ubot2Launchpad bug 514834 in linux (Ubuntu) "mic not working on toshiba satellite M305d with ubuntu karmic 9.10 (affects: 2) (heat: 19)" [Undecided,New]04:23
micahgseidos: yeah, I"ll mark it invalid, thanks04:25
seidoshmmm, looks like there isn't a "solved" option.04:25
seidosmicahg, ok04:25
micahgseidos: done04:25
* seidos nods @ micahg 04:26
slooksterpsvI have some questions about bug reporting if someone is avail04:54
micahg!ask | slooksterpsv04:55
ubot2slooksterpsv: Please don't ask to ask a question, simply ask the question (all on ONE line and in the channel, so that others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely reply. :-)04:55
slooksterpsvpretty much I want to file a bug that's been reported, but it says fix released, but the bug still exists; do I just comment on that bug or create a new one?04:55
AbhiJitslooksterpsv, which is that bug?04:55
AbhiJitaddress?04:56
slooksterpsvgwibber not being able to add facebook accounts04:56
micahgslooksterpsv: please file a new bug and reference the old one04:57
slooksterpsvhaha someone beat me to it04:59
persiaThere's a "This bug affects me" button which you might want to press04:59
slooksterpsvnot seeing it :( I saw it before on another bug related to this one, if its a duplicate of another bug would I be added already?05:00
slooksterpsvnevermind I'm an idiot05:00
persiaNo, the UI just gets confusing sometimes.  You'll get used to it.05:02
slooksterpsvok; how can I help with bugs specifically besides reporting them? should I find work-arounds for temporary fixes? download the source and try to resolve the issue myself? try daily builds to see if it's resolved in those? or... cause I'd love to help with bugs, my programming knowledge is limited, but I know what I'm searching for depending on how well it's documented05:03
micahgslooksterpsv: have you read this? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage05:05
persiaslooksterpsv, Often the best way to help is to track down the specific issue.  Workarounds and temporary fixes aren't usually interesting, as they often can't be deployed for everyone.  Daily build testing is a very scattergun approach.05:09
slooksterpsvok05:10
lifelesspersia: scattershot :P05:10
persiaMy experience is that something like 20% of bugs have a fix *somewhere* (maybe a blog post, maybe another distribution, maybe upstream, etc.), and it's worth testing and confirming those.05:10
persialifeless, Think scale.  One can knock out a crowd with scattershot from a single gun, but scattering guns about can be just as effective, and gives one the opportunity to walk away, whistling nonchalantly.05:11
persiaBut anyway, if you like, perhaps "using a shotgun to hunt ants"05:12
slooksterpsvalrighty, and you guys would be here or someone would be to assist me if I get stuck on where to go once I've got the basics like how to further help along those lines - this is a lot of documentation btw05:13
micahgslooksterpsv: there's usually a bug control member in here almost all the time05:13
drew212stlsaint: hey, you doing any triaging?05:23
slooksterpsvok this is a whole lot of information to take down, but i gtg to bed work early tomorrow. so I'll try and help with bugs and that. see you tomorrow05:24
snadgeis someone going to update the freenx ppa for maverick?07:07
persiasnadge, You'd have to hunt down the freenx PPA folk.  We have nothing to do with that.07:16
snadgeyeah i know.. i stupidly decided to update to maverick thinking i might be able to fix my nx problem07:17
snadgewhich is great, its kept the neatx server installed.. but i can only connect to it from windows nx client.. i get an error with the ubuntu one07:18
snadgei guess i'll just have to wait for the ppa to be updated.. since theres no other method i can see for getting it to work on ubuntu.. they all point to that ;)07:21

laynxteejx: How are you?10:49
xteejxlayn: Good thanks, anything we can help with?10:49
laynxteejx: Oh, thank you very kind are familiar with Oracle, then?10:51
xteejxlayn: I'm not unfortunately, sorry. Is it a bug, or a problem you are having?10:52
xteejxlayn: If it is a problem rather than a bug, you'd be better going to #ubuntu - most questions can be answered there :)10:54
laynnow I have no problems or bugs on my system but gave a look at the new bugs reported10:54
xteejxlayn: Don't worry, we are well aware of the number of bugs, and it is expected10:55
xteejxthat there will be some things which aren't 100% perfect10:55
laynxteejx: you are a member of bug-squad10:57

miku_hi, anyone here with knowledge about intel gfx chip on ubuntu?10:59
xteejxmiku_: Whats the problem?10:59
persialayn, The trick is to only help when you have time: don't let it interfere (or you'll stop).  Do let it (slowly) make you an expert in working with bugs, so you can easily establish a quick resolution if you encounter one that affects $work.10:59
xteejxpersia: Afternoon/evening persia :)11:00

ubot2Information about using and setting your computer's clock on Ubuntu can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuTime - See https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/serverguide/C/NTP.html for information on usage of the Network Time Protocol (NTP)11:00

miku_xteejx: i have 10.10 on mac mini and there is problems with video playback11:05
miku_xteejx: long latencies11:05
xteejxIs this an Intel i945/965?11:06
miku_yes11:06
xteejxWhy am I not surprised :(11:06
miku_slowd eats cpu on every 10seconds so i traced it to the drm_crtc_helper.c11:07
xteejxHoneslty, I doubt it's a bug, its a crap "graphics chip", have you enabled any restricted drivers11:07
xteejx(don't think there are any for i945/965)11:07
miku_in drm_crtc_helper.c there is #define DRM_OUTPUT_POLL_PERIOD (10*HZ)11:08
xteejxdrm? What kind of video you trying to play?11:08
miku_in increased that to two hours :), and the video playback issue fixed11:08
miku_so apparently it is polling the display ports and that causes long latencies11:09
miku_of course is not a proper fix11:09
laynok dependencies resolved11:09
xteejxOk, have you filed a bug for this?11:09
miku_nope i haven't11:09
xteejxmiku_: You definitely should, and include your workaround :)11:09
xteejxmiku_: File with "ubuntu-bug linux"11:10
miku_i am at work so i can't use any tools to file it now :(11:10
xteejxOk no worries :)11:10
miku_i assume i should do 'ubuntu-bug linux' on that particular setup which is ill behaving?11:12
xteejxThe LPGM script is still not working!! It's a really simple fix... remove the extra tag from the xml file at http://people.canonical.com/~brian/greasemonkey/bugsquad-replies.xml - or is Brian thr only one who has access there?11:12
xteejxmiku_: Yup, it'll grab all your system hardware info for debugging11:13
miku_that was only issue i encountered with my mac mini so 10.10 rocks :) thankyou for making it11:14
xteejxMe? I had very little to do with it :P11:14
* xteejx thinks he should grab some breakfast...it's 11:15am11:15
yofelxteejx: he merged my branch, and I think the xml file is synced periodically from bazaar, you'll have to ask him for anything more specific11:27
xteejxyofel: Ok, so it's a matter of time then, hopefully not too long, I'm hating the typing, slows down the triaging11:45
yofelagreed11:45
yofelactually http://people.canonical.com/~brian/greasemonkey/bugsquad-replies.xml seems fixed - does it still not work?11:47
xteejxI still see "XML Parsing Error: mismatched tag. Expected: </reply>."11:48
xteejxAnd no it doesn't work :(11:49
xteejxForget that11:49
xteejxIt does, I'm a dipstick didn't refresh lol11:49
* xteejx shouts WOOHOO11:49
xteejxyofel: Just a small note, the [Release+1 Testing] link still says Karmic Koala11:50
yofeleeek11:51
xteejxlol11:51
yofelI'll update it to natty when I get the time and nobody else did it ^^11:52
xteejxyofel: Cool. Could I be really cheeky and ask to have the "Old untouched bugs" response put in? :)11:52
yofelwell, brian's the one that maintaines the file, but I could add it and file a merge request I guess11:54
xteejxOh right - didn't realise :)11:54
* xteejx has no heating on in his house, has the fan on full speed, and is still hot!11:57

schnattahi. i have a bug that is grub related but not necessarily really a grub bug. the essential problem is, that you use the actual device names in the grub config for the root parameter14:03
schnattaif a user installs from an usb stick on a usb harddrive and unplugs the usb stick afterwards this causes a simple drop to the initrd shell on the next reboot14:03
schnattabecause /dev/sdc became /dev/sdb14:03
schnattaso you should stick to uuid parameters14:04

hggdhit is indeed a security vulnerability, and the security team is already subscribed. But it is also a sync/merge request, which means it should not be touched except for the steps shown in the page15:19

dyfetI should drop "merge" from the title for clarity, it is a pure sync...15:20

xteejxbug 227543 - a strange one, has anyone seen this? I'm not sure how to proceed with triage on this one, it's not easily reproducible16:52
ubot2Launchpad bug 227543 in synaptic (Ubuntu) "Unnecessarily incomplete advice for package in inconsistent state (heat: 3)" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/22754316:52
charlie-tcaLooks like one of those "old bug" types. You could mark it as invalid; modify the no response from reporter response to reflect we can't do anything until it can be reproduced16:54
xteejxcharlie-tca: Ok, cool thanks Charlie :)16:55
charlie-tcaOr put it back in "new" with a comment that we need it reproduced in a current version16:55
xteejxOops, to late, Invalidated it16:56
xteejxs/to/too/16:56
charlie-tcaThat's okay. If it can be reproduced, they can set it back anyway16:56
xteejxThat's true. I left the "if you can give us the info..." bit in the message :)16:57
jibelxteejx, charlie-tca, this is not invalid this is the raw output from dpkg which is displayed in the dialog.16:57
charlie-tcaIs it still displaced broken?16:58
charlie-tcaI thought it shows the full text now16:58
xteejxI also thought that16:58
charlie-tcaemma: wine-dev: Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should16:58
charlie-tcais the issue16:58
charlie-tcawell, not emma16:58
jibelyes the message from dpkg is exactly16:59

jibel Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should16:59
jibel reinstall it before attempting a removal.16:59
jibelor other package16:59
charlie-tcaYes, but he only got the first sentence16:59
xteejxThe bug is that the text is truncated in the dialog box16:59
xteejxis/was16:59
jibeloh, I should have read it twice :(17:00
charlie-tcaI could be wrong, but I think that is no longer valid17:00

jibelI've fixed it at some point if I remember.17:01
charlie-tcaI just follow jibel's lead on most of the dpkg errors17:01

charlie-tcawhew! Thanks17:01
xteejxSetting it Invalid wasn't that bad a move then :)17:01

charlie-tcaThanks for taking the time to help with that, jibel17:06
xteejxI'm confused now, if it's fixed it should be Invalid right?17:06
jibelsbeattie, thanks.17:06
xteejxor Fxi released even17:06
jibelsbeattie, is there a way to plug the testsuites coming with the packages in qa-r-t ?17:07
xteejxjibel, do you mean you're testing it?17:07
jibelsbeattie, I'm thinking about coreutils for example17:07
jibelxteejx, yes, I'll test it, not now but I'll do.17:07
jibelxteejx, but if you're testing it then go, no problem.17:08
sbeattiejibel: if it's packaged, yes; we do that for mysql and postgresql. If it's not packaged, it can be done, but it's a bit more work.17:08
xteejxjibel, Oh right, sorry I got confused, will set it Incomplete for now then17:08
xteejxjibel, I'll be honest I'm on production machine I don't wanna cause breakages to find out :(17:08
sbeattiejibel: but yeah, taking advantage of upstream testsuites wherever we can would be great.17:08
jibelsbeattie, when testing SRUs, I run the testsuite shipped with the package when there is one.17:10
jibelsbeattie, There was a coreutils SRU recently and the testing in qa-r-t is rather ... basic while the one coming with the source is fairly complete.17:11
sbeattiejibel: right, the two testcases for coreutils were actually demos from an openweek session I gave on how to write testcases for qa-r-t.17:12
jibelsbeattie, I'll check how this is done for mysql and postgresql and see if I can do something with other testsuites.17:12
xeroadminI can't update without something going wrong18:16
xeroadminrecently I had to reinstall because the latest kernel release disabled networking18:16
hggdhjibel: coreutils comes with extensive tests in the source package; these tests are executed on build time.18:19
hggdhjibel: also, you could grab the source and run _all_ the tests (root/non-root, expensive, etc).18:20
hggdhsbeattie: I thought you were on a holiday ;-)18:21
sbeattiehggdh: theoretically. :-)18:23

jibelhggdh, re coreutils testsuite, my question was does it makes sense to plug them with the qa-r-t or not  ?20:13
hggdhjibel: I briefly looked at separating the test suite from coreutils proper, but it is not as simple as I hoped20:14
hggdhjibel: we _could_ just grab the package, and rebuild it20:15
hggdhjibel: but I never went that far. I rebuild coreutils almost every day -- I provide upstream's CU on my PPA20:15
jibelhggdh, we were talking about coreutils, but while verifying SRUs, I've seen that many many packages comes with a testsuite, not always as elaborated as coreutils, and I'm wondering how we could glue those testsuites with our testsuite and if something as already been done this way ?20:17
hggdhjibel: some work has been done -- IIRC, mysql tests are now pacakged by themselves. We could try the same with CU, and others20:20
hggdhthis would give us better coverage on SRUs20:20
jibeland postgresql too.20:20
micahghggdh: remember, one of ways people fix FTBFS is to disable the test suite20:20
jibelor simply to speed up the build process, e.g gcc testsuite20:21
hggdhyes, indeed. This is another reason tests should be separated20:22
jibelor java testsuite (30 hours)20:22
micahghggdh: we started running the test suite for Firefox 4 in the daily PPA and it takes 2.5 hrs longer to build20:25
hggdhyes, I understand. But somewhere, somehow, we should still run the tests. perhaps (probably?) not at build time20:26
chrisccoulsonthe firefox test suite really needs to be run at build time, as it depends on the build tree20:29
chrisccoulsoni'm not sure it would be possible to run it elsewhere (you'd still need to run the whole build)20:29
chrisccoulsonand then you're not testing what you've built in the archive20:29
hggdhbut it could also be run elsewhere -- for example, on regression testing20:35
jibelwe could maybe proceed in 2 times, build and once the build is ok delegate the test somewhere else in order to have a non blocking test run.20:35
hggdhso what we seem to be agreeing on (at least jibel and myself) is that it would be nice to be able to package the tests20:37
jibeland we are talking about large to huge test suite, but most of the packages have tiny testsuites.20:38

xteejxBut I know we have our own guidelines, but the above is on my own wishlist one day :)21:50
devildanteis it normal the Examples folder only contains a single folder called "Ubuntu_Free_Culture_Showcase"21:52
devildante?21:52
xteejxNot usually, although I've just looked and noticed that21:52
xteejxThere used to be openoffice examples as well, oh and a couple of pdfs21:53
xteejxMaybe they're trying to keep the iso size down this time?21:53
devildanteproblem is I follow the laptop testing guidelines, and it says to open fables_something.xcf, which doesn't exist :p21:54
xteejxdevildante: Where are these guidelines?21:55
devildanterather testcases: http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Plans/LaptopTesting#Audio21:55
xteejxHmm, that page is editable, but I'm useless with the wiki format. Perhaps one of the guys will have a look into this?21:57
devildanteI could edit it, but I'm not sure what I would replace it with21:57
