Joining the bug squad is very simple. First of all join the launchpad bug squad team at https://launchpad.net/~bugsquad. Ofcourse you need to have a launchpad account and also sign the ubuntu code of conduct. Everything you need to know is all explained clearly in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpingWithBugs. As a bug squad member, you triage bugs (ensuring a bug has all the information a developer might need to fix it). If you are stuck anywhere just let us know and we will help you further. Thank you for your interest in helping out with Ubuntu. Kind regards, Nekhelesh On 03 December 2012 11:12:58, Furqan Hashmi wrote: > Hello friends , > > My name is Furqan Ahmed Hashmi .

I tried to find out what happened, but failed. Detail as blow: 1)I tried ”cat /dev/net/tun“ and its feedback is ”cat: /dev/net/tun: File descriptor in bad state“ 2)I tried "lsmod | grep tun". No information output. 3)I tried "modprobe tun". And then tried "lsmod | grep tun" again. The result is the same : No information output. 4)I check tap0, tap1 by the command of ifconfig.

I think it might be a package problem.I tried to replicate the bug, but so far nothing. Only an install error which was fixed by re-running the installation. I did forget to take a note on the error, though. The bug reported was about nvidia experimental drivers 310 package.The reporter says 304 works fine, which I confirmed when trying to replicate.His situation is getting a black screen when lightdm starts. It worked with me, although it did present an error, so I can't confirm it. I suggested installing the nvidia 310.19 from the nvidia site (which I'm using with no problem) to see if it was package related, or some function included in the drivers post-304 that might be conflicting with his system configuration. In his reply, he mentioned that with 304 he gets no xorg.conf file, and with 310, lightdm doesn't work with or without the xorg.conf file. He's not particularly inclined to use non-packaged drivers, so he didn't try the 310.19. I mentioned the file to him because, with drivers from nvidia, if I update the xorg.conf file I get the black screen like him. The install script defaults to not update, though. It's my first bug triage so I'm looking for pointers. If you could take a look and give me your opinion, the bug number is 1093376 Thanks... -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Just use ubuntu-bug on your system to report the bug, in the title note that it's 12.04.

That might be easier for bug triagers to change the specific project to Wubi. Or we tell them to directly report a bug against the Wubi project in Launchpad. The reporting guidelines for Wubi is really clear after choosing the reported project as Wubi. What should normal bug reporters do? File a bug against Ubuntu, or file against Wubi directly?
