* This build is missing some pieces for proper IP connectivity. Do not use it for AP or mesh testing. Build 502 was better. This build is good for looking at activities.
- Kim


==Purpose of test group release notes==
* Text color is not selectable from text tab in Oficina, and instead defaults to the currently selected "Shapes" interior color.
* Undo and Redo in Oficina does not work properly with the grayscale function. I can undo the effect, but not Redo it.
* There is no way to remove part of an image in Oficina except with the eraser. I cannot select something and delete it (actually, there's no cut/copy/paste functionality at all).
* Web and Oficina cannot be shared.
* Journal entries that have copied to the clipboard now have a proper icon, but still cannot be pasted.
* Journal is no longer displaying storage devices at the bottom of the screen. That entire area that lets you switch between journal and storage devices has been removed (either that or it cannot detect any of them, but it usually at least displayed the Journal icon anyway).
* Basic Journal features like Go Back and Erase are taking a very long time.
* When using ctl+alt+F3 to return from the console to Sugar, I am automatically returned to the Home view, regardless of whether I was in an activity or mesh view before. Not sure if this is intentional.
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2153 Clicking the "Stop Download" option on a clipboard selection does not stop the download.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2147 Text insertion boxes get stuck on canvas in Oficina.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2146 Selection box in Oficina disappears after moving the selection.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2140 Oficina activity icon does not share the user's color on the activity donut.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/2142 Fill feature in Oficina does nothing.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2144 Camera sometimes becomes misaligned.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2154 Brush size menu in Oficina should not be numerical]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2157 Color in a picture becomes corrupted sometimes in Oficina.]
- John
* Can't open things from the clipboard. I have tried (new) paint and write activities.
* New paint does not have startup notification (throbbing the icon in the donut)
- Cameron


If you are interested in developing or testing builds that are not yet released, come to this page first and see if the build has any major problems.
==Build 502==
If it can't even pass the Smoke Test, you probably don't want to waste time loading it.

* I was able to open two XOs on the train and they came up and saw each other in their neighborhood mesh views! There were no servers or access points anywhere in the vicinity. I was not able to share any activity, but they did see each other.
If you don't see anything here on the latest build, please add your notes on smoke test and/or basic functionality to help the next guy. <br>
* I was able to connect one XO to my home WEP AP; after it was up and running with a good connection to the internet, I booted the second XO, and it connected to the local mesh. It made sure it did NOT connect to the AP, but only to the local mesh and it was able to get to the internet through the first XO!

* Next we have to make the collaboration work...

==Build 499==
[http://olpc.download.redhat.com/olpc/streams/development/build499/devel_jffs2/ChangeLog Change Log] <br>
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2095 Journal is not displaying any entries.]
* XOs are constantly losing the ability to access the internet and then gaining it again.
* Web is not displaying webpages properly. Sections that are supposed to be white don't fill the window completely.
* The mesh connection indicator in home view now sometimes works, and the icons in neighborhood view sometimes blink properly when working, but they still don't a lot of the time. In fact, now, instead of saying that I'm not connected when I am (as was the case in [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1950 #1950], the bigger problem is it saying that I am connected when I'm not. It may be the case that the mesh network status is changing so frequently that the XO is constantly playing catchup and never actually displaying the current state.
* In Browse, the icon for the "Stop" button in the Browse tab is broken.
- John
* At olpc I connected to a mesh network that really had no internet connectivity - so I can't ping or browse. Dan suggested this might be the case of an XO that was connected to the internet and then lost its connectivity; but is still advertising a mesh. All of us here will connect to that -- and we can see a few other XOs, but we won't get to the internet if that mesh is not connected. I will write up a few bugs on this.
* Clicking on the infrastructure AP worked, updated my laptop IP address, and I was able to get to the internet that way.
- Kim
* Still no labels on the login screen
* The following eye is kinda creepy in Record
* I can't tell which mode I am in, Video or Photo [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2101 bug 2101], fixed in v14 of Record
* Font in toolbar tabs change color randomly, I have seen mixed black and white, and green [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2102 bug 2102] marked as a dup of [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2102 bug 1837]
* Progress bar in Browse obscures the location url [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2103 bug 2103]
* web pages with flash content have serious rendering issues [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2104 bug 2104]
* paint activity will not close [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2105 bug 2105]

==Build 496==
[http://olpc.download.redhat.com/olpc/streams/development/build496/devel_jffs2/ChangeLog Change Log] <br>


=== candidate-801 ===
* Has new kernel, including almost all of our current work, including suspend/resume, up to date libertas driver, 2.6.22 kernel, etc. Still lacking:
<tt>sudo olpc-update candidate-801</tt> from candidate-800 worked fine for me. -- [[User:Skierpage|skierpage]] 04:45, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
** frame buffer driver patch for dcon control, ergo dpms/screen saver broken
* X server is FC7 based, but:
** evdev driver not present, so [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1875 Super-sensitive tap-to-click] is still a problem, and seems to be worse than before; it's to the point of rendering the XO completely unusable.
**[http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1837 Fonts rendering is broken]; fix should be in next build.
* B2 cannot get on the mesh.
* The icon for closing activities is broken.
* New Journal icon to address [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1962 #1962.]
* Battery indicator now displays properly.
* Even worse performance problems on B2 than usual. B2 takes ~5 minutes to boot, and sometimes lags severely or hangs indefinitely as soon as the Sugar UI loads - completely unusable.
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2075 Connect sometimes desyncs player turns.]
- John + Jim


=== candidate-800 ===
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2059 iwlist and iwconfig are hanging indefinitely]
<tt>sudo olpc-update candidate-800</tt> from build 767 worked fine for me. Wireless connectivity to my old Linksys BEFW11 router with 128-bit WEP worked OK, but I still am disconnected for a while after resuming from standby until the XO gives up on mesh. -- [[User:Skierpage|skierpage]] 2009-01-26

...
* "My Name" and "My Color" don't appear on B4s.

==Build 495==
Passed smoke test by Bpepple. Booted and tried by Reuben and Kim. <br>
[http://olpc.download.redhat.com/olpc/streams/development/LATEST/devel_jffs2/ChangeLog Change Log]
Cursor control problems reported but not proved worse or better than before.


Booted and tried briefly by iXo . Unable to connect to either WEP or WPA access points. Some errors during on console during bootup, mostly to do with JFFS and xauth. Will investigate further in next few days. (Contact via email, or post on User Talk page. --[[User:Ixo|ixo]] 07:52, 5 January 2009 (UTC) )
* The "My Name" and "My Color" text now properly displays on B3s in the intro screen, but the text is very large (intentional?)
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2039 The XO cannot load Sugar on build 495.]

[http://dev.laptop.org/~cjb/76x_changelog cscott's Changelog]; [http://dev.laptop.org/~rwh/announcer/release8.2-pkgs.html rwh's Changelog]
[http://olpc.download.redhat.com/olpc/streams/development/LATEST/devel_jffs2/ChangeLog Change Log]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2078 Large amounts of lag when clicking activity icons from the taskbar]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2060 Storage device icons are not removed from Journal after removing without unmounting first.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2057 Erase option in journal does not remove files from storage devices.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2056 No way to copy files to a storage device; drag and drop is broken.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/2055 Copying in Paint does not add an image to the clipboard.]

* No more graphical errors on B2s.
* Both mesh view and access point icons appear in Home view and indicate that they have no connectivity, but I am able to connect to the internet just fine (usually). Sounds like the problem mentioned in #1910, but it's now occurring with access point icons as well.
* Write now properly adds an icon to the mesh view when shared.
* Still has all the same problems seeing and displaying other XOs, and B2s still seem to see fewer than B3s.
* Clipboard selections can now be picked manually from the left side. Intended functionality.
* Had my first opportunity to join a shared activity, which properly updated the right side of the frame to display the users in the activity, but I couldn't tell whether or not the user I was collaborating with could see any of the things I was doing.
- John

[http://dev.laptop.org/~rwh/announcer/release8.2-pkgs.html Changelog]
== Build 488 ==
Change log:


'''Install'''
Base OS:
* I did a cleaninstall on one laptop and an olpc-update (from 760) on another. Both upgrades completed and the laptops booted up.
* NetworkManager 1:0.6.5-0.8.svn2627.olpc2
* The activity updater launched and got the latest activities from /Activities/G1G1/8.2.0, but did not pull down the content or collections. [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/8493 #8493], marked as a blocking bug for 8.2
** fix assert when selecting mesh network
* NOTE: After changes to the wiki page, the content is also getting updated properly.
* dbus-python 0.82.0-2.olpc2
** fix cpu hogging issues


'''Activities'''
* telepathy-salute 0.1.3.1-0.1.20070705darcs.olpc2
* Started many activities and tested for basic funcationality. Results are now being logged in the test restults page: [[TestResults_8.2.0]]
** enable the extra OLPC bits for tubes


'''Collaboration'''
* avahi-autoipd 0.6.20-3.fc7
* This build has now been loaded onto the 30 laptop test bed and a number of smaller testbeds. All standard collaboration continues to work as in the last release.
** have a Require(pre) on shadow-utils so /usr/bin/adduser doesn't fail during install
** this should fix connection to the mesh when there are no school servers or mesh portals
* Simple mesh collaborates, connection to an AP, and connection/registration to a school server -- no regressions.


=== Build 8.2-760 ===
* /etc/asound.conf
** fix the capture source to be the mic


* changelog?
* pull in gnome-python2-gnomevfs
* make ext3 build slightly smaller than 1G so it fits on 1G flash drives


'''Startup/upgrade'''
Activities:
* I upgraded some laptops from 759 to 760 via olpc-update. The upgrade was followed by the activity update, which completed without problems (about 6 laptops). Additionally, Joe, Mel and Frances upgraded 39 laptops without any problem.
* TamTam
* I upgraded via cleaninstall on 3 laptops. The machines booted and the activity update completed without problems.
* Journal integration
* New sounds
* Beats per page in edit
* Keyboard recording in edit
* Network not yet working


'''Network/connectivity'''
* Connected to open and WEP access points.
* When connected to WEP AP, my two laptops at home also saw each other.
* I turned the radio off on one laptop and the other's neighborhood view continued to show the XO even the next morning...[http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/8441 #8441]. After turning the radio back on, the two neighborhood views won't sync up again. They can't see each other to share any new activities.
* After a while I tried to share write and they were able to see the write doc.


'''Activities'''
* You can see other XOs in the mesh and group views now! People can share activities and everything! This is awesome.
* Chat, Write, Record (video, still, and voice), Pippy, Tamtam jam, Browse all started and performed as expected.
* Most important thing: ''XOs are VERY erratic about detecting other XOs,'' especially after bootup. On the vast majority of bootups I wasn't able to detect any XOs. When I did it was usually 2. On one instance, I detected 10-12. I had 3 sitting in front of me so I should have at least been consistently finding those. In general, the B3 seems to have an easier time finding them than the B2s. (Other activities that require the internet work fine.)
* Browse shows no Library content! [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/8493 #8493]
* Can still be spotty about connecting to the mesh in the first place, making the whole problem of detecting XOs doubly messy.
* No more crashes from presence service, or at least not in my experience.
* Had no trouble opening eToys on a B3, but can confirm that it won't launch on a B2.
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1953 User name's don't appear in group view.]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1958 XOs remain on another XO's mesh view even after they've been shut off]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1955 XOs can't always see each other in neighborhood view]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1960 Connect's activity buttons don't always display properly]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1961 Battery indicator is inaccurate]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1964 Icons overlapping each other in mesh view]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1963 Activities appear to time out, then reappear]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1965 Write does not create an icon in the mesh view when shared]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1967 XO user names sometimes don't appear properly]
* In the neighborhood view, the "Make Friend" option properly shouldn't appear if the user is already your friend.
* Resuming TamTam from the journal just brings the user to the main screen, rather than the file he was working on. It still seems to use the traditional save/load system and isn't fully integrated with journal.
- John
----
* From home with a B2, and no connection to a mesh; I had to add a wep key a few times to get it to connect to AP. Then I tried to open etoys and it will never open.
* J5 said he was able to open eToys with this code on a B3 with no problem. Not sure what his network connection was.
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1950 Mesh connectivity issue]: From work, my B2 successfully connected to the mesh and I browsed the internet, but the mesh icon continues to blink the full inside circle (which used to mean it hasn't finished connecting); and in the home view, the mesh is still grey.
* eToys doesn't start for me at work either. It continues to fade in and out as if it is trying to start, but never gets past that. The Journal never records that eToys was running.

==Build 486==
Change log:
*Base OS:
** ext3 qemu builds
*** now boot again
*** have a scalled grub option for running on smaller screens


'''Ethernet connection'''
* Mousing over the context menu of a clipboard selection no longer removes the Frame, but only if the clipboard selection is a file rather than a clipping.
* My D-Link DUB-E100 USB Ethernet adapter does not work with this build. No connection.
* The Remove option on a clipboard selection's context menu does not work properly, but only if the clipboard selection is a file rather than a clipping.
* Pressing F3 with the cursor in the Frame area no longer allows the Frame to be toggleable in Home view. This is the intended functionality.
* XO is still having trouble connecting to the mesh upon startup, and the presence service hogging memory is still a major problem.
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1937 Journal entry names are not preserved in list view]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1934 Tooltips from activity buttons are getting stuck on screen]
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1935 Shared activities remain in the neighborhood view even after no one is using them]
- John


'''Collaboration'''
* 29 laptops connected to a school server and running Chat, Browse and (in the case of 3 laptops) also Write survived the overnight collaboration.
* 5 out of 10 laptops on the mesh network running Chat and Record (in the Photo mode) stopped collaborating after the overnight run. 3 of those laptops were also running Write; in one of the 'invited' laptops Write disappeared by the morning; the laptop itself was still operational; other two laptops still running Write stopped collaborating.

==== Screen pulsing, out-of-memory ====
Twice with 8.2-759 my G1G1 machine has had the screen flash on and off coming out of a "standby" (screen off) state. The second time seemed a memory pressure state, I typed some memory commands at random and saved the output at [[User:Skierpage/out-of-memory]] -- [[User:Skierpage|Skierpage]] 23:41, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

* Paint no longer breaks the donut! However, it still has the problem of creating a grey mesh icon on the donut when tabbing between activities ([http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1759 #1759])
* Several of the frame/zoom bugs have been fixed, as was noted; however, it is still possible to unlock the Frame in home view by pressing the F3 button while in an activity with the cursor in the Frame area. For more detailed reference see [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1243 #1243.]

==== Connectivity test results ====
==Build 482==
* 40+ laptops were upgraded with olpc-update 8.2-757; some with copy-nand of the os757.img; some with olpc-update 8.2-757.
NOTE: This build will allow laptops to only communicate with other laptops with 482 or higher. Also, the school server needs to have upgraded to the latest marvell firmware and anycast needs to be turned on.
* Laptops booted up properly, but some of them required reinstallation of the build.
* Connected to simple mesh 11 (all mesh circles are showing again in this release!), some of the laptops left and rejoined the mesh periodically.
* Connected properly to School Server AP (open, no encryption)
* Upgraded many activities well through activity updater (some activities had to try twice)
* Connected to canopy (WPA), and olpc (WEP) APs and browsed the web correctly.
* Ran Chat, Browse and Write sharing on laptops connected to a school server. Out of 30+ laptops, only two couldn't see the Write's icon in the "Group" view. Other machine happily shared those activities.
* Ran Chat and Write sharing on 10 laptops connected to over the simple mesh. Sugar suddenly restarted in several laptops already sharing Write, when one of other laptops joined sharing the Write. After sharing of Chat and Wtite was restored, laptops starting behaving properly.


==== olpc-update ====
Running <tt>olpc-update 8.2-757</tt> to update from joyride-2301:
* Always reports <tt> Contents manifest failure at line 383 Last file examined: localtime</tt> when <tt>Trying irsync_pristine</tt>. This happens to many upgraders, filed <trac>8190</trac> for investigation.
* Then X always restarts in <tt>Trying irsync_dirty</tt>, probably <trac>5954</trac> "oom-killer during olpc-update". A workaround may be to NOT run the command in [[Terminal Activity]], but instead in a [[console]], possibly in the background.
-- [[User:Skierpage|Skierpage]] 06:52, 28 August 2008 (UTC)


* Updates worked pretty well on 32 laptops, some had to be initiated several times; but once they were up they all connected to the Zoom AP, and registered with the school server.
Change Log: <http://olpc.download.redhat.com/olpc/streams/development/build482/devel_jffs2/ChangeLog>
* Some laptops were clean-installed as well. One had to be rebooted as the wireless didn't come the first time.
* All 32 laptops are connected to AP to a school server. Chat was started on one laptop and shared with all the others. Browse was started on one laptop and bookmarks were shared across many laptops. The next morning they were ALL still running (no crashes, no sugar reboots, chat and browse still active); and the chat continued to work across all machines.
* On many machines in the neighborhood view, the circle of XOs around the shared activity disappeared. The shared activity is still there and others can still join it: <trac>8184</trac>.

==== Activities ====
This build doesn't include avahi-autoip, so it will not get on the mesh. There should be another build today (7/3) or tomorrow (7/4) that can get on the mesh. It can connect to an infrastructure access point. (Unless it is WPA AP, which are increasingly common... -[[User:Zack|Zack]])


: '''Record-57:''' Only a single frame appears on the screen. Attempt to take a photo causes the busy mouse to appear for a long time (forever?). Shall I file a bug? [[User:Jpritikin|Jpritikin]] 16:19, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

=== Build joyride-2301 ===
------
'''XOs being used for the initial test were running the following:'''
* I was able to connect to my home AP with WEP key. One XO worked the first time and one of them took about 3 tries of entering the WEP key (and I'm pretty confident I used the right key).
: '''Build:''' Joyride-2301
* On another XO, when it wouldn't connect to my AP, I logged in as root, typed 'ifconfig' and saw that there was no eth0 interface. I typed 'ifup eth0' twice (the first time it failed). And then it connected to my AP. (I'll write this up as a bug)
: '''Firmware:''' CL1 Q2E12 Q2E
* After the first XO connected to the infrastructure AP, I tried to connect the second XO via the Mesh. That was never able to connect, but I did see that an 'olpc-mesh' ad-hock network shows up on iStumbler.
: '''Libertas:''' 5.110.22.p17
* I was able to open a number of activities (pretty much one at a time) and do some basic testing. Everything responded very slowly and gets incredibly slow after only a few minutes of trying to test. When it got to the point of no response in about 60 seconds (for something that usually takes only a few seconds), then I would reboot.
* I'm not sure how to close some activities.
* At this point I think we can start adding bugs to trac.
- Kim


'''XOs being used for the initial test were connected to the internet through School Wifi.'''
* The B2 essentially can't run build 478 for whatever reason. Takes extremely long to do the most basic things, and hangs a lot. It also runs noticeably slower than other builds on the B3 in terms of load times and lag (especially noticeable when tabbing between programs). One of the most noticeable things is the cursor frequently lagging and then "catching up."
: '''Telepathy:''' gabble
* Switching between the console and Sugar causes a lot more lag than in other builds. On the B2, it was enough lag to hang the system permanently.
: '''Jabber:''' schoolserver.media.mit.edu
* On one bootup, the mouseclick and keyboard stopped working, though the mouse still scrolled. Anything that should have triggered a dropdown menu or tooltip did not. Rebooting solved the problem.
: '''essid:''' media lab 802.11
* If you switch from Neighborhood view to Home view while moused over a wireless access point or mesh portal icon, the icon's tooltip will persist through the switch and stay on the screen, even after you open activities. They will go away if clicked.
: '''Channel:''' 11
* Graphics and icons frequently get "stuck" in the upper right hand corner. Often, if there is a tab or some other icon in the upper right corner, the tab will persist, either in its original form, or as a grey box of the same size, when you switch views.
* There are a number of graphical glitches that occur only on B2s. For many icons and images, half will appear properly, but the other half is corrupted.
* Journal no longer opens automatically. The icon appears on the donut, but the window doesn't open until the donut icon is clicked. I think this is intentional? It's a good change, as it was a pain to have to wait for the Journal to load before doing anything else.
* When tabbing back into Journal, large portions of the window are obscured/grey.
* That Chat icon in Journal does not match the Chat icon on the taskbar.
* Switching between photos and videos in Camera is very unintuitive right now. Looks like part of the GUI is broken. The only way to switch between them is to use the two arrow buttons under the Camera tab and keep pressing the eye until it turns red, even though the first arrow button never becomes deselected. The word "Activity" in the Activity tab changes colors as you do this for some reason. Eventually, if you've tabbed around for long enough, the GUI will correct itself and behave normally.
* Lots of activities can only be quit with alt-C.
* Overall, the most notable problems (aside from some major holdovers from previous builds like the Paint donut bug) are performance issues and graphical glitches. Tabbing between different views and programs both lags the system and messes up icons and tabs.
- John


'''Activities:'''
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1226 Neighborhood view tooltips] are not fixed in this build.
: Same results as 2294.
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1879 Camera mode icons] are not fixed in this build.
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/1880 No live output from camera.]
- [[User: Zack|Zack]]


'''Miscellaneous:'''
: The main difference between joyride-2301 and joyride-2294 is that 2301 has had the automatic idle-suspend defaulted to OFF. If you need to or want to test how idle-suspend may or may not break things, use the following commands in a virtual terminal to turn it on or off as needed.
: To disable idle-suspend, type the following: <tt>touch /etc/ohm/inhibit-idle-suspend</tt>
: To (re-)enable idle-suspend, type the following: <tt>rm /etc/ohm/inhibit-idle-suspend</tt>
Or apparently you can simply use the Sugar Control Panel / Power pane (under the XO guy in Home/Favourites view). The Automatic Power Management checkmark option creates or deletes the above file.


==Build 472 notes==
=== Build joyride-2294 ===
'''XOs being used for the initial test were running the following:'''
* XO is not getting on the mesh.
: '''Build:''' Joyride-2294
==> (J5) For now if you want you can log into root at a terminal and type:

'''XOs being used for the initial test were connected to the internet through School Wifi.'''
* Some activities loaded and started up... the camera keeps hanging for me; I did get a picture out of it before the activity got hung up.
: '''Telepathy:''' gabble
* The activities that did start up showed up in the journal, and provided a more detailed view. Resume worked for me on the newsreader activity which had started up properly.
: '''Jabber:''' schoolserver.media.mit.edu
- Kim
: '''essid:''' media lab 802.11
: '''Channel:''' 11


'''Activities:'''
* Like Kim said, the mesh is very broken. It couldn't successfully connect to begin with, so I had no internect connection. Also, if you go to Neighborhood and right-clicked on the Mesh icon, it (as well as all the wireless access points) disappeared from the view.
: '''Browse-95:''' Viewing source results in a file with incorrect (non-Write/abiword) MIME-type. (<trac>7860</trac>)
* Additionally, right-clicking on a wireless access point icon got me stuck in Neighborhood view - couldn't open frames or switch views.
: '''Chat-45:''' XMPP 1:1 chats work fine with a non-XO. <trac>7633</trac> appears to be fixed.
* The biggest improvement seems to be that Journal appears to be working a lot better. Resume and preview work now, and search appears to at least open up a search window, though it doesn't find much (unless I type nothing in the text field).
: '''Read-49:''' PDF files load in Read now (<s><trac>7615</trac></s>), but shared Read activities do not send the PDF file to XOs that join the activity.
* Shared activities now appear on the mesh.
: '''Record-56:''' No unexpected behavior aside from a crash to the Home view that seemed isolated; will look into it.
* I can't quit out of journal anymore, which is good.
: '''Write-57:''' No unexpected behavior.
* If the user is supposed to be able to click with the trackpad, the sensitivity is still off. On at least one occasion I moused over the "shutdown" option in the middle of the screen and phantom-clicked it. Actually, that does highlight a potential flaw with the click-shutdown icon being in the middle of the screen - even without the trackpad problem, the chance of accidentally clicking it when, say, trying to click an icon on the donut, would be considerable.
* Didn't have any problems with Camera - all activities loaded fine for me except Paint and Call - but the real-time display is still not functional.
* Chat and Call have the same activity icon.
* Paint, rotate screen, and frame toggle are still broken in all the same ways as 466.
* When left idle for ~20 minutes, the screen's display bugged out. Looked like it was trying to go into suspend, but messed up.
- John


==Build 466 notes==


=== Build joyride-2263 ===
* Search feature in Journal is broken, and you cannot Resume from Journal.
'''XOs being used for the initial test were running the following:'''
* Journal is not on the taskbar, but unlike 465 it opens properly upon boot now. However, since I can still quit out of it with alt-C, there should either be a) a way to open it from the taskbar or b) no way to quit out of it.
: '''Build:''' Joyride-2263
==> Quit out of it with ctl c.
: '''Firmware:''' CL1 Q2E12 Q2E
* Opening Paint completely breaks the activity donut (this was a problem in 465 too). Once Paint is opened, icons no longer appear on the donut, and clicking the spaces on the donut will not switch you to that activity. All the icons for activities you open appear clipped on the left side of the screen. Also, Paint itself doesn't open properly either.
: '''Libertas:''' 5.110.22.p17
* Frequently, activities will open when I mouse over them on the taskbar but don't click them. This was an issue in 465 and it seems even more prevalent now.

* Mouse speed is still much higher than before (is this intentional?)
'''XOs being used for the initial test were connected to the internet through School Wifi.'''
* Frame Toggle key does not work.
: '''Telepathy:''' gabble
* Rotate screen key does not do anything.
: '''Jabber:''' schoolserver.media.mit.edu
* Cannot power down by pressing the power button - you must either use the option from the XO icon at the center of the donut, or hold down the power button.
: '''essid:''' media lab 802.11
* Read now has an icon for opening files (as opposed to 465), but it doesn't work.
: '''Channel:''' 11
* Camera still has no real-time display and the video function is still broken.

'''Activities:''' Measure doesn't display properly -- the waveform area is grey, but the Sugar interface up top and the scrollbar on the right show properly. TamTamJam does not start.(<trac>7467</trac> and <trac>7466</trac> respectively.)

'''Image Transferring and Invite:''' Copying to the clipboard and Journal appears to work, however the image cannot be pasted from the clipboard to the Write activity, nor can it be pasted by using the Image menu. (File is named "Clipboard object: ." for some reason -- possibly connected? See <trac>7468</trac>) The second XO experienced no visible issues when invited to the Write activity, and both laptops were able to share the activity and see each others' changes.

'''Installing an Activity Bundle (Browse):''' Implode installs, but hangs when running; maybe same issue as with TamTamJam? (Running Browse-92.)
:Not the same as TamTam. I mailed the Implode author with diagnosis info. It needs an update for new sugar/GTK+ API. Please test another activity instead, e.g. Distance (AcousticMeasure) -[[User:DanielDrake|DanielDrake]] 17:35, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

'''Installing a Library Bundle (USB):''' Wikibooks-4.xol is not installed (is not present in /home/olpc/Library/) after clicking start in the Journal. Possible MIME-type issue? Copying Wikibooks-4.xol to /home/olpc/Library/ from the USB stick did not fix the problem.

'''Installing a Library Bundle (Browse):''' Bible-en.xol downloads, but is not installed (is not present in /home/olpc/Library/). Clicking 'Start' in the Journal does not do anything -- possibly a MIME-type issue? (<trac>7427</trac>, running Browse-92.)
:7427 is unrelated, we need a new ticket -[[User:DanielDrake|DanielDrake]] 17:35, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

'''Installing a Library Bundle (offline):''' Phyla PDF downloads; when started through Journal, Read starts but no document appears. (Running Browse-92.)

'''Transfer files to USB stick:''' Clipboard image does not load on other XO; probably related to results from Browse/Write sharing.

=== Build 711 Q2e12 (8.1.2) ===

For this build I did some quick testing of sharing write, record, and chat between two laptops on simple mesh.

The only difference between this build and 709 below is a fix for the SD card. Should be no change in Wifi capabilities, sharing, or any individual activities functionality.

Specific tests for the bug fix can be found in the ECO check list for release:

For the per711-1, I did a cleaninstall (which is what they will need); boot up and checked for the new content.

* When you press the power button, nothing happens (if you hold it down for >5 seconds it shuts down immediately). This is going to be suspend soon...so think of it as a feature.
* To shut down, now you can use the icon on the home page. When you hover over your XO icon you will get see a shutdown flyover. This worked for me.
* I opened Abiword, wrote some text, then went to the journal. It showed a new entry, after another click or two I saw a third Abiword entry. None of them let me resume.
* I tried opening other activities (camera, calc, paint) and they would show up in the donut while it was trying to open, then just disappear.
* After closing the journal with CTL C, I was able to open another activity (paint).
* After some inactivity, the screen went into a suspend mode and resumed when I hit a key! (I believe that is the proper behavior)

If you are interested in developing or testing builds that are not yet released, come to this page first and see if the build has any major problems. If it can't even pass the Smoke Test, you probably don't want to waste time loading it.

If you don't see anything here on the latest build, please add your notes on smoke test and/or basic functionality to help the next guy.

NOTE: Entering issues on this page does NOT count as reporting them. Please enter bugs in Trac.
For information on how to report bugs, see: Reporting bugs

http://dev.laptop.org/~bert/8.2-8.2.1.html shows diffs between candidate OS images on the road to 8.2.1 and build 767 (8.2.0)

candidate-801

sudo olpc-update candidate-801 from candidate-800 worked fine for me. -- skierpage 04:45, 1 March 2009 (UTC)

candidate-800

sudo olpc-update candidate-800 from build 767 worked fine for me. Wireless connectivity to my old Linksys BEFW11 router with 128-bit WEP worked OK, but I still am disconnected for a while after resuming from standby until the XO gives up on mesh. -- skierpage 2009-01-26 ...

olpc-update staging-7

Passed smoke test by Bpepple. Booted and tried by Reuben and Kim.
Cursor control problems reported but not proved worse or better than before.

Booted and tried briefly by iXo . Unable to connect to either WEP or WPA access points. Some errors during on console during bootup, mostly to do with JFFS and xauth. Will investigate further in next few days. (Contact via email, or post on User Talk page. --ixo 07:52, 5 January 2009 (UTC) )

8.2 builds

Build 8.2-767 (candidate release)

Startup/Upgrade

  • Updated from 711 through olpc-update.
  • Boot up is a tad slower than 711, but otherwise, upgrade and boot up are flawless.

Network and mesh

  • Activities updated successfully and internet connection successful. Still have not tested a Mesh with multiple XOs

Programs and other stuff

  • Ran through the 1-Hour Smoke Test:
  • Log Viewer Activity did not function at all. It will not open period.
  • All other applications and features functioned as expected.
  • One time it did not shut down properly (Stayed on until the battery died!) but I have not had any problems since then.
  • Several other applications downloaded off the Wiki and installed on the XO through USB:
  • SimCity hangs after exiting. All other applications I tested worked correctly.
  • "shutdown -r" command does not properly shutdown XO. Regular shutdown methods still function (Mostly).

Build 8.2-765 (candidate release)

cscott's Changelog; rwh's Changelog

Build 8.2-763 (candidate release)

Changelog

Install

  • I did a cleaninstall on one laptop and an olpc-update (from 760) on another. Both upgrades completed and the laptops booted up.
  • The activity updater launched and got the latest activities from /Activities/G1G1/8.2.0, but did not pull down the content or collections. #8493, marked as a blocking bug for 8.2
  • NOTE: After changes to the wiki page, the content is also getting updated properly.

Activities

  • Started many activities and tested for basic funcationality. Results are now being logged in the test restults page: TestResults_8.2.0

Collaboration

  • This build has now been loaded onto the 30 laptop test bed and a number of smaller testbeds. All standard collaboration continues to work as in the last release.
  • Simple mesh collaborates, connection to an AP, and connection/registration to a school server -- no regressions.

Build 8.2-760

  • changelog?

Startup/upgrade

  • I upgraded some laptops from 759 to 760 via olpc-update. The upgrade was followed by the activity update, which completed without problems (about 6 laptops). Additionally, Joe, Mel and Frances upgraded 39 laptops without any problem.
  • I upgraded via cleaninstall on 3 laptops. The machines booted and the activity update completed without problems.

Network/connectivity

  • Connected to open and WEP access points.
  • When connected to WEP AP, my two laptops at home also saw each other.
  • I turned the radio off on one laptop and the other's neighborhood view continued to show the XO even the next morning...#8441. After turning the radio back on, the two neighborhood views won't sync up again. They can't see each other to share any new activities.
  • After a while I tried to share write and they were able to see the write doc.

Activities

  • Chat, Write, Record (video, still, and voice), Pippy, Tamtam jam, Browse all started and performed as expected.
  • Browse shows no Library content! #8493

Kimquirk 12:30, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Ethernet connection

  • My D-Link DUB-E100 USB Ethernet adapter does not work with this build. No connection.

Collaboration

  • 29 laptops connected to a school server and running Chat, Browse and (in the case of 3 laptops) also Write survived the overnight collaboration.
  • 5 out of 10 laptops on the mesh network running Chat and Record (in the Photo mode) stopped collaborating after the overnight run. 3 of those laptops were also running Write; in one of the 'invited' laptops Write disappeared by the morning; the laptop itself was still operational; other two laptops still running Write stopped collaborating.

Build 8.2-759

ChangeLog

Activities

Etoys: Saving fails if project name has non-ascii characters <trac>8212</trac>

Screen pulsing, out-of-memory

Twice with 8.2-759 my G1G1 machine has had the screen flash on and off coming out of a "standby" (screen off) state. The second time seemed a memory pressure state, I typed some memory commands at random and saved the output at User:Skierpage/out-of-memory -- Skierpage 23:41, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Build 8.2-757

Changelog_757

Connectivity test results

  • 40+ laptops were upgraded with olpc-update 8.2-757; some with copy-nand of the os757.img; some with olpc-update 8.2-757.
  • Laptops booted up properly, but some of them required reinstallation of the build.
  • Connected to simple mesh 11 (all mesh circles are showing again in this release!), some of the laptops left and rejoined the mesh periodically.
  • Connected properly to School Server AP (open, no encryption)
  • Upgraded many activities well through activity updater (some activities had to try twice)
  • Connected to canopy (WPA), and olpc (WEP) APs and browsed the web correctly.
  • Ran Chat, Browse and Write sharing on laptops connected to a school server. Out of 30+ laptops, only two couldn't see the Write's icon in the "Group" view. Other machine happily shared those activities.
  • Ran Chat and Write sharing on 10 laptops connected to over the simple mesh. Sugar suddenly restarted in several laptops already sharing Write, when one of other laptops joined sharing the Write. After sharing of Chat and Wtite was restored, laptops starting behaving properly.

olpc-update

Running olpc-update 8.2-757 to update from joyride-2301:

  • Always reports Contents manifest failure at line 383 Last file examined: localtime when Trying irsync_pristine. This happens to many upgraders, filed <trac>8190</trac> for investigation.
  • Then X always restarts in Trying irsync_dirty, probably <trac>5954</trac> "oom-killer during olpc-update". A workaround may be to NOT run the command in Terminal Activity, but instead in a console, possibly in the background.

-- Skierpage 06:52, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

  • Updates worked pretty well on 32 laptops, some had to be initiated several times; but once they were up they all connected to the Zoom AP, and registered with the school server.
  • Some laptops were clean-installed as well. One had to be rebooted as the wireless didn't come the first time.
  • All 32 laptops are connected to AP to a school server. Chat was started on one laptop and shared with all the others. Browse was started on one laptop and bookmarks were shared across many laptops. The next morning they were ALL still running (no crashes, no sugar reboots, chat and browse still active); and the chat continued to work across all machines.
  • On many machines in the neighborhood view, the circle of XOs around the shared activity disappeared. The shared activity is still there and others can still join it: <trac>8184</trac>.

Activities

Record-57: Only a single frame appears on the screen. Attempt to take a photo causes the busy mouse to appear for a long time (forever?). Shall I file a bug? Jpritikin 16:19, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
  • Test report from Wellington:

http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2008-September/018879.html

Build 8.2-756

(based on joyride 2324)

XOs being used for this testing are running the following:

Build: 756
Firmware: Q2E14
Libertas: test version of 5.110.22.p18 (0.0.0.p18)

Connectivity

At boot up after a cleaninstall the MP laptop defaulted to 'Channel 11'; but there are no simple mesh channels showing in the network neighborhood. Also, my two B4 laptops got no WLAN connection at all after boot up. You can click on an infrastructure AP, though. <trac>8133</trac>
Two laptops near each other but connected to an AP to the internet can no longer see each other. <trac>7972</trac>

Build joyride-2301

XOs being used for the initial test were running the following:

Build: Joyride-2301
Firmware: CL1 Q2E12 Q2E
Libertas: 5.110.22.p17

XOs being used for the initial test were connected to the internet through School Wifi.

Telepathy: gabble
Jabber: schoolserver.media.mit.edu
essid: media lab 802.11
Channel: 11

Activities:

Same results as 2294.

Miscellaneous:

The main difference between joyride-2301 and joyride-2294 is that 2301 has had the automatic idle-suspend defaulted to OFF. If you need to or want to test how idle-suspend may or may not break things, use the following commands in a virtual terminal to turn it on or off as needed.
To disable idle-suspend, type the following: touch /etc/ohm/inhibit-idle-suspend
To (re-)enable idle-suspend, type the following: rm /etc/ohm/inhibit-idle-suspend

Or apparently you can simply use the Sugar Control Panel / Power pane (under the XO guy in Home/Favourites view). The Automatic Power Management checkmark option creates or deletes the above file.

Build joyride-2294

XOs being used for the initial test were running the following:

Build: Joyride-2294
Firmware: CL1 Q2E12 Q2E
Libertas: 5.110.22.p17

Activities:

Browse-95: Viewing source results in a file with incorrect (non-Write/abiword) MIME-type. (<trac>7860</trac>)
Chat-45: XMPP 1:1 chats work fine with a non-XO. <trac>7633</trac> appears to be fixed.
Read-49: PDF files load in Read now (<trac>7615</trac>), but shared Read activities do not send the PDF file to XOs that join the activity.
Record-56: No unexpected behavior aside from a crash to the Home view that seemed isolated; will look into it.
Write-57: No unexpected behavior.


Build joyride-2263

XOs being used for the initial test were running the following:

Build: Joyride-2263

Has a bug in activity updater on clean install; "mkdir ~olpc/Activities" from terminal to workaround. Fixed in joyride-2266. Also: suspend may occur during long downloads; issue not yet fixed.

Build joyride-2230

Misc

screen rotate button makes XO screen go white, you have to reboot. <trac>7407</trac>
Read can't open PDFs <trac>7615</trac>
no, that's an unrelated bug that was fixed in an earlier build, please file a new ticket next time. I've fixed this for future builds with new gnome-vfs2 packages. -DanielDrake 21:51, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

Ran Software Update to get new activities.

Browse and Log Viewer do not appear to update properly -- SW Update keeps listing them as un-updated even after supposedly updating them (<trac>7494</trac>, <trac>7640</trac>). Workaround: delete the offending activities and re-run Software Update.

XOs being used for the smoketest are running the following:

Build: Joyride-2230

Collaboration: Chat-43

Sharing with Neighborhood works in both directions without visible issues (G02 starting the activity with W08 joining, and vice versa).

Collaboration: Browse-94

Shared bookmarks appear to work without issues.

Collaboration: Read-45

PDF file doesn't seem to transfer from "host" XO to the joining XO(s).

Collaboration: Record-56

XO(s) joining a shared Record activity freeze?

Collaboration: Write-55

Shared Write activity appears to work without issues.

(Tickets to bugs found will be added once the tickets are submitted.)

Build joyride-2140

Activities: Measure doesn't display properly -- the waveform area is grey, but the Sugar interface up top and the scrollbar on the right show properly. TamTamJam does not start.(<trac>7467</trac> and <trac>7466</trac> respectively.)

Image Transferring and Invite: Copying to the clipboard and Journal appears to work, however the image cannot be pasted from the clipboard to the Write activity, nor can it be pasted by using the Image menu. (File is named "Clipboard object: ." for some reason -- possibly connected? See <trac>7468</trac>) The second XO experienced no visible issues when invited to the Write activity, and both laptops were able to share the activity and see each others' changes.

Installing an Activity Bundle (Browse): Implode installs, but hangs when running; maybe same issue as with TamTamJam? (Running Browse-92.)

Not the same as TamTam. I mailed the Implode author with diagnosis info. It needs an update for new sugar/GTK+ API. Please test another activity instead, e.g. Distance (AcousticMeasure) -DanielDrake 17:35, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
Okay, redid this part of the test with Block Party, which seems to have downloaded, installed and run properly. -Charlie 14:05, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

Installing a Library Bundle (USB): Wikibooks-4.xol is not installed (is not present in /home/olpc/Library/) after clicking start in the Journal. Possible MIME-type issue? Copying Wikibooks-4.xol to /home/olpc/Library/ from the USB stick did not fix the problem.

Installing a Library Bundle (Browse): Bible-en.xol downloads, but is not installed (is not present in /home/olpc/Library/). Clicking 'Start' in the Journal does not do anything -- possibly a MIME-type issue? (<trac>7427</trac>, running Browse-92.)

7427 is unrelated, we need a new ticket -DanielDrake 17:35, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Installing a Library Bundle (offline): Phyla PDF downloads; when started through Journal, Read starts but no document appears. (Running Browse-92.)

Transfer files to USB stick: Clipboard image does not load on other XO; probably related to results from Browse/Write sharing.

Update.1 builds

Build 713 for Ethiopia

  • Tested against open AP and school server
  • Collaboration over infrastructure (salut) was a bit unreliable, probably due to noisy RF environment
  • <trac>8379</trac>: Pretty boot does not work
  • No other problems found

-DanielDrake 23:18, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

Build 712 for Ethiopia

  • Tested against WEP AP.
  • Did all collaboration testing over simple mesh
  • Write defaults to DejaVu font, which does not have Amharic characters. Perhaps it should default to Abyssinica SIL on ethiopian laptops.
  • Did not test school server connectivity or filling NAND
  • No problems found otherwise (completed the rest of the smoke test in full)

-DanielDrake 02:25, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
