oscalationhey greg-g  on a side note. I would really like to get away from gmail due to .. privacy concerns. Off topic i know but relevant to the prior discussion. I can archive my messages... but after 6-8 months gmail can hand them over to people without a warrant00:36
oscalationwould much rather use a email service that protects my privacy00:37
oscalationok so i requested to join the ubuntu bugs mentor program, is that all i do is request to join the group01:18
oscalationor do i need to email someone01:18
micahgoscalation: FYI, you don't need to subscribe to ubuntu-bugs to be part of the bugsquad01:42
oscalation    micahg not sure if i misunderstood but, im trying to apply for a mentor01:50
micahgoscalation: you don't need to subscribe to the ubuntu-bugs list for that either, the ubuntu-bugs list is just a mailing list that aggregates all the public bugs, it's actually not suggested to subscribe02:14

jmburgess1I have a question.  It seems like bug 784379 already has a patch in the upstream bug and is fixed in a later version.... What should I mark it as?21:47
ubot4Launchpad bug 784379 in gtk2-engines-oxygen (Ubuntu) "Oxygen-gtk style fails to load with Emacs (affects: 5) (heat: 60)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/78437921:47
charlie-tcajmburgess1: is the fix in Ubuntu yet?21:54
jmburgess1Also I think bug 813153 can be traiged as Medium and bug 815867 can be triaged as medium as well.  I'm a new bug triager..so I could be wrong21:55

charlie-tcaYou didn't answer my question?21:55
jmburgess1charlie-tca: sorry, yeah you are right it's updated in Oneric21:56
charlie-tcaIt is in oneiric, and they are requesting a backport to natty. It can confirmed21:57
micahghuh?21:57
jmburgess1charlie-tca: ok I marked it as confirmed and I'll put a comment in that says it's updated in oneiric, anything else I should do?21:58
micahgif the bugs is fixed in oneiric, it's fix released, if it's a full backport, a task against the appropriate -backports project should be added or a new bug filed against that project, if a cherry pick fix is planned for the previous release, a bug control member can nominate it for a previous release21:59
charlie-tcamicahg: the bug itself requests the backport specifically22:00
* micahg looks22:00
charlie-tcajmburgess1: bug 813153 stays in confirmed status. Brad Figg is a kernel team developer22:00
ubot4Launchpad bug 813153 in linux (Ubuntu) "frozen screen after suspension (affects: 2) (heat: 14)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/81315322:00
micahgcharlie-tca: are we talking about the gtk engine bug?22:01
charlie-tcajmburgess1: same with the other one. If the bug report is against linux, and brad confirmed it, we leave it alone22:01
jmburgess1charlie-tca: Ok didn't know that22:02
micahgcharlie-tca: that "backport" is actually asking for an SRU22:02
charlie-tcabug 813153 ?22:02

charlie-tcayeah, that one22:03
jmburgess1yeah that one sorry for the confusion22:03
charlie-tcaWhy is it fixed released if it is requessting the backport or sru?22:03
micahgso, we can nominate for natty if it's worth an SRU22:03
charlie-tcaoh22:03
charlie-tcaI get it, now22:03
micahgcharlie-tca: alternative is invalid, a task needs to be opened for natty or natty-backports :)22:03
charlie-tcayeah, my brain is foggy22:04
xteejxHey guys22:04
micahgcharlie-tca: yeah, I heard you had a long meeting this afternoon :)22:04
charlie-tcahm, looks "ugly"? that doesn't seem worth a sru22:05
xteejxbug 816145, Canonical are quick today, it's a friends bug report (my old laptop), had the problem for bloody ages, think its NetworkManager, any suggestions other that going through DebuggingNetworkManager on the wiki?22:05
ubot4Launchpad bug 816145 in linux (Ubuntu) "Atheros AR5001 wireless card "wireless is disabled by hardware switch" (affects: 4) (dups: 1) (heat: 16)" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/81614522:05
micahgcharlie-tca: it's mostly indentation changes, it's really a few line fix22:08
charlie-tcaso, nominate it for natty?22:08
micahgcharlie-tca: yeah, I think so22:08
micahgneeds someone to do it though :)22:08
* xteejx hides22:08
micahghi xteejx :)22:09
xteejxmicahg: Hey hey :)22:09
charlie-tcadone, micahg22:09
xteejxHey charlie-tca22:09
charlie-tcaI can nominate them22:09
charlie-tcalooking at it, xteejx22:09
xteejxno prob22:09
xteejxI've been gone for too long methinks, should be getting back into bug stuff full-time soon :)22:10
charlie-tcaxteejx: any chance of having the latest kernel tested?22:10
charlie-tcano need to go through all the debugging stuff, just needs to test the kernel22:10
xteejxcharlie-tca: I very much doubt it's the kernel, I'm guessing its not as low level as that, and that its net-man or wpa_supplicant, something like that22:11
xteejxI'll grab the latest mainline anyway, it might work22:11
charlie-tcaIt's filed against linux, though. The kernel should be able to manipulate the switch, I think22:12
charlie-tcaokay, and then mark the bug that it was done. Then we can move to triaged22:12
xteejxNo prob, I will work through net-man stuff after the mainline test just to rule it out22:13
charlie-tcaThanks22:13
xteejxHopefully it's something simple, although I suspect it really isn't...it's my old lappy and it was a bugger before (part of the reason I gave it away but don't tell anyone :P )22:14
xteejxcharlie-tca: btw thanks :)22:14
charlie-tcanp22:14
xteejxquick question...how do I find if its a 32 or 64 bit install?22:18
yofeluname -m22:19
* micahg should've told him to comment when changing bug statuses22:19
xteejxyofel: Brilliant thanks :)22:19
xteejxIs mainline v3.0-rc7-oneiric ok to test with a kernel bug in natty?22:21
xteejx*BUMP* :)22:23
charlie-tcaxteejx: looks right according to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds22:28
xteejxHmmm, I may have narrowed it down. NetworkManager may not be the problem, but rather the kernel itself. It's not receiving keypress events through udev or acpi for the hardware button for the wifi on/off switch23:29
xteejxWould that be the kernel itself if it was the button not sending any events (the button does work)23:29
xteejx?23:29
xteejxcharlie-tca: You around?23:30
charlie-tcayup23:31
charlie-tcasounds like the kernel23:32
xteejxHey23:32
charlie-tcaHello23:32
xteejxThough as much after messing around with it :(23:32
xteejxwould it be a real problem if they don't have the laptop itself? It sounds like quite a mission getting one button working if they don't have the machine :S23:33
charlie-tcaNot always. Sometimes they can make things happen with enough logs and information23:34
charlie-tcaI think the button is proprietary, but I am not sure23:34
xteejxHmm I hope so,am getting it in the ear lol23:34
charlie-tcaSorry23:34
xteejxyeah it's an HP jobby23:34
xteejxcharlie-tca: Don't be sorry, I'm a triager and the local PC "expert" I'm used to it hehe23:35
charlie-tcaIt can still be depressing at times23:35
xteejxNahhh, I find the words "shut the hell up, I'll get round to it" helpful ;)23:36
charlie-tcaheh23:36
charlie-tcathat too23:36
xteejxDamn kernel bugzilla "Error: Host 'demeter1.sql.kernel.bak' is blocked because of many connection errors" grrr!23:36
xteejxWould this bug be a good candidate to upstream as it is?23:36
charlie-tcaThat I do not know. I usually just triage them, and let the kernel decide what goes upstream23:38
xteejxHmmm...23:38
xteejxAre there any kernel triagers in?23:38
charlie-tcanope, not here23:39
charlie-tcatry #ubuntu-kernel, maybe23:39
charlie-tcagive them the bug number and ask if it should go upstream?23:39
xteejxCool thanks charlie :)23:40
charlie-tcayou are welcome23:40
* xteejx missed the community spirit :)23:40
