| GrueMaster | The issue is that I seem to have this same discussion with each test release. It gets very old and tiresome. | 00:00 |

| cjwatson | (I have a perhaps semi-independent set of issues) | 00:00 |
| GrueMaster | heh | 00:00 |
| cjwatson | if there are hardcoded paths that actually aren't working, BTW, feel free to ask me - I may well be able to patch things up with redirects | 00:01 |
| cjwatson | as a stopgap | 00:01 |
| GrueMaster | Well, I need to focus on actually testing these images. Unfortunately, I don't have the luxury of a larger user base for testing nor do I have the ability to automate in a vm. | 00:01 |

| cprofitt | charlie-tca: | 00:29 |
| cprofitt | where do I log any tests I do? | 00:35 |
| charlie-tca | cprofitt: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/ | 00:55 |
| cprofitt | found it finally charlie-tca | 00:56 |
| cprofitt | thanks | 00:56 |
| cprofitt | the wiki has some dead ends right now | 00:56 |
| charlie-tca | which ones? | 00:57 |
| cprofitt | I can get a list to you in a bit | 00:57 |
| cprofitt | I am trying to get the bios of my ThinkPad updated for the test | 00:57 |
| charlie-tca | oh, yeah, I think a few things got moved :-) | 00:57 |
| charlie-tca | I blew out a network card changing keyboards and adding the KVM switch | 00:58 |
| cprofitt | gah... I need a floppy disk to get the bios updated... | 01:03 |
| cprofitt | and Windows | 01:03 |
| cprofitt | Lenovo... curse you. | 01:03 |
| === cashmoney|away is now known as cashmoney | ||
| cprofitt | charlie-tca: are we supposed to do any of the non-english tests at this point? | 01:58 |
| charlie-tca | If you are able to, yes. We will need to have them done too | 01:59 |
| charlie-tca | They are once only tests, so if someone did them, they don't need redoing. The other tests need 5 each if we can get it | 02:00 |
| cprofitt | no one did one yet... so I will do one in German | 02:00 |
| cprofitt | then I need to do the install | 02:00 |
| charlie-tca | Fantastic! | 02:00 |
| cprofitt | I got the live CD working, but it took effort due to Lenovo using Windows only bios updater | 02:01 |
| charlie-tca | Yup | 02:06 |
| charlie-tca | I really don't like those things, especia | 02:07 |
| cprofitt | yeah... and Lenovo is usually good about that | 02:07 |
| charlie-tca | lly when the first thing I do is get rid of windoiws | 02:07 |
| charlie-tca | new keyboard is still learning letters | 02:07 |
| cprofitt | lol | 02:07 |
| charlie-tca | A nice, mechanical keypress with trackball built in. | 02:09 |
| charlie-tca | But they squashed it just a little bit to fit everything and only be about 1 inch bigger than a normal keyboard | 02:09 |
| cprofitt | charlie-tca: the no-internet non-english failed | 02:37 |
| cprofitt | is it sufficient to fail the test or does a bug need to be opened as well? | 02:37 |
| cjwatson | there's no point failing a test without filing a bug | 02:38 |
| cjwatson | (or linking to an existing bug) | 02:38 |
| cjwatson | we aren't going to magically fix problems without bug reports :) | 02:38 |
| cprofitt | cjwatson: what package would a bug be reported in for that test scenario? Is there one for localization? | 02:39 |
| charlie-tca | what part fails? | 02:40 |
| charlie-tca | does it not install, or it installed and then won't boot or ?? | 02:40 |
| cprofitt | well... the slides are not all in the foreign language and I was not prompted that my language support is not complete | 02:40 |
| cprofitt | http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/Install/NonEnglishLanguage#Installation%20Broken%20Internet | 02:41 |
| cprofitt | that test case | 02:41 |
| charlie-tca | slides are ubuntu-bug . | 02:41 |
| charlie-tca | give me a minute | 02:41 |
| charlie-tca | ubuntu-bug ubiquity-slideshow-ubuntu | 02:43 |
| charlie-tca | while at the live desktop | 02:43 |
| charlie-tca | the other one is filed already | 02:44 |
| charlie-tca | cjwatson: do we need bugs for each language that is incomplete? | 02:44 |
| cprofitt | yeah -- there is a bug for that issue in Spanish already | 02:44 |
| === cashmoney is now known as cashmoney|away | ||
| charlie-tca | just use that bug number in the tracker then | 02:45 |
| cprofitt | even though it is a different language? | 02:45 |
| charlie-tca | yup | 02:46 |
| charlie-tca | you can comment on that report that is it is valid for german too | 02:46 |
| cprofitt | and what package would the lack of a prompt go under? | 02:46 |
| charlie-tca | indicator-notifications? | 02:46 |
| cjwatson | charlie-tca: oh goodness no | 02:47 |
| cprofitt | not sure... I am supposed to get a warning about the language support not being complete, but got no such pop-up | 02:47 |
| cjwatson | there's already a bug for that somewhere | 02:47 |
| cjwatson | look on the tracker index, it's around somewhere | 02:47 |
| cprofitt | I did the installation twice just to make sure | 02:47 |
| cprofitt | k | 02:47 |
| charlie-tca | yes, now that you mention it, there is | 02:48 |
| cjwatson | definitely not indicator-notifications | 02:48 |
| cjwatson | anything in that stack only displays notifications, it doesn't decide which notifications to generate | 02:48 |
| charlie-tca | thanks. That was definitely wrong. | 02:48 |
| charlie-tca | must be tired | 02:48 |
| cjwatson | comment on that report> actually it would be best not to end up with a huge pile of comments saying that it's valid for one language after another :-) | 02:49 |
| charlie-tca | Isn't there already a bug for the missing notice, along with the language being inclo | 02:49 |
| charlie-tca | incomplete? | 02:49 |
| cprofitt | charlie-tca: looking now | 02:49 |
| cjwatson | most bugs of this form happen for either all non-English languages, or for all languages shipped on the CD, or for all languages not shipped on the CD | 02:49 |
| charlie-tca | hm, at least when I am wrong, I am very wrong :-( | 02:50 |
| cprofitt | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/745069 | 02:51 |
| ubot4` | Launchpad bug 745069 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "Not all language packages are downloaded during installtion (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] | 02:51 |
| cprofitt | that fits also | 02:51 |
| charlie-tca | that will make language support incomplete, too | 02:53 |
| cprofitt | so if he goes to the selector he got the pop-up but not an automatic pop-up | 02:53 |
| cjwatson | yes, ubiquity is the thing that makes the automatic notification happen | 02:54 |
| charlie-tca | Right, makes it hard to know without going to the selector whether or not it is complete | 02:54 |
| cjwatson | if it's getting language pack installation wrong, chances are it will also fail to get the notification right | 02:54 |
| * cprofitt nods | 02:54 | |
| cprofitt | makes sense | 02:54 |
| cprofitt | I can definately show folks how to do this when we get to the global jam now | 02:56 |
| cprofitt | the hardest part is knowing what packages to report the bugs under | 02:57 |
| cprofitt | thanks for the assist charlie-tca and cjwatson | 02:57 |
| charlie-tca | no problem | 02:58 |
| charlie-tca | It is good we have cjwatson to keep me straight! | 02:58 |
| cprofitt | I will try to get another test in tonight as well | 02:58 |
| cprofitt | the auto-resize -- can I do two 11.04 installs side by side or should I reinstall 10.10? | 03:02 |
| cprofitt | I am assuming I can go with two 11.04, but thought I should ask | 03:02 |
| charlie-tca | two of anything side by side is valid | 03:10 |
| charlie-tca | so, yes, two 11.04 is okay | 03:11 |
| charlie-tca | I normally do a whole disk install, then the auto-resize of that disk | 03:11 |
| * cprofitt nods | 03:11 | |
| charlie-tca | cprofitt: you okay now? I got to change my network card that quit working today | 03:55 |
| cprofitt | charlie-tca: I am good | 03:55 |
| cprofitt | thanks | 03:55 |
| charlie-tca | Thanks for helping with the tests. | 03:56 |
| cprofitt | no problem | 03:56 |
| cprofitt | wanted to help... just had to wait a while to do so | 03:56 |
| charlie-tca | Help is always nice to see. | 03:57 |

| jibel | :/ | 08:12 |
| jibel | hi all, | 11:12 |
| jibel | any tester for kubuntu ? | 11:12 |
| chadadavis | I signed up to test kubuntu on mac, but underestimated how difficult things are on mac. If you need amd64 tests (w/o mac), I might prefer that. What are the priorities at the moment? | 11:14 |
| jibel | chadadavis, it would be good to have few test cases done for Kubuntu Desktop amd64+mac like a live session and an installation. | 11:18 |
| chadadavis | jibel, OK, I'll at least get the basics covered for kubuntu on mac | 11:19 |
| jibel | and kubuntu alternate too | 11:19 |
| jibel | chadadavis, we need to ensure that the image is good and ideally all the mandatory testcases done. | 11:21 |

| pedro_ | Haven't tried that option yet, will do it | 14:48 |

| cjwatson | pedro_: seems like the sort of thing that could result from not giving the VM enough memory? | 15:31 |
| pedro_ | could be, i'm giving 512mb to it , but i'll increase that to test if that's the case | 15:32 |

| jibel | patrickmw, can you help with ltsp on ubuntu alternate ? highvoltage is testing edubuntu | 20:24 |
| jibel | cjwatson, when wubi is run from a usb stick created with usb-creator or with --isopath on the command line with the latest iso as argument, it shouldn't download the iso, right ? | 20:29 |
| skaet_ | jibel re: 728088 is still marked as new, no one confirmed it. Probably why it didn't get the love it deserved this cycle. Can the person that just confirmed it for beta, please go mark it as confirmed and add a note to that affect. It needs to go on our hot list. | 20:30 |

| patdk-wk | bug updated :) | 21:02 |
| jibel | cjwatson, I've found something about wubi, the iso is labeled 'Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Beta 1 amd64 (20110329.1)' and the regex disk_info_re in distro.py doesn't match, hence wubi fails to validate the iso. | 21:03 |
| jibel | cjwatson, and terminate with 'ERROR root: Could not retrieve the required installation files' | 21:03 |
| jibel | cjwatson, relabeling the iso to 'Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Beta amd64 (20110329.1)' should work | 21:03 |
| skaet_otp | ev, ^^ ? | 21:12 |
| cjwatson | bloody wubi | 21:16 |
| cjwatson | a respin to relabel would be very quick | 21:17 |
| cjwatson | skaet_otp: I can do that if you like, after I get my daughter ready for bed | 21:17 |
| skaet_otp | cjwatson, that would be awesome | 21:17 |
| skaet_otp | yes please | 21:17 |
| skaet_otp | cjwatson, can we avoid pulling anything other than the wubi change in, so we don't invalidate the testing so far? | 21:18 |
| cjwatson | skaet_otp: I don't plan to change wubi, actually - for this, I'll just change the ISO volume label as jibel suggests | 21:29 |
| === skaet_otp is now known as skaet | ||
| skaet | cjwatson, that works even better. :) | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | jibel: problem with the screen-reader installs; if the | 21:29 |
| cjwatson | skaet: the natural way to do this would keep the same livefs, and only change packages that are in the top-level ISO filesystem | 21:29 |
| charlie-tca | if the system defaults to classic-gnome, the test case fails completely, since it is written for unity only | 21:30 |
| skaet | cjwaton, thanks for explanation. | 21:32 |
| jibel | charlie-tca, you should have 2 separate test cases then | 21:33 |
| charlie-tca | That's what we are thinking. With the note to switch as needed. | 21:34 |
| cjwatson | so which images have Wubi? Ubuntu and Kubuntu desktop x86, right? | 21:34 |
| cjwatson | which images have Wubi test cases, I mean | 21:34 |
| charlie-tca | and Xubuntu desktop | 21:34 |
| cjwatson | and DVDs ... | 21:34 |
| cjwatson | kubuntu-mobile i386. does anyone actually use Wubi there? | 21:35 |
| cjwatson | Mythbuntu | 21:35 |
| cjwatson | but can somebody check the ISO tracker db for test cases, please? | 21:40 |
| skaet | cjwatson was just looking... | 21:40 |
| skaet | ubuntu desktop amd64 has it, and is the problem I think jibel's seeing. | 21:41 |

| cjwatson | not DVD? good. | 21:46 |
| cjwatson | all those are rebuilding, then. | 21:46 |
| cjwatson | (ISO only, not livefs) | 21:46 |
| cjwatson | jibel: is there a way to bump the version of images without losing all those tests? I mean, ubiquity hasn't changed so the bugs linked there are still valid ... | 21:59 |
| cjwatson | seems like kind of a shame to require re-entering all that | 22:00 |
| jibel | once the images are published, I'll move the results to the new build. | 22:01 |
| cjwatson | ok, cool | 22:01 |
| jibel | basically an sql update | 22:01 |

| chadadavis | Hi, I'm testing kubuntu-amd64+mac (desktop+alternate). I just finished the OEM tests. Do these tests really make sense on a Mac, though? | 22:10 |
| jibel | skaet_afk, ^ | 22:12 |
| jibel | chadadavis, I agree we should have a testsuite for mac and powerpc closer from xubuntu desktop than ubuntu desktop. | 22:13 |
| chadadavis | jibel, I meant regarding that only Apple is legally selling MacBooks. I guess in that respect, the tests are still useful for personal use, however. The test suite itself seems fine, though. But I havent' looked at those from xubuntu | 22:14 |
| cjwatson | there's probably not much point in running the OEM tests there; the ones from amd64 should suffice to test the software | 22:15 |
| chadadavis | cjwatson, I should've thought to ask before testing them. They pass at least. | 22:16 |
| cjwatson | the differences between amd64 and amd64+mac are very minor - the CD is just constructed differently to avoid breaking the Mac firmware | 22:17 |
| cjwatson | it should really be +noefi but Macs were the major use case | 22:17 |
| chadadavis | cjwatson, there is a pretty serious issue (but report being drafted) in the 'resize' test that looks Mac-specific. At least that showed to be worth extra testing. | 22:19 |
| cjwatson | if you mean bug 745800, I'm speculating that that might be the understood and non-Mac-specific but rather hard bug 733240 | 22:24 |
| ubot4` | Launchpad bug 745800 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "grub-install loses OS in extended partition (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/745800 | 22:24 |
| ubot4` | Launchpad bug 733240 in os-prober (Ubuntu) "os-prober fails to find OSes on uncleanly-unmounted filesystems (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/733240 | 22:24 |
| cjwatson | the way to find out is by mounting and unmounting the filesystem it fails to find, then running 'sudo update-grub' again and seeing if the other OS now appears in /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 22:25 |
| cjwatson | posted Xubuntu Desktop amd64/i386 20110330 | 22:27 |
| cjwatson | jibel: ^- that's all the Wubi respins done now | 22:28 |
| cjwatson | jibel: I'll be around on and off for a couple of hours in case it goes wrong again | 22:28 |
| jibel | cjwatson, many thanks. I'm syncing them, and cautiously copying the results from the previous builds. | 22:29 |
| chadadavis | cjwatson, bug 745800 was on amd64, but I will try to mount and unmount them again. The problem I had only on mac was from grub-probe: | 22:30 |

| chadadavis | cannot find a GRUB driver for /dev/sda5 [the new part]. Check your device.map. I'm still collecting the details. | 22:30 |
| cjwatson | chadadavis: find the grub-probe command, add the -vv option to it (make sure there are two vs), post command and output | 22:39 |
| chadadavis | cjwatson, will do, thank you. Just discovered the new builds for kubuntu-desktop-amd64+mac, so I'll grab that and try it. | 22:40 |
| cjwatson | that won't affect this | 22:41 |
| chadadavis | cjwatson, OK, good, I'll go ahead. | 22:42 |
| cjwatson | I mean, if you already have a system that reproduces the bug, you might as well keep going with that | 22:47 |
| jibel | cjwatson, skaet_afk, update done. | 22:50 |
| cjwatson | great, thanks | 22:51 |
| bdmurray | cjwatson: what's the best way to get bug 736743 in your queue? | 23:01 |
| ubot4` | Launchpad bug 736743 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "boot error: sparse file not allowed (affects: 3) (heat: 22)" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/736743 | 23:01 |
| jibel | \o/ wubi phase 1 passed, proceeding to phase 2. Looks good. | 23:05 |

| skaet | jibel, yay! :) | 23:10 |
| jibel | skaet, do you know if smoser is taking care of ec2 testing ? | 23:15 |
| skaet | jibel, carlos is working them I thought, but smoser may be helping as well. why? | 23:16 |
| jibel | skaet, because it's on the incomplete list of Ubuntu images | 23:18 |
| * skaet nods | 23:18 | |
| skaet | hggdh, any update on those remaining images? | 23:18 |
| skaet | hggdh, ^^ | 23:19 |
| cjwatson | bdmurray: why do you think it's RC? | 23:20 |
| bdmurray | cjwatson: I don't think I mentioned RC - rather I wanted someone who knows more about grub than me to look at it | 23:23 |
| cjwatson | oh, it's a dup of an earlier bug where I already commented | 23:25 |
| cjwatson | misled by the title ... | 23:25 |
| stanz | hello...quick question. choosing option to login without password, leaves no chance to pick desktop type. Is this a bug? | 23:25 |
| jibel | cjwatson, wubi installation was too nice to be true, I'm dropped to a grub shell on reboot | 23:26 |
| cjwatson | actually the bug I was thinking of is closed. I'll copy the comment across | 23:26 |
| cjwatson | jibel: do you think I'm likely to be able to reproduce this locally? I hate debugging wubi remotely | 23:26 |
| cjwatson | jibel: was this an install from CD? | 23:26 |
| jibel | I ran wubi.exe --isopath=natty-desktop-amd64.iso | 23:26 |
| jibel | phase 1 and 2 were fine | 23:27 |
| jibel | on restart I select Ubuntu on the ntloader screen and that's all | 23:27 |
| cjwatson | bdmurray: commented | 23:27 |
| cjwatson | jibel: guess I'll have a look ... | 23:28 |
| cjwatson | (I wish my DVD drive would blank DVDs more quickly) | 23:42 |
