Desktop Bugs

The Ubuntu Desktop unfortunately has bugs. This is how we cope with them.

How to Triage

Are you new to Bug Triage? Most frequent questions have already been answered here:

• HelpingWithBugs

• DebuggingGNOME

• What the Status field of bugs mean

• What the tags in bugs mean

You really want to get started, you have read the above documents and you still feel like "What am I supposed to do?" Don't worry, that's how we all felt when we started.

Opportunities

• Bitesize tasks

• Bugs that should be filed upstream

• Bugs that haven't been touched in a while

• Old bugs with 'New' status

• Old bugs with 'Incomplete' status

• Bugs with patches attached - it'd be nice if you could either comment or test them - to make inclusion easier
