hramrach_Hello11:14
hramrach_How od I report bugs with Ubuntu mirrors?11:14
hramrach_The page at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs which you get by trying to report an Ubuntu bug advises to run apport or whatever but you dan't need that for Ubuntu mirror bug and there is no way to actually report a bug11:16
yofelI'm not sure either, someone in #ubuntu-mirrors shoudl know11:16
yofel*should know11:17
jfiHello, is it allowed for an upstream author to directly flag a bug as 'confirmed' in order to speedup the resolution?11:31
jfiit concerns this packaging "bug": bug #77841511:32

micahgjfi: you just need to make sure there's a valid e-maill address in the changelog and subscribe ubuntu-sponsors, you can set it to confirmed at that point yourself to show it's ready for sponsorship11:36
micahgjfi: also, get rid of the extra newline at the end of debian/control11:37
jfimicahg, argh yes, the new changelog is wrong, I am going to fix it11:38
jfimicahg, thx for the information11:38
jfimicahg, fixed: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/71191903/778415.debdiff11:44
micahgjfi: you might want to say why you're adding that in the changelog11:46
micahgjfi: and this should probably move to #ubuntu-devel :)11:47
jfijfi: ok, I will explanation in changelog. Sorry to be out of topic on this channel.11:49

tetsuo55Is anyone working on the wifi regression(s) in 11.04?18:42
tetsuo55seems to span over several brands of wifi cards, so it appears to be the network manager or something18:42
tetsuo55symtoms are: Signal generally weaker than with 10.10/windows and once it drops below a certain level, it will start dropping so many packadges that at some point it completely loses the connection18:43
tetsuo55in these same locations 10.10/windows will stay connected at good speeds for days18:43
tetsuo55my wireshark logs on 11.04 look more black than green18:44
tetsuo55:(18:44
=== Ursinha is now known as EvilUrsinha
hggdhtetsuo55: please open a bug on it -- do not assume that this is generic; may be related to a specific wireless card/brand/firmware level18:48
hggdhtetsuo55: for example, my wireless works perfectly18:49
EvilUrsinhatetsuo55, and mine doesn't because of an specific driver change I know it's a regression for that hardware (there's an open bug for that)18:49

JoshuaLIs bug #778653 an unity bug or should it be marked as affecting Ayatana Design?19:22
ubot4Launchpad bug 778653 in unity (Ubuntu) "Fullscreen firefox and xchat conflicts (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/77865319:22
tetsuo55Ursinha-lunch: what hardware do you have?19:26
tetsuo55hggdh: do you have a strong or weak signal? the bug only plays out when the signal is weak19:26
tetsuo55hggdh:  my wireless works fine too, if i stay in my office, but as soon as i walk to the other room, it starts acting up19:27
tetsuo55also what is the best way to open a bug so my hardware gets added to it?19:28
yofelfile it with 'ubuntu-bug linux'19:29
tetsuo55there are so many open bugs for the 11.04 wifi regression that i'm not sure which one is like mine19:29
tetsuo55but that wont add hardware specs will it?19:29
yofelno one is, the kernel team wants seperate reports for everyone19:29
tetsuo55don't i need to use apport for it19:29
yofelubuntu-bug *is* apport19:29
tetsuo55oh19:30
tetsuo55ok so i run that from terminal19:30
yofelwell, you can use apport-bug too, ubuntu-bug is an alias for that19:30
tetsuo55running19:30
tetsuo55might as well keep going19:34
tetsuo55how should i report that " when switching from just the laptop screen, to just the external monitor, the extra resolution will be black, and alghough the mouse will go over it, the windows hide under it19:34
tetsuo55ok reported wifi regression here https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/77867119:35

tetsuo55i also have a crash bugs with unity that dont trigger apport19:38
yofeldo you have apport actually enabled?19:40
tetsuo55yes19:45
tetsuo55i changed the line from 0 to 119:45
tetsuo55and it catches other crashes like flash player19:51
tetsuo55doublechecked, its set to 119:52

yofelthey don't like you adding infors to a bug unless you have the *exact* same hardware, firmware revision on the chips, bios rev, etc.19:58

iktwhere would be best to file a feature request for ubuntu to include the ability to downgrade an install?20:33
hggdhikt: downgrade in what sense -- version, or package?20:34
iktcomplete version20:34
iktfor example from 11.04 to 10.1020:34
iktI mean an ideal state would be in a VM with snapshotting20:35
iktbut by itself it sounds fairly impossible20:35
iktit would require backing up the entire computer maybe to a single tar? and then if you went back unrolling it out20:36
hggdhindeed... I am not sure this is generically possible. You cannot really tar up the whole install and then untar it -- it would conflict with the currently-running system, and all bets are then off20:36
tetsuo55EvilUrsinha: ok different from mine20:37
hggdhthis is doable with an overlay filesystem20:37

ubot4Launchpad bug 775317 in ubuntu "Cannot down grade away from natty (affects: 1) (heat: 8)" [Undecided,New]20:38
iktI can't think where to put :s20:38
hggdhikt: perhaps http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/20:38
iktah yes, good idea20:39
yofelwell, this *is* already planned20:43
yofelnot before btrfs becomes stable though20:43
hggdhI did not know it was already planned20:45
hggdhgood to know, though :-)20:45
yofelwell, not sure about full upgrade backups, but I know people talked about this during natty20:45
yofelnatty's ubiquity already makes a root and home subvolume if you install on btrfs which you need for upgrade snapthots20:45
arandyofel: Is it planned as in has a blueprint, or as in "hey, that'd be cool if someone does it.."20:46
yofelarand: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/packageselection-foundations-n-btrfs-support there are items for apt snapshotting20:47
arandyofel: Actually, maverick's layout would work as well for snapshotting, though the ability to roll back / without doing the same with your home has its perks ;)20:47
yofelwell, true, that's why we have a seperate root subvolume now20:48
yofelikt: ^20:48
iktnice :D20:50

txomonoki23:30
txomonyofel, how can I mark it as a previously fixed bug?23:33
yofeltxomon: use a regression tag https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Tags#Regression%20specific23:34
txomonand which one should I use for kernel one?23:35
txomonregression-update?23:35
yofelwhen was the last time it worked?23:36
yofelregression-release would be: worked in maverick, broke in natty. -updates is worked in natty and an update broke it, -proposed is for testing packages from <release>-proposed23:37
