too. | 20:58 |
deryck | toggle from Incomplete-->Confirmed is the current plan, which is why I mean it could be made to work with Expired, too. | 20:58 |
persia | Would it be possible to roll that out at the same time as reenbling expiry? Consider the difficulties inherent in attempting to roll out a third time if it's turned off again due to complaints. | 20:58 |
deryck | persia, I think we could, yes. The Expired status is rolling out with next week's LP release, but automatic expiring is not happening until we have time to communicate it well. | 21:01 |
persia | Oh, good. That sounds like something that could work. | 21:02 |
persia | Thinking about it, I wonder if they shouldn't move back to New: just because a reporter responded doesn't mean that it's confirmed not to be a local issue (e.g. PPA software). | 21:02 |
deryck | I'm looking for the bug now to update with that suggestion. | 21:03 |
deryck | as for Confirmed vs. New that seemed to me to be the common convention, but if not, I'm not wedded to Confirmed. | 21:03 |
persia | Do you happen to know that bug number? I'd like to comment there on the Confirmed/New bit, but I'm not firmly attached to any specific answer. | 21:04 |
deryck | persia, looking for it now. At a coffee shop, so terribly slow connection. | 21:06 |
deryck | an lp speed doesn't help that | 21:06 |
persia | deryck: No worries. If you bump into it next week, and tell me then, it's just as good :) | 21:06 |
persia | Asking LP to search for it now would be painful if you were sitting in the data centre. | 21:07 |
