Hi,
When will the time 64 transition completed so we can try all the updates (GS and so on)?
Big thanks to everyone who pitched in on the Ubuntu 24.04 testing week! Whether you were deep-diving into test cases, hunting bugs on Launchpad and Github, or just spreading the word, your efforts were key to polishing the upcoming Ubuntu release. You’ve all shown what our community is capable of when we come together. I’m especially happy there has been lots of discussion here. Cheers to you all!
Special thanks goes to the top testers for this release. I want to specifically call out @leok who blew it out of the park with 849 results. This is absolutely amazing, and helps Ubuntu 24.04 be as stable as it can be!

Thank you for the kind words - but to be fair my Noble Testing results date from 01 November 23 until present day (not just the testing week).
Please can you post the number of results for each tester?

Hello, I have a few problems. 1. At startup the error logsize 0 appears.
2. Sometimes the keyboard on my laptop in tablet mode gets stuck.
3. I lack the “insert” button for the touch screen keyboard, it is very inconvenient to use the terminal in tablet mode.
I know we’re out of this testing week but when will we be able to really test Noble?
At the moment all is stuck in t64 transition.

Last week I was able to update, install build tools, and build Linux kernel and AOSP.
This week I keep running into problems installing build tools.
I reinstalled and tried again. And keep getting the same stupid bug. Sigh.

Is there any way to help with the xz build process. I am asking because there is a computer I have that is ONLY for Ubuntu. I do not mind giving control to an ubuntu developer if it helps with the build process (Dont know if that is something that can be offered to help).

Sadly not. Builds of Ubuntu packages can only happen in the launchpad build farm.
