Kernel Bug Day Tuesday, February 1, 2011
Hi Folks! I'd like to announce that the next kernel bug day will be next Tuesday. Our focus will be on triaging bugs in the new status and getting them to the next state or requesting more information for them to move further toward closure. I look forward to seeing all of you there. I will be available in all of the usual places: IRC[0], e-mail, etc. so feel free to chat with me if you have questions. I'll be blogging this to the Kernel Team's voices page[1] as well, so there may be updated information available there. Thanks for all of your help! ~JFo [0] #kernel-team on FreeNode [1] http://voices.canonical.com/kernelteam/ -- Ubuntu-qa mailing list Ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-qa

Our goal is to close out all of the old bugs and work through the bugs that are relevant from an SRU or development standpoint. One major aspect of this effort will be to correctly identify and remove the indicator on those bugs that do not have valid patches. It seems I incorrectly identified this for bugs with patches (one of my work items for today) The correct focus should be the bugs tagged regression-update as identified in my previous e-mail on the subject as well as the bug day page on the wiki. Apologies for any confusion. :-) ~JFo I'll be available in #ubuntu-bugs and #ubuntu-kernel on the Freenode IRC server if there are any questions. :-) Thanks! ~JFo -- Ubuntu-qa mailing list Ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-qa
Kernel Bug Day Tuesday, 7 December, 2010
Folks, It's time for another Kernel Bug Day. We'll be focusing on the Bugs tagged as regression-update [1]. There are currently 118 of these bugs with the vast majority needing tobe tested against the current release as well as the version under development. Any of you who would like to get a head start on triagingthes bugs, please feel free to do so. As usual, the resources needed to triage these bugs appropriately are located on the ubuntu wiki: General Triaging [2], Kernel Specific triage topics [3] and the Kernel Tagging page [4]. I'll be putting more information concerning this bug day up on the wiki [5] so check it often. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Thanks! ~JFo [1]https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bugs?field.tag=regression-updatefield.tags_combinator=ALL [2]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToTriage [3]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BugTriage [4]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Tagging [5]https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/BugTriage/BugDay -- Ubuntu-qa mailing list Ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-qa
Kernel Community Bug Day Tuesday 5 October 2010
Kernel Community Bug Day Tuesday 5 October 2010 Hi Folks! The Kernel Team is pleased to announce our next bug day for Tuesday the 5th of October.[0] We will be addressing bugs in the New state that have been incorrectly set to New whether by well-meaning bug reporters or individuals incorrectly reopening a previously expired bug to the new status. In some cases the proper state is Triaged or confirmed. We will be attempting to correct the status mismatches as well as properly tagging bugs with the appropriate subsystems.[1] All triagers are welcome to assist us on this day. Any questions as to the state of a bug or any general questions can be directed to me in the #ubuntu-kernel channel on the FreeNode IRC server. You may also find useful information in the Kernel Wiki.

Kernel Bug Day Tuesday 21 june 2010
Hi Folks, Apologies for the late reminder, but this week's Bug Day will be tomorrow Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010. We will be reviewing confirmed bugs and ensuring that they have all the required information to be changed to Triaged. Also, if they are missing information, they will be changed to Incomplete. The goal herre is to get as many of these into the Triaged status as possible. Additionally, I'd like for them to be tagged according to the tagging information located on the wiki [1]. I have not yet migrated the old BugDay pages over from the old wiki namespace [2], but when I do they will have a home in the new wiki namespace [3]. Thanks for all your work thus far. Please don't hesitate to send me feedback on the new wiki pages [4] as we work to move everything over and work it into a new layout that should help you find information easily.

Kernel Community Bug Day Thursday June 3rd, 2010
Hi Folks! I apologize for the late reminder, but I have planned a Bug Day for Tomorrow to address bugs with patches attached. The effort will be focussed on identifying those misidentified patches and removing the patch designator while also asking for updates from original reporters to determine if they continue to have issues in the current release. Once we have completed this review, the team will be able to take a hard look at the proposed patches and determine their candidacy in the Maverick release as well as the possibility of SRU to Lucid. Thanks in advance for your help and, as always, look me up in the #ubuntu-kernel channel on FreeNode if you have questions.

Re: Removed Feature Impact Quality of Ubuntu

The point is the Hardware tab should not have been removed and needs to be restored. That is my argument. Its removal resulted in consequences which were not properly explored. Had a thorough study been done the development community would not have removed it due to the chaos for many users it would cause. It wasn't exactly removed. The entire tool was replaced with a frontend for xrandr because X (as you've noticed) has changed significantly on the backend. Nobody has gotten around to adding that functionality to the GUI for xrandr. Are you volunteering to write a tool that lets you add modes through a GUI? If not, this'd be a feature request on GNOME Control Center. This list is not a bug tracker. I'd also like to point out that Modesetting now occurs in the kernel and such a tool would have to take that into consideration as one would need to work with the kernel to change mode. This change occured fairly recently and, with the changes in DRM being backported into Lucid and subsequently being different in Maverick, one would need to consider these changes as well. ~JFo -- Mackenzie Morgan http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com apt-get moo -- Ubuntu-qa mailing list Ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-qa -- Ubuntu-qa mailing list Ubuntu-qa@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-qa

Hi All, This is a friendly reminder that the next Kernel Bug Day will be held Tues. 16 Feb, 2010 [1]. For those of you who are unfamiliar with what a Kernel Bug Day is, we have a wiki page [2] that should help explain things in greater detail. We'll be focusing on suspend/resume bugs with a 'New' status as well as identifying duplicates where possible. Please join us Tuesday(tomorrow) in the #ubuntu-kernel IRC channel on FreeNode as we tackle this list of bugs together.
