rusivimicahg: my wireless is working fine post install06:02
rusivimicahg: it did not during, and it offered me to seemlessly download updates after installing but when it asked me to choose a network no networks were displayed06:02
rusivimicahg: and my wifi switch was in the on status and the light was on06:03
micahgrusivi: right, but after install it worked w/out installing anything?06:03

persiaI've wishlisted my own bug #640367, and wondered if someone could confirm it for me.11:47

=== ivoks-afk is now known as ivoks
rusivipersia: I'll confirm that11:57
rusivipersia: done11:57
rusiviWhat do we do about bug 128165 being spammed by poster Iperbit?11:59
ubot2Launchpad bug 128165 in netcfg (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) "Installation of Network put a wrong DNS, crashing the Installation (dups: 1) (heat: 2)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/12816511:59
vishrusivi: what was the basis for the confirmed ? :)11:59
persiarusivi, Thanks :)12:01
rusivivish: b/c I confirmed what persia was talking about. Would you like me to document in the comments?12:01
* persia doesn't see the point of documenting confirmation in comments when it's obvious12:01
rusiviI will if you like no big deal12:01
vishrusivi: ah ok.. you did check the man pages..12:01
rusivivish: yes12:02
rusivivish: I ACTUALLY confirmed it, not just marked it confirmed without checking :D12:02
rusivihehe12:02
vishrusivi: nah.. there have been a few new triagers who dont check bugs in their install , just just making sure ;)12:02
rusivivish: no I'm glad to be held accountable!12:02
rusivivish: accountability = integrity12:03
persiaIndeed12:03
persiarusivi, re: 128165 : the most we can do is report it in #launchpad12:04
persiaThe usual thing is that it ends up being a launchpad question, and someone tries to clean up.12:04
vishrusivi: neat! there have been a few who are too eager just confirming bugs while not even using ubuntu.. sometimes people are too helpful ;)12:04
persiavery abusive users sometimes end up with their accounts disabled temporarily (with the time depending on their willingness to contact the admins)12:04
vishrusivi: translation == that wasnt to not-pick on you.. ;)12:06
vishnit-pick*12:06
rusivivish: please pick on me, I'm fine with it!12:06
rusivipersia: yeah I got maimed, flamed, and blamed b/c I asked an update request to a bug that was 2 years since last comment. Granted it was triaged and medium... I stopped that but I should not be ridiculed for an innocuous inquiry.12:07
persiaIt is critically important to be precise, and ensure we discuss the details: that said, we always take care to avoid giving each other the impression that the discussion is personal.12:07
persiarusivi, Context issue: I was talking about lperbit, not you12:08
rusivipersia: I mentioned in bug about the CoC so far as I'm concerned it's squashed.12:08
persiadecent start: if it continues, escalate as indicated above.12:09
persiaIf it stops, all is good.12:09
vishlooks like lperbit has been deactivated12:09
rusivivish: ty for checking12:10
rusivivish: is that something I could have checked for myself?12:10
vishrusivi: you can check too , just click on the icon for the user and you are taken to their account12:10
vishrusivi: also the icon will be grey is account is deactivated12:11
vishs/is/if/12:11
rusivivish: k ty12:13
rusiviAnyone have suggestion on when I was downloading Maverick Ubuntu & Kubuntu the progress mid download stops but no indication download failed is a bug in firefox client or server side?12:16
rusiviQuick followup, I can get it to resume just by pressing pause then resume.12:17
rusivitrivial but buggable?12:17
persiaTo troubleshoot that, maybe try using wireshark, or comparing with other clients?  That's not near enough description to even guess at the cause (or responsible package)12:18
bilalakhtarpersia: Could you please add me to -sponsors?12:22
persiabilalakhtar, Sure.12:22
persiabilalakhtar, Seems I can't, for some reason.12:27
bilalakhtarpersia: why?12:27
persiaI no longer seem to be a member.12:27
bilalakhtar???12:27
bilalakhtaroops!12:28
bilalakhtarno problem12:28
persiaThat's what I thought :)12:28
bilalakhtarpersia: its not your fault :) I understand12:28
* bilalakhtar can't find Emmet Hikory in the list12:28
persianeither can I, hence the confusion12:29
vishooh! just noticed that persia made a passing comment and it was meant for me! :D  persia i just like to add the info i get and its saves me not being asked "what is the message do you get?" ;)13:14
=== ivoks is now known as ivoks-afk
persiavish, I can understand that viewpoint, which is why I don't argue against it more.  I find the bugmail containing that annoying, except when the confirmation was with an interestingly different system (and that interesting difference is noted in the comment)13:15
persiaEasy enough to ignore the comment in the bug log otherwise13:15
vishpersia: actually i dint notice rusivi's confirm until i confirmed it :)13:15
vishelse wouldnt have commented..13:16
vishpersia: we really should implement the mid air clash from bugzilla ;)13:17
persiaThere's reasons why bugs aren't kept live.13:17
persiaPersonally, I prefer them not to be live.13:17
persiaIt never hurts to have two people try to set "Confirmed"13:17
persiaBut it's a vast waste of bandwidth and CPU power to keep the bugs I have open in my browser active when I'm not looking at them13:18
vishpersia: well , it did annoy someone though ;)13:18
persiaHow?13:19
vishpersia: oh , i thought you were annoyed.. :)13:19
vishif not \o/13:19
persiaNo.  I'm good at ignoring mail :)13:19
persiaMind you, I'd like to be less good at it, because I know there's signal in the noise, but that's a different issue.13:20
* vish note to self dont confirm persia's bugs ;p13:20
persiaDon't worry about it.13:20
persiaNot worth a note.13:20
vish:)13:20
persiaAnyway, "my" bugs tend to be filed by other folks, and just of interest to me, so hard to identify, moreso as I'm often not subscribed (to cut down on bugmail)13:21
vishbug watch exception should have been made for fixed bugs :(13:29
vishevery bug old and new , fixed or not , is getting a priority spamm..13:29
rusiviCan someone please look at bug 98388, I looked at all the different Overviews and none of them explain what Zope is nor offer the opportunity to ask a question against it...13:32

rusivihggdh: regarding that bug, it seemed very appropriate to ask the reporter to report to Mandriva w/ his Mandriva bug, especially since the issue seemed resolved16:05
rusivihggdh: seemed resolved = bug already marked fixed in Ubuntu before I looked at it16:05
rusivihggdh: still no change on bug status for that bug at least?16:06
pedro_rusivi, doesn't make sense to triage bugs that are from Mandriva in LP16:07

yofelelopio: which release are you running?18:40
elopioyofel: maveric beta.18:40
yofelany crash indication in dmesg?18:40

yofelok, that should trigger apport, and you really have nothing in /var/crash/ ?18:42
elopiolet me see...18:42
elopioI have a _usr_bin_evolution.1000.crash, from about 11 hours ago.18:44
yofelthat should probably be the crash, as apport ignores repeated crashes IIRC18:44
elopioum, got it.18:45
yofelnot sure why it didn't notify about the crash18:45
elopioso if I remove that file, next crash should trigger apport.18:45

intradercharlie-tca: no activity in bug report except for mine. I feel extremely frustrated with 10.04 - barely usable - mostly now using Windows XP20:07
charlie-tcaintrader: There is no point adding tasks for other distributions unless you have a bug number from their bugzillas. We are not going to fix them20:07
intradercharlie-tca, all those distributions have the same problem on this computer. so something in common is wrong20:08
charlie-tcaSome things go that way. If no one else is having that issue, they don't comment on it.20:08
charlie-tcaThe fact that they all have the same issue for you does not mean we want them added to the report as separate projects. Just commenting that you tried them all and it is the same is enough20:09
charlie-tcaThe added project is used to track a bug in their systems, not to say "I have this in these too"20:09
intradercharlie-tca, thanks, I thought that by adding the distributions, it would add information to bug report.20:10

charlie-tcaOkay, we just have to wait for the developers to get to it now21:42
vishintrader: it is reasonable for bugs to take a considerable amount of time to get fixed..21:42
vishintrader: some bugs are not even triaged for months together, there are not enough people to look at all bugs that a filed.. you are lucky though ;)21:44
valsumpedro_, maybe this could be said easier: "There is no requirement to only triage when someone says okay"21:44
