what did we decide to do here? OP last seen 2013... askubuntu.com/questions/345699/…
 
 
1 hour later…
Zanna
Zanna
8:17 AM
xy problem here... what to do? askubuntu.com/questions/437914/…
 
Zanna
Zanna
8:36 AM
I VTC as dupe, ignoring title of Q
 
Zanna
Zanna
9:15 AM
fixed by installing with DVD instead of USB askubuntu.com/questions/360451/… no repro or answer?
 
Anwar
Anwar
9:28 AM
@Zanna upvote
or OT as no-repro?
 
Zanna
Zanna
hmmm... maybe it's no fix, I don't want to accept it's not possible and we need to buy something?
 
Anwar
Anwar
hmm
It's a good idea to label upvote if we see a q with upvote. That will help us later if we want to see an stat imo
 
Zanna
Zanna
yes, sorry, thank you for doing that...
 
Anwar
Anwar
no need to be sorry :)
so what are we doing with that q?
 
Zanna
Zanna
hmmm... I think no fix
 
Anwar
Anwar
9:36 AM
voted with comment
 
Zanna
Zanna
ok, I'll support :)
 
Anwar
Anwar
archived the card
 
Zanna
Zanna
oh I see I retracted my vote... gah
upvoted your comment
 
Anwar
Anwar
can we flag an answer if it is too vague? askubuntu.com/questions/453495/xubuntu-14-04-clock-laptop
 
Zanna
Zanna
yeah I think so... that question is getting closed though...
 
Anwar
Anwar
9:44 AM
 
Zanna
Zanna
great, definitely agree with that, just thought it might be my lack of knowledge
It seems like they want an IDE for bash?
 
Anwar
Anwar
Bash is not a gui supporting language. Is it? I think they weren't too familiar with it.
 
Zanna
Zanna
shrug not afaik... Q seems unclear and vague
hope reviewers agree
or come up with an answer!
 
Anwar
Anwar
well... we can answer that question
OK. Answer it
 
Zanna
Zanna
I can't answer it, rather close it
but maybe someone will know better - every day I see questions and think "what? surely not!" and someone gives a brilliant answer
 
Anwar
Anwar
9:50 AM
Oh. But as far as I know, bash is not used in GUI.
 
Zanna
Zanna
well you can give a clear answer then if you want :) my answer would be "hmm I don't think so"
 
Anwar
Anwar
A bash IDE? Nuclear fission to boil water for tea... — jasonwryan Mar 8 '14 at 23:00
 
Zanna
Zanna
lol ^_^ yeah exactly
 
Anwar
Anwar
10:16 AM
That link has answer imo. The second one. Bash isn't used for GUI building. So, a GUI builder for shell is absurd
 
Zanna
Zanna
agree
 
Anwar
Anwar
I saw the question with baytrail devices. Was that question different?
 
Zanna
Zanna
no it's a dupe I think, unless their problem is not c-states
 
Anwar
Anwar
I was thinking same
My answer would be this stackedit.io/…. should i post?
 
Zanna
Zanna
I'm hoping that they just made a mistake - Win's answer doesn't help. I thought their device has same processor as me - boot param works flawlessly
 
Anwar
Anwar
10:24 AM
hmm. let's see
 
Zanna
Zanna
@Anwar yes post it and I will upvote
you put in pending and I don't understand the answer at all askubuntu.com/questions/361806/…
 
Anwar
Anwar
That's NAA
 
Zanna
Zanna
I'm downvoting the Q
someone seems to think it makes sense... the Q I mean... but not me...
 
Anwar
Anwar
let me read again
duping to this seems better askubuntu.com/questions/46624/…
 
Zanna
Zanna
perfect
excellent work
 
Anwar
Anwar
10:33 AM
1 less question to bother about
 
Zanna
Zanna
getting close now, hopefully we will more or less clear it this week
 
Anwar
Anwar
hope so
 
Zanna
Zanna
need the community to help us because we're closing a lot at this stage
 
Anwar
Anwar
Answer added.
I had a plan/idea
At this stage, we'll gather all closeable questions in another list and we'll deal with them in 1 suitable session, hopefully with mods or some other members want to work with us for an hour or so
 
Zanna
Zanna
sounds like a good backup plan for the ones that don't get easily closed in 48 hours or so through the queue
@Anwar upvoted, labelled and archived the card
 
Anwar
Anwar
10:41 AM
@Zanna ah. Thanks. We can retract the CV now i think
 
Zanna
Zanna
oh yeah thanks for reminding! done
 
Anwar
Anwar
Another question saved from queue :D
 
Zanna
Zanna
^_^
 
Anwar
Anwar
I rearranged two lists
 
Zanna
Zanna
that's tidier
 
Anwar
Anwar
10:56 AM
installation from DVD worked, but not from USB. looks like a no-repro askubuntu.com/questions/360451/…
I guess, it's same GRUB installation device selection list selecting wrong drive
 
Zanna
Zanna
@Anwar yeah I mentioned that earlier here, I thought no repro too
voted :)
 
Anwar
Anwar
oh. forgot it. It's good to see that we aren't thinking inconsistently
 
Zanna
Zanna
yeah! we are a good core team ^_^
 
Anwar
Anwar
@Zanna better. That means community decided it as upvoteable
 
Zanna
Zanna
@Anwar cool :)
 
Anwar
Anwar
11:03 AM
Briam was funny there
 
Zanna
Zanna
yeah!
could you add the -v flag and run that answer again, please
 
Anwar
Anwar
Ok, let me try
 
Zanna
Zanna
haha that was just my version of Braiam's comment, but you do a great job of improving answers in general
 
Anwar
Anwar
yeah. It seems --verbose flag returns good result
 
Zanna
Zanna
:)
 
Anwar
Anwar
11:10 AM
dino appeared. hi dino :)
 
Zanna
Zanna
I added my upvote but I wish I could give you rep with it for your efforts haha
hi lurking dino
 
jokerdino
jokerdino
@Anwar hi
 
Anwar
Anwar
bbl
 
Zanna
Zanna
cya :)
 
Zanna
Zanna
11:37 AM
recently fixed - needs another upvote askubuntu.com/questions/360411/…
 
Zanna
Zanna
12:04 PM
What to do? fixed in windows askubuntu.com/questions/369388/… ... reminds me I should try to fix my bluetooth with Win10 driver now (apparently works with new kernel)
 
Anwar
Anwar
12:16 PM
@Zanna added upvote
 
Zanna
Zanna
someone upvoted, but it makes no sense to me! askubuntu.com/questions/369612/…
@Anwar thanks :)
someone seems to have randomly upvoted a bunch of stuff in our pending queue...
maybe it's coincidence
 
Anwar
Anwar
who was it? any way to trace?
 
Zanna
Zanna
no way
nobody can see that
 
Anwar
Anwar
@Zanna yes. it is a solution. but that should be a dupe surely.
 
Zanna
Zanna
but they say the same thing fixes it but also hangs
 
Anwar
Anwar
12:21 PM
hangs for a moment I think
removed that part. It can happen
 
Zanna
Zanna
ok, it's fixed then... I thought maybe it was a typo
 
Anwar
Anwar
gnome-flashback includes two session. one uses compiz, one metacity. I think compiz one was messed
@Zanna can you list those questions?
 
Zanna
Zanna
and three more I archived that seemed fine to me
these look ok too I guess... not sure about them myself
 
Anwar
Anwar
@Zanna idk. can you see the deleted answer there? It cannot be a solution. but I guess something from bluetooth driver might have patched firmware or something
 
Zanna
Zanna
yes I can see deleted answers... (10k for that) helps a lot for this work
however, it's possible that installing windows driver in Ubuntu would work
that is a solution sometimes
 
Anwar
Anwar
12:38 PM
ndiswrapper was a project with this aim. But that works with only wireless driver afaik
 
Zanna
Zanna
I moved all those posts upvoted by someone else to reviewed by z, not sure whether that was right...
@Anwar hmm yeah...
 
Anwar
Anwar
if you agree with the votes...
 
Zanna
Zanna
does this look ok? askubuntu.com/questions/376256/… not sure why all the links...
@Anwar yeah, you're right... I put them there because the votes seem ok to me
but didn't archive so you can check as well
 
Anwar
Anwar
That's fine
 
Zanna
Zanna
ah the links are not working...
 
Anwar
Anwar
12:42 PM
@Zanna OP installed wvdial forcefully i think. because wvdial actually depends on those package 
wvdial
  Depends: ppp (>= 2.3.0)
 |Depends: debconf (>= 0.5.00)
  Depends: cdebconf
  Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4)
  Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 4.1.1)
  Depends: libuniconf4.6
  Depends: libwvstreams4.6-base
  Depends: libwvstreams4.6-extras
 |Depends: debconf (>= 0.5)
  Depends: <debconf-2.0>
    cdebconf
    debconf
 
Zanna
Zanna
yeah...
can you fix it?
 
Anwar
Anwar
ah. I see the point
 
Zanna
Zanna
In the question I have chars not displaying...
 
Anwar
Anwar
They can access the internet only via modem and modem works only with Non-Linux OS
I was in that situation few years ago
 
Zanna
Zanna
oooh makes sense
needs fixing though - links all broken
 
Anwar
Anwar
12:45 PM
yeah. I'm editing that one
 
Zanna
Zanna
thanks! can I help find anything?
 
Anwar
Anwar
the links are helpful.
oops. those are dead
 
Zanna
Zanna
yeah
 
Anwar
Anwar
fixing...
lucid is 10.04!
 
Zanna
Zanna
be good if we could update so it's not completely EOL
 
Anwar
Anwar
12:55 PM
fixed
 
Zanna
Zanna
awesome... thank you!
archived
 
Anwar
Anwar
ok.
 
Anwar
Anwar
1:17 PM
@Zanna as?
 
Zanna
Zanna
no repro I think as it's EOL to EOL!
 
Anwar
Anwar
it wasn't EOL when asked.
 
Zanna
Zanna
Maybe I should just edit the answer - am I being lazy? The answer is hidden by the bad formatting maybe
 
Anwar
Anwar
the answer to the question is do-release-upgrade
then they started another question inside their answer
and wrote answer to that question
 
Zanna
Zanna
yeah
exactly
 
Anwar
Anwar
1:22 PM
let me what can be done
 
Zanna
Zanna
you're doing all the work here...
 
Anwar
Anwar
we don't need that answer too. first question was a dupe and second question was also a dupe and fixed by an already existing answer. they typed the answer, but missed the formatting
here is the original answer askubuntu.com/a/363238/61218
 
Zanna
Zanna
yeah exactly, I want to close it to get rid of it
 
Anwar
Anwar
Can dino do this?
 
Zanna
Zanna
maybe we can do it
 
Anwar
Anwar
1:26 PM
CVed
 
Zanna
Zanna
can we flag the A?
I downvoted
 
Anwar
Anwar
try a custom flag
mention that, we really don't need that badly formatted answer.
and put the link with the flag
 
Zanna
Zanna
it's pure copypasta
 
Anwar
Anwar
yeah
 
Zanna
Zanna
we can NAA it no?
 
Anwar
Anwar
1:28 PM
you can flag once i think.
@Zanna dino fixed it
 
Zanna
Zanna
phew
thanks a lot @jokerdino
 
jokerdino
jokerdino

Anwar
Anwar
thanks to OP for putting the name of the answerer. otherwise it would be impossible to find
searching emo-dictionary
 
Zanna
Zanna
looks like a not very happy face to me
 
Anwar
Anwar
 
jokerdino
jokerdino
1:35 PM
flustered face
(my creation haha)
 
Zanna
Zanna
@Anwar great resource!
 
Anwar
Anwar
@Zanna just found while searching
 
Zanna
Zanna
2:14 PM
putting that in skipped by Z for now
OK, pending is empty, I have done everything I can do. So I am here just to offer my useless opinions until it's time to upload more cards. Maybe I can review the ones where we left a comment to see if anything can be done there

see askubuntu.com/questions/794725/… which has even more info and perhaps original post: askubuntu.com/questions/63610/… — oldfred Oct 22 at 13:56
I wish they would just answer it! Maybe I can work it out and and edit the answer later :(
 
Anwar
Anwar
3:57 PM
@Zanna I hate those comments
 
Zanna
Zanna
That person always comments instead of answering
 
Anwar
Anwar
really! I didn't notice

Someone upvoted here askubuntu.com/questions/307281
Looks alright?
 
Anwar
Anwar
I'm going to have food. will check later.
 
Zanna
Zanna
I wonder how many comments I've made lol
Enjoy :)
 
Anwar
Anwar

Zanna
Zanna

I am in doubt - the whole thing is at least borderline OT/NoRepro.
OP states in the answer the the "system was fairly modified" then follows a convoluted history and the conclusion "I don't know what really fixed it".
 
Zanna
Zanna
yeah I have seen that post a few times and not wanted to upvote... wonder if someone has been looking at our board and randomly upvoting stuff
 
guntbert
guntbert
perhaps not randomly but like "wow that sounds impressive, all the work OP did"
@Zanna on a different track: would you say askubuntu.com/a/452344/117103 is really an answer? If yes, this card should IMO be moved to "not fixed"
 
Zanna
Zanna
hmm... I think that's a progress report and the situation is no-repro imo because we don't know how their system got FUBAR?
VTC?
 
guntbert
guntbert
Agreed, I didn't want to suggest NoRepro because that sometimes seems to be my kind of hammer (You know "when your only tool is a hammer all problems start to look like nails) :-)
 
Zanna
Zanna
7:46 PM
yes I do know that problem... we are tempted to resort to the no-repro vote here a lot
 
Zanna
Zanna
8:10 PM
hopefully we should be uploading new cards by Sunday or Monday and there will be some better questions with better answers we can joyfully upvote
 
guntbert
guntbert
:-) It's nice to work with you - "joyfully upvote" sounds really good :-)
g'night @Zanna
 
Zanna
Zanna
@guntbert haha thanks :) :) goodnight & thanks again!
