That would be like

yes there should be a picture - looks like someone has edited the wiki 
and broken it somewhere

Re: Upgrading Precise to Trusty

2014-02-07 Thread Elfy

I should also add that the upgrade testing from 12.04.3 to 
14.04.latest-at-that-time was rather pristine.  I tried both an ISO 
image upgrade and one via `update-manager -c -d`.  Very predictable 
and stable results.  So, a bit of documentation word-smithing in the 
release notes for 14.04 may be sufficient. I'd also like to see other 
Xubuntu QA and developer folks also try out these two upgrade methods 
on Precise to Trusty before April and report their testing results in 
the usual place for upgrade testing:


64-bit: 
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/308/builds/57247/testcases
32-bit: 
http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/308/builds/57248/testcases


Anyone have a different perspective?

Richard



I'd not have thought so :)

Once we get to Beta 1 then I would expect to have been asking people to 
be looking at upgrades.

FYI

How does this align with our planning?

If it goes as smoothly as past point releases, it would require us to
do testing of the ISOs but I don't think much else (unless we want
to).

We hardly even manage to do that. 5 people running around doing all the 
tests.

Package testing - XFCE Core Group

2014-02-07 Thread Elfy

Phew ...  it's all a bit thick and fast at the moment ...

So following on from the other package testing we've been doing - it's 
time for the next group of tests.


*XFCE Core *

You can find them in the same place as the others -

http://packages.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/306/builds/55995/testcases

I promise that there will be just one more call for a group of tests - 
and I left the best one till last, the smallest :)


That said - we will be calling as soon as we can for testing for the few 
things we haven't landed yet that will need testing, I'll leave that for 
another day.


Now that we've cracked the majority of the package tests - the field 
should be clear for the Beta images - which are due at the ends of 
February and March.



Many thanks for your work helping to test Trusty with us.

GTK3 Indicators follow-up

2013-12-18 Thread Elfy

If you have been looking at these for us after the previous call [1]

If you are running with _nouveau_ and a 'GeForce 210' card.

Have you seen the indicator panel going transparent? 
http://i.imgur.com/mstzH87.png


Do you use xchat - does it revert to this randomly? 
http://i.imgur.com/IiIekKB.png


Open thunar - navigate to ~/.cache/upstart/ and open startxfce4.log

Do you see error's similar to this

   The program 'xfsettingsd' received an X Window System error.
   This probably reflects a bug in the program.
   The error was 'BadRRCrtc (invalid Crtc parameter)'.



If you see ANYTHING odd, not right, not sure with these indicators.

*Please let us know.*

Alphas - opting in/out : Cadence testing

2013-06-14 Thread Elfy
At the meeting this week we decided to opt out of Alpha1 and concentrate 
on Alpha 2 and 3.


The release schedule has now been amended. [1]

There is no Alpha3, only 1 and 2

Alpha1 is due June 27th which is sometime around Cadence week 2

Alpha2 is due July 25th (between cadence weeks 3 and 4)

Are we going to now work with Alpha1 and 2 - I assume so.

Beta 1 is due August 29th

Final Beta due September 26th

As far as cadence testing goes - we want to try and work in any specific 
tests during those weeks. [2]


To do that we need to have tests ready.

A suggestion. if for no other reason than to start a discussion, perhaps do

Cadence week 2 - office apps (abiword manual test written, gnumeric in 
progress)

Cadence week 3 - empty for the moment
Cadence week 4 - web apps (firefox written, xchat written, thunderbird 
written, pidgin in hand)

Cadence week 5 - empty for the moment
Cadence week 6 - media apps (nothing written)

I've got a testcase in hand for the new greeter.

But we need some pointers as to what we need to work with and some sort 
of prioritisation for them all. There is a bug list for these manual 
tests [3]. Can people look and help with at least prioritising.


Thanks
