Testing Sugar 0.105

This page contains information and resources for testing this Sugar release.

What should I test?

• new features, see 0.106/Feature_List, such as social help (test case?), brightness controls and frame icon for display, journal and activity list scrolling, start an activity from another activity (test case?),
• control panel, escape key to exit,
• control panel, about my computer, speed up, layout, information shown,
• activity erase correctly exposes a system activity still installed #4836,
• occasional activity failed to start should no longer occur #2974,
• activity startup with old activity.info format.

Testing with updates

For Fedora systems such as the XO laptop, with 0.104.1 and earlier versions.

Update only the Sugar packages, like this:

su
cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
wget http://dev.laptop.org/~german/rpms-0105/rpms-0105.repo
yum update sugar*
reboot

Please test without removing the .sugar directory, so that we can find any update problems. To test removing the directory:

rm -fr /home/olpc/.sugar

Testing with images

We have created images with the latest Sugar 0.105 packages. These builds are "clean" Sugar Labs images, which do not include any customization.

• XO-1
  • 32002SL0.img
  • md5
  • crc

• XO-1.5
  • 32002SL1.zd
  • md5

• XO-1.75
  • 32002SL2.zd
  • md5

• XO-4

Soon!

Signing

These images are NOT signed by OLPC, therefore you need an unsecured XO for installing these images. Contact OLPC if you need signed images.
