Status

hardware-kernel-n-bug-handling (0/0/0)

A prototype of the 'key bugs' list is in development, currently showing release, support, and HWE bugs; work is ongoing to include the remaining tag defined lists.

No Work Items

hardware-kernel-n-config-review (0/0/0)

PV on HVM support (XEN_PCI_PLATFORMDEV) testing is mow complete. The only other remaining action here currently is to report on the final config at beta time, this is waiting on the final kernel version.

apw

No Work Items

hardware-kernel-n-firmware-test-suite-enhancements (0/0/0)

Working on auto tagging with LP

colin-king

No Work Items

hardware-kernel-n-stable-frankenkernel-maintenance (0/0/0)

All actions completed.

No Work Items

hardware-kernel-n-stable-process-review (0/0/0)

Documentation updates are complete. The testing parts of the process are now in place and producing results. We have run the process twice through to release successfully. Testing blueprint is now made and other items are tracked there.

No Work Items

hardware-kernel-n-ubuntu-delta-review (0/0/0)

All 19 of the 19 personal patch reviews are now done, and all of the outcomes applied. Some work remains on compcache which is now superceeded by zram in staging, but some userspace work is required to switch to it.

apw

No Work Items

hardware-kernel-n-version-and-flavours (0/0/0)

Master kernels are now at v2.6.37 and remain stable. OMAP3 kernels now switched over to the distro master branch and being used in ARM images. ti-omap4 is a little behind the curve and being investigated.

apw

No Work Items

multimedia-desktop-n-audio-apport-symptom (0/0/0)

Making "ubuntu-bug audio" symptom based - the user will be asked in more detail of the problem, and the apport symptom will analyse and submit the right logs. Perhaps also add Intel-HDA specific features?

diwic

No Work Items

none-kernel-n-misc (0/0/0)

Work is ongoing on some long standing ecryptfs bugs, prototypes of patches to fix the ecryptfs long filename issue are almost complete.

performance-dx-n-gesture-tuning (0/0/0)

By UDS, people will have had a chance to work with our gesture engine. What's going well? What should we do more of? What's broken? What needs fine-tuning? In particular, we want to focus on these two areas: * how well are gestures being recognized and parsed by the engine? * how are users finding the actual physical gestures defined for Maverick? Note that some issues will be hardware/firmware problems, kernel driver problems; how can we mitigate these? how can we get folks clued into tools such as the N-trig calibrator for Linux that Rafi wrote? One example, from Henrik: "...the two-finger pinch. At first, we wanted to use a focus point for propagation, such that a point in between was were the events would go. Then we learned that it might be better to use the common visible branch of windows, which often means coming down to the root window. But I realize that when placing one finger first, in a window, and putting a second down to zoom, it does not matter where that [second] finger is." Tags: hci-n, hci, touch, multi-touch, multitouch, gestures, utouch stack, utouch, algorithms. optimization

multimedia-platform-n-pro-audio-secured (2/0/3)

What do we need to bridge the gap between the Pro audio's need for reliably low latency, and Ubuntu's secure and just-works standard? E g: FFADO udev rules, jack and rtkit integration, adding memlock features to rtkit, make PA a jack client when jack starts, add a jack engine whenever a FW soundcard is plugged in, etc? Perhaps we can't or shouldn't do all of these for Natty, but having some of them would be nice.
