Breathe deep. If you blink the next 2 weeks will be gone before you 
know it. And guess what? Quantal is COMING!

Sorry, I misspoke. I meant to say beta1, not beta2! ARM testers, you 
can find the test in question here:

Thanks!

Nicholas


Just in case you need the specific link ARM folks :-) Elfy asked, and 
it's worth passing along

Installed beta1, updated and upgraded and rebooted.

Very slow - unresponsive.

Odd black bar at top just underneath top 'panel'

Apparently a compiz bug - so I reported it - there's a screenshot 
attached to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/1064871


Rebooted - nothing at all.

No tty's.

Left it installed in case anyone has any idea how to get it booted

So Elfy reports upgrading from beta1 is pretty broken. If you've not yet 
taken the time to try, I would suggest holding off for now and focusing 
on the daily images. We've got the results we needed :-) We've had a 
couple confirmed successful installs using the daily images as well, so 
if you want to see how nice the experience is now, give it a whirl.

2012-10-10 Thread Carla Sella
I tested today's daily image 
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/20121010/quantal-desktop-armhf+omap4.img.
When I click on Libreoffice Calc I get a crash, Apport starts to report 
a bug, but then I get a message saying that the problem cannot be 
reported as I have some obsolete package versions installed.
What should I do, I mean it's today's image and the package version is 
already obsolete, should I apply all updates and see if the crash is 
still there or what ?

Thank you.

Carla.

That very strangely happens to me in 12.04 with gnome-shell. I don't think
its related, but anyway...

 I installed beta1 updated and upgraded and after first reboot desktop
 background was all grey with black lines, the launcher blue, very strange.
 Moving the mouse around messes the screen.
 I am now applying other updates, I will let you know if these problems get
 fixed.

That said, our testing focus this week needs to be around the critical

new suggestion feature (on and off :-) ), and compiz performance and 
regressions. Don't forget about the other new features in quantal -- 
webapps, libreoffice global menus, etc. In addition for those in ARM, 
please take a moment this week to do a couple tests:


1) Install beta2 and upgrade to the current archive version. Note any

2) Install the daily and report results
3) Report results of how well unity is running -- responsive and

This week in QA

2012-10-02 Thread Nicholas Skaggs
This week in QA is preparation for Unity 6.8, which will contain some 
bugfixes for the items found in testing Unity 6.6. Thanks to all of our 
testers who help out on this effort! For those who are able to help, 
look for some specific regression testing after the feature lands. You 
can track it at the following link:


https://launchpad.net/unity-lens-shopping/+milestone/6.8.0

In addition, you may have seen that I am personally participating in a 
charity-a-thon, and this Thursday I'll be working for 24 hours straight 
in support of my charity, WaterAid. I've made a special challenge to the 
QA community (that's all of you!) to donate, perform installations and 
testing, get support and some personal time with me and come hangout. 
Check out my post as to my plans for the day, and plan to participate 
yourself as well:


http://www.theorangenotebook.com/2012/10/preparing-for-community-charity-thon.html

Here's to building towards a great release,

This week in QA

2012-09-17 Thread Nicholas Skaggs
Hello All. I just wanted to mention a few things that are going on this 
week with quantal and plans for testing. Beta 2 is coming up next week 
and the first images will land by Monday. Be prepared next week for iso 
testing :-)


For those of you running quantal, there's some interesting changes landing;

a new photos lens, and a new gwibber lens (still coming!)
remote login support in the greeter
new wallpaper packages
more llvmpipe and unity improvements

And for everyone else, check out the new and improved 
https://errors.ubuntu.com/ site. If you haven't seen the site before, it 
collects stats (for those who opt-in) on crashes that happen on ubuntu. 
You can see common trends, common bugs encountered and some nice graphs 
depicting what's happening in both quantal and precise.
