13 Oct '10

Hey, folks. The live images for F14 TC1 are now available: http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/14.TC1.1/ and the desktop validation results page is up: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_14_Final_TC1_Desktop please do go ahead and get the TC1 images and help fill out the desktop validation results! I haven't tested the images myself yet but I'm pretty sure they're not DOA, I'm downloading them for myself right now. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net

is it possible to put in a program (xosview) in the panel?
by Ranjan Maitra 06 Oct '10

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to put the program xosview or equivalent in the LXDE panel settings so that I can see the usage of my two CPUs as well as memory from the panel. Many thanks and best wishes, Ranjan

Re: disable desktop background in fedora 13 (LXDE)

Thanks, Christoph. I have now subscribed to the lxde fedora mailing list. > Edit /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart and change the line that reads > or remove it completely. Instead add a line for xplanet > > @xplanet > I have also added @oclock -geometry -0+0 -tr -fg red -bd red -jewel red to get the oclock autostarted there (and it works). However, I would like to add this clock on all my desktops as well as without the border. Do you know how I can do this using the autostarted feature? It is a bit of a bother to actually have to go and click the bar at the top of the oclock each time. Many thanks and best wishes, Ranjan

Non-default desktop validation testing for F14 final
by Adam Williamson 05 Oct '10

05 Oct '10

Hi, folks. Just an update on desktop validation testing for F14 final (we'll hit the TC stage next week). I've been chatting to a few people about the idea of having bugs in desktop validation outside of GNOME block releases, and there turn out to be quite a lot of questions involved in terms of how exactly the project as a whole views the various spins and desktops. I'm happy to discuss this in more detail (oh, so much boring detail) if anyone's interested, but the upshot is that basically we're going to have to ask the board for clarification on a few things about the exact status of non-default desktops and spins. In the meantime, given the conclusion, I agreed with others in the release process (QA and releng) that for F14 Final (and we did this for Beta too) we'll consider failures in the desktop validation testing for LXDE and XFCE to be nice-to-have bugs under the new NTH process, rather than blockers. That means we'll take fixes for them through the release freeze, but won't hold the release for them. Failures in desktop validation testing for GNOME and KDE will be considered blockers. Once we have the wider questions sorted out one way or another, we'll take another look at the status of failures in LXDE and XFCE, and any other desktops/spins we extend validation testing to for F15 (I'm looking at Sugar and Meego for that time). But for now, just a heads-up that we'll be treating XFCE/LXDE validation issues as nice-to-have for Final.
