Determining whether a bug report is actually a support request can be quite challenging, but if you decide the bug is a support request you can convert it to such by clicking "Convert to a question" at the top of the bug's web page. This will mark the bug as "Invalid", create a new question in the answer tracker and link it to the bug. In the comment dialog that you receive, post a comment to inform the reporter about your action, and advise them to use the support tracker for any future problems.
Thank you for taking the time to report this issue and helping to make Ubuntu better. Examining the information you have given us, this does not appear to be a bug report so we are closing it and converting it to a question in the support tracker. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but it would make more sense to raise problems you are having in the support tracker at https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu if you are uncertain if they are bugs. For help on reporting bugs, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs . It is also a good idea to change the source package beforehand if it's set incorrectly, so that the question will be associated with the correct package in the answer tracker, or edit the question afterwards and assign it to the correct package. If it doesn't pertain to a specific package, change it to "Ubuntu". ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New => Invalid ** bug changed to question: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/41697 -- gnome panel not visible on the desktop in Ubuntu 8.04, not able to access any application https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/225173 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
