=== bladernr_ is now known as bladernr_afk [12:05] hey everyone! im new to ubuntu testing and by chance i have some spare time now for getting into it. could do some iso-testing (laptop), or (almost) anything else. would you recommend to go for the beta images or some daily builds? thanks! [12:12] hi jolivien which ever you prefer! also if you have a laptop you could help out with https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Laptop/Procedures [12:18] thanks! === _salem is now known as salem_ === bladernr_afk is now known as bladernr_ === yofel_ is now known as yofel === x4 is now known as init === init is now known as x4 === x4 is now known as init === raju is now known as raju-away [14:23] is ubuntu-qa-tools still packaged? how do I install it in precise, or do I need to just pull the branch from LP? [14:29] jibel, are we automatically reporting any test results to the ISO tracker yet? [14:30] jamespage, not for ubuntu. stgraber is doing it for upgrade testing of ubuntu flavors [14:30] bladernr_, ubuntu-qa-tools is not packaged in Precise [14:30] jibel, one for next release then :-) [14:30] jibel: ahhh... that woud explain why I can't find it anymore :) [14:30] jamespage, I think so :) [14:31] bladernr_, https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-server-iso-testing-dev/+archive/dev [14:31] we retained a very old version to support ISO testing. [14:31] * jamespage goes to POSTPONE some work items [14:32] jamespage: ahhh thanks. I did a fresh install of Precise rather than an upgrade and this is one of the things I was missing. [14:34] Hi all! === bladernr_ is now known as bladernr_afk === lool- is now known as lool === init is now known as x4 === bladernr_afk is now known as bladernr_ === salem_ is now known as _salem [21:09] hi [21:09] Aloha iGadget [21:10] just tried booting the precise beta 2 cd on my pavilion zv6000 [21:10] and it failed :( [21:10] already filed a bug about it, but I didn't know which package to file it under [21:11] #972823 [21:14] can anyone help me in the right direction? [21:14] bug #972823 [21:14] grr... where's ubottu when you need it. [21:16] iGadget: Looks like linux-firmware, if that is indeed the cause for the halting. [21:17] it's never been a problem in the past with any previous ubuntu release [21:17] can't imagine why that would cause the boot process to freeze? [21:18] but then again... bugs can pop up anywhere of course :) [21:18] So shall I change the bug to point it at linux-firmware? [21:19] iGadget: The reason _seems_ to be quite obvious, but of course I'm not sure whether the driver has dropped from the package, or what other causes could there be. [21:20] astraljava: well in all previous ubuntu releases the firmware wasn't part of the package either as far as I can remember, always had to do some manual tweaking before my wireless started working [21:21] iGadget: Ok, so then maybe something else is blocking the boot. Can you hit Ctrl+Alt+F[1|4] when it halts, and take another pic of what it says there? [21:22] nope, already tried that. It's totally frozen when this happens [21:22] I always forget which Fx button actually shows you the console screen. [21:22] OK. [21:22] but... let me double check that [21:23] just too bad the zv6000 cannot boot from usb [21:24] booting from the CD takes ages [21:24] Yeah. [21:26] hmmm... I can switch with Alt+F1 while it's booting, but there's nothing but a blinking cursor there until the (same) error appears [21:26] and then indeed as I mentioned before - a complete freeze [21:37] astraljava: I've updated the bug. Anything else I can try? [21:46] iGadget: I don't know, but maybe someone who triages the bug has more ideas, so I'm sure it'll progress from there. Thanks for reporting the issue! [21:46] np [21:46] thanks for your assistance :) [21:47] Hopefully I did more that than damage. :) [21:47] of course you did :D [21:47] now onto the next pack of bugs... as soon as I find the time [21:48] just out of curiosity - do you ever use the presenter console in LO? [21:49] I don't even know what that is, but probably wasn't directed to me. Good luck with the other bugs. :) [21:50] no it wasn't... it's been assigned to Björn [21:50] bug #824466 [21:51] has been an issue since 11.04 [21:51] and I'm afraid it will not be fixed in 12.04 either [21:52] anyway, thanks for your help. I've got to get to bed now [21:52] bye!
