| snadge | so which is it? :P | 02:17 |

| lou1234 | Hello | 05:48 |
| lou1234 | Can someone help me with a bug report? I found the procedure online to follow | 05:48 |
| lou1234 | but this 'feature' is causing ubuntu to completely crash and log me out | 05:48 |
| lou1234 | hmm.... | 05:50 |
| lou1234 | anyone around? | 05:51 |
| micahg | lou1234: ubuntu-bug is crashing? | 05:55 |
| lou1234 | no | 06:02 |
| lou1234 | when i try to reproduce the bug | 06:03 |
| lou1234 | ubuntu | 06:03 |
| lou1234 | completely crashes and logs me out | 06:03 |
| lou1234 | sorry I am completely new to the bug reporting game. should I still try ubuntu bug? | 06:05 |
| micahg | lou1234: which package is crashing the system? | 06:06 |
| lou1234 | so when i open up a pdf | 06:06 |
| lou1234 | in firefox | 06:06 |
| lou1234 | and then try to print it | 06:06 |
| lou1234 | ubuntu completely crashes | 06:06 |
| lou1234 | I have the samsung universal print driver installed for my laser printer | 06:07 |
| lou1234 | so I am not sure where the problem is | 06:07 |
| micahg | lou1234: maybe try ubuntu-bug xorg | 06:07 |
| persia | When you say "ubuntu completely crashes", could you describe that in a bit more detail? | 06:07 |
| lou1234 | Sure. I select print and then a box pops up I select print and then my screen goes black and goes to the login menu | 06:08 |
| lou1234 | I login and every window I had opened is closed | 06:08 |
| lou1234 | it is like a clean login when I restart firefox it comes up with the 'uh oh' firefox crashed screen and wants to restore tabs | 06:09 |
| persia | Oh, excellent. That is an xorg crash. | 06:09 |
| lou1234 | oh | 06:09 |
| * lou1234 has no idea what it is | 06:09 | |
| persia | `ubuntu-bug xorg` and answer the questions and you'll file the right sort of bug. | 06:09 |
| persia | micahg, What made you know it was xorg that I missed? | 06:10 |
| micahg | persia: Ubuntu completely crashed implied it, we've had a few of those submissions for Firefox, I'm looking for the bug now | 06:10 |
| lou1234 | micahg has this been an issue in 10.10 or has it been there previously? | 06:11 |
| micahg | bug 539772 | 06:11 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 539772 in xorg-server (Ubuntu Maverick) (and 3 other projects) "[MASTER] Lucid 2.6.32-16 crashed to login screen - miCopyRegion (affects: 48) (dups: 22) (heat: 290)" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/539772 | 06:11 |
| persia | micahg, Ah, I see. I'm just never sure if it's xorg or kernel for "completely crashed". | 06:12 |
| persia | (depending on the defintion of "completely) | 06:12 |
| micahg | lou1234: can you please file a new bug with ubuntu-bug xorg and mention that bug number I just put in the channel? | 06:12 |
| lou1234 | sure! | 06:13 |
| micahg | lou1234: thanks | 06:13 |
| lou1234 | so im reading the reporting bugs page... | 06:13 |
| micahg | lou1234: BTW, just out of curiosity, what type of video card do you have? | 06:13 |
| lou1234 | do i need to do any more research or is that it? | 06:13 |
| lou1234 | one sec | 06:13 |
| lou1234 | let me get the model number | 06:13 |
| micahg | lou1234: brand is sufficient in this case | 06:14 |
| lou1234 | ati radeon hd 4670 | 06:14 |
| micahg | ah, yes, ok | 06:14 |
| lou1234 | is this a security vulnerability? | 06:15 |
| persia | Likely only in the denial-of-service sense, and even then, with easy workarounds, so probably not. | 06:16 |
| micahg | lou1234: probably not | 06:16 |
| lou1234 | oh okay ... im still reading the page | 06:16 |
| lou1234 | what exactly are gdm log files ... and is there a way i can view what information it contains? | 06:19 |
| persia | /var/log/gdm/* | 06:21 |
| persia | Should be text files: so use your favorite test reader | 06:21 |
| lou1234 | im in /var/log | 06:22 |
| lou1234 | and when I try to cd/gdm it says permission denied... when I try sudo cd/gdm I'm getting told cd command not found | 06:22 |
| lou1234 | any idea what I am doing wrong? | 06:25 |
| micahg | lou1234: cd gdm? | 06:27 |
| micahg | although that shouldn't work... | 06:27 |
| micahg | lou1234: try ls /var/log/gdm | 06:27 |
| persia | Only root can see those logs. | 06:28 |
| persia | `sudo ls /var/log/gdm` and similar | 06:28 |
| micahg | right | 06:29 |
| lou1234 | basically i just don't want my username posted out there | 06:29 |
| lou1234 | so if there is a quick way for me to edit that out | 06:29 |
| lou1234 | i would have no problem handing the logs out to help peeps with this bug | 06:30 |
| persia | lou1234, If your username is "wakk0", you've already indicated that in a public manner. If not, feel free to edit the logs to claim it is :) | 06:34 |
| lou1234 | haha | 06:34 |
| lou1234 | fair enough | 06:35 |
| lou1234 | If I am doing a backtrace do I need to completely backout of the bug report - do the backtrace and then refile it? | 07:00 |
| persia | No. | 07:01 |
| persia | You can attach the stacktrace to the bug later. | 07:01 |
| lou1234 | oh ok | 07:02 |
| lou1234 | does this title work - firefox causes xorg to crash | 07:02 |
| persia | I'd recommend something involving the printing action. | 07:03 |
| persia | Once the PDF is open, firefox is no longer the primary application. | 07:03 |
| lou1234 | oh | 07:04 |
| lou1234 | now that i submitted it do i need to do anything else? | 07:22 |
| persia | Wait, mostly. | 07:28 |
| persia | Ideally, someone will either find a solution or ask for more information. | 07:29 |
| lou1234 | if they ask for more info | 07:35 |
| lou1234 | will i get an email? | 07:36 |
| persia | If LP has your email address, you ought, yes. | 07:36 |
| lou1234 | LP? | 07:38 |
| lou1234 | oh nevermind | 07:38 |
| lou1234 | okay | 07:38 |
| lou1234 | thanks for all of the help! | 07:38 |
| lou1234 | have a good one! | 07:38 |

| popey | persia: I see you're in a helpful mood this morning with regards to bugs :) | 10:55 |
| popey | persia: any chance someone (anyone) could tell me how we get bug 619663 as an SRU for maverick? basically dual screen on intel is broken, fixed in xorg-edgers. | 10:56 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 619663 in libdrm (Ubuntu) (and 2 other projects) "[maverick] Non-mirrored dual-screen gives narrow display on secondary monitor (affects: 28) (dups: 6) (heat: 172)" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/619663 | 10:56 |

| ikonia | that would be helpful to resolve, that's been quite a keen one in #ubuntu recently | 10:58 |
| persia | Anyone tested the debdiff? | 10:58 |
| persia | Ah, yes, it is tested. | 10:59 |
| persia | OK. Bug needs to be subscribed to the sponsors team (ubuntu-sponsors). | 11:00 |
| persia | Someone needs to upload it (who can upload X) | 11:00 |
| persia | then it goes into -proposed, and we need folk both affected and unaffected to try it to verify it fixes the issue and doesn't cause regressions. | 11:00 |
| persia | If that's true, it drops into -updates in about a week. | 11:00 |
| popey | should I be looking for someone who can upload to x ? | 11:06 |
| persia | That's what subscribing "ubuntu-sponsors" does. I can do the subscription if you don't want. | 11:06 |
| popey | ah | 11:07 |
| persia | There's a report generated every few minutes based on all the bugs that are subscribed to sponsors (which are supposed to have debdiffs), and developers are encouraged to review that, and sponsor some fixes for stuff they can upload regularly. | 11:07 |
| persia | popey, So, I'm kinda blind to how opaque all these processes are, as I'm intimately involved in many of them. Do you think it's worth trying to prepare some guidance on how to get things moving from the viewpoint of someone less familiar? I imagine it would help you, but, as ikonia mentioned elsewhere, also reduces the bar for folks to maybe push things that aren't ready. | 11:09 |
| ikonia | popey: I would be happy to help you with that | 11:10 |
| popey | yes | 11:11 |
| popey | i have found that some bugs I can "fire and forget" such as those relating to CUPS | 11:11 |
| popey | Till is massively _on_ the ball there | 11:11 |
| popey | whereas others, X, kernel, nautilus.. I can file a bug and see no action other than a bugsquad person pasting a boilerplate repy | 11:12 |
| popey | *reply | 11:12 |
| popey | I can hang out in channels and poke people, but that's suboptimal, doesn't scale and places more 'importance' on 'my' bugs relative to other peoples who dont have direct access to developers | 11:12 |
| ikonia | that burns me | 11:12 |
| ikonia | is there currently a guide/process/work-flow for bugsuad members on dealing with a bug ? | 11:14 |
| zeroseven0183 | Hi ikonia. Here are some of the pages that are useful when triaging bugs | 11:17 |

| zeroseven0183 | Be sure you have a Launchpad account | 11:18 |
| ikonia | I do | 11:18 |
| ikonia | I just want to read what the process is | 11:18 |
| zeroseven0183 | I also suggest watching this video tutorial: Bug Triage 101 http://blip.tv/file/3219368 | 11:19 |
| ikonia | always work a look | 11:19 |
| zeroseven0183 | :-) | 11:20 |
| persia | popey, Till is an example of the sort of monomanaically-focused developer that gets as close to "maintainer" as we have :) | 11:20 |
| persia | ikonia, I'm happy to be a counterparty to be asked questions for any process/procedure that's tricky over the bug management/development range, the more so if the result is a document that is useful to people who aren't me. | 11:21 |
| ikonia | well thats the game, get a process in place that allows people to contribute, but also puts some form of quality control in place | 11:33 |
| ikonia | and also makes sure the bugs are filled with useful information and the correct status | 11:33 |
| persia | Yep :) | 11:35 |

| mistrynitesh | ikonia: 'wishlist' is a value for importance | 11:41 |
| ikonia | ah | 11:42 |
| mistrynitesh | only members of bug-control team can change it, so I am requesting them | 11:43 |
| persia | mistrynitesh, It5's not wishlist: it's filed against the wrong project. | 11:44 |
| persia | needs to be filed against the lucid-backports project. | 11:44 |
| persia | https://bugs.launchpad.net/lucid-backports | 11:45 |
| mistrynitesh | :S oh, ok | 11:45 |
| mistrynitesh | what should be done for Bug #659074 , it is written in polish and the reporter asks to speak Polish :( | 11:47 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 659074 in firefox (Ubuntu) "margorlik@gmail.cm (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/659074 | 11:47 |
| persia | mistrynitesh, We usually turn those into questions (in polish), hoping the support team can file a bug on their behalf. | 11:51 |
| persia | mistrynitesh, if you happen to know polish, or can understand the bug without further coordination with the submitter, may as well just translate the bug, and move forward towards resolution. | 11:51 |
| mistrynitesh | persia: I had no idea what it meant. Just found it was polish by trial at translate.google.com 8-) | 11:53 |
| persia | If you're up for it, maybe grab someone in #ubuntu-pl to help integrate with the local support team. | 11:53 |
| persia | I suspect that they have a procedure (I know there is one for a few other LoCo support teams) to handle these, and if we align with it, we'll provide best service for the user. | 11:54 |
| mistrynitesh | hmmm will check out | 11:54 |
| persia | I guarantee there is at least one person in #ubuntu-pl able to communicate in English (as it is a requirement to set up the channels properly with the LoCo Council), although they may not be online at the moment. | 11:54 |
| mistrynitesh | persia: is there something by the name of lucid-backports? Nearest search I could find was ubuntu-ruby-backports-ppa | 12:02 |
| persia | https://bugs.launchpad.net/lucid-backports | 12:03 |
| mistrynitesh | then why doesn't it show up in the search list when I click on 'choose' alongside the package name and type 'backports' or 'lucid-backports' | 12:05 |
| persia | Because launchpad doesn't have a working search facility for terms that are subsets of other terms. | 12:06 |
| persia | So if you search for "foo" and "foobar" happens to exist, you'll probably never find "foo" | 12:06 |
| mistrynitesh | is it okay if I manually type 'lucid-backports' in the package field of bug report? | 12:07 |
| mistrynitesh | sounds misterious :) will change the package to 'lucid-backports' | 12:08 |
| mistrynitesh | persia: oopsie, when I type 'lucid-backports' in the package field and click 'Save Changes' launchpad gives the error "Launchpad doesn't know of any source package named 'lucid-backports' in Ubuntu" | 12:12 |
| persia | You need "Also Affects Project" | 12:12 |
| persia | Not "Also affects Distribution" | 12:13 |
| persia | Source package is correct. | 12:13 |
| mistrynitesh | okay! | 12:14 |
| mistrynitesh | persia: thanks for guiding :) | 12:22 |
| persia | mistrynitesh, Thanks for helping put bugs in the right place, and asking if you weren't sure. | 12:23 |

| jibel | bdmurray, hi, do you know if the number of people affected by a specific bug is increased when the report matches a bug pattern ? | 15:48 |
| elder | My X session crashes whenever I run "gitk" on another system using my 10.10 laptop as the DISPLAY. | 15:50 |
| bdmurray | jibel: No, I don't believe so due to the order of apport operations. The duplicate notification would be displayed before there is an Oauth token for apport so writing to the bug isn't possible yet. I believe I reported a bug about wanting to increase the user affected count. | 15:56 |

| bcurtiswx_ | OK, WHo's Ready for some meeting fun?!?!?!? | 18:00 |
| bcurtiswx_ | #startmeeting | 18:00 |
| meetingology | Meeting started Tue Oct 12 16:57:38 2010 UTC. The chair is bcurtiswx_. Information about MeetBot at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AlanBell. | 18:00 |
| meetingology | Useful Commands: #topic #action #link #idea #voters #vote #chair #action #agreed #help #info #endmeeting. | 18:00 |
| xteejx | Yup | 18:00 |
| devildante | I forgot it! :p | 18:00 |
| * charlie-tca waves | 18:00 | |
| * devildante waves too | 18:00 | |
| * xteejx waves back | 18:00 | |
| bcurtiswx_ | Welcome all. I will be your chair today. | 18:00 |
| bcurtiswx_ | I want to make sure that if you add a topic to the meeting wiki, you put your name next to it, so the next chair knows who's going to be talking about what | 18:00 |
| * charlie-tca notes we got us a meeting bot too | 18:01 | |
| bcurtiswx_ | So Today I plan on posting the topic and if the person who added it is here , they can speak up at that time | 18:01 |
| bcurtiswx_ | First things first: | 18:01 |
| bcurtiswx_ | #topic Intro to new meeting bot. -bcurtiswx | 18:02 |
| meetingology | TOPIC: Intro to new meeting bot. -bcurtiswx | 18:02 |
| devildante | I lol'd at the name :p | 18:02 |
| bcurtiswx_ | So , for those who aren't using text to speech, should be able to see that we have a meeting bot :) | 18:02 |
| * xteejx wonders how we would use TTS for IRC (one for another day I guess) | 18:03 | |
| bcurtiswx_ | Please use the following link to check out the commands in detail (it's not the exact commands, but it's quite close) | 18:03 |
| bcurtiswx_ | #link https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ScribesTeam/MootBot | 18:03 |
| bcurtiswx_ | Future chairs should use this bot, as it simplifys the meeting minutes (posts the log to a website) | 18:04 |
| bcurtiswx_ | when I end the meeting it will post a link to the log | 18:04 |
| bcurtiswx_ | Any questions on the bot? | 18:05 |
| * xteejx thinks it seems pretty effective | 18:05 | |
| nigelb | +1 nice idea | 18:05 |
| xteejx | +1 | 18:05 |
| charlie-tca | You have to preceed all commands with # ? | 18:05 |
| Olivier_Blaziken | +1 | 18:05 |
| bcurtiswx_ | if anyone has an idea they need to do the following, for it to be logged | 18:05 |
| bcurtiswx_ | #idea , note that this command adds an entry into the log | 18:05 |
| bcurtiswx_ | well it should... i can say it is still in beta. | 18:06 |
| bcurtiswx_ | we'll have to see, lol | 18:06 |
| simar_ | is the bug squad meeting going on?? | 18:07 |
| nigelb | yes | 18:07 |

| hggdh | oops | 18:14 |
| nigelb | heh | 18:14 |
| hggdh | hold on, let me check them | 18:14 |

| charlie-tca | will you update the wiki and launchpad on holstein ? | 18:16 |

| charlie-tca | nigelb: next? | 18:17 |
| nigelb | ok | 18:17 |
| nigelb | I've been assigned 2 students who're finally showing some signs of interest in working | 18:17 |
| charlie-tca | :-) | 18:17 |
| nigelb | flipe is going well, he's asking me or asking in the channe when he has doubts | 18:17 |
| nigelb | He's very much interested in learning and helping out :) | 18:18 |
| nigelb | gigacore got it touch with me the day he was assigned, not heard from him since | 18:18 |
| nigelb | that's about it from me | 18:18 |
| charlie-tca | devildante: | 18:18 |
| devildante | ok | 18:19 |
| devildante | samwho is doing progress, even though he's busy at times with IRL university work | 18:19 |
| devildante | my other assigned student, I sent him an email but he has not responded yet | 18:19 |
| devildante | I should probably send him another e-mail | 18:20 |
| devildante | that's it for me, thanks :) | 18:20 |
| charlie-tca | bdmurray: here?? | 18:20 |
| charlie-tca | bcurtiswx: | 18:21 |
| charlie-tca | you may as well take it | 18:21 |
| bcurtiswx_ | cagordon hasn't gotten back to my e-mails. it's onyl been a week, since my last two assigned both dropped out. I will email cagordon again soon. | 18:21 |
| bdmurray | charlie-tca: yes, I'm here | 18:22 |
| charlie-tca | any update on your mentee? | 18:22 |
| bcurtiswx_ | davely has shown interest, and i then told him to meet me in IRC and start reading guides.. but no show on IRC so far.. and no emails since then | 18:22 |
| bcurtiswx_ | both i will email soon for a follow up | 18:23 |
| charlie-tca | excellent. | 18:23 |
| bdmurray | I didn't think I was on the list with my launchpad work ... | 18:23 |
| charlie-tca | heh, looks like someone gave you a mentee again | 18:24 |
| charlie-tca | We will work on that one | 18:24 |
| charlie-tca | bcurtiswx: we will need anyone not present to send an update to the mailing list | 18:24 |
| charlie-tca | Eveybody is doing a really super job with this program. Keep up the great work! | 18:25 |

| bcurtiswx_ | OK moving on | 18:26 |
| bcurtiswx_ | #topic Regression tags and workflow. | 18:26 |
| meetingology | TOPIC: Regression tags and workflow. | 18:26 |
| bcurtiswx_ | nobody assigned. who wanted to talk about this? | 18:26 |
| hggdh | jibel: there? | 18:26 |
| hggdh | Otherwise I can talk about it | 18:27 |
| hggdh | We have discussed regression tags on our last meeting | 18:27 |
| bcurtiswx_ | hggdh, go ahead, and jibel can pipe in if he gets in | 18:27 |
| hggdh | We have also sent an email to -devel talking about it, and asking for feedback | 18:28 |
| bcurtiswx_ | Quick summary for those not present before? | 18:28 |
| nigelb | liky to the thread? | 18:28 |
| devildante | yes please :) | 18:28 |
| hggdh | Now, with the feedback we received we are going to start implementing it | 18:28 |
| hggdh | the change: we are dropping the 'regression-potential' tag | 18:29 |
| hggdh | It only created more work (mostly when a development release got promoted to stable, like right now with Maverick | 18:29 |
| xteejx | +1 | 18:29 |
| bcurtiswx_ | i see, +1 | 18:30 |
| devildante | so what would be the tag that will replace it? | 18:30 |
| hggdh | instead we are going to mark regressions as 'regression(release|proposed|update)' followed by the version we found it in | 18:30 |
| hggdh | like maverick, lucid, etc | 18:30 |
| xteejx | hggdh: Can we have an example? | 18:30 |
| devildante | +42 then :) | 18:30 |
| bcurtiswx_ | regression-proposed-maverick for instance? | 18:30 |
| hggdh | no. 'regression-release maverick' | 18:30 |
| bdmurray | actually ['regression-proposed', 'maverick'] | 18:31 |
| hggdh | two different tags: one identify a regression, the other identify the version it was *found* on | 18:31 |
| bdmurray | so 2 separate tags | 18:31 |
| bcurtiswx_ | OK | 18:31 |
| xteejx | Got it | 18:31 |
| hggdh | there are some reasons | 18:31 |
| bcurtiswx_ | any questions on this topic? | 18:31 |
| devildante | "regression-release natty" for unstable releases? | 18:31 |
| hggdh | - we identify a regression on Maverick, but it was present since Jaunty | 18:31 |
| hggdh | devildante: yes | 18:32 |
| hggdh | as we find releases affected, we *nominate* them on the bug | 18:32 |
| xteejx | So essentially, is a regression or not, no more "could be"'s? | 18:32 |
| hggdh | yes, essentially. If it is not a regression, no nomination, or the nomination is rejected | 18:32 |
| xteejx | Ok | 18:33 |
| bcurtiswx_ | hggdh, anything else? | 18:33 |
| hggdh | most regression-potential never got changed to -release | 18:33 |
| hggdh | we will start to implement it now, for the Natty cycle. | 18:33 |
| bdmurray | bug day! | 18:33 |
| xteejx | Is this being removed from LPGM script and LP? | 18:33 |
| bcurtiswx_ | bdmurray would know about LPGM | 18:34 |
| hggdh | yes. And it will be removed from the regression wiki pages | 18:34 |
| bdmurray | xteejx: good question! | 18:34 |
| hggdh | this as bdmurray points out, is a serious candidate for a bug day | 18:34 |
| bcurtiswx_ | #action Bug Day to be created for regression-potential tags | 18:34 |

| nigelb | I have something for this item o/ | 18:37 |
| bcurtiswx_ | nigelb, we'll come back at end, sorry | 18:38 |
| nigelb | bcurtiswx_: about the wiki | 18:38 |
| nigelb | (the current one) | 18:38 |
| bcurtiswx_ | oh, so you post about my topic before i post about the topic.. :P nice | 18:38 |
| charlie-tca | Well, I wanted to know the meeting date and time. I went to my trusty wiki page, /HowToTriage and the heading is missing. No problem, I will go to events. | 18:38 |
| nigelb | Unofficially, I have heard that the wiki theme is going to change to a new theme light. You can see in your wiki preferences page right now. | 18:39 |
| charlie-tca | That fails too. As a matter of fact, I don't think you can find the meeting from that page any more | 18:39 |
| nigelb | Thedate for that theme's launch is set to be tomorrow - this might mean a massive redsign of the wiki - especially the headers | 18:40 |
| charlie-tca | If the bugsquad is connected to these wiki pages, we should have a single heading format. Right now, we have two headings in use, and they do not even reference each others pages | 18:40 |
| charlie-tca | All these changes are great, but they are not making it any easier to find anything. | 18:40 |
| charlie-tca | I suggest we somehow get the same headings on all the pages, or at least get some links to the other sections for the bugsquad to use | 18:41 |
| bcurtiswx_ | charlie-tca, OK. Who would have the time to edit for similar headers?. someone other than charlie plz.. hes already doing stuff :) | 18:41 |
| nigelb | arg, cornered o/ | 18:42 |
| charlie-tca | HowToTriage has grown ridiculously long, but does not even link to many of the pages we need any more | 18:42 |

| charlie-tca | It is not needed, devildante | 18:43 |

| bcurtiswx_ | OK moving on.. | 18:43 |
| bcurtiswx_ | nice segway devildante | 18:43 |

| bcurtiswx_ | bdmurray, ^^ ? | 18:43 |
| devildante | I did not expect that :p | 18:44 |
| bdmurray | I was looking at HowToTriage recently and it really seems quite long | 18:44 |
| mistrynitesh | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage#Sound page asks to report hardware related issues against alsa-base, but Bug Reports link on http://packages.ubuntu.com/maverick/alsa-base indicates alsa-driver. Time to update wiki? | 18:44 |
| bdmurray | I was wondering if other people feel the same way | 18:44 |
| * charlie-tca nods | 18:44 | |
| devildante | I think you have a point here :) | 18:44 |
| * bcurtiswx_ asks attendees to visit http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage | 18:44 | |
| bdmurray | I guess I'd like to see a HowToTriage and HowToTriageAdvanced page | 18:45 |
| devildante | I'd like to see a LOT of images on HowToTriage | 18:45 |
| bdmurray | HowToTriage would just be "try to recreate and set status to confirmed. Now you are triaging!" | 18:45 |
| devildante | a picture is worth a thousand words :) | 18:45 |
| charlie-tca | and give a reference to meetings and to other pages | 18:46 |
| bdmurray | Otherwise the triaging process seems overwhelming and hard to be a part of | 18:46 |
| hggdh | I agree | 18:46 |
| bdmurray | but really its rather easy | 18:46 |
| devildante | the biggest problem IMO is that it isn't even "ordered" | 18:46 |
| xteejx | +1 it should be made as simple as possible | 18:46 |
| bdmurray | add a tag - bam! you are triaging | 18:46 |
| xteejx | or package assignment, maybe that's Intermediate though... | 18:47 |

| bcurtiswx_ | devildante, you have the floor | 18:49 |
| bcurtiswx_ | ..so to speak.. :P | 18:49 |
| devildante | thanks :) | 18:49 |
| devildante | Currently, we only accept bug reports in English | 18:49 |
| devildante | making it nearly impossible for people not fluent in English to report a bug | 18:50 |
| devildante | What I would like to propose is to propose to each language community (ubuntu-fr, ubuntu-es...) to have small groups of bug triagers | 18:51 |
| devildante | that can talk both English and their foreign language | 18:51 |
| micahg | s/foreign/native :) | 18:51 |
| devildante | they triage bugs from people in the local community, then get it on Launchpad all translated | 18:51 |
| devildante | micahg: yes, thanks :) | 18:52 |
| bcurtiswx_ | I see. What about urging reporters to report in english, if not then we can use something like google translate.. and request the appropriate groups to finish | 18:52 |
| seb128 | hey | 18:52 |
| * bcurtiswx_ waves to seb128 | 18:52 | |
| seb128 | just lurking but don't start translating bugs | 18:52 |
| * micahg uses Google Translate for foreign bugs and has not been attacked for incorrectness yet | 18:52 | |
| xteejx | I don't mean to burst the bubble, but wouldn't it just be easier to copy/paste from Google translate into LP | 18:52 |
| seb128 | we have bugs over want we can triage and work on | 18:52 |
| * charlie-tca uses google translate, too | 18:52 | |
| seb128 | there is no need to try to get lower quality technically ones adding to that | 18:53 |
| xteejx | Or better yet... | 18:53 |
| seb128 | especially when you can't ask questions without having a translator | 18:53 |
| bcurtiswx_ | seb128, so in essence asking the reporter to translate will decrease workload drastically ? | 18:53 |
| devildante | I use it too, but it's not always perfect + by doing this, you make the "not-talking-english" reporters refrain from posting other bugs IMO | 18:53 |
| xteejx | On th report a bug page, have a small "if English is not your native language, please type here and choose your language and it will be translated to English" explnation in each language and implement the Google API into the webpage? | 18:54 |
| bcurtiswx_ | what about LP using something like google translate automatically ? | 18:54 |
| bdmurray | Long term we'd like non-english speakers to be able to report bugs too we just really aren't in a position to deal with them now. | 18:54 |
| bcurtiswx_ | if it recognized non english words it will auto translate.. then maybe add a tag saying ti was auto translated ? | 18:54 |
| micahg | bcurtiswx_: that seems more prone to error | 18:55 |
| xteejx | Yeah, an "expect badly broken English" message ;) | 18:55 |
| bcurtiswx_ | well the tag would let us know it's not going to eb perfect | 18:55 |
| xteejx | +1 | 18:55 |
| devildante | advantage of the approach I proposed is that those bugs, rather than in a foreign language, would be triaged and ready for fixing | 18:55 |
| bdmurray | Its not just about reporting the bug but having a conversation between the reporter and the triager. This conversation can be hard enough with native English speakers. | 18:55 |
| micahg | bcurtiswx_: the LP bug devs have more important fish to fry IMHO | 18:55 |
| bcurtiswx_ | micahg, sounds fine to me.. just offering suggestions :P | 18:56 |
| xteejx | On the flip side, that counts most of us English speaking triagers who may be more knowledgable than those in the Loco teams | 18:56 |
| seb128 | why do you want to translate bugs? | 18:56 |
| seb128 | what issues do you try to fix? | 18:56 |
| seb128 | we want less bug in better quality | 18:56 |
| bdmurray | In the event that there is a bug report not in English by all means have someone look at it but lets not encourage non-English bug reports at this point in time. | 18:56 |
| seb128 | not extra bugs coming from automatic translations where the submitter will not be able to understand and reply to questions | 18:56 |
| seb128 | if the submitter is not writting english chances are that he's not technical enough to submit a bug anyway | 18:57 |
| bcurtiswx_ | bdmurray, OK. I see both sides. It's fair to keep it as is | 18:57 |
| xteejx | I'm guessing some already use Google to file bugs | 18:57 |
| devildante | xteejx: we can offer help to those LoCo teams | 18:57 |
| seb128 | users issues should go to the answer tracker | 18:57 |
| hggdh | +1 | 18:57 |
| micahg | that's the important thing that needs more attention | 18:57 |
| devildante | seb128: since when we do require bug reporters to have technical knowledge? | 18:57 |
| xteejx | There's always the -es/-fr/-de IRC channels | 18:57 |
| seb128 | bugs are technical descriptions of issues | 18:57 |
| hggdh | we do not, and this is a problem, devildante | 18:58 |
| seb128 | "... doesn't work, please help me to solve it" are for the answer tracker | 18:58 |
| charlie-tca | I was wondering the same thing. Are we going to require the bug reporters to learn to program, too? | 18:58 |
| xteejx | with those coming from Mac and Windows, this shoul dbe as easy as possible | 18:58 |
| devildante | the technical descriptions should come from bug triagers, who identify the problem | 18:58 |
| seb128 | oh come on | 18:58 |
| bcurtiswx_ | OK. i'd ask that we stop and continue this dicsussion in the mailing list. devildante woudl you start an e-mail? | 18:58 |
| seb128 | we have bugs over want we can triage | 18:58 |
| seb128 | what is the point to make easier to report lower quality bugs | 18:58 |
| devildante | bcurtiswx_: okay :) | 18:58 |
| micahg | charlie-tca: simple steps to reproduce and knowing that it's a bug not a how-to is what seb128 is saying I think | 18:58 |
| seb128 | just get users to file their issues on the answer tracker | 18:58 |
| devildante | later though, I have some work to do | 18:59 |
| seb128 | than you can review the answer trackers and switch those to bugs if you want | 18:59 |
| bcurtiswx_ | #action: devildante to start e-mail thread in mailing list about translations of bug reports | 18:59 |
| meetingology | ACTION: : devildante to start e-mail thread in mailing list about translations of bug reports | 18:59 |
| xteejx | Good point | 18:59 |
| hggdh | I agree with seb128 | 18:59 |
| xteejx | Same | 18:59 |
| bcurtiswx_ | I'm moving on, please continue discussion in the mailing list. | 18:59 |
| * micahg agrees as well | 18:59 | |
| * devildante will be afk for a while, but agrees about the ML part | 19:00 | |

| bcurtiswx_ | everyone, yw. have a great week :) | 19:02 |
| xteejx | On a lighter note, I know it's aside from triaging, but might make you all smile a little | 19:02 |

| nigelb | xteejx: good work | 19:03 |
| xteejx | nigelb: Not really, I just heavily edited the audio and used the video from the Examples folder | 19:05 |

| devildante | sorry, micahg :) | 19:51 |
| jibel | hggdh, sorry I couldn't attend the bugsquad meeting, it was late and I had to deal with the kids. I'll take the actions to organize the bugday and update the wiki pages. | 19:52 |
| hggdh | jibel: np problem, and thank you :-) | 19:53 |
| jibel | hggdh, thanks to you for presenting the workflow so perfectly :-) | 19:53 |
| devildante | jibel: I have to say, that workflow is much much better, so thank you both :) | 19:54 |
| jibel | devildante, thanks, we will see when applying it to real bugs. | 19:55 |
| nigelb | bug Could not load one of the supported DNS libraries (dnspython or pydns). | 19:57 |

| nigelb | right, so this is fixed, okay :) | 19:58 |
| xteejx | wow so many expired bugs are just a load of old crap | 20:09 |
| devildante | xteejx: that's the idea behind it ;) | 20:09 |
| xteejx | i.e. no replies to requests for info, getting thru at a good rate :) | 20:09 |
| xteejx | devildante: lol | 20:10 |
| njin | can someone triage this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/657504 | 20:13 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 657504 in alsa-driver (Ubuntu) "Sound on the headphones doesn't work (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,Confirmed] | 20:13 |
| xteejx | I'll take a look | 20:14 |
| devildante | Shouldn't those bugs be reported against linux? | 20:14 |
| xteejx | devildante: I was always cautious about sound ones, could be either, more likely alsa | 20:15 |
| xteejx | njin: This doesn't need triaged, there was a request by Felix for the reporter to try a live CD (10.10) but it hasn't been done | 20:15 |
| devildante | xteejx: it was njin (Fabio) who requested that :p | 20:16 |
| xteejx | lol | 20:16 |
| njin | can someone triage this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/655078 | 20:17 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 655078 in nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) "Beta 10.10 Nvidia update broke Sony Vaio VPCF136FM installation (affects: 11) (heat: 62)" [Undecided,Opinion] | 20:17 |
| xteejx | There isn't any apport information in the alsa report...that's the first thing | 20:17 |
| njin | I think that is a broken module | 20:18 |
| xteejx | njin: The nvidia problem is a known issue, it's in the release notes | 20:18 |
| njin | xteejx:thanks, at now i don't have time to do nothing | 20:19 |
| xteejx | I'll sort it if you want | 20:19 |
| njin | ok, thanks | 20:20 |
| njin | xteejx:^^ | 20:20 |

| shauno | what's the best way to go about filing a bug when you genuinely have no idea what package is at fault? | 22:11 |
| devildante | shauno: you can ask us :) | 22:14 |
| devildante | shauno: what's your bug? | 22:14 |
| shauno | my touchpad doesn't work, at all, under maverick | 22:15 |
| devildante | shauno: do an "ls /proc/bus/input/devices" in a terminal, please | 22:17 |
| devildante | oops, no, forget that | 22:18 |
| shauno | it's there, with 444 perms | 22:19 |
| devildante | report it against linux | 22:19 |
| devildante | developers should know whether it's a kernel or xorg problem | 22:19 |
| micahg | shauno: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingTouchpadDetection | 22:19 |
| shauno | fairly sure it's X, because click works (so it's using the right device). just zero movement | 22:20 |
| micahg | devildante: ^^ | 22:20 |
| devildante | yes, I saw that page | 22:20 |
| shauno | micahg: looks promising. just grabbing elinks now :) | 22:20 |
| devildante | micahg: but the instructions are a little outdated, I think | 22:20 |
| micahg | devildante: k, that I don't know, if you know what the updates are, feel free to fix | 22:21 |
| devildante | micahg: "If you do not find a Touchpad in you /proc/bus/inpus/devices, ..." but /proc/bus/input/devices is a file for me | 22:21 |
| BUGabundo | oias | 22:21 |
| devildante | micahg, that's the problem, I don't know how to fix that :-/ | 22:22 |
| charlie-tca | heh, too many mentions of Hal, too | 22:22 |
| shauno | devildante: the touchpad is mentioned in that file | 22:23 |

| shauno | hah, mbp3,1 ? | 22:25 |
| devildante | but my apple trackpad is working | 22:25 |
| devildante | ah, no, 7,1 | 22:25 |
| * micahg needs to subscribe to natty-changes | 22:25 | |
| * devildante updates his natty now | 22:25 | |
| shauno | this used to work in 8.04. in 10.04 it worked, but needed gsynaptics to set the tracking speeds (which were all set to zero). now gsynaptics has gone | 22:26 |
| charlie-tca | file the bug using ubuntu-bug linux . someone can change the package if needed, then | 22:26 |
| devildante | yeah, it's the best way :) | 22:27 |
