Fedora 19 Final TC5 desktop testing
by Adam Williamson 18 Jun '13

18 Jun '13

Hi, folks! There's been substantial churn in F19 lately, but from some smoke testing, Final TC5 looks like a basically working build that includes most of the major change we need for final. At this point, 10 days before go/no-go, we really need to do all the desktop validation testing and pin down any showstopper issues that remain. If folks could grab the TC5 Live images from here: https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/19-TC5/Live/ (KDE, GNOME) https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/stage/19-TC5/Spins/ (others) and help us to fill out the tests at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_19_Final_TC5_Desktop , it'd be a really big help. Just run any of the tests you can for your desktop, file bugs on any failures you hit, and mark your results in the tables according to the key. It'd be especially good to have help with the deceptively large test case https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_desktop_menus , which is basically 'run every app installed by default and make sure it works'. If you do hit problems with any of the tests, first check at https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/milestone/19/final/buglist to see if they've been reported as blocker or freeze exception bugs already. If you hit a serious new failure of a test on KDE or GNOME, mark the bug as blocking the bug 'FinalBlocker' (ideally with reference to a criterion at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_19_Final_Release_Criteria , but if you're not good at criteria ju-jitsu that's OK), or use the blocker proposal web app - https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/propose_bug - to propose it as a blocker. If you hit serious failure of a test on any of the other desktops, mark the bug as blocking the bug 'FinalFreezeException', or use the webapp to propose it as a freeze exception issue. I have tested that at least each image can boot to a desktop and run the installer; none of them is entirely DOA. Note, testing in virtualization, you *may* run into https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=974198 ; if so, passing 'nomodeset' should work around it for now. If you get lost or confused by the process at any point, but you think you've found an important issue, don't hesitate to holler at me or anyone else in QA or release engineering, on list, by direct mail or on IRC. Thanks! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net

systray leaks -> terrible slow after some hours
by Reindl Harald 14 Jun '13

14 Jun '13

am i the only one since years which desktop get's creeply slow after some hours * moving windows sucks * changes in the systray resuling in flickering and the reason is pretty clear that i make heavily use of the systray (thunderbird notifies, music player, knemo with 4 interfaces, long open apps with "alltray") currently after a hour the same again because i tried to send someone with kopete a file via jabber which is away and in this case you have a spinning wheel in the systray * logout * login * all is fine again on machines with a i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40GHz and 16 GB RAM this behavior is ridiculous because someone would expect having his KDE session open until the next kernel-update this smells like some sort of memory / file descriptor leaks

How to resize system tray, digital clock, and pager on KDE taskbar
by Temlakos 09 Jun '13

09 Jun '13

My KDE taskbar is suddenly fouled up. The system tray and the digital clock are suddenly far broader than I had set them, and they leave no space for minimized applications. How do I re-narrow those items? Temlakos

Qt5 on RHEL6 / Fedora
by Sonic 02 Jun '13

02 Jun '13

Hello, I believe Rex & Than were working on packaging Qt5 - I came across a bunch of bugzilla entries :-) Thanks a lot guys.. I'm looking to build/install Qt5 on RHEL6. Usually I download the srpms from Koji and build them. As of now, only qt5-qtbase is listed on Koji. But a web search reveals bugzilla entries for qt5-qtdeclarative, qt5-qtmultimedia etc. What is the best plan of action for installing Qt5 on RHEL6? Thanks and regards, Syam
