Hi all Can you explain the below mentioned defect more clearly. Any suggestion on how to reproduce this?
Shared memorize on ivy on adhoc network and ended up with 6 ivy’s around the memorize activity! Not sure how this is possible, see: https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/_Oov9ppYnvvKIAHN1n0m8dMTjNZETYmyPJy0liipFm0?feat=directlink Link for the above defect raised in OLPC-Au: http://dev.laptop.org.au/issues/1167 Regards Deepak On 17 March 2012 15:01, Tabitha Roder <[email protected]> wrote: > Testing Summary, Auckland - 17 March 2012 > Who: Fabiana, John, Oliver, Rachel, Tom > > Tested build “30 customized” on XO-1.75 and “build 206 11.3.1-au” on XO > 1.5. > > XO-1.5 Summary (details below): > Power saving blanks the screen while recording a video > Terminal font still too big > Jigsaw puzzle quite slow for complex puzzles > Saving custom Memorize games still a problem > Shared memorize had lots of Ivy’s clustered around it in the neighbourhood > Flipsticks doesn’t work so well > Visual match style changes don’t work > > XO-1.75 Summary (details below): > B1 clock reset breaks yum, makes recovery more difficult > Browse crashed, gained some insight into google docs stability > Chat is much less chatty on the network when used with the > schoolserver, suspend and resume really really good in this situation. > Maze crashes immediately when collaborating > > Power logs attached. > > > build 206 11.3.1-au on XO 1.5: > Rosella: > Record activity - works fine for photo and video. high and low res. > even long ones.
