Noskcajyour keyboard problem, i sometimes have that, usually accompanied by no keyboard at all and what looks like a compiz crash. balloons i only do it as a reminder20:19
balloonsyes, it is good to file20:19
letozaf_Noskcaj, is a war machine, I mean on bugs :-D20:20
balloonsindeed!20:26
letozaf_so for the armhf+omap4 image should I report a bug ?20:27
balloonsNoskcaj, so I'm updating the live session testcase finally haha20:27
balloonsI know we were talking a little about it before xmas20:27
balloonsthe first part is to add instructions for persistence that make sense20:27
balloonsyou also wanted to create files, etc, to check the persistence20:28
Noskcajballoons, i have no part in live session. i don't think that was me20:28
balloonsohh. gotcha20:30
Noskcajwhile you we away there were other testcases that need updating i did find20:30
balloonsdid you add them to the list? I should probably archive our old work now20:30
balloonshttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/TestcaseUpdates20:30
Noskcajballoons, note the very bottom, i'm not sure about the ppc one as we might close ppc down and i'm not sure ppc server i possible20:31
Noskcajand before i forget, can someone run an ubuntu daily install, and note when the (x) is at the top and when its not20:33
balloonsthe 'x'?20:33
Noskcajyes20:33
Noskcajmy netboot re-write is http://pad.ubuntu.com/wfjvrAzFq2, my oem re-write is http://pad.ubuntu.com/hROELLDhue20:34
Noskcajthe oem needs kubuntu only updates, could we get scott to do that?20:35
balloonsNoskcaj, yes ask scottk20:36
Noskcaji have pinged him20:38
Noskcajphillw, can you try getting the -pwerpc guys to follow gilir's orders, i gave up an my mac can't boot usb20:39
phillwNoskcaj: I cannot order to order people,20:44
Noskcajphillw, "orders:20:45
Noskcaj* "orders"20:45
balloonslol20:46
balloonswell, testing this failed open on raring20:46
balloonsusb disk creator blew up trying to start20:46
Noskcajlol20:47
letozaf_I had quite a lot of problems with usb disk creator today20:47
letozaf_had to use unetboot20:47
letozaf_:(20:47
phillwballoons: Ì cannot log a critical bug with Chromium, the reporting mechanism from Chromium fails and it needs to be reported upstream. Is michag or Chad back from their break?20:47
balloonsletozaf_, btw, you don't need to use unetboot20:47
balloonsyou can simply copy the image straight to usb20:48
letozaf_with dd ?20:48
balloonsyes20:48
balloonsdd if=myiso.iso of=/dev/sdb20:48
letozaf_oh! never thought of this :) great20:48
balloonsyea, really slick20:48
phillwNoskcaj: we have to run down problems in severity... a none working browser is pretty sad... one VM system not working against another is a another bad one.....20:48
balloonsbeen that way since hmm 10.04?20:48
balloonsnot sure20:48
phillwNoskcaj: for your issue, do you have the ability to change screen resolutuion on the VM?20:49
balloonsNoskcaj, so this 'x' thing20:49
balloonswhat all do you mean?20:49
balloonsI'm in the installer now20:49
Noskcajphillw, is there anything that does work for you? balloons, it seems to come and go throughout the installer20:49
balloonsk, I20:50
balloonsi'll watch20:50
balloonsyep, it's gone20:50
balloonsok, you got a bug for this?20:50
Noskcajballoons, no, if you could.20:51
ScottK\o20:51
balloonsgonna check using 'try ubuntu' then install20:51
balloonssee if it changes anything20:51
NoskcajScottK, http://pad.ubuntu.com/hROELLDhue is my work so-far, if you could finish it?20:51
balloonshey ScottK20:51
Noskcajballoons, good idea20:51
phillwNoskcaj: I got tied up on kvm bug, for which we have a workaround, I cannot test every testing system against all VM systems. I am pleased to see that the testdrive guys are also looking into your issues.... You better make sure the bug reports are there for them :D20:51
Noskcajphillw, yep, everything thats actually a bug is one, everything else is in the email20:52
phillwNoskcaj: they need bug reports for each... the bug20:52
phillw& wish lists20:52
Noskcajphillw, ok, i will make them now20:52
ScottKNoskcaj: I don't have time to write the test case, but I can get it into the system if someone does.20:52
phillwNoskcaj: you have to give the devs bug's to close, else their work does not count :D20:53
Noskcajphillw, ok.20:54
NoskcajScottK, i was hoping you would at least know what to do for it. balloons, phillw or myself could upload it anyway. i guess i will try and finish it20:54
ScottKSorry.  Quite busy with $work ATM.20:55
Noskcajok20:56
balloonsNoskcaj, hmm.. actually I think it's ok20:56
Noskcajballoons, what is?20:57
balloonsso, what's happening is that it doesn't want you to killl the installer once you start making disk changes20:57
balloonsthat's what's happening20:57
Noskcajoh, never mind then. but it has the x at the restart prompt, i wonder what happens if its clicked20:58
balloonshehe20:58
balloonswell, if it's only the installer it would close20:58
Noskcajok20:58
Noskcajon another unrelated topic, how can i get ubuntu on a hiapad hi802 / zealz gk802?20:59
balloonsNoskcaj, if googling doesn't present some images / instruction my guess is to start with the basic core image21:03
phillwballoons: if you just want to log ##phillw - it's PPC stuff which may be useful when I bring Noskcaj up to speed on a request he has made21:03
balloonsor arm image, depending21:05
balloonswhat instructions set does it support?21:05
balloonsbtw -- asking on #ubuntu-arm may help21:05
Noskcajballoons, i did, they dodged the question21:06
balloonsahh, well, that might be the asnwer21:09
balloonsheh21:09
balloonssee what happens when you get it21:09
letozaf_I wanted to carry out the Ubuntuone tests, but the testcase: ubuntuone-client/ubo-001 that checks that the Ubuntuone client can be installed must be "old" I mean on a Raring fresh install it's already installed21:16
letozaf_maybe the testcase should be updated21:17
Noskcajballoons, am i ok to upload the slightly edited oem install?21:17
balloonsahh I see it21:18
balloonsyes, go ahead21:18
balloonserr well21:19

dkesselso i just write: "Confirmed on current package versions" ? or is "confirming" something different?22:03
dkesselballoons: is writing a comment with "Confirmed on current package versions" enough as confirmation?22:06
balloonsdkessel, confirming is to set the status to confirmed22:06
balloonsit means someone besides the original poster confirm the issue22:06
balloonsmake sense?22:06

TheLordOfTimedkessel, you did fine btw.22:11
TheLordOfTimeyour responding says "It also affects here, I can confirm it" works.22:11
TheLordOfTimeusually just the initial confirmation is all :P22:11
dkesselphew :)22:11
TheLordOfTimebut QA runs a tad differently than what i normally see as bug triaging, which is why i rarely touch $current_dev bugs :P22:11
TheLordOfTimeunless i'm the one who is working on them (usually happens in cases of certain server packages)22:12

balloonswe's cause trouble22:12
TheLordOfTime:P22:12

TheLordOfTimeballoons, hey, at least you guys find the bugs in packages that are at least coded semi-decently...22:13
balloonswhat command?22:13
dkesselTheLordOfTime, what server packages would that be to cause you some work? ;)22:13
TheLordOfTimeat least you guys don't have to maintain php5 :P22:13
TheLordOfTimedkessel, not directly under server team purview but... nginx primarily, and php5-fpm related things.22:13

TheLordOfTimeballoons, dkessel: the one thing Bug Squad, and particularly me, don't like, is seeing a thousand people post "I can confirm this" or "This happens to me."22:19
TheLordOfTimetwo or three confirming things is okayish though ;022:19

TheLordOfTimeme, if i care about a bug, i just subscribe to the bug :P22:20
TheLordOfTimealthough i'm already subscribed to the packages i primarily work with :P22:20
Noskcajthe series name you input changes nothing, at least in Vbox22:22
balloonsNoskcaj, what do you mean22:29
balloonsI should do an oem install again.. haven't done one yet this cycle22:29
balloonsheh22:29
TheLordOfTimewhoo, Lubuntu's running smoothly in VM, compared to Ubuntu22:29
TheLordOfTimeUnity's a resource hog for VM testing of things :P22:30
phillwTheLordOfTime: the reason you hate that is because it raises the bug heat and actually makes someone pull their finger out and have a look at it :P22:30
TheLordOfTimephillw, actually, i don't like it because it causes autoconfirms and then we have to actually ask for apport information or more info for when there's not enough22:30
TheLordOfTimeor they file against the wrong package22:30
TheLordOfTimeand need some talking to.22:30
TheLordOfTimeoh, and my FAVORITE thing for bug workarounds that I just absolutely want to slap people for: "Manually downgrade the libraries to a prior release's version!"22:31
TheLordOfTimei aplogize for the ranting, i should be ranting in a secret channel soemwhere :P22:31
