lxinput 0.3.0 coming your way
by Christoph Wickert 12 Aug '10

12 Aug '10

Hello world, a new version of lxinput (0.3.0, dunno why upstream skipped 0.2.0) is already in Rawhide and coming to Fedora 12, 13 and 14. It fixes bug a where mouse settings did not persist between sessions in connection with lxsession 0.4.x. Please get the update tested and provide feedback at https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc12 or https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc13 or https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/lxinput-0.3.0-1.fc14 Thanks, Christoph [1] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=599623

Working F14 Alpha RC3 live images now available
by Adam Williamson 11 Aug '10

11 Aug '10

Hi, everyone. Working live images for Fedora 14 Alpha RC3 are now available here: http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/14-Alpha.RC3.1.live/ we've screwed this up so many times I took the precaution of actually downloading and booting all the x86-64 images before writing this email. So I personally guarantee they at least boot to a desktop in virt-manager! We have the go/no-go meeting in just under 3 hours. It would be very helpful if people could help fill in at least the Alpha tests for each desktop in the desktop testing matrix: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_14_Alpha_RC3_Desktop thanks a lot! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net

Eliminating the latter seems to be the fix Thanks for testing. Looks like something LXDE team would like to know about. I guess the LXDE spin kickstart should be adjusted to not include polkit-gnome, if that's practical? -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net

[Fwd: [Test-Announce] Fedora 14 Alpha RC2 Available Now!]
by Adam Williamson 08 Aug '10

08 Aug '10

Hi, everyone - the second Alpha RC is now available. We're fairly sure this one is actually installable. :) Please note that we don't have live images that are really testable as equivalents to rc2 yet, because quite a lot of packages which were cherry-picked for rc2 have not been approved as updates yet and so are not being included in live composes. So for now I'm afraid you can only do the desktop testing by installing from the DVD and selecting the appropriate package set manually. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net

This one actually works! Or so I'm told. Please read the instructions and help executing the test cases at: Installation: * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test Desktop: * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Desktop_Test Remember, new for Fedora 14, we need to have the desktop validation tests for KDE, Xfce and LXDE completed, as well as the desktop spin. If you would like to use a live image for testing, please use the nightly live images dated 2010-08-03 available here: * http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/nightly-composes/ The 2010-08-03 desktop spin is already available, and KDE, Xfce and LXDE will be available shortly. Feel free to discuss any issue/problem/bug encountered on IRC/Test List and file it in bugzilla if it's a bug. Happy testing! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net
