Hi Paul, From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Hanchett, Paul Sent: Thursday, September 05, 2013 6:07 PM To: Ylinen, Mikko Cc: [email protected]; Kenneth Smith Subject: Re: Errors installing Tizen 3.0 M2 Aug HomeScreen
I'm sorry to say that "launch_app org.tizen.ico.homescreen" does not seem to fix my problem. It says the app has been launched (or is running or some such), but nothing on the VM screen. I'm going to try setting the environment variables mentioned elsewhere here to see if that makes any difference... Clearly there are a lot of people who think this is working. I'm perplexed that it apparently does not for me. I'm using a VM built on the Aug M2 released image. 1. Has anyone actually got HomeScreen running with the released (BIOS) image? In a VMware VM? [Geoffroy] It worked for me at some stage but not anymore... I guess it may come back at some stage given it's a race condition (but that's by no means a solution :)). I tried the fix that Mikko suggested earlier on the mailing list but it did not work for me. He has proposed a patch for https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/TIVI-1724 that's under review https://review.tizen.org/gerrit/#/c/9809/1 but I noticed that this later patch is different than what I tried so my intention is to wait for it to land and then test it. By the way, I'm not 100% sure this is purely related to the HomeScreen... I've seen a similar issue where the weston desktop shell does not come up. It seems to be triggered much more easily with some screens than with others. I have one in particular here which triggers that problem nearly all the time. 1. When there are known issues and workarounds that need to be applied to get the image to work, aren't they part of the release notes? [Geoffroy] I try to include the top known issues and most 'tips & tricks' in the release notes, so respectively: - https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/IVI/IVI_August_29,_3.0-M2-Aug#Top_Known_Issues - https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/IVI/IVI_August_29,_3.0-M2-Aug#Tips.2C_tricks_and_other_workarounds I may be missing some though... in my case, I never hit that bug on my platform before. 1. I can't find these issues listed in Jira-- have they been reported there? If not, how can anyone track the quality of the current build, or know whether or not to report a bug? [Geoffroy] There are some filters in JIRA that have been set-up by various folks (from PM, Q&A, etc.): https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/secure/ManageFilters.jspa#filterView=popular. You can use some of them or do a general search. My rule of thumb is that if I don't find a particular issue then I do some debug and file a JIRA issue. If it turns out to be a duplicate, then we can later mark it as such and close it but at least we can track it through resolution. I've had it called to my attention that changes/bug fixes are being committed to git/Jenkins that do not appear to be driven by bug reports or feature requests. Without an explicit connection between commits and features/bugs, how do the QA people know what to focus on when they QA the build? I apologize in advance for asking these challenging questions--I'm just trying to understand how or if I should be reporting what I'm finding. So far, when I report issues here I get the response "Yes, we know about that," but I can't find where to know that for myself. I really want to get into self-help mode. :-) Thanks for your responses!
