alright, so I asked my father to plug the machine into the network so that I can access it via ssh. Updated all packages to the latest release (I already had the latest sl-modem packages installed). Half a Gig of downloads later,
nothing has changed! Why am I not surprised? Daniel, I'm not blaming anyone. I understand and appreciate what open- source software is and how it works. It's not like somebody purposefully changed the code to create this bug, so there really isn't anybody to blame. I'm merely asking that my time not be wasted time and again without good reason. Is that too much to ask? IMNSHO a spirit of "let's fix this together" should allow for feedback when one party feels frustrated and unnecessarily burdened by the other. I have said before that I see the progress that Ahmed made, but I still find it very frustrating to interact. And I will not shut up just to have that fuzzy feeling of false harmony. I'm happy that things are apparently working for Ahmed. That is a great step forward as it allows us to look for the differences between his setup/machine and mine (I just hope it's not again some kind of trick where he runs the latest lucid package on a karmic system or some such, knowing full well that the lucid kernel wasn't giving a successful test result -> comment 82. Apparently the latest test were done on a full lucid system). I still find today's action a long stretch and objectionable because for the purpose of crossing off one more ticket off the list that opportunity was put at risk. Daniel, I am worried that you apparently feel differently. Bug work is not about closing tickets or churning out a senseless amount of new packages, it's about fixing problems. Fixing problems is not trickery, either. -- no more /dev/ttySL0 device node https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/375148 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
