Passed smoke test by Bpepple. Booted and tried by Reuben and Kim. <br>
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) )

== [http://pilgrim.laptop.org/~pilgrim/olpc/streams/8.2/ 8.2 builds] ==
'''Wireless update'''
=== Build 8.2-767 (candidate release) ===
* 5.110.20.p4 is on 7 machines that will continue to run all weekend. These machines have HW ECOs, and have removed ohm (rpm -e ohm) since any chance of suspend/resume was causing problems (which continued to plague us during reboot, for instance). They looked good after removing ohm.
====Startup/Upgrade====
* Another suspend/resume issue is that if you hit the power button on the front of the laptop with or without the power adapter plugged in you could get into a very bad state. [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/5074 trac 5074]
* Updated from 711 through olpc-update.
* I was not successful sharing a Write doc across 3 laptops with both text and an image (I didn't try an image alone). This failed in both link local and medialab AP with jabber modes. Most likely the link local problem was a crash in presence. Not sure what the jabber problem is -- Yani tried it again on the same machines and it did share... something intermittent??
* Boot up is a tad slower than 711, but otherwise, upgrade and boot up are flawless.
- kim


====Network and mesh====
* On a C1 I had to touch /etc/ohm/inhibit-suspend in order to keep wireless up when the machine was unplugged.
* Activities updated successfully and internet connection successful. Still have not tested a Mesh with multiple XOs
* I failed to connect to the network at a Marriott Courtyard without killing NetworkManager and manually configuring.
- cscott


====Programs and other stuff====
* Anything earlier than C2 or laptops with all HW ECOs will require inhibit-suspend. Even with inhibit-suspend, if you hit the 'power' button on the front - you can get strange suspend behavior (5074, above). This is why I have removed ohm.
* Ran through the 1-Hour Smoke Test:
- kim
* 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).
-- Echo35 - 16:04 EST October 7th, 2008


== Build 637 ==
=== Build 8.2-766 (candidate release) ===


First portion of 1-hour smoke tests (starting from the top of the list and going down through/including "installing library bundle") pass. AFAIK other smoke tests (run by Joe, Frances, and Kim) passed as well. [[User:Mchua|Mchua]] 13:36, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
'''Fixed Bugs'''
* The double click bug has been fixed!!
* Sim City has been added successfully.

[http://dev.laptop.org/~cjb/76x_changelog cscott's Changelog]; [http://dev.laptop.org/~rwh/announcer/release8.2-pkgs.html rwh's Changelog]
* wikibrowse doesn't load (is a new activity)
** most likely due to incorrect naming of the py files
* Inviting with write work
** It is quite slow though (this is over gabble)
* Audio and Video files still don't get file extensions when moved to USB
* couldn't get a library bundle to install correctly
** it failed to completely download


== Build Joyride 305 ==
=== Build 8.2-763 (candidate release) ===


[http://dev.laptop.org/~rwh/announcer/release8.2-pkgs.html Changelog]
'''1 Hour Smoke Test Results'''


'''Install'''
* Record video/audio files don't show up on the clipboard correctly
* I did a cleaninstall on one laptop and an olpc-update (from 760) on another. Both upgrades completed and the laptops booted up.
** due to [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4783 trac bug 4783]
* 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
* Invite of write doesn't work
* NOTE: After changes to the wiki page, the content is also getting updated properly.
** No invite shows up on the second XO
** This is most likely a security bug
** Probably due to [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4947 trac bug 4947]
* Since the GCompris activities aren't working right now, I tried downloading and installing Implode
** The activity bundle downloaded and installed, but it failed to launch due to security
* I also tried watch and listen 10
** It also installed but failed to launch due to security issues [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/5013 trac ticket 5013]
* The library index comes up in browse!
* The ogg file played in browse, though the progress bar still doesn't move
* Installing library bundles still doesn't work, though I need to talk to sj about the new way the library works
* The audio/video files from record still don't transfer correctly
** This is due to [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4783 trac bug 4783]
* Chat collaboration worked fine


'''Activities'''
== Build 297 ==
* Started many activities and tested for basic funcationality. Results are now being logged in the test restults page: [[TestResults_8.2.0]]


'''Collaboration'''
'''Libertas''' - no build yet
* 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.
- Kim
* Simple mesh collaborates, connection to an AP, and connection/registration to a school server -- no regressions.


=== Build 8.2-760 ===


* changelog?
'''kernel 297''' - fatal error 104, 'x' respawning
* Can't boot
- Kim


'''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'''
'''xtest 297''' - loads, boots into sugar (I didn't do a clean boot, so it didn't ask for name/color);
* Connected to open and WEP access points.
* Journal doesn't load
* When connected to WEP AP, my two laptops at home also saw each other.
* Browse doesn't load
* 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.
* Chat doesn't load
* After a while I tried to share write and they were able to see the write doc.
* Write loads but you can't type anything and there is a greyed out square area in the upper left (reminds me of the old 404 missing page image).
* Still has the mouse double click problem; but I was able to connect to my WEP AP
* Record loads and takes pictures, video, and audio!!
* Paint loads, draws, can't open journal when you try to load an image
* Close the lid on my C build machine and a couple minutes later it rebooted (with the lid closed)
- Kim


'''Activities'''
* Chat, Write, Record (video, still, and voice), Pippy, Tamtam jam, Browse all started and performed as expected.
* Browse shows no Library content! [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/8493 #8493]


[[User:Kimquirk|Kimquirk]] 12:30, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
'''sugar 297 (plus wireless 5.110.20.p2)''' - loads, boots into sugar

* Journal loads
'''Ethernet connection'''
* Chat loads - but it can't share with neighborhood ('My Neighborhood' never dims once selected, which is usually the indication that it shared properly... and you can't type anything)
* My D-Link DUB-E100 USB Ethernet adapter does not work with this build. No connection.
* Write loads but looks just like xtest version - you can't type and there is a strange grey square area.

* Browse loads; can't find the library redirect (there is a msg about this); you CAN type a url in the browser window... but nothing happens when you hit return.
'''Collaboration'''
* Paint loads and you can draw; but it can't get to the journal for downloading an image. It did resume from the journal properly.
* 29 laptops connected to a school server and running Chat, Browse and (in the case of 3 laptops) also Write survived the overnight collaboration.
* Double click mouse problem still exists.
* 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.
* Will leave this running overnight to see if 4470 shows up (at home)

=== Build 8.2-759 ===
[http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2008-September/018843.html 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]] -- [[User:Skierpage|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 <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.
* 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>.
[[User:Kimquirk|Kimquirk]] 15:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

==== 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? [[User:Jpritikin|Jpritikin]] 16:19, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

* Test report from Wellington: <br>
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: <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.

: '''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.
: '''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.

: Read can't open PDFs <s><trac>7615</trac></s>
:: 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. -[[User:DanielDrake|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.''

: 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 273 ==
=== 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.)
'''1 Hour Smoke Test''' (w/ security turned off)


'''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.
* activities are a bit slow to load (though, that's often been the case.)


'''Installing an Activity Bundle (Browse):''' Implode installs, but hangs when running; maybe same issue as with TamTamJam? (Running Browse-92.)
* copying audio and video files from record to the clipboard is still broken (4781)
: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)
** this isn't in the test, but it was something I wanted to check, and which was recently broken.
:Okay, redid this part of the test with Block Party, which seems to have downloaded, installed and run properly. -[[User:Charlie|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.
*write sharing of images is broken.
** If the XO that shared the file with an image in it moves the image, everything works fine. If the second XO moves the image, it just creates a copy of the image on the second XO, and nothing occurs on the first XO. (ha, actually, I tried it with the mouse on the XO, and it works fine. It's only when I use the attached mouse that it has this weird behavior)


'''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.)
* sudoku.activity.xo wouldn't start. it installed, but it failed to launch
:7427 is unrelated, we need a new ticket -[[User:DanielDrake|DanielDrake]] 17:35, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
* same with electric.xo:
** I'm guessing there's a problem with the GCompris activities. They were never sugarized, and though they worked before, enough has changed in sugar that it's understandable that they would be broken. I'll turn on logging and write up the bug(s) when I'm done.
** I tried w&l, and that was able to run fine.


'''Installing a Library Bundle (offline):''' Phyla PDF downloads; when started through Journal, Read starts but no document appears. (Running Browse-92.)
* installing library bundles is still having problems, but that's broken in 623 as well.
** the .xol bundles haven't been created correctly for the way in which the library works right now


'''Transfer files to USB stick:''' Clipboard image does not load on other XO; probably related to results from Browse/Write sharing.
* the audio and video files made by record still aren't being given file extensions when transfered to usb (4782, which is a dup of 4783 {can't play in browse})


== [http://pilgrim.laptop.org/~pilgrim/olpc/streams/update.1/ Update.1 builds] ==
* sharing chat: worked both ways. The little XO around the activity doesn't always happen.
** not sure of the pattern yet, but when I am, I'll write up the bug.


== Build Joyride 266 ==
=== 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
-[[User:DanielDrake|DanielDrake]] 23:18, 9 September 2008 (UTC)


=== Build 712 for Ethiopia ===
* ([[User:Pascal|PS]]) Browse doesn't open with the Library (no trac issue found?) [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4720 trac bug 4720]
* ([[User:Pascal|PS]]) Sleep after 40 seconds also powers down USB-HID devices (trac issue tbd)
* ([[User:Pascal|PS]]) Browse does not report an error when trying to open a file/directory which it doesn't have access permissions for. Tried with file:///home/olpc #4873


* Tested against WEP AP.
== Build Joyride 262 ==
* 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)
-[[User:DanielDrake|DanielDrake]] 02:25, 4 September 2008 (UTC)


=== Build 711 Q2e12 (8.1.2) ===
* Tamtam and Pippy sound are working for me!
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4847 AbiWord doesn't share] with neighborhood or privately: 4847.
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4848 No Index page] when you open the browser: 4848.
* Actually, [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4849 Chat and Browse don't share] either. I think chat was working in 259... it doesn't do anything in this build, 4849.
* Abiword [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4850 Keep as rtf doesn't work]: 4850.
* [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4853 No view source from a webpage]: 4853.


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.
* Was able to start record and other activities (only tried a few so far)
* Still no sound in tamtam or when playing back recorded audio.
** Un-muting the sound in alsamixer will fix this. (still needs to be fixed in the build though)
* Tried to resume a photo (taken from record) using browser (since record was not an option)... it started the browser but didn't find the picture.
* Can't connect to standard, open Access Points. [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4826 trac ticket 4826]
** This is actually the result of single clicks being seen as double clicks [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4763 trac ticket 4763]
* suspend/resume code has been added. this can result in many problems.
** your laptop may freeze trying to come out of suspend, and you will have to reboot the machine
** your laptop may reboot itself when coming out of a suspend. [http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/4635 trac 4635]


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

Old testing results

Purpose of test group release notes

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

Smoke test, changelogs

General smoke and regression tests:

  • Smoke test links to the 1-hour smoke test for a particular release

8.2.1 builds

Please write your testing notes here. Thanks! --Michael Stone 18:57, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

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 8.2-766 (candidate release)

First portion of 1-hour smoke tests (starting from the top of the list and going down through/including "installing library bundle") pass. AFAIK other smoke tests (run by Joe, Frances, and Kim) passed as well. Mchua 13:36, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

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>.

Kimquirk 15:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)

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)

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

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:

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.

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
Firmware: CL1 Q2E12 Q2E
Libertas: 5.110.22.p17

XOs being used for the smoketest are connected to the internet through School Wifi.

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

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)

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.

Build 709 Q2E12

Startup:

  • Cleaninstall; added activities with the bundles directory (peru activities)
  • Connected to medialab 802.11, browsed the web
  • Connected to WPA (olpc), and connected to WEP (canopy), browsed the web

Activities:

  • Pippy, sequence to test out audio
  • Record, took pictures
  • TamTam - played a few quick sounds
  • Opened Turtle Art and Scratch
  • Copied an image from the browser to the clipboard and onto a write doc
  • Saved it; retrieved it from the journal

Sharing:

  • Two laptops shared the following via simple mesh properly:
    • Chat
    • Write
    • Record photos
    • Browser links

Some activities I shared with the neighborhood, some I used the private invitation.

Bundles

  • I downloaded Flipsticks from the web (Activities link, Testing link); it installed and loaded.
  • Ran it and closed it.
