| xelister | hi, well ubuntu overall does not work well with GFX cards | 13:18 |
| xelister | radeons - crashes, freezes often | 13:18 |
| xelister | nvidia - the same | 13:18 |
| xelister | is there any use in reporting such bugs... is anyone doing any real work? | 13:18 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| yofel | xelister: what cards and what release? I have a few nvidia cards and they work fine with the nvidia drivers from the repository, sure it's not a X / Application issue? | 13:35 |
| xelister | yofel: all | 13:41 |
| xelister | yofel: all that I ever seen, so summ it up. Now Im testing on 10.04 on some radeon and nvidia and intell and some 2 other cards | 13:41 |
| xelister | on livecd's (9.10, non-propertiary) the refresh rate and/or resolution is bad usually | 13:42 |
| xelister | on normal setup (10.04, propertiary drivers) they like to hang sooner or later, especially: radeon - on switching VTs (often) ; and nvidia - rarerly - when switching VTs and memory pressure is huge | 13:42 |
| xelister | so is there some team dedicated to make ubutnu finally support GFX card with a good quality by default, that will really investiagate such reports or is it waste of time to report | 13:43 |
| yofel | hm, 9.10 should still use NV I think, nouveau is an improvement at least (10.04 upwards) | 13:44 |
| xelister | I have reproducable cases of this radeon hanging. If someone will really investigate with me (some devel), then I could help with testing | 13:44 |
| xelister | same goes to nvidia that hangs on memory pressure | 13:44 |
| yofel | maybe ask in #ubuntu-x or for nvidia search on http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?f=14 first | 13:45 |
| yofel | also you could try the nvidia 256 drivers from the x-updates ppa on lucid | 13:46 |
| xelister | I dont want to complain too much | 13:46 |
| xelister | but for years, always, you can find so much problems with even GFX support. its not so motivating when for years same problems go on | 13:47 |

| abhi_nav | anyone free to talk? any student? | 18:57 |
| abhi_nav | I am a student. Planning to contribut to start as triager. so I want to know if how much time I need to give per day? | 19:01 |
| abhi_nav | !ping | 19:02 |
| ubot2 | pong | 19:02 |
| arand | abhi_nav: As much as you want to give, really, all depending on how much you want to get involved. | 19:02 |
| abhi_nav | arand, initially less. | 19:02 |
| abhi_nav | arand, half hour ok? for traiage/ | 19:03 |
| abhi_nav | ? | 19:03 |
| hggdh | abhi_nav: half-hour is good. | 19:05 |
| hggdh | more is better ;-) | 19:05 |
| arand | I don't know if time is a good measure for it really, number of bugs.. maybe, although they vary a lot in complexity of triaging... | 19:05 |
| abhi_nav_ | arand, i was disconnected. can you tell me half hour ok ? | 19:06 |
| abhi_nav_ | arand, ok | 19:06 |
| arand | abhi_nav_: 20:05 < hggdh> abhi_nav: half-hour is good. | 19:06 |

| micromix | hey guys i an wondering how would we find out who fixes bugs for packages, do they have adopt a package like we do? | 21:02 |
| hggdh | micromix: the fix may come from upstream, not from us; also *anyone* can propose a patch | 21:25 |
| hggdh | micromix: and it is not necessary to adopt a package to work on fixes | 21:26 |
| hggdh | although it helps to concentrate on a subset -- you have to learn the code, and understand it | 21:26 |
| micromix | hggdh: i was just curious to know what happens when we finish triage a bug | 21:27 |
| hggdh | ah | 21:27 |
| micromix | if it eventually reaches a developer | 21:27 |
| micromix | or maybe we need to try to fix bugs ourselves | 21:27 |
| hggdh | yes, eventually it reaches one. May take some time, since we are all quite busy | 21:27 |
| hggdh | and, as I said above, *anyone* can work on a fix. We prefer fixes that the package developers approve | 21:28 |
| hggdh | so -- for example -- if I write a fix for er, Evolution, then I should also propose it upstream | 21:29 |
| micromix | thats good, i like evolution :D | 21:29 |
| hggdh | heh | 21:30 |
| hggdh | I love/hate it | 21:30 |
| hggdh | jcastro: ping? | 21:30 |
| micromix | do we have a any sort of policy with regards to the developers though | 21:31 |
| micromix | lets say i adopted a package | 21:32 |
| hggdh | ok? | 21:32 |
| micromix | checkgmail *cough | 21:32 |
| micromix | and i wanted to make sure i was giving the proper degugging info | 21:32 |
| micromix | just go in #motu and ask? | 21:32 |
| micromix | or lets say to let the developer to know that i am subscribed to those bugs in a package | 21:33 |
| hggdh | depends | 21:33 |
| hggdh | who is the developer for checkgmail? | 21:33 |
| micromix | erm | 21:34 |
| micromix | ok a next question then | 21:34 |
| hggdh | you probably can find it on the source package, or on LP | 21:34 |
| micromix | how would i find that out | 21:34 |
| hggdh | in the package source, look at the AUTHORS file (there should be one) | 21:34 |
| hggdh | also, perhaps it has a ./debian/watch, which will tell us where the upstream source comes from | 21:35 |
| hggdh | then it is a question of 'google is your friend' | 21:36 |
| hggdh | also, we sync/merge a lot from Debian | 21:36 |
| micromix | it did not have a authors file.. | 21:37 |
| micromix | but still good idea | 21:37 |
| hggdh | but 'google is your friend' works: the very first hit for 'checkgmail' is http://checkgmail.sourceforge.net/ | 21:37 |
| hggdh | so this is the upstream for it | 21:38 |
| micahg | micromix: packages.ubuntu.com has an upstream link for packages as well | 21:38 |
| hggdh | good call, micahg :-) | 21:39 |
| micahg | s/upstream/Homepage/ | 21:39 |
| jcastro | hggdh: pong | 21:39 |
| hggdh | jcastro: I have to develop a branding for the Ubuntu server (triage, testing, QA-ing, etc), and... guess what name came to my humble mind (that might give me some pointers)? | 21:41 |
| micromix | well thanks guys | 21:46 |
| jcastro | hggdh: jono! | 21:47 |
| jcastro | hggdh: :D | 21:47 |
| jcastro | hggdh: sure, can you hit me over mail though? kind of overwhelmed with font stuff until EOD | 21:48 |
| hggdh | jcastro: will do, thank you | 21:48 |
