| stlsaint | bcurtiswx: hrm, well vish is the only person ive been dealing with and others have titled him "admin" | 01:37 |

| * bcurtiswx waves to jorge | 01:39 | |
| stlsaint | yofel: well heres my issue | 01:40 |
| stlsaint | bcurtiswx: ^^ | 01:40 |
| stlsaint | i have been assinged a mentor drew... | 01:40 |
| stlsaint | but i cant triage any bugs as im not part of the team on lp | 01:41 |
| stlsaint | (though i thought i was from vish) | 01:41 |
| yofel | er, you don't need to be part of the team... | 01:41 |
| yofel | ... to triage bugs | 01:41 |
| bcurtiswx | bugsquad is open to anyone (right?) | 01:41 |
| micahg | bcurtiswx: no, but that still doesn't stop triage | 01:42 |
| micahg | you have to sign the CoC, it's moderated now | 01:42 |
| bcurtiswx | stlsaint, yeah, triage is still very possible without being a member.. your mentor will be able to explain why and how :) | 01:42 |
| stlsaint | well i cant triage a bug on lp as im not part of the team | 01:42 |
| stlsaint | i just tried | 01:42 |
| bcurtiswx | stlsaint, you don't have to be | 01:42 |
| yofel | stlsaint: do you mean 'set to Triaged' by chance? | 01:42 |
| bcurtiswx | stlsaint, what are you trying to do? | 01:42 |
| yofel | only bug control can do thta | 01:42 |
| yofel | *that | 01:42 |
| micahg | stlsaint: you can't mark a bug triaged? only bug control can, just requesto someone to mark it in here for you | 01:42 |
| bcurtiswx | well don't everyone jump in at one :P | 01:43 |
| stlsaint | micahg: oh hey | 01:43 |
| * micahg goes back to lurking... | 01:43 | |
| micahg | :) | 01:43 |
| stlsaint | so i can triage it but someone else has to mark it, well will i be able to list the bug as something that i triaged? | 01:43 |
| micahg | stlsaint: right | 01:44 |
| bcurtiswx | stlsaint, triaging is the act of all the things you do to "mark as triaged", so anything that you help with you can say you helped triage | 01:45 |
| stlsaint | bcurtiswx: right i see alright so i guess i should post a bug here than and ask you to triage it ;) | 01:47 |
| stlsaint | i just confirmed it | 01:47 |
| stlsaint | well actually i brought the bug to the dev of it and a few others confirmed | 01:47 |

| abhijit | WimYedema, why dont you ask in #ubuntu+1 | 14:16 |
| WimYedema | because I didn't know about that channel;) | 14:17 |
| rrittenhouse_ | Is there a flowchart of the bug process? I think that would be extremely helpful | 14:55 |

| rrittenhouse_ | or have things changed? | 16:16 |
| charlie-tca | If there are stack traces, they need to match | 16:17 |

| rrittenhouse_ | Someone should screencast sessions of triaging sometime (that know what they are doing). Id like to see the workflows that some people use | 16:39 |
| popey | great idea! | 16:40 |
| * micahg thought someone already did | 16:40 | |
| rrittenhouse_ | lol im sure someone has... they always seem to be ten steps ahead | 16:40 |
| rrittenhouse_ | i just can't find them | 16:40 |
| popey | theres one about filing bugs | 16:41 |
| popey | not triaging | 16:41 |
| popey | AFAIAA | 16:41 |
| * charlie-tca thought we had one too | 16:42 | |
| rrittenhouse_ | i'm thinking of interactive sessions with people that are doing it as they go along so others can ask questions about why they do what they do | 16:42 |
| rrittenhouse_ | i could be off of my rocker but it sounds helpful | 16:42 |
| yofel | that would be a screencast + a -classroom session | 16:44 |
| yofel | now you need someone that does it :P | 16:44 |
| rrittenhouse_ | nice | 16:45 |
| popey | could be done at somewhere like a bug day | 16:45 |
| popey | have a few people sat around a pc, record the screen and the audio | 16:45 |
| popey | so you get the discussion and why people are tagging and replying to bugs in that way | 16:45 |
| popey | real world scenarios | 16:45 |
| popey | s/bug day/global jam/ | 16:46 |
| rrittenhouse_ | yeah...basically | 16:46 |
| rrittenhouse_ | hell even if people recorded their 5-a-day if thats still going on | 16:47 |
| charlie-tca | 5-a-day is recorded automatically now, makes that more difficult | 16:51 |
| rrittenhouse_ | interesting.. :) | 16:51 |
| rrittenhouse_ | but smarter for sure | 16:52 |
| neeraj_gupta | how to add support for non-genuine packages bug reporting through apport. I was working on adding support for bug reporting for sucrose-0.88 package | 16:52 |
| popey | charlie-tca: i think rrittenhouse_ doesn't mean what you think he means | 16:53 |
| popey | charlie-tca: rrittenhouse_ means "screencasting a 5 a day session", not "record the stats of a 5-a-day session" | 16:53 |
| popey | I think | 16:53 |
| rrittenhouse_ | true popey but either way i didn't realize it was recorded automatically now | 16:54 |
| rrittenhouse_ | it's just a classification really people can just record them doing a few each day to show the different kinds of real world scenarios you might run into or how to handle certain scenarios | 16:54 |
| yofel | neeraj_gupta: needs an apport hook for the package and if you keep the bugs in a seperate launchpad project a small crashdb config file | 16:55 |
| yofel | neeraj_gupta: did you already read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Apport/DeveloperHowTo ? | 16:56 |
| rrittenhouse_ | popey, What do you think would be the appropriate next-step in seeing if something like this is valuable to people? Do I create a Wiki page and submit a blueprint or ? | 16:56 |
| popey | I'd write a script, and think of bugs that you could triage, and maybe even make some dummy bugs on the staging launchpad server | 16:57 |
| popey | then record the screen whilst triaging those bugs | 16:57 |
| neeraj_gupta | yofel: yes I did. I don't know how this can happen. I had used ubuntu-bug -p for sugar-0.88 afair. at that time it was working file. I have read about apport-hook when I first went through apport. | 16:57 |
| yofel | neeraj_gupta: are you talking about a ppa package or the official one? | 16:58 |
| rrittenhouse_ | popey, I don't know how to triage yet..hence why i'm even pondering it. I keep trying but keep getting way confused but like I said I am a visual learner and theres mounds of documentation to sift through to learn it. | 16:59 |
| rrittenhouse_ | popey, I triaged a couple back in the day with my old mentor (bobbo) and done a little packaging here and there but that's been 2 years now I think. | 17:00 |
| popey | ah, ok | 17:00 |
| neeraj_gupta | yofel: official | 17:03 |
| yofel | neeraj_gupta: it shouldn't tell you that it's a non-genuine package in this case. What's your output of 'apt-cache policy sucrose-0.88' ? | 17:04 |

| * nigelb didn't want to linger in -ops | 19:31 | |
| charlie-tca | I suppose. I will keep trying though | 19:31 |
| nigelb | great, thanks for being on the case :) | 19:31 |
| charlie-tca | sure | 19:32 |
| charlie-tca | ah-ha. Ops are on it | 19:32 |
| nigelb | what the.... | 19:33 |
| annon | hi. I just installed 10.04.1 LTS with full disk encryption, but every time it boots up my monitor says "video mode not supported" before I can even enter the password to unlock /. what can I do about it? it has to be a setting in /boot since this is the only partition not encrypted at this point. | 19:37 |
| charlie-tca | still trying | 19:38 |
| charlie-tca | nigelb: no ops available that can do anything in there | 19:40 |
| nigelb | charlie-tca: none from concil is around? Pici ? | 19:41 |
| nigelb | or even popey | 19:41 |
| rrittenhouse_ | annon, have you tried asking in #ubuntu ? | 19:41 |
| charlie-tca | doesn't seem to be | 19:41 |
| hggdh | where are the ops when we need them? | 19:41 |
| rrittenhouse_ | hggdh, why, whats wrong? | 19:42 |
| hggdh | on #ubuntu-meeting, rompeculos and Ubunterito | 19:42 |
| rrittenhouse_ | oooh ok. | 19:42 |
| charlie-tca | apparently, you almost never need them there | 19:43 |
| nigelb | charlie-tca: sigh, that access list needs expanding if you ask me. | 19:44 |
| nigelb | I should raise that with ircc | 19:44 |
| charlie-tca | that list is almost obsolete. That is part of the problem | 19:44 |
| * nigelb growls | 19:45 | |
| nigelb | frustrating to feel so helpless | 19:45 |
| annon | rrittenhouse_: yes, about 4 times, no reply. it's a bug, isn't it? | 19:45 |
| charlie-tca | done | 19:45 |
| * nigelb hugs Pici :) | 19:46 | |
| nigelb | g22 | 19:46 |
| rrittenhouse_ | annon, I have no clue - I was just thinking that's where they did support moreso than here. (correct me if im wrong) | 19:46 |
| charlie-tca | rrittenhouse_: correct | 19:47 |
| charlie-tca | annon: sounds like a bug in xorg; have you checked launchpad for one? | 19:48 |
| annon | charlie-tca: is xorg in /boot? I have no clue to be honest, but since /boot is the only unencrypted partition at this point, and I don't think /boot contains xorg, I don't think xorg is the problem here. | 19:49 |
| rrittenhouse_ | annon, I asked you for more details in #ubuntu (unless they want to talk about it here) | 19:50 |
| annon | rrittenhouse_: rather here :-) | 19:50 |
| rrittenhouse_ | annon, what kind of graphics card do you have? | 19:50 |
| charlie-tca | rather there. This is not support, but rather to discuss bug triage issues | 19:51 |
| annon | nvidia gt 220. | 19:51 |

| charlie-tca | right. Here is the howto - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs | 19:55 |

| prek | 15% bat ;D | 20:00 |

| rusivi | micahg: hey quick question while I'm diving into all the bugs I touched, it seems once I am done if I want to continue bugging I should put a small disclaimer in my initial posting that I am a new bug zapper. What do you think about that? | 21:01 |
| rusivi | micahg: Couple responses I have read the people seemed a little salty.... | 21:02 |
| yofel | well, the people don't care if you're new or not, and telling them you're new won't make them happier IMHO | 21:02 |
| charlie-tca | sometimes using the standard responses (copy and paste) helps | 21:03 |
| rusivi | yofel: duly noted more of something like I'm a newer volunteer perhaps or just stock responses as charlie-tca suggests? | 21:04 |
| yofel | rather try to stick to our usual process, meaning first try to check if you can reproduce the bug and only if you're unable to do so ask the reporter questions. And leave the bug alone if you don't have the environment to test the bug | 21:04 |
| yofel | a tent to agree with charlie-tca | 21:04 |
| yofel | *tend | 21:04 |
| rusivi | yofel: then I agree too | 21:04 |
| rusivi | yofel / charlie-tca: ty | 21:07 |
| charlie-tca | Of course, we all get snapped at too | 21:09 |
| rrittenhouse_ | popey, (referring to the live screencast+qa thing). I need to find someone that wants to experiment with this. Is the technical infrastructure already ready? | 21:12 |
| popey | it probably needs two people sat next to eachother | 21:13 |
| rrittenhouse_ | how so? | 21:13 |
| rrittenhouse_ | You could possibly use the IRC chat combined with a live video service (if youtube live was out this might work?). I think a text chat with people watching a live screencast + voice would suffice, would it not? | 21:15 |

| rusivi | ok, maybe not major but significant... | 21:20 |
| charlie-tca | looking | 21:22 |
| rusivi | charlie-tca: just resume from suspend on my laptop got prompted for password, now trying to do so by lid closing | 21:23 |
| rusivi | just resume from suspend = I just resumed from suspending | 21:23 |
| micahg | rusivi: I don;t think a disclaimer will matter | 21:23 |
| rusivi | micahg: I agree | 21:23 |
| charlie-tca | Not security issue because the original reporter filed a wishlist bug to have a gui to disable screen locking | 21:23 |
| rusivi | charlie-tca: sorry bud | 21:24 |
| charlie-tca | His system locked automatically when suspending and he wanted to disable that | 21:24 |

| popey | rrittenhouse_: possibly | 21:26 |
| rusivi | charlie-tca: your totally right | 21:26 |
| charlie-tca | comment #29, it works as the user wants it to, when the lid is closed. However, gconf editor is a gui that can be used to change the behavior ( comment #19) | 21:27 |
| charlie-tca | I would put that back to confirmed and let the design team work it. You could tag it "usability" | 21:28 |
| charlie-tca | ooops | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | Rather, according to the last two comments, the original bug as reported is fixed in lucid | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | So, a note that the bug no longer exists as filed, if there are other options desired to lock the screen, please file a new bug. | 21:30 |
