Christopher, I know how to change bug status, but I was unsure how bugs should be handled that appear fixed in later releases of Ubuntu: - If a bug was reported against a non-LTS release of Ubuntu, and appears fixed in a later release, it should be closed (I take that from your response). Meaning, if someone else is still on that older release, she is left without a fix, but is expected to update? - If a bug was reported against an LTS release of Ubuntu, and appears fixed in a later non-LTS release, should it be fixed, too? (I believe no, unless the fix is backported to the LTS release -- is that so?) - If a bug was reported against an LTS release of Ubuntu, and appears fixed a later LTS release, it shoud be fixed (and users expected to upgrade)?
I.e., the objective is not to fix bugs in the release they appear, but in this or any later release of the same type? Is this correct? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-nouveau in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1090732 Title: corrupted transparency with nouveau driver on Thinkpad T61 Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: On my Thinkpad T61, using quetzal's nouveau X driver, I get corrupted display when transparencies are shown, such as in the unity dash.
