Hi Jackson,

Did you mean Sunday, August 10th? (UTC). That's the wiki page said.

By the way, I would like to come by. A great way to end summer break for 
me.

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] Testdrive hackfest.

[Ho Wan Chan]

Hello Jackson et. al,

I don't think it is a good idea to have a Google+ Hangout all day long, we
don't have enough manpower to do a 24-hour marathon just on Testdrive
business (we aren't the Ubuntu Community Team, don't forget).

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] Testdrive hackfest.

[Jackson Doak]

Good point. maybe if we have two, hour long segments where the hangout
is open. (maybe 1200 and 2000) I'd say the hackfest itself goes all
day (in irc) though, that will help with numbers.

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] Testdrive hackfest.

[Jackson Doak]

G+ hangout's is a good idea. i'll make one that runs all day.
I'm working on a wiki page for the hackfest, i'll link it soon.

Which weekend in august does everyone want? I can get to any, with the
possible exception of the 24th and 25th.
Also, should it cross over friday night or saturday night?

Howard: If you could leave the ubuntuGNOME fix for someone at the
hackfest that would be great.

Re: [Lubuntu-qa] Testdrive hackfest.

[Ho Wan Chan]

Hello Ubuntu and Lubuntu QA Team,

It's great that Jackson will finally hold a Testdrive Hackfest for us. I
got my UbuntuKylin Testdrive code merged in just today, which is great.

As for time, it will be difficult for me to join Jackson, since when he is
morning I am sleeping, and when we are both on IRC everyone else will be
asleep!!! So probably I can't join it, sorry.

As for the date, just pick any weekend. I don't think we should actually
fit it to Ubuntu Touch's final freeze. It will attract less contributors
and I don't think we can fit Ubuntu Touch images ibto Testdrive anyway.

So Jackson, just pick any date you want on August.

Regards,
Howard Chan (smartboyhw)
(K)ubuntu member, Ubuntu QA Team member

P.S. Jackson, maybe you should do the hackfest using Google+ Hangouts.
Also, do you want me to do the Ubuntu GNOME flavour addition to Testdrive
when I come back or just do it yourself? Maybe you can do it yourself or
let new interested contributors join in, it's just copying;) I will
investigate on adding the Netboot ISO when I come back from London on 31st
July.

You can break down our work into contributing testcases, or 
contributing results for those testcases :-) For learning about 
contributing test results, testing a daily iso is a great first start 
for learning how to submit test results and use the QATracker. Follow 
the tutorial:


https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO/Walkthrough

From there, look at dedicating a machine (real or virtual!) to testing 
the development release. You can install and update your machine as 
saucy is developed, and you can use it for testing as we track 
packages throughout the cycle. We call this cadence testing and we're 
currently inbetween weeks. Each testing week is announced and has a 
different focus for an application for you to test.


https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/Cadence/Saucy

Here's a few other links to look at to help you understand what we do 
and how we work as a team:

Dear Administrator,

I had registered in Brainstorm.ubuntu.com and I had posted a few ideas 
in it.  Now I wish to post another idea (perhaps it is only a silly 
idea) in that forum.  I didn't get that website when I searched it.  
It goes straight to http://community.ubuntu.com  . So I couldn't post 
it anywhere.  If the following Rationale & Solution is suitable to any 
of your forums I request you to post it.  Otherwise kindly send me the 
suitable link.  Since I am almost an illiterate in computer field 
please don't send me 'complicated' forums.


-- 


RATIONALE:
Copy to / Move to -- options inadequate:


'Copy to' & 'Move to' have mainly 2 active options.  For moving or 
copying a file to other folders, the option is Copy & Paste.  For 
frequent use a short-cut is needed.


SOLUTION:
Customise and add to the list:

Provide an option for customising the list of destinations of 'Copy 
to' & 'Move to'.  Options should be given for selecting any folder in 
'Home' & 'Desktop' and also for any selected sub-folder.  Give the 
option for customisation in a new background at the bottom of this 
list or give an icon against this.  An indication to show the change 
as we see in Trash icon (at the left bottom corner) is good here also.

Re: 13.10 daily image - Unity not launching after upgrade

[Nicholas Skaggs]

Vasudevan, yes, Mir is not yet default or active -- no worries your not 
running it ;-)


The second is to re-iterate what phil said. Read about partial 
upgrades.. Don't upgrade when you see them. Don't feel the need to 
upgrade hour or everyday even as it's just going to cause heartache if 
you upgrade a partial upgrade. Personally I upgrade something like 4-6 
times a week, and I do so manually, making sure I don't get any funny 
upgrades when I do.

Hi,

I'm not a ubuntu tester (I'm Lubuntu), so cannot answer about mir, 
however I do suggest you look closely at what an update & upgrade is 
planning to do as per the link on my earlier email [1]. If it is 
*not* offering a partial upgrade then there may be a gremiln in the 
works; if it *does* offer a partial upgrade, my advice is to refuse it 
and try again some 12 hours later.  However, at this early stage of 
testing  (in old language, we are still pre-alpha 2) things can get 
out of sync for a few hours. If you are in doubt of what an upgrade is 
proposing, ask on the #ubuntu-quality IRC channel.


Thank you for being a tester. Keep smiling and keep testing :)

Regards,

Phill.

Thanks, Nicholas and Phil.
I am not using virtualbox. I have two test environments - one is 
saucy-daily-guest image in kvm. Other is a bare metal installation

running alongside my 12.10 main desktop on a different partition.
I was getting these errors when trying to refresh daily build
using apt-get update and apt-get upgrade.
Yesterday I was able to download latest good zsync (i think it is
friday's image) from a location with faster connection, burned and
reinstalled on my test partition.
So I am good to continue my tests for now. It will be a problem if
I get the same error after the next apt-get upgrade.

Another question in this regard - does the display engine switch
over to mir automatically after an apt-get upgrade? Or is it a
user initiated task?
Is there any command to show which graphics engine is currently
running?
Thanks

Following on from what Nicholas said, when upgrading a test
ISO, please be aware of possibility of the upgrade not being
fully sync'd and asking to remove things, more details can be

Vasudevan, this is in a virtualbox image right? And your
using the 64-bit daily saucy image? Can you give us
anymore details about your setup that might help? If your
encountering issues, you can workaround them a couple ways.

1) Use a non-unity desktop enviroment. If something in
unity is broken, use lxde, xfce, or something else in the
interim.
2) Stay on an older image and don't upgrade until your bug
is fixed. Make sure you file it, but if your using a vm,
you should be able to clone it so you have a working
machine that you can use and a spare test version to check
and track progress on the bug preventing you from upgrading.

Thanks, Phil; Tried update/upgrade again today and still
can not boot/log into 13.10 after upgrade. During
upgrade, saw a bunch of errors like these
"(gtk-update-icon-cache-3.0:5767): GdkPixbuf-WARNING **:
Cannot open pixbuf loader module file
'/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/loaders.cache':

This likely means that your installation is broken."
Than I  reinstalled the older image from dvd and did an
update/upgrade;got the same errors.

Hi,

update & upgrade will indeed up date an installed
system, if you want to refresh your ISO for
installation then use zsync [1].

Re: QA Team - Introduction

[Nicholas Skaggs]

Martin, I'm with these guys! I want my good not only ordered online but 
delievered the same way. We can dream right? Let me provide you with 
some more information about the team :-)


You can break down our work into contributing testcases, or contributing 
results for those testcases :-) For learning about contributing test 
results, testing a daily iso is a great first start for learning how to 
submit test results and use the QATracker. Follow the tutorial:


https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO/Walkthrough

From there, look at dedicating a machine (real or virtual!) to testing 
the development release. You can install and update your machine as 
saucy is developed, and you can use it for testing as we track packages 
throughout the cycle. We call this cadence testing and we're currently 
inbetween weeks. Each testing week is announced and has a different 
focus for an application for you to test.

Here's a few other links to look at to help you understand what we do 
and how we work as a team:

Hello,

I am Martin and, whilst I may have little experience of QA, I am
particularly enthusiastic about contributing to my favourite
operating system.

I have a computing degree and have an interest in technology that
will probably only be sated when technologists crack a method for
cooking food via broadband and emailing it directly to our stomachs.

Thanks,
Martin

Re: QATeam - Introduction

JR, welcome to the team! Let me provide you with some links to 
opportunities that exist.

results for those testcases :-)


For contributing testcases, since you have programming skills, check out 
this page: 
http://developer.ubuntu.com/resources/cookbook/mobile/how-to-write-autopilot-tests/. 
Look interesting and cool? It's called autopilot and we could use more 
testcases written! Let me know if this interests you!


That said, it's not a bad idea to try contributing some test results 
first before diving into contributing testcases. For learning about 
contributing test results, testing a daily iso is a great first start

Hello,

My name is Julian.
I have been using Ubuntu for a number of years.
I don't have any experience with any of this. I just
want to help out.

I figured this would be a good way to give back to Ubuntu.

I am also back in school, taking a course on Python.
Maybe doing this will help me learn the language faster.

Thanks,

Julian
