[06:37] <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
[06:38] <Takyoji> Happens pretty much anytime installing an application or doing updates.
[06:39] <Takyoji> and in totem, with basic audio playback, there's occasional stutters; while VLC is completely unusable in regards of stuttering endlessly.
[06:53] <ara> good morning!
[15:32] <charlie-tca> ara: thanks for remembering xubuntu in pairwise testing
[15:42] <ara> charlie-tca, :)
[15:42] <ara> charlie-tca, we will wait until tomorrow, anyway, the bug I found today affects everything
[15:49] <davmor2> ara: give me a poke tomorrow and I'll try and fit in some wubi tests for you :)
[15:52] <Psychodelius> Hi everyone
[15:53] <davmor2> Psychodelius: hello
[15:54] <Psychodelius> Hi davmor2
[15:55] <Psychodelius> I am just starting to join ubuntu testing. do you people mind me asking what kind of testing software you use, and why?
[16:04] <charlie-tca> Psychodelius: Many of us simply run the ISO images in a virtual machine. It saves destroying the installation we use daily.
[16:05] <charlie-tca> Some, myself included, use VirtualBox but also have a separate computer to allow hardware testing, too.
[16:10] <davmor2> some of us have multiple sets of HW to test on and don't tend to both with the VM's
[16:11] <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
[16:17] <Psychodelius> alright, thank you all very much for your advice. i'll look into all these
[16:18] <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
[16:19] <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 :)
[16:21] <Psychodelius> alright, going to bed now
[16:21] <Psychodelius> see you all
[16:21] <Psychodelius> later
