 Of course it should, otherwise it is just the same test as that of the
 builtin screen:

Yes, you are right. You can figure it out from the testcase title, but
in fact it's not so clear in the description.

Feel free to correct it if you want/have time, otherwise I'll do it asap.

Thanks in advance.


 Moreover, only Ubuntu (other distro no?) have laptop qa's?

Are you talking about distro (Debian, Fedora etc.) or flavours
(K/X/Lubuntu etc)?

Laptop qa is principally hardware related (kernel issues), so
architecture (i386, amd64, amd64+mac) does matter, flavours doesn't
(or just for some specific things).

I hope this helps,
Ciao! :-)

Oh, thanks. I will try when I can.

 Hello all,

 First things first; could you please check out the following bugs 
 the bot comments:

    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/969453
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/969485

 From what I learned by reading is that when testing It is recommended
 *not* to do an update (e.g; UM or dist-upgrade) for the sake of not
 breaking the system, so why am I being asked by the bot to do that?

Charlie already answered your question, but I just want to add an
important thing about that.
If you are testing laptop in a live environment you can't do a
dist-upgrade obviously.
However you can test last dev kernel just booting  the daily ISO image
containing it.

To check if the current daily is using the expected kernel just boot
it and then run uname -rv from a terminal.

Ciao!
