84.238.94.243: /* Bugs in testing1 */

By using these testing images, you're '''morally obligated to test them''' and to edit this page and report -every single bug you find-, no matter if they're theme flaws, quirks, bugs or crashes. You can optionally also use [https://bugs.maemo.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Mer bugzilla] , use version 0.13.

'''Please send the bug report urls to mer-chatter (see [[Mer/Awareness]] ) as well and share your bugs, testing experiences.'''

Test master is Meizirkki, and can be found in #mer on irc.freenode.net usually and you can ask him if there's some specialized areas that need testing. Take [http://wiki.maemo.org/Mer/Sprints/0.13#Component:_Testing these testing things first].

These images will not be the only ones this week. In N8x0 installer, when it asks for URL=, write URL=http://the.image.intended. Instructions on [[Mer/Releases/0.12]] still apply.

== Bugs in testing1 ==

* Hardware keyboard/slider events on N810 when device is in standby only turns on backlight, and doesn't unblank the screen. Touchscreen events work fine in this respect.
* Touchscreen using xf86-input-tslib does not work (N8x0, SmartQ). Fix will be in testing2 image (redownload image and it should be fixed)
* Brightness applet makes hildon crash (not always) http://pastebin.ca/1418638
* Freezing at shutdown if the command is given from the new gui
* Enhancement: jffs2 images, kernels, etc.
** Potential fix: Edit kernel-diablo in Maemo:Mer:Devel:HW:N8x0:Devel to include a variant (like -oprofile or such) that is built to sed CONFIG_CMDLINE from 'CONFIG_CMDLINE="root=1f03 rootfstype=jffs2 ro console=tty0 console=ttyMTD5" to:'CONFIG_CMDLINE="root=1f04 rootfstype=jffs2 init=/sbin/tablet-init ro console=tty0 console=ttyMTD5"'
* Minor issues:
** [0.12, not verified to be in 0.13testing1] /etc/init.d/powered produces a message similar to ‘[: 105: false: invalid operator’. The fix is to change ‘==’ to ‘=’ in all lines of the form ‘[ "$FOO" == "true" ]’. (Just search for ‘==’ in all init.d scripts.)
** [0.12, not verified to be in 0.13testing1] Near the top of /usr/sbin/set_dim_and_blank.py is ‘if dim > blank: print "Dim must be >= blank"’; the message should say ‘<=’ rather than ‘>=’.
*** Fixed in dsme-tools 0.8

====x86 VMDK====
* Text in text fields can not be drag-selected (cursor jumps to start of field instead)
* Applications installed prompt for folder location but are always stored in Extras
** Artifact of Fremantle Application Manager i think
*** (Irrelevant. It's a bug)
* Organize dialog nonresponsive to any input
* Locale hardcoded to en_GB.utf8 (?)
** There is a .current-locale feature, needs control panel (+ reboot), look in /usr/bin/start-hildon
*** the file is ~/.osso/current-locale and it doesn't work.
* Terminal menu text is not replaced with localized text - e.g. "webameedit - webamecopy" etc.
* Terminal toolbar Ctrl button non-functional (try Ctrl + d, Ctrl + h, Ctrl + g, Ctrl + c)
** Work on including patches in libvte on garage.maemo.org/projects/osso-xterm into vte - there's some not included yet.
* Terminal toolbar (likely other) has significanly misaligned background image when selected.
** Icon sizes are changed in Fremantle, so a theme issue probably
*** no. There are no icons on the toolbar. Screenshot: [http://www.quicksnapper.com/JMarkevich/image/toolbar-bug Toolbar Bug] (this has been a persistent bug in Maemo, though mostly for all python programs, evidently)
