20:02:01 <wilcal> hello all to another qa meeting
20:02:14 <wilcal> quiet time of the year
20:02:35 <wilcal> #topic Who's new?
20:02:40 <wilcal> Anyone new
20:02:49 <bri_an> I'm old
20:04:28 <wilcal> #topic M7 Beta 1, Status & Testing. Is How's it going?
20:05:05 <wilcal> As is everyone except for a couple of glaring issues M7 for me is doing well
20:05:32 <MageiaTJ> Big Plasma-related update last week. Hundreds of packages. Went very smoothly here.
20:05:47 <bri_an> mostly well.  Is anyone else having issues with konversatoin?
20:05:50 <wilcal> One issue that was mentioned on the QA mailing list is the there is another big set up packages due
20:06:14 <bri_an> Hi tmb
20:06:16 <wilcal> I've not used konverstation on M7. I'll give it a try
20:06:22 <wilcal> Hello tmb
20:06:30 <tmb> hi
20:06:34 <bri_an> yeah  - it will open freenode, but I could joing a channel
20:06:39 <bri_an> could not
20:06:47 <MageiaTJ> I used it two weeks ago with M7 Plasma. No issues.
20:07:13 <bri_an> yeah - I was wondering if it didn't like cinnamon DE combined with Konversation
20:07:19 <wilcal> My two issues are the strange display in GIMP for me and that nfs's won't load at boot
20:07:37 <bri_an> Hi DavidWHodigins
20:07:38 <wilcal> Hello David
20:07:46 <DavidWHodgins> Sorry I'm late. Keep going. :-)
20:07:47 <MageiaTJ> Dave!
20:07:57 <wilcal> change your name and I'll make you moderator
20:08:09 <bri_an> the other issue I've stumbled on is the Netis wifi card issue
20:08:18 <wilcal> #chair DavidWHodgins
20:08:18 <Inigo_Montoya> Current chairs: DavidWHodgins wilcal
20:09:34 <bri_an> wifi issues on old laptop, won't autoconnect when I boot up
20:09:49 <bri_an> but I can go in and connect - this is using gnome wayland
20:09:52 <DavidWHodgins> My limited testing hasn't found any major issues. I'm using wired connections only.
20:10:01 <MageiaTJ> My two HP printers configured easily with M7, but I haven't tried to print much yet.
20:10:07 <wilcal> Here's a major issue that persists:
20:10:09 <wilcal> https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23863
20:10:11 <[mbot> [ 23863 – Timing of the nfs mount not working? ]
20:10:24 <wilcal> This is an old problem that came back
20:10:36 <wilcal> I put references in the bug to past problems with this
20:11:03 <bri_an> here is the wifi https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24033
20:11:05 <[mbot> [ 24033 – Ralink WIFI not working in m7 - netis wf2119s not working ]
20:11:36 <bri_an> Here is the cinnamon crash  https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24017
20:11:38 <[mbot> [ 24017 – Cinnamon - desktop - clicking home folder opens desktop opens gwenview ]
20:11:50 <bri_an> oh wait - that's the link issue
20:12:05 <bri_an> https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24016
20:12:07 <[mbot> [ 24016 – Cinnamon crashed and restarted on desktop (cinnamon[3057]: segfault at 4 ip 00007fcae6d2e490 sp 00007ffd608c1ad8 error 4 in libcairo.so.2.11600.0[7fcae6cdd000+d5000]) ]
20:12:08 <MageiaTJ> I've just used Atheros wifi with M7 so far - again, no issues.
20:13:01 <bri_an> yeah - I'm not aware enough for how drivers are built and connected, but seems like maybe a bad build for the ralink wifi
20:14:12 <MageiaTJ> All wifi issues I've had in the past, regardless of brand, trace back to the firmware.
20:15:06 <bri_an> tmb would know, but my guess it the team assembles and compiles the source from the manufacturers into mageia.
20:15:08 <Bequimao> Not here. It works with networkmanager.
20:15:54 <bri_an> yeah - I tried installing the networkmanager modules - no luck.  I go back to mga6 and it works beautifully
20:17:17 <bri_an> mostly stable though, just the wifi challenges
20:17:30 <tmb> bri_an, can you attach lspcidrake -v output to the wifi bug
20:17:43 <bri_an> yes
20:17:50 <wilcal> So M7 has WiFi issues for now
20:17:55 <bri_an> I'll try right after the meeting
20:19:43 <bri_an> tmb do you want both the broken netis and the working belking g?
20:19:58 <bri_an> can't spell today
20:20:16 <tmb> bri_an, the "broken" one as thats the one needing fixing :)
20:20:19 <Bequimao> when do we have Mageia Cauldron under QA testing?
20:21:04 <tmb> Bequimao, now :) .... sort of ...
20:21:08 <wilcal> We've been testing ISO's for some time now
20:21:19 <bri_an> tmb got it
20:22:15 <Bequimao> Yes, and we need bugtrackers for KDE Plasma for instance.
20:23:08 <wilcal> MageiaT: I had no problem configuring my HP printer and printing on M7
20:23:29 <bri_an> I guess I should try my brother printers
20:24:00 <bri_an> brb - going to boot the machine with netis
20:25:21 <DavidWHodgins> Don't forget to add the 7beta1 keyword to the bug reports. It'll make it easier to find the bugs that need to be retested after the next iso is available
20:25:30 <MageiaTJ> wilcal: Good. I printed test pages, but that's all so far. But I did notice that Okular will now let me print with black ink only. Old Plasma bug through all of M6.
20:25:55 <wilcal> Also all my M7 hardware installs are UEFI
20:27:20 <DavidWHodgins> Mine are all bios firmware. :-)
20:27:31 <MageiaTJ> I was going to wait for beta 2, but maybe I'll switch my HP laptop's production install to M7 now. It has Intel wifi.
20:28:04 <MageiaTJ> Everything I have is MBR.
20:28:16 <wilcal> I don't think there are any major issues with M7 other then NFS mounts and I can easily do the mount after I get to the desktop
20:28:42 <wilcal> And I can't use Gimp :-((
20:28:50 <bri_an> David - in what part should I put that?
20:28:58 <DavidWHodgins> keywords
20:29:04 <bri_an> ok
20:29:08 <MageiaTJ> I don't remember trying The Gimp in M7 yet.
20:29:15 <bri_an> I've opened it
20:30:34 <wilcal> For me some of the fields dissapper when you try to use them
20:30:56 <wilcal> Even in the Plasma Live_DVD with no changes at all
20:32:42 <DavidWHodgins> Looking forward to beta2 testing.
20:32:58 <DavidWHodgins> #topic Testing updates
20:33:10 <DavidWHodgins> bug 24032
20:33:13 <[mbot> Bug: ['Update request: kernel-4.14.89-1.mga6', 'NEW', 'QA Team'] https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24032
20:33:53 <DavidWHodgins> Other then the problem with the prior backport causing nvidia problems, any regressions noticed?
20:34:19 <bri_an> I'll install it after the meeting
20:34:29 <wilcal> New kernel test to take my mind off M7 :-))
20:34:37 <DavidWHodgins> :-)
20:34:43 <bri_an> tmb:  attached lspcidrake output
20:34:58 <DavidWHodgins> If no regressions found, I'll validate it around this time tomorrow.
20:35:06 <bri_an> ok
20:35:28 <DavidWHodgins> #topic Anything else?
20:35:40 <bri_an> nothing here
20:35:42 <MageiaTJ> Well, I guess I'll check that out before trying M7 on the laptop.
20:36:07 <wilcal> Not from me
20:36:15 <DavidWHodgins> Countdown time then
20:36:18 <DavidWHodgins> t - 5
20:36:19 <MageiaTJ> Nothing from me.
20:36:20 <bri_an> I did discover that cinnamon started working after the fixes were pushed.
20:36:26 <wilcal> bye all
20:36:27 <bri_an> nothing else
20:36:29 <bri_an> bye
