| spaz | I was told to come here with a question regarding a "fixed" bug | 03:03 |
|---|---|---|
| rusivi | Quick comment on bug 572970 complaint was made in #ubuntu regarding why toggled Fix Released status when Lucid had no GPM updates. It was inferred that based on how Maverick/Natty have updated versions of GPM, that is why, but due to lack of comments looking for clarity. | 03:05 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 572970 in gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu) "Battery indicator stuck on fully charged (affects: 2) (heat: 18)" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/572970 | 03:05 |
| spaz | That's the question! | 03:07 |
| charlie-tca | rusivi, I think it was another change by someone not knowing what they were doing. There should be a changelog when bugs are marked fixed, or at least a comment about what fixed it. | 03:29 |
| charlie-tca | The reporter changed it, and should have left it in "new" status | 03:30 |
| charlie-tca | It is now back to "new". We need someone to confirm it now. | 03:31 |
| rusivi | charlie-tca: Thanks for addressing the bug! | 03:32 |
| charlie-tca | You are welcome | 03:34 |
| micahg | charlie-tca: rusivi, wait, the reporter was the one who marked it fix released, what's the issue? | 03:50 |
| rusivi | micahg: spaz had noted that it was an issue for him/her | 03:51 |
| micahg | rusivi: so, that user should file a new bug | 03:51 |
| rusivi | I would have told spaz that if the package had changed in Lucid but it had not been changed. | 03:52 |
| rusivi | spaz mentioned he encountered the same problem in UNE 10.04 | 03:53 |
| micahg | rusivi: g-p-m has been updated each release | 03:53 |
| rusivi | micahg: I figured that the "Fix Released" was due to either reporter mistake or reporter updated to Maverick/Natty, either way not Fixed Released. | 03:54 |
| micahg | rusivi: fix released is if it's fixed in teh devel release, not all releases | 03:55 |
| rusivi | Ah, I thought Fix Released meant fixed in the release it was bugged against, my mistake. | 03:55 |
| micahg | rusivi: if it's SRU worthy, then it can be nominated for a previous release | 03:56 |
| rusivi | Based on the low people affected, not a security issue, and low heat, seems not SRU worthy atm... | 03:57 |
| rusivi | It does not affect me btw, just was trying to bring spaz to the right people in order for him to discuss it. | 03:58 |

| charlie-tca | micahg, that reporter on the bug did not give any comments. He added attachments to the bug and marked it fixed the same time he filed it | 12:43 |
| oier | could someone please set status and importance for bug #643895 ? | 13:10 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 643895 in nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) "nvidia propietary driver fails to load X with geforce 310M (affects: 5) (heat: 28)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/643895 | 13:10 |
| oier | many thanks | 13:10 |
| yofel_ | that bugs a bit of a mess, the real issue is that nvidia 260 doesn't support the 310M chipset http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-ia32-260.19.04-driver.html which someone later reported in bug 658657 | 13:20 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 658657 in nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) "nvidia 310M GPUs no longer supported. (affects: 2) (heat: 83)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/658657 | 13:20 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| oier | well the 260 does support the 310m card in theory | 13:27 |
| oier | if you search for the driver you get this link | 13:28 |
| oier | http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux-display-amd64-260.19.21-driver.html | 13:28 |
| oier | and there it is listed as supported | 13:28 |
| oier | by the way the bug you mention (658657) is marked as duplicated of the one I am asking to check (643895) | 13:29 |
| yofel | hm, right, be we don't have .21 in the official repository, only .06 | 13:29 |
| yofel | oier: yes, I just duplicated that | 13:29 |
| oier | but can't you set status and importance of that bug? | 13:30 |
| oier | BTW .21 is avaliable in the X SWAT PPA https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates | 13:32 |
| oier | yofel are you still there? | 13:33 |
| yofel | I'll mark it high since it makes X fail to start, but I'll only set it to conrimed since I don't know what the exact triaging guidelines of the X team are. | 13:34 |
| yofel | oier: I know 21 is there, I'll put a note on the bug about that | 13:34 |
| oier | all right, many thanks | 13:36 |
| oier | ! | 13:36 |
| vish | oier: hi, just noticed your mail.. | 13:42 |
| vish | oier: #ubuntu-x is a good place to ask about that bug | 13:43 |
| oier | ok, many thanks everybody! I hope we can fix it soon | 13:44 |
| oier | is #657634 a duplicate of #643895? | 14:05 |
| seb128 | bdmurray, pedro_: hi | 14:07 |

| seb128 | give | 14:08 |
| seb128 | does anybody know how to use launchpadlib to delete tags? | 14:36 |
| paultag | seb128: yeah, you can get the tag list as a whitespace delimted string | 14:37 |
| paultag | seb128: remove the tag you don't want, and set the tag again | 14:37 |
| seb128 | I've tried bug.tags.remove('need-amd64-retrace') | 14:37 |
| seb128 | with bug.lp_save() next to it to be sure | 14:37 |
| seb128 | but the bug is not editing | 14:37 |
| seb128 | edited | 14:37 |
| pedro_ | seb128, i've something for you, one sec | 14:38 |
| pedro_ | seb128, do you want to remove a tag and then add a comment to that bug, right? | 14:38 |
| seb128 | pedro_, yes | 14:38 |
| pedro_ | seb128, ok , give me a minute to add the comment part | 14:39 |
| pedro_ | i was testing the delete tag part | 14:39 |
| seb128 | pedro_, see #ubuntu-desktop | 14:39 |
| cprofitt | bdmurray: ping | 15:31 |
| cprofitt | curious if you can guide me on what to do when an issue is solved in the most recent release, but not in the LTS? | 15:32 |
| charlie-tca | cprofitt, probably needs a SRU - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Responses#Fixed%20in%20Development%20release%20while%20still%20existing%20in%20a%20previous%20release | 15:36 |
| cprofitt | thanks charlie-tca | 15:36 |
| charlie-tca | You are welcome | 15:36 |
| cprofitt | this is the bug - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-terminal/+bug/653678 | 15:37 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 653678 in gnome-terminal (Ubuntu) "geometry preferences not applied (affects: 2) (heat: 67)" [Low,Fix released] | 15:37 |
| charlie-tca | Bugs are handled pretty the same way, regardless of LTS/non-LTS | 15:37 |
| cprofitt | so in the case of this bug -- its minor | 15:38 |
| cprofitt | just leave as fix released or make it an SRU? | 15:39 |
| cprofitt | from my reading I would say fix released | 15:39 |
| charlie-tca | If it is minor, then, yes, fix-released. If it is needed to make terminal work, SRU. | 15:40 |
| charlie-tca | minor anoyances won't get approved | 15:40 |
| cprofitt | cool... it is good where it is | 15:42 |
| charlie-tca | Thanks | 15:42 |
| cprofitt | charlie-tca: for the win again. | 15:43 |
| cprofitt | thanks for helping me grow my knowledge | 15:43 |
| charlie-tca | You are welcome | 15:43 |
| cprofitt | I remembered reading about it, but could not find the doc while lookings | 15:43 |
| charlie-tca | It is great that people care enough to ask | 15:44 |

| xelister | why we are left with no usable vector editor in ubuntu | 18:26 |
| xelister | inkscape works horrible, crashes each few minutes, and has GUI drawing glitches | 18:26 |
| micahg | xelister: why do you ask questions like this? | 18:27 |
| micahg | xelister: if there are bugs, please file them, if there's a newer version that works better, request an update or backport | 18:27 |
| * micahg doesn't think there's an Ubuntu conspiracy to provide poor vector editing | 18:28 | |
| xelister | micahg: ok I ment: look, what the f- even simple vector editing is not working on ubuntu.. something needs to be done | 18:30 |
| micahg | xelister: ok, the way we do something is to file bugs and/or patches | 18:32 |
| micahg | xelister: it's in Ubuntu, Kubuntu, and Edubuntu, so it's high profile, but idk who actually if anyone works on it | 18:35 |

| jfi | Hi, I wanted to do some test on 11.04 with virtualbox but the performance is .... terrible (slow), did somebody experiment such issue? I did not find a related-bugs | 20:36 |
| micahg | jfi: you might want to try in #ubuntu-testing or #ubuntu+1 | 20:38 |
| jfi | ooops, right, sorry for the noise | 20:39 |
| charlie-tca | jfi, 11.04 requires compiz, to work best. VBox does not allow 3d, so will not be very good with it. | 20:40 |
| micahg | charlie-tca: the non-OSE version has experimental 3D support | 20:41 |
| charlie-tca | It does? I think I reports that it is still going to be less than good | 20:41 |
| jfi | I am using the ose version, I have read that natty is planned to use by default compiz/unity but I thought that metacity will still work correctly | 20:42 |
| jfi | actually, that's terrible, I have the time to count each line drawing when moving window:) | 20:42 |
