# Fedora Quality Assurance Meeting # Date: 2012-03-26 # Time: 15:00 UTC (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto) # Location: #fedora-meeting on irc.freenode.net Greetings testers! It's meeting time once more. We have a beta to sign off on, so expect lots of happy fun blocker review. Also, I figured it'd be a good idea to kick around the 'QA as a sub-project' topic in a meeting. This is a reminder of the upcoming QA meeting. Please add any topic suggestions to the meeting wiki page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Meetings/20120326 The current proposed agenda is included below. == Proposed Agenda Topics == 1. Previous meeting follow-up 2. Fedora 17 Beta status / blocker review 3. 'Project' status 4. Test Day report 5. Upcoming QA events 6. AutoQA update 7.

Did you checksum it? There's not an awful lot of reason for it to fail that early and that catastrophically when it demonstrably doesn't for several other testers (see the validation results filed so far). -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

F17-Alpha DVD basic install success with comments
I just successfully used the F17-Alpha DVD to do an install, and it went very smoothly. Of course, it was a simple install; minimal desktop, gave it a complete small HD, wired ethernet. I customize extensively, so I get the base in place, make it livable from the previous version, then expand it. Only two things of note: When it was booting, there were a lot of warnings at the start of the boot process about deprecated commands. And it took a long time for sshd and sendmail. Not sure why; timeouts? I used the custom layout manager, and on the screen where the disks are divided between those to be preserved and those to be overwritten, the arrows didn't work, they were grayed out. So I couldn't tell it to ignore disks. This is a great idea if you can get it working. The main fear factor is overwriting something unintentionally, and this would diminish that. It didn't matter because on the next page, partition layout, I just used the disk I intended. I liked that grub2 automatically put in boot stanzas for my existing Fedora installs - nice touch. Overall assessment - a smooth and positive experience. Thanks to all! -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test

Spontaneous reboots
I have not experienced any of the "wedges" since installing Nvidia's X server driver. However, I have experienced uncommanded instant reboots. I usually hear a click, and instantly the computer behaves as if the hardware reset has been pushed. Needless to say, there is no error message. The reboot may be associated with my doing something or it may happen when I am not at the console. I don't know if this has anything to do with the Nvidia driver a/d/or my installation of it. -- Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX N2469R c...@omen.com www.omen.com Developer of Industrial ZMODEM(Tm) for Embedded Applications Omen Technology Inc "The High Reliability Software" 10255 NW Old Cornelius Pass Portland OR 97231 503-614-0430 -- test mailing list test@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
