Why the f. ask people to file a separate bug report for the exact same problem on the exact same machine ? Just to mark it a duplicate later on ?
I've been filing bugs for Ubuntu for 5+ years, and I would say that I'm under the impression that reporting kernel bugs in plain useless. The reporter is always asked to perform more test, different reports, test different kernel versions... The reporter can well be asked to spend several days testing, but then what ? I've never saw the Ubuntu team solve a single kernel bug I've reported or others reported and I followed... Reporting Ubuntu kernel bugs may be less useful than pray whatever god you'd like to solve them... The point seems to be that the bug will be solved the day the non-Ubuntu generic kernel folks will solve it... And they seem to care only about the discussions that goes on in the Linux kernel mailing-list... The present bug report is 7 months old, already has 68 comments, took me hours testing and responding, and what useful happened ? Zilch. Nada. Only heavy useless administrativia. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/971750 Title: [Toshiba L735-101] screen brightness cannot be set using hotkeys To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/971750/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
