0.106/Testing


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-4

Soon!

Installing

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