[10:34] <njin> hello fellows, why LP is tagging with unity 2d when 3d is running? bug 791125
[10:34] <ubot4`> Launchpad bug 791125 in compiz (Ubuntu) "default backgroung cause problems to compiz (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/791125
[10:37] <njin> is LP or apport that create the tags?
[10:37] <seb128> njin, it's apport and it's tagging unity-2d when unity-2d is installed
[10:38] <njin> seb128:thanks
[11:21] <brendand> is ubuntu-bug broken for everyone else in oneiric?
[11:22] <brendand> always getting 'not a valid ubuntu package'
[11:22] <brendand> tried compiz and unity so far
[11:26] <jibel> brendand, works fine here.
[11:27] <brendand> jibel - strange
[11:27] <jibel> brendand, did you pull something from a ppa ?
[11:28] <brendand> jibel - no, this is a pure fresh oneiric install
[11:29] <jibel> uhoh, I'll try in a few minutes from a fresh install
[11:29] <brendand> jibel - if you have an install there, can you try something for me, to confirm a bug?
[11:30] <brendand> jibel - maximize a window, then try double-clicking the top bar to restore it
[11:30] <jibel> brendand, k
[11:36] <brendand> jibel - well, i got the info up anyway by filing a bug and running apport-collect
[11:38] <jibel> brendand, works with unity but not unity 2d
[11:40] <brendand> jibel - how to check if i'm running 2d?
[11:42] <jibel> brendand, unity-2d-panel is running
[11:43] <brendand> jibel - okay, so unity-2d issue then
[11:44] <brendand> jibel - be so kind as to confirm my bug 791157 :)

[12:06] <yofel> brendand: apport uses the apt cache for the package validation, what does apt-cache policy say for those packages?
[12:50] <brendand> yofel - i'll have to reboot
[12:50] <yofel> k
[12:52] <evfool> hi all, could anyone confirm that gksu does only request the password once, and does not show an error message and request it three times if the wrong password has been entered on first try
[12:55] <charlie-tca> That's been a bug for a long time now
[12:56] <charlie-tca> evfool: that is reported, but I will have to search a while to find it
[12:56] <evfool> I have reported that
[12:57] <evfool> and I want to duplicate the other ones reported for synaptic and update-manager
[12:57] <charlie-tca> new or a pretty old bug
[12:57] <evfool> bug 773284
[12:57] <ubot4`> Launchpad bug 773284 in gksu (Ubuntu) "gksu behavior on bad password (affects: 22) (dups: 11) (heat: 118)" [Medium,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/773284
[12:58] <mvo> evfool: is that new in oneiric? or also in natty?
[12:58] <charlie-tca> it's been reported over a year ago
[12:58] <evfool> also in natty
[12:58] <evfool> and even earlier
[12:59] <evfool> mvo: it seems to be there since lucid, as there is an update-manager bug reported in may of 2010
[12:59] <seb128> there was bug #298217
[12:59] <ubot4`> Launchpad bug 298217 in libgksu (Debian) (and 6 other projects) "no second attempt and no feedback when wrong password entered (affects: 62) (dups: 13) (heat: 310)" [Unknown,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/298217
[13:00] <seb128> but it has been closed
[13:01] <charlie-tca> It's easy to verify, just open Synaptic Package Manager and enter the wrong password
[13:03] <evfool> the old one has been closed as it was fixed in libgksu, but now it's in the gksu package, which says it's replacing libgksu0
[13:17] <evfool> I don't understand how this has been missed, as pitti 's fix for the old bug should be in natty and it's not, and checking the libgksu code for oneiric, it's not in there neither
[13:20] <seb128> gksudo is not used a lot nowadays and users tend to enter their password rights
[13:20] <seb128> so it's easy to not be bothered about it
[13:20] <hggdh> evfool, pong
[13:21] <evfool> seb128: not used a lot? synaptic, update-manager use it, and update-manager is set to run at least weekly
[13:21] <evfool> hggdh: I just wanted to ask what do I have to do to renew my expiring bug control membership
[13:21] <chrisccoulson> update-manager doesn't use it anymore, and hasn't done since last cycle
[13:21] <seb128> evfool, update-manager uses aptdaemon which doesn't use gksudo no
[13:22] <hggdh> evfool, what you just did ;-)
[13:22] <hggdh> give me a sec
[13:22] <seb128> only synaptic and software-properties still use gksudo in oneiric and they are not things you use often
[13:24] <hggdh> evfool, done
[13:25] <evfool> hggdh: thanks
[13:26] <evfool> seb128: thanks, I must have missed that: update-manager uses gksu for displaying software-properties and partial upgrades, and synaptic is really getting obsolete
[13:27] <seb128> in any case it's still a bug, that was just a reply to your question on how that was not raised as an issue
[13:27] <seb128> someone should reapply the patch and ask for sponsoring
[13:27] <seb128> seems the easiest way to get it back in
[13:27] <evfool> when it has been in lucid-proposed, shouldn't it be in later releases?
[13:28] <evfool> yep, I'll try to do that
[13:30] <seb128> evfool, it should, but it might have been not applied to the next series at the same time it was sru-ed or it might have been dropped by error in a merge on debian
[13:30] <evfool> ok
[13:34] <seb128> evfool, seems like the patchs is still in the source
[13:35] <evfool> seb128: in the source of libgksu?
[13:35] <seb128> yes
[13:36] <seb128> but maybe the sudo prompt changed since and it needs to be updated for the new wording
[13:36] <seb128> or something similar
[13:37] <evfool> yes, it's in the patches, I've missed that
[13:37] <evfool> the only change seems to be a newline, which would be enough the break the check

[20:10] <johanbr> Hi. Could a kind soul with access please revert the status for launchpad bug 582809 back to Triaged? (for linux(Ubuntu))

[20:10] <johanbr> I'm not sure why it was marked fixed in the first place - and it's clearly not correct
[20:11] <bcurtiswx> johanbr, which comment does it show as being marked fix released ?
[20:12] <johanbr> bcurtiswx, unnumbered changed between comments 158 and 159
[20:12] <johanbr> *unnumbered change
[20:13] <bcurtiswx> johanbr, done :)

[21:55] <dart> I think a recent natty update to xorg has created some problems in my system...Where do i report this? Fix to this bug : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg-server/+bug/774938
[21:55] <ubot4`> Launchpad bug 774938 in xorg-server (Ubuntu Natty) (and 1 other project) "Erratic cursor movement when using "Coordinate Transformation Matrix" (affects: 2) (heat: 144)" [Undecided,Fix released]
[21:58] <dart> The bug fixes some erratic pointer behaviour for rotated screens. But after I installed this update on my system, the pointer is behaving really weird and accuracy have dropped.
[22:47] <micahg> dart: if you think it was the xorg update, you can file a bug: ubuntu-bug xorg and mention the bug you think is causing the issue in it
