| phillw | hi, I'd like a bit of assistance as to where to file a bug against. | 00:04 |
|---|---|---|
| micahg | phillw: that's what the channel is here for :) | 00:12 |
| phillw | I seem to have http://www.codewhirl.com/2012/03/ubuntu-fail-to-login-after-upgrade-to-u12-04-lts-precise-pangolin/ in Quantal. | 00:13 |
| micahg | Bug #1036830 ? | 00:14 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1036830 in lightdm (Ubuntu) "Can't log in unless remove .Xauthority or use gdm" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1036830 | 00:14 |
| phillw | micahg: that could well be the one... | 00:16 |
| phillw | AHHH..... now I see.... it's the ~/.Xauthority. | 00:17 |
| phillw | micahg: So, basically, anyone upgrading who has a separate /home is going to get bitten? | 00:18 |
| micahg | idk | 00:19 |
| * micahg had no problem | 00:19 | |
| phillw | Mine was a clean 12.10 install, maybe upgrade goes okay. | 00:19 |
| micahg | oh? that sounds even worse :() | 00:19 |
| phillw | I have /home on a separate partition. keeps it slightly safe when 'playing'. | 00:20 |
| micahg | oh, so clean install, but old /home | 00:20 |
| phillw | But, yes, I do recall having to reset .Xauth a cycle, or two, back.... | 00:21 |
| phillw | micahg: indeed... there is no place like 127.0.0.1 | 00:21 |
| micahg | hehe | 00:22 |
| phillw | Reet, thanks, I can now go dig out the instructions to reset the .Xauth and it should, if behaves like last year (or 18 months ago), just work. | 00:23 |
| phillw | I'll write it up to a FAQ for the release area, so as you people can point them to it until they actually fix the bug :P | 00:25 |
| micahg | phillw: who is that file owned by? | 00:26 |
| phillw | micahg: let me just get ssh into it | 00:28 |
| phillw | micahg: it is owned by 1000 | 00:32 |
| micahg | phillw: hrm , who's 1000 on your system? | 00:32 |
| phillw | no one, that is why it states the number and not a user. | 00:33 |
| micahg | there's your problem :) | 00:33 |
| micahg | if you're using an old /home, you might have to do that type of cleanup | 00:33 |
| micahg | although, I still have no idea why you'd get a user installed by default not at 1000 | 00:34 |
| phillw | let me go mount / and have a look at the passwd file | 00:36 |
| phillw | hmm, there is no user 1000# | 00:38 |
| phillw | micahg: hang on a mo.... when did ubuntu change the root / admin stuff? | 00:39 |
| phillw | as in dropping user 'root' | 00:40 |
| micahg | well, root's not enabled by default | 00:40 |
| phillw | micahg: it was droppeda couple of cycles ago... I'm mad at myself for forgetting that it was mentioned that an 'upgrade' could cope, but as this was a re-install it had no idea what was going on & played my the 'new' rules. | 00:46 |
| phillw | micahg: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PrecisePangolin/ReleaseNotes/UbuntuDesktop#PrecisePangolin.2BAC8-ReleaseNotes.2BAC8-CommonInfrastructure.Common_Infrastructure | 00:48 |
| phillw | I've slept since then, that is the problem. | 00:48 |
| phillw | well, not problem, just what needs to be fixed on anyone facing the same issue. | 00:49 |
| phillw | micahg: erm, there is a problem, | 01:08 |
| micahg | yes? | 01:09 |
| * micahg 's mind reading device is offline | 01:09 | |
| phillw | 1000 is phillw on ubuntu | 01:14 |

| ex0a | I upgraded from 12.04 to 12.10 (edited source list and dist-upgrade, don't know if that is different than the "ubuntu way") and the new dmraid broke grub | 06:18 |
| ex0a | i was unable to update-grub or grub-install | 06:18 |
| ex0a | eventually i ended up using a boot disk to boot the 3.5 kernel (instead of the old 3.2) and i was able to install and configure grub-pc again | 06:19 |
| ex0a | i haven't rebooted to check but i had 0 issues installing this time | 06:19 |
| ex0a | should i create a bug report for that? | 06:19 |

| Kveras | Hi. I need some advise on how to properly report a bug that has been following me for a good while now. It's probably not a bug that should be posted to the Ubuntu package, but rather upstream, since the problem is present both in Ubuntu, Arch and any other recent distribution that I have tried so far. The help I need is to figure out what package and what upstream project I should report to. The problem is that when dual booting Linux and W | 11:18 |
| Kveras | in 7 there are severe mouse glitches in Linux. The problem is described in greater detail here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/145175/after-reboot-from-windows-mouse-click-does-not-work-properly . The problem is still present in 12.10. Can anyone have a look and help me figuring out where this bug should be posted? | 11:18 |
| civija | hy guys! | 11:20 |
| civija | Can a bug which is marked as 'fixed release' be changed again to something else? | 11:21 |
| civija | I was following one bug and someone marked it as 'fix released' but it isn't fixed | 11:22 |
| civija | a multiple users confirmed that it isn't fixed | 11:22 |
| mitya57 | civija: bug # please. | 11:28 |

| mitya57 | civija: done | 11:33 |
| civija | mitya57: tnx! | 11:33 |
| civija | mitya57: can I ask one more question? | 11:36 |
| mitya57 | please do | 11:36 |
| civija | I have another bug #1037125 and I set it to 'fix committed' | 11:37 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1037125 in linux (Ubuntu) "Bluetooth device AR3012 not working properly" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1037125 | 11:37 |
| civija | because it is changed in kernel upstream | 11:37 |
| civija | and this kernel is not yet released with any ubuntu version | 11:37 |
| civija | is this correct? | 11:37 |
| yofel_ | civija: not quite, the kernel team has it's own bug policies. Please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/KernelTeamBugPolicies#Bug_Triage first before touching kernel bugs | 11:57 |

| emptythevoid | Could someone kindly look at this bug report and see if I've filed it against the correct package? | 13:14 |
| emptythevoid | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1070004 | 13:14 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1070004 in nautilus (Ubuntu) " For applications using simplified save dialogues, selecting a destionation through "Other..." saves to /HOME directory" [Undecided,New] | 13:14 |
| mitya57 | emptythevoid, no, it should be gtk+3.0 or gtk+2.0 depending on what version of gtk is your app using | 13:18 |
| mitya57 | by the way, I remember the same error was occuring for me, so I'll now confirm it | 13:18 |
| emptythevoid | That makes me feel better. Let me see if I can figure out which one DeVeDe uses... | 13:19 |
| emptythevoid | Thanks mate :) | 13:19 |
| mitya57 | I got that with gnome-screenshot which uses gtk+3.0 | 13:20 |
| emptythevoid | Let me give that a go | 13:20 |
| emptythevoid | Screenshot is working okay for me, but it is the same kind of simplified save dialogue box I'm talking about | 13:21 |
| emptythevoid | So if a dependency says python-gtk2, then it's using gtk2, correct? | 13:22 |
| mitya57 | emptythevoid: yes, I've already assigned that to gtk+3.0, but you can add a task using "Also affects distribution" link | 13:23 |
| emptythevoid | Ah, I see where you changed the package for me. Thanks so much. Had a hard time getting help for this. | 13:24 |
| emptythevoid | Thanks again. :) | 13:25 |

| offed | micahg, no enough information to find where the bug is ! Perhaps it is happening when computer is idle for a long time. I am not sure how i can debug (besides logs) when my system completely freeze. But i will try this time :). Should i try with new kernel from kernel.org or ubuntu repos? | 17:52 |
