| Takyoji | So what would be a reasonable means of submitting a bug in regards of: I just had a laptop freezing insanely, just trying to install an application, with an average system load at a peak of 13, and averagely 11. | 06:37 |
|---|---|---|
| Takyoji | With update-apt-xapian-index raping the processor, and software-center and various dpkg tools taking top priority of harddrive usage, making the system completely unusable. | 06:37 |
| Takyoji | on 10.10 | 06:37 |
| Takyoji | Happens pretty much anytime installing an application or doing updates. | 06:38 |
| Takyoji | and in totem, with basic audio playback, there's occasional stutters; while VLC is completely unusable in regards of stuttering endlessly. | 06:39 |

| charlie-tca | ara: thanks for remembering xubuntu in pairwise testing | 15:32 |
| ara | charlie-tca, :) | 15:42 |
| ara | charlie-tca, we will wait until tomorrow, anyway, the bug I found today affects everything | 15:42 |
| davmor2 | ara: give me a poke tomorrow and I'll try and fit in some wubi tests for you :) | 15:49 |
| Psychodelius | Hi everyone | 15:52 |
| davmor2 | Psychodelius: hello | 15:53 |
| Psychodelius | Hi davmor2 | 15:54 |
| Psychodelius | I am just starting to join ubuntu testing. do you people mind me asking what kind of testing software you use, and why? | 15:55 |
| charlie-tca | Psychodelius: Many of us simply run the ISO images in a virtual machine. It saves destroying the installation we use daily. | 16:04 |
| charlie-tca | Some, myself included, use VirtualBox but also have a separate computer to allow hardware testing, too. | 16:05 |
| davmor2 | some of us have multiple sets of HW to test on and don't tend to both with the VM's | 16:10 |
| fader_ | There's also a tool called checkbox that some of us use for system testing | 16:11 |
| fader_ | And there's a lot of ad-hoc specific testing we do without specific testing tools for it, just written test cases | 16:11 |
| Psychodelius | alright, thank you all very much for your advice. i'll look into all these | 16:17 |
| Psychodelius | I live in an apartment where space is a premium | 16:18 |
| fader_ | Psychodelius: If you're interested in helping to test ISO images (in a virtual machine or otherwise) you might be interested in the ubuntu-qa-tools package | 16:18 |
| Psychodelius | I had to throw away so much hardware previously (til my heart bled) | 16:19 |
| fader_ | It has (among other things) scripts to automatically keep images sync'd to the latest version | 16:19 |
| Psychodelius | fader_: thank yo. Yes, I am looking into it right now | 16:19 |
| fader_ | Cool :) | 16:19 |
| Psychodelius | alright, going to bed now | 16:21 |
| Psychodelius | see you all | 16:21 |
| Psychodelius | later | 16:21 |
