Testing SoaS
The focus now is on SoaS release 1 snapshots (based on the coming Fedora 11).
Report your hardware profile
Sugar on a Stick/Hardware has instructions for reporting your hardware profile.
Software Testing
See Smoke test, and give technical feedback on sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org.
Please keep notes on which version of Sugar on a Stick you have downloaded when reporting issues.
- When booting SoaS, you'll see for a short time a Fedora screen showing a blue solar system.
- By pressing the 'Escape' button here, you can get to Fedora's boot menu.
- There, you should find the images name in the following structure: Soas{version number}-{date of creation}
Alternatively, you can also refer to the name of the .iso file from the download source.
To find out which version of the Sugar component you are using, you can look it up in the 'About my Computer' Section in 'My Settings'.
Report bugs on the Sugar Labs bug tracking system. Use the 'SoaS' component when entering new bugs.
User test notes:
Casual observations may be reported on this wiki (cross link bugs reports and test notes, as appropriate, to help document the problem).
Find your build version in the list of subpages below, or [create a new subpage for an unlisted version]. On the address line of your browser, enter the relevant MMDD of the version file (taken from the file date at the download page), press <Enter>, then a header for your setup and some observations. (The full address line will be http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/index.php?title=Index.php&title=Sugar_on_a_Stick/Getting_Involved/Testing/Soas-beta_2009MMDD&action=edit) For more help on this process, see this help page section.
