Background



I use Ubuntu on a daily basis. I will get the occasional crash that warrants a developer report tool. It sends in the report. (I have no idea if this is useful. Often I know the cause and it was due to my own stupidity.)



More often then a crash I will get a process hang or just mangled graphics if I'm lucky. Really minor glitches are more common. A good number of my errors are found under high ram usage conditions i.e. 7 out of 8GB 5% Swap usage.... I understand this is reckless behavior but it should only slow my system down, not break it. Especially with only having 5% swap... (Not the issue)



Question



Is there a good way that I can give Canonical more data so I can live better or am I doomed to stay stagnant.



I feel this is an appropriate question because:



  • there should be a finite number of ways to contact developers

  • there is no opinion in a list of options on how to better send data

  • It's clear there are a lot of errors in 18.04LTS (I know it's only been a month)

There may be no answer to the question but I assume there's somewhere like GitHub or something where issues on components of the suite can be raised?

    it sounds like you're asking around ubuntu-bug (ie. wanting an alternative to the default method). Once its finished its default bug-report, additional attachments can be added including useful description

You can use Reporting Bugs.



The page has topics and links that include:



  • How to report bugs

  • Determine if the bug is really a bug

  • Perform a survey of your problem

  • Reporting an application crash in the development release

  • Reporting an application crash in the stable release

Once you report a bug (or feature request) it will be assigned a number and you'll have the ability to track it, as well as share the bug report link with others.
