by Adam Williamson 30 Sep '10

30 Sep '10

Graphics Test Week moves into its final stretch today / tomorrow (depending where you are!) with Intel graphics Test Day - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2010-09-30_Intel . As with the others, this event runs all day in #fedora-test-day on Freenode IRC, and testing instructions and live images (same as for the other two days) are on the Wiki page. Intel graphics users, please come out and help us make sure Fedora 14's graphics support is as good as it can be! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net

Fedora Updates Policy
by Kevin Fenzi 28 Sep '10

28 Sep '10

At today's FESCo meeting (2010-09-28) we approved an Updates Policy: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Updates_Policy This policy is based on the Fedora Board's Stable Updates release vision (see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Stable_release_updates_vision) and expanded to cover other branches of Fedora. It's a superset of the existing https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_update_acceptance_criteria page. All package maintainers and other interested parties are urged to read and follow the Policy. When in doubt about some portion of the policy, Or when seeking an exception for an update or an adjustment to the policy, please open a discussion on the devel list or with FESCo directly (see https://fedorahosted.org/fesco/newtplticket ). I would like to personally thank all the folks that helped work on or provide input to this document. I hope we can improve, clarify and adjust it as we go, leading to a better Fedora for our entire community. kevin

Graphics Test Week this week! 2010-09-28: Nouveau
by Adam Williamson 28 Sep '10

28 Sep '10

It's been creeping up, and now it's time: the world-famous Graphics Test Week begins tomorrow (2010-09-28), with the Nouveau Test Day [1]. As always, the event runs all day in #fedora-test-day on Freenode IRC. To complete Graphics Test Week, the Radeon Test Day [2] takes place the following day, Wednesday 2010-09-29, and the Intel Test Day [3] takes place Thursday 2010-09-30. As always, we'll be testing a range of graphics driver functions, and we need as many people as possible to join in so we can evaluate the widest possible range of hardware and identify as many bugs as possible for the developers to fix. You can do all the testing from a live image - no need for an installed copy of Fedora 14, though you can test that way too if you like - and the testing is very easy, there are step-by-step instructions for each test and for entering your results. And of course, there'll be many people in IRC to help with testing and debugging. If you can't make the nominated Test Day for your hardware, your testing is still just as valuable: you can do the testing any other day and add your results to the table on the Wiki page.

Fedora 14 Beta RC Validation Test Summary
by He Rui 26 Sep '10

26 Sep '10

Greetings, It's time to summarize F-14 Beta RC validation tests. Apologies for the absence of some RC3 install testing, but I'm glad to see that it went on smoothly, so special thanks for the ones who helped executing the cases. Though Beta has been declared gold based on the Beta release criterion[1], the summary of it is still helpful to make the issues clear for the final release candidates cycle. ************************* Installation ******************************* * F14Blocker: 623956 NEW - VESA driver fails in qemu/kvm machines, system hangs at X init 635821 NEW - Attempting to submit (scp or bugzilla) an exception report fails if networking not active 627789 MODIFIED - Error setting up repository - 16, Device busy * Warnings: 585006 NEW - livecd-creator creates i386 and x86_64 ISOs which are larger than indicated by the ISO header 633815 NEW - Network installation fails when IPv4 DHCP fails/ IPv6 present 635873 MODIFIED - ImportError: No module named product 635887 MODIFIED - TypeError: getDiskPart() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given) ************************** Desktop *********************************** * F14Blocker: 624136 NEW - [abrt] evolution-2.31.5-2.fc14: e_import_cancel: Process /usr/bin/evolution was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) 625367 NEW - SELinux is preventing /usr/libexec/kde4/kdm_greet "write" access on /usr/libexec/kde4/lnusertemp 636118 NEW - Swell Foop fails to run in F14 Beta RC3 Desktop live install 542255 ASSIGNED - [abrt] crash detected in gmixer-1.3-11.fc12 * Warnings: 635897 NEW - SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/lxdm-binary "execute" access on xauth. 636229 NEW - Wrong defaults for actions on pressing power, suspend and hibernate buttons 636380 NEW - Boot Failure from Live CD Desktop (F14B RC3) Can't mount root filesystem 636104 NEW - [abrt] nautilus-2.31.92-1.fc14: g_type_check_instance_cast: Process /usr/bin/nautilus was killed by signal 11 (SIGSEGV) 635895 MODIFIED - SELinux is preventing /lib64/dbus-1/dbus-daemon-launch-helper "execute" access on hald.

Anaconda Translation&Keyboard Test Day recap
by Igor Pires Soares 19 Sep '10

19 Sep '10

I want to thank all testers, translators, developers and users who helped us on this test day [1]. We manage to have several bugs reported covering different languages and their input characteristics. It is nice to have some issues detected at this time of the release cycle since they were usually detected closer to the release date, now translators and developers have more time to work on them. Here is a list of bugs filed during the Test Day: 634385 NEW - Multiple placeholders within one string in anaconda.po 635042 NEW - [minor, i18n] "Cancel" button is not translated in various dialogs 634777 NEW - Firstboot does not show translations in hardware profile screen 634499 NEW - [te_IN] character appear half in some text box with firefox/thunderbird 634556 NEW - language support is not installed by selecting few languages. 634680 NEW - firstboot: License Agreement isn't translated to Japanese. 634475 NEW - Anaconda is not fully translated into zh_CN 634484 NEW - Codes are displayed in anaconda GUI 634486 NEW - Descriptions are missing in partitioning screen of anaconda 634548 NEW - [gu-IN]Some strings are untranslated in gdm 634739 ASSIGNED - terminal exit with backspace or Delete button 628241 CLOSED ERRATA - Fedora 14 Alpha, post reboot installation steps not working Now it is time to help on triaging and solving those bugs. In addition, we need to keep testing in order to assure good localization and internationalization support for everyone.
