Re: [Lubuntu-qa] Chromium

Hi Nicholas, I do believe that Chads request falls squarely in the automated test department Is there some kind soul who will set up the test case for Chad? (Begs). This is really a case of an urgent automated test case to check the incoming releases, as they can be security releases as well.

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] [PPC] Bugs going into Alpha 2

There's also Bug #1194319, which is still under investigation, but it prevents me from fully testing LiveCDs. On Fri, Jul 19, 2013 at 5:38 AM, Phill Whiteside wrote: > A2 is a critical time. if you have not found work arounds from the > previous so called 'red' bug, which we are able to cope wit

Hi Boss, the most wonderful thing about doing a massive edit, is when you ask people to say how it can be improved. and it is quiet :) That I had to blow a few cobwebs off my wiki editing (and deleted the final page)... It's a bit like riding a bike, in theory you do not forget :) Phill. On

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] New Activities page

Phill worked hard to restore some sanity to the activities page again, many thanks to him for this! As always anytime you see some confusing or broken bits of information on the wiki bring it up, or hop in and fix it :-) It represents our collective knowledge as a group and requires all of us t

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] [Feedback Needed] zram-config

Hi, there is much mis understanding about swap. Every one *seems* to think it is only used when physical RAM is exhausted. it is *NOT*. Linux will use swap to 'swap out' areas that are not being actively used according to their "swappiness" I give you one simple example from my server. Mem:

He he, been there... done that one! (Deleting browser cache was also one of the answers that reminded me what it is like to be a n00b when I had an issue and screamed and shouted!) It's amazing how we ever get newcomers, I've still to find a newcomer friendly version of signing the Ubuntu CoC,,, B

Phill, never mind my previous email. I forgot to login. It seems I need a fresh cop of coffee. Cheers, David Pires On Fri, Jul 19, 2013 at 11:52 AM, David Manuel Pires wrote: > Hi, Phill. > > Congratulations on the job done, the page looks great. > > I just want to ask you something, in the s

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] New Activities page

Hi, Phill. Congratulations on the job done, the page looks great. I just want to ask you something, in the section Who are you? people are encouraged to register themselves and their testmachines. Thing is, how can that be done? Both WhoW

[Lubuntu-qa] New Activities page

Hi, just so as you don't think we sit around and do nothing about the wiki area while you all play with auto testing etc :P In the last couple of weeks a fair few man hours have been spent on an edit of of the activities page[1]. It is now live, please pass comments to this email thread (reply t

I'm saying this just personally, not with any backup... But, my brother's camera is a 'silly' pixel size (10 G) Try open that on a computer with 8G that has no swap I suspect it may fail. When I open them in raw format on my 4G machine... swap (and I mean hard drive swap as well) gets REAL

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] [Feedback Needed] zram-config

I am not sure about machines with 4+ GB RAM. If that much memory is full, then the cpu core(s) is/are busy for sure: maybe transcoding a video or a game where the AI needs to be computed and the cpu should call as much frame as possible. In such situations where the cpu is busy it shouldn't need
