== RC Bugs == * (FIXED?) https://launchpad.net/bugs/304871: -intel X.org driver does not work on i845G → turned out to be a hard problem now; none of XAA/EXA/UXA works with current version. (In theory, fixed by recent 2.6.3 upload, but needs retested to verify. --bryce) * (FIXED) https://launchpad.net/bugs/313027: fglrx not working in Jaunty → taken off the release radar, we are focusing on supporting latest models with the free -ati driver ([[https://launchpad.net/bugs/334101||LP #334101]]). Current plan is to move all fglrx users to -ati; that is now available in jaunty, just waiting for the kernel bits to be uploaded. (Fixed! --bryce) * https://launchpad.net/bugs/320632: tap-to-click and edge scrolling broken → already believed to be fixed, but not on all models; Alberto is debugging. (Fix uploaded this week, but O.R. says it didn't solve it. --bryce) * https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/275432: policykit log spewage on servers → no progress this week * https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/305790: pitti backported the changes to build with openjdk, but test suite still fails; we might stay with building with gcj for jaunty if we can't resolve that * https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331564: sometimes notification flickers when fading in: No recent activity, Mirco unable to reproduce, just a cosmetic bug; Mirco will try harder to reproduce after sprint next week * https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/267241: X fails to start with more than one display adapter → no progress this week. (Upstream patch identified, needs tested. --bryce) * https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/328035: X.org crash after suspend → might be a toolchain problem, currently being investigated |

== Planned Intrusive changes == * Potential patch to mozzilla: make new tab behaviour consistent in Firefox (https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox-3.0/+bug/331618); waiting for response from Mozilla * updating clutter-gst from 0.8 to 1.0 for moblin compliance; 1.0 is not yet available upstream, but will be soon; it does not have reverse dependencies (except for perl and Python bindings, which will be updated along) * add three new themes to the default install (not used by default, though) * consider updating to a new -intel X.org driver (needs testing first, though) |
* The new GTK landing creates some theme related issues (visual bugs, combo boxes broken), #ps has little time and motiviation to deal with Ubuntu issues at the moment though * leftover from previous week: * the "one compiz source" compiz version should be uploaded next week * xorg-server 1.12 should be uploaded next week == Summary of bugs working on by team (reasonably reliable) == * No specific list yet for quantal == Dependencies on other teams to make deliverables, blocking items, release wide concerns? == * The current upstream Unity team organisational changes makes it hard to know what will land and when for Ubuntu... == Blueprints == https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+specs?searchtext=desktop-q- Burndown and spec completion levels: * For alpha-2 milestone: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/canonical-desktop-team-quantal-alpha-2 * Entire cycle: http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-quantal/canonical-desktop-team.html <<Anchor(rcbugs)>> == Release targetted bugs being worked on/monitored == under investigation: triaged/in progress: * Bug:932598 ''[Full hard drive causes xorg and lightdm to fail to load]'': Fixed mountall to create tmpfs /tmp on foll disk, as earlier Ubuntu releases used to do. lightdm still needs a fix. * Bug:870297 ''[lightdm logins not being logged in wtmp]'': there is a merge request which went through a first review round Fix committed, but not uploaded yet: * Bug:872701 ''[Keyboard layout doesn't change in screensaver lock dialog]'': there is a fix upstream, should be included in the next gtk upload Fixed since last report: <<Anchor(relnotes)>> == Cumulative Desktop Release Notes == = Archive of previous weekly summaries = === 2012-06-15 === Done: * Ongoing work on hybrid graphics support * X.org 1.12 is now available in ubuntu-x-swat/x-stagin * Continued on SRUs for precise * Updated GNOME a11y stack to latest unstable release * Uploaded PulseAudio 2.0 to quantal * The next SRU round for the unity stack is being prepared * Libreoffice 3.5.4 SRU has been uploaded and is waiting for SRU team review * The work on the system compositor advanced enough to start the lightdm work * The work for the ui redesign of the third party drivers started === 2012-06-08 === Done: * firefox and thunderbird 13 have been updated for all supported ubuntu series, work started for the next versions in quantal * Libreoffice 3.6.0-beta1 is getting ready for quantal (in a ppa for the moment) * Update Manager got a slightly new look, more to come in the future * GNOME 3.5 updates in quantal * The team continued on merges and python3 porting * The system compositor work is seeing some good progresses * Unity build issues on quantal are being investigate (the build issue have fixes available but unity,nux segfaults when building with the new gcc, that's being investigated) * Some SRUs for precise === 2012-06-01 === Done: * Specs writing is done * Continued on SRUs for precise * Good progresses on the third party drivers installation spec * New firefox (13) and thunderbird are ready for the coming release * Got firefox to build with the quantal toolchain * Libreoffice 3.5.4 SRU is ready for upload * Work on xorg for lts point release updates continued * compiz got refactored to be only one source rather than five, the packaging got updated and the new version is finally building === 2012-05-25 === Done: * Catchup after UDS * Specs writing * Started quantal work, merges, some updates * Some SRUs for precise |

What's about to land that might impact the other teams?
- The new GTK landing creates some theme related issues (visual bugs, combo boxes broken), #ps has little time and motiviation to deal with Ubuntu issues at the moment though

Summary of bugs working on by team (reasonably reliable)

Dependencies on other teams to make deliverables, blocking items, release wide concerns?
