FWIW I downloaded the F14 Beta-rc3 i686 liveCD to run it through a few basic desktop tests, and there was one apparent hiccup.
When I turned on the printer, the system correctly identified my printer -- an HP Deskjet F4180 with an integrated flatbed scanner -- and automatically found and installed the necessary driver(s) and dependencies. However when I tried to use "simple scan" it still insisted that it couldn't find a connected scanner, or that maybe it wasn't turned on (ie. it was connected and turned on.) I have xSane installed on my F12 system, and as I recall all I did during the post-install process was install xSane, and the scanner (and printer) worked fine from the get-go.
Other mundane tests I did (I know that these aren't the tests asked for, but then why do outside clients contract Jamie and Adam from Mythbusters to test their "things" outside of the confines of the show? For the unconventional testing approach they'll use, or in my case here, the mundane approach. :) ) :
- on the login screen, I changed the language to English (Canada) -- successful - on the login screen, I changed the keyboard to Canada French (Legacy) -- successful, and the layout worked once logged in, the correct characters were where they were supposed to be - once I logged in with the liveuser account, I changed the screen resolution to 1280x1024 -- successful - Firefox booted and brought up the usual first time Firefox page, and in a second tab the Fedora search page -- successful - Vinagre was tested to VNC into my home server's desktop through the home network -- successful - Terminal: top command -- successful - Terminal: ifconfig -- successful - Terminal: su command -- successful, but I found it unnerving that there isn't a password for the root account; I suppose that assigning a root password and publicizing it may actually be worse than not assigning one at all, since some person will be lulled into thinking "oh well it's password protected" not realizing that in not changing it, any cracker who somehow manages to get into the system by whatever means would easily try the password announced in the same place that innocent liveCD users would find it: on a public web page!
