| lousygarua | Can I have some mentoring about proper launchpad bug managing? I have encountered a bug that affects 12.04 LTS and also 13.04 as reported and it seems no one is going to fix it. It seems that upstream was not informed at well. The bug: #988290 | 19:52 |
|---|---|---|
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 988290 in xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) "Resolution change with KVM switch on Precise" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/988290 | 19:52 |

| penguin42 | right, so the bug seems to be pretty much agreeing that it's gnome-screensaver and not that X server, it's a regression from the previous release and the other thing is a dupe | 20:02 |
| penguin42 | lousygarua: I've changed it to gnome-screensaver which seemed to be the way the discussion was mostly going | 20:06 |
| lousygarua | penguin42, when do one needs to mark "affects distribution"? | 20:13 |
| lousygarua | and the changing of the package is the "Be bold" part of bug triaging? | 20:13 |
| penguin42 | well tbh I would have kept it as X server except for everyone saying it doesn't happen if they move away from gnome-screensaver | 20:15 |
| penguin42 | lousygarua: ickle seems to be saying it's the fault of the KVM and you can fix it by fiddling with a /sys entry; but given that this is a regression and only happens on some screensavers/desktops I'm not sure what the right thing to do is; but I don't think that's a useful response for the user | 20:20 |
| lousygarua | penguin42, doesn't the gnome project need to be informed as well? | 20:22 |
| penguin42 | lousygarua: Yeh it might be best to open an upstream bug with gnome and see what they say (and see if they bounce it back as being not them!) | 20:23 |
| lousygarua | penguin42, thanks for the help | 20:24 |
| penguin42 | you going to open the gnome one? | 20:25 |
| lousygarua | penguin42, no, i should stop ubuntuing and focus on work for now :) | 20:50 |
| lousygarua | and also the bug does not affect me, i was helping a user on my loco | 20:51 |
| penguin42 | ok, I'll do it | 20:51 |
| penguin42 | added, I'll disappear while waiting for Gnome to flame me | 21:03 |
