Clear message

Here we have a sampling of bugs to work on for Hug Day. After you have triaged or fixed a bug put your name in the last column and set the row's background to green by adding lightgreen in the first cell of the column after "background-color:" and before ";". This will let people know that the bug in that row has been hugged.

You might find it more convenient to edit the wiki page using editmoin a command line utility for editing moinmoin wiki pages. It is available as a package in Gutsy and Hardy. More information including an easier way to do this was mailed to the Bug Squad.

Our focus today is on bug reports regarding hal, the hardware abstraction layer, which deals with ways of connecting devices to your computer. Debugging procedures for hal are available and are part of the debugging series. Hal bug reports are frequently dependent on specific hardware but that doesn't prevent us from gathering the necessary information and confirming the bug report.

167 New bug reports about hal

These are New and probably untriaged bug reports about hal.

To mark it off the list you should:

  • Ask the reporter for more information set the status to Incomplete and subscribe to the bug report or

  • Assign the bug to the proper package if it isn't a hal bug or

  • If the bug report is complete set the bug's status to Confirmed or

  • Convert the bug to a question if it is really a support question
