Hi,
I do have a specific Problem with the Open Movie Editor on Ubuntu Feisty. The Video Frames are badly distorted when they are smaller then 1024 pixels in width. I am quite confident that this is a bug in the glTexSubImage2D of Mesa on this Version of Ubuntu, beause on Dapper it works quite well. So who do I need to complain to, so that the bug gets fixed, and then the bug-fix is distributed to all the fellow ubuntu users, through the ubuntu update system?
I could just post a bug-report to launchpad, but who knows what happens then, I’d rather like to get in close contact with the responsible persons to get that sorted out quickly.
Additionally, if someone is an OpenGL Guru, and is aware of any potential problems in my code that could be related to that problem, I’d be more than happy to hear them.
thx

Answering myself:
After reading the current Ubuntu Newsletter, my attention was drawn to the Personal Package Archives, which seem to provide a simple mechanism for distributing customized ubuntu packages, independently, which might be what I’d like to try.

You should get in contact with the MOTU’s, the masters of the universe. Those are the poeple that manage all packages in the universe repository. The quickest way to get in contact is #ubuntu-motu on irc.freenode.net

Hi,
thanks for the hint, I think I’ll go for that.
