But the "netbook-remix" LP project (or the "unr" superproject) is certainly appropriate as well for filing bugs. Many community users of unr file bugs here for the Hardy based versions of unr released by the OEM team, and many still do for the Jaunty version. It has acted as the upstream bug tracker for unr. Going forward it's important to make sure appropriate bugs entered in the unr LP project get marked "Also effects distribution - Ubuntu" so that the distro team knows about them.

Re: Ubuntu Netbook Remix beta candidate testing
Hi Tobin, I fixed the setting for "input source" as you suggest and I also had to change the "Sound Preferences" as follows: Go into "Sound Preferences" and change the "Audio Conferencing" options: Set "Sound playback" to "PulseAudio Sound Server" Set "Sound capture" to "PulseAudio Sound Server" And, under "Default Mixer Tracks" option: Set the Device to "HDA Intel (Alsa Mixer)" Some other combinations may work as well or better, but this combination worked for me on two different Aspires. Sound Recorder and Audacity are both now able to record in the UNR beta. Thanks for your help!

Re: Ubuntu Netbook Remix beta candidate testing
To get audio recording with the external mic, you need to open the sound mixer panel (click on the speaker in the task bar), select the options tab, and change the input source from I-Mic to E-Mic. You may need to enable this tab in the preferences window.

Re: Ubuntu Netbook Remix beta candidate testing
Very nice UI, the USB install was easy to work with, and the system boots up quickly. I think this beta is a revolutionary release. I installed it on two different models of the Acer Aspire One - one has a hard disk, the other has SSD. Overall, it seems to work quite well and looks good. (I couldn't get Sound Recorder working with a plug-in microphone but recording with Audacity worked fine. I will log the test results.) I also successfully launched the live version on a Compal Jax 10 (no touch screen or wireless working, but fine with a USB mouse and wireless adapter.)

Preserving file/directory permission in NFS
Hi All, I was trying to configure my NFS, but for some reason I couldn't be able to get the same permission of my files when I mounted it on my other system. e.g: In Server: /mntdir drwxrwxrwt 2 root root 4096 2009-03-25 08:49 tmp In Client, I got: drwxr-xr-x2 root root0 Jan 1 00:00 tmp Any idea how to fix it?

Yes, it can be installed and works well! It helps if you increase the panel size for touch and there's also a gconf key that increases the button/widget sizing in the launcher, so it's easier to use with touchscreens (needs a restart of the launcher): gconftool-2 --set /apps/netbook-launcher/tablet_mode --type BOOL true this setting could be a bit rough around the edges, but I use UNR on my Samsung Q1 daily, and it seems fine.

Ubuntu Netbook Remix beta candidate testing
There is only a short time left before 9.04 beta, but a beta candidate is available at: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/cdimage/ubuntu-netbook-remix/daily-live/current/jaunty-netbook-remix-i386.img If you have a netbook, and would like to help, grab the image and a USB stick to boot from and head over to: http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/test/2475 There you will find some basic test plans for testing the install of UNR. While you are waiting on the image to download, you may wish to create an account on http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com so you can log your test results. Even if you are not ready to install a beta of Jaunty UNR on your netbook, you can still help by running through the live boot test that is listed there. Please let us know about any bugs you find, and whether the installs passed or failed on your hardware.
