hopefully there will be soon images based on this kickstart


I'd suggest to start a collaborative intense testing phase as soon as the
images are available. Everyone with a device should test hell out of it.
A group of students has been trying out my tablet recently (they will be
conducting usability tests with it) and still found quite a few problems,
and I did not have the chance to systematically test recently.




and here's the link

https://share.basyskom.com/plasma-active/deployment/wetab-exopc/tablet/mer/testing/basyskom-plasma-active-four-wetab-exopc-tablet-mer-release-rc.iso


I'll start testing when I get my WeTab back on Friday. The students have 
already found quite a few problems while getting to know it, some of 
them quite ugly. I'll try to reproduce them with the stable image and 
report them if I can.

Yes I was, thanks for correcting my ignorance.

Complaining is the one thing that won't help you.

I apologize if it sounds like just complaining. I was trying to provide
useful feedback of an early image. Perhaps my words aren't as good as they
should be. I hope no hard feelings.

No problem, just wanted to make clear we're talking about the same things.

No hard feelings on my side, I didn't make Mer ;)
I'd just like to initiate a shift in mindsets: From PA on Mer does not 
work correctly on my device!, which we hear from pretty much everyone 
who tries to use it on a device where nobody used it before, to I see 
that a lot of work still has to be put into making it work on this 
device. How do we get that work started?


Of course the problem is: How do users distinguish bugs related to 
hardware integration from actual PA- or Mer-Bugs? This is a problem I 
have no solution for yet. One indicator might be that it's a fairly 
obvious and critical bug which has not yet been reported on 
bugs.kde.org. In this case, it's unlikely that it happens on the devices 
we use as well without having been reported yet.

 - Wait for the Vivaldi. If you read Aaron's blog, you know how much time
 was already put into getting Plasma Active on Mer to work on that device
 (which is not Mer's fault!) and afaik it's still not finished, but when
 it's out, you'll know it will work well.


In one of the videos about Vivaldi Aaron mentioned that it'll be using
libhybris, which was a bit of a surprise, since Vivaldi was expected to be
crafted specifically for PA and to use the best available options. Does it
mean that it won't have native X11/Wayland drivers? Were there problems
with obtaining them? It's supposed to be Mali-400 as far as I know.

Thanks,

Hillel.

 also, new repositories are enabled in the image:
 * mer-updates: it will contain bugfix updates for the base system if neede
 (hopefully none)
 * kde:apps : it will contain 3rd party apps and packages based on kde.
 being enabled on pa4 new packages can land there post release and will be
 easy installable on pa4 systems
 
Do I have to enable the new repros or have to change repros, if i use PA4 on 
my weTab and have updated it nearly every day and want to test the release-
candidate. If yes, were do i find them?
