| micahg | RedSingularity: you should *never* tell people to remove their profile folders | 05:20 |
| RedSingularity | micahg: even if they back up like he did? | 05:22 |
| ddecator | RedSingularity: we always tell them to make a new profile using the profile manager so they can leave the old profile untouched and test with a fresh profile (assuming this is firefox related) | 05:24 |
| ddecator | ask them* | 05:24 |
| micahg | RedSingularity: ah, ok, in that case, it's not so bad, I usually suggest creating a new profile | 05:25 |
| RedSingularity | ddecator: thunderbird....but ok. Will remember in the future | 05:25 |
| micahg | ddecator: RedSingularity thunderbird also has a profile manager, it's just not as obvious | 05:25 |
| RedSingularity | micahg: yeah i had him backup but if its bad practice I will refrain from it in the future :) | 05:25 |
| ddecator | RedSingularity: just helps prevent accidents :) | 05:26 |
| * micahg gets scared when he sees stuff like that | 05:26 | |
| micahg | RedSingularity: the other problem is people might come along and only read part of the bug report and try what you suggested w/out backing up | 05:26 |
| RedSingularity | micahg: That wasnt the issue anyway it seems. You had suggested a video card problem? | 05:27 |
| micahg | RedSingularity: actually, I forgot it's natty, I blame compiz :) | 05:27 |
| RedSingularity | micahg: for the scrambled text? | 05:27 |
| micahg | RedSingularity: but it would probably be best to show it to the compiz guys and see if they think it's caused by compiz, otherwise, I'll show it to the X guys | 05:28 |
| RedSingularity | micahg: how do you suggest I show it to them? Just email them? | 05:28 |
| micahg | the intel drivers are usually pretty stable, actually I think there was just an update for an intel tearing issue | 05:29 |
| micahg | RedSingularity: there was an intel driver update last night, i'm curious if that will fix it | 05:29 |
| RedSingularity | micahg: why would the issue only effect thunderbird tho? | 05:30 |
| micahg | possibly, thunderbird might be executing something other apps don't | 05:30 |
| RedSingularity | micahg: hmmm...to test compiz, I can ask him to use metacity temporarily... | 05:32 |
| micahg | RedSingularity: that's an idea :) | 05:32 |
| RedSingularity | micahg: ok if that doesnt work do you want to show the x team? | 05:33 |
| micahg | RedSingularity: yep | 05:33 |
| RedSingularity | ok | 05:33 |

| seb128 | om26er, ok, can you ask for ubuntu-sponsors review so it's listed on the sponsoring queue? | 09:03 |
| seb128 | this way it doesn't slip through | 09:03 |
| om26er | i thought ~desktop-team was different, i'll subscribe sponsors | 09:04 |
| seb128 | om26er, no it's not ;-) | 09:05 |
| seb128 | well you get extra people who can do review and merges | 09:06 |
| seb128 | but it doesn't hurt to have those in the normal sponsoring queue as well | 09:06 |
| seb128 | it means the patch pilot of the day will see it | 09:06 |
| seb128 | which might be faster than waiting on desktopers | 09:06 |

| seb128 | bdmurray: hi | 17:46 |
| bdmurray | seb128: hello | 17:46 |
| seb128 | bdmurray: do you know if there was some discussion about close old crash bugs from launchpad | 17:46 |
| seb128 | like the ones for releases which are not supported anymore if they never got a comment | 17:46 |
| m4gnus | bdmurray: just wanted to get some literature to know where to begin...currently reading through the info that camelinahat sent me. thank you. | 17:47 |
| seb128 | or if they didn't get a duplicate or a comment for over a year | 17:47 |
| seb128 | bdmurray: "if there ever was some discussion" rather | 17:47 |
| seb128 | bdmurray: seems we stack old crash bugs which happened once to one users and where retracing failed etc | 17:47 |
| === nixternal_ is now known as nixternal | ||
| bdmurray | seb128: nothing is immediately coming to mind. | 17:48 |
| seb128 | do you think it would be something easy to script and useful to do? | 17:48 |
| seb128 | should I email the list to start a discussion about it? | 17:48 |
| bdmurray | seb128: yes, yes and no. Personally, I don't think I could commit to it until O. | 17:49 |
| seb128 | bdmurray: was the "no" for the email to the list? | 17:50 |
| seb128 | why "no"? it was just to see what other bugsquaders thing about it | 17:51 |
| bdmurray | seb128: okay, I'm just not sure what would come of it. | 17:51 |
| seb128 | bdmurray: I was not especially asking you to do it and there is no hurry either | 17:52 |
| bdmurray | seb128: Okay, I didn't think you were - just thought I'm the one most likely to do it. | 17:52 |
| seb128 | you think it's not controversial, it's just a matter of having someone writting the script and do it? | 17:53 |
| camelinahat | bdmurray: No questions exactly, just being new to the process just a bit nervous about making any changes/package assignments etc without some guidance initially. Don't want to approach things incorrectly and end up making more work for others | 17:54 |
| bdmurray | seb128: Right, I don't think its controversial because technically those bugs (or a subset of those) are or should be incomplete. For example if they are tagged apport-retrace failed they should be automatically set to Incomplete and then they'll be eligible for expiration and auto expiration. Here we are just doing what should have been done. | 17:54 |
| === Abhijit_ is now known as Abhijit | ||
| bdmurray | camelinahat, m4gnus: I suggest looking at bugs about a package you care about / use. Then pick one that looks interesting and ask for help here. | 17:55 |
| seb128 | bdmurray: ok thanks, I might have a go at writting the script then, I will bring back the topic at UDS if it doesn't happen before that | 17:55 |
| bdmurray | seb128: In the same vein we recently stopped reporting most nspluginwrapper bugs in natty too and those also could be closed. | 17:56 |
| seb128 | oh, yeah, there is a stack of those on launchpad still private | 17:57 |
| seb128 | I wanted to ping chrisccoulson about that | 17:57 |
| seb128 | it's like the component getting the most apport crashes | 17:57 |
| chrisccoulson | i just want it to die | 17:58 |
| chrisccoulson | please :) | 17:58 |

| seb128 | lol | 18:00 |
| seb128 | that's the spirit! | 18:00 |
| chrisccoulson | seriously though, we're just waiting for 64-bit flash | 18:00 |
| chrisccoulson | nspluginwrapper is totally dead, and has been for a long time | 18:00 |
| chrisccoulson | it's certainly not something i plan to spend any time on ;) | 18:00 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: I have on my list to look at the merge proposal for 1.3.0 | 18:01 |
| chrisccoulson | just do it ;) | 18:01 |
| chrisccoulson | it's not going to be any worse than what we have now | 18:01 |
| ari-tczew | micahg: merge with Debian? | 18:01 |
| micahg | ari-tczew: yeah, someone started it about 18 months ago | 18:01 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: it fails to build an needs work, that's why it didn't get into maverick :) | 18:01 |
| chrisccoulson | ah | 18:02 |
| micahg | and I'd actually rather spend time porting other things to xul 2.0 then nspluginwrapper | 18:02 |
| chrisccoulson | ari-tczew, there you go, you could maybe look at that ;) | 18:02 |
| chrisccoulson | is nspluginwrapper using xpcom at all, or is it pure NPAPI? | 18:03 |
| chrisccoulson | if it's not the latter, then it probably should get blacklisted for IPC | 18:03 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: seems like none of the above | 18:06 |
| chrisccoulson | heh | 18:07 |
| BUGabundo | its all your fault chrisccoulson | 18:09 |
| BUGabundo | :) | 18:09 |
| chrisccoulson | it's always my fault | 18:10 |
| chrisccoulson | that's just a fact of life ;) | 18:10 |
| bdmurray | m4gnus and camelinahat: For example I really like gpsprune and use it a lot so would look for bugs about it since I am familiar with the software and can recreate them. Also because I'd like it to be better. | 18:11 |
