Meeting summary

  1. Who's new? If you've just joined us come and say Hi (DavidWHodgins, 20:06:58)
  2. Mageia 4 (DavidWHodgins, 20:08:24)
    1. tomorrow will be the final push. Please put as much time into it as you can. We have to test all ISOs and each DE installed from the classics (MrsB, 20:15:58)
    2. we can't release until everything has been tested (MrsB, 20:20:23)
    3. efi boots properly from the isos, if using usb you need a fat32 formatted stick and copy the contents of the iso there. live medias need s/Mageia-4-GNOME-LiveDVD/MGALIVE UEFI/ if booted from usb stick, you can edit boot selections with "e" (MrsB, 20:30:11)
    4. you need to label the usb according to what you pass on command string, so if you label it MGA4 then: s/Mageia-4-GNOME-LiveDVD/MGA4 UEFI/ (MrsB, 20:32:10)
    5. if using an actual dvd they will boot up without any interaction (MrsB, 20:33:01)
    6. Note, the installer X server will crash on boot, and get restarted in ~15-60 seconds as it has trouble with uefi -> framebuffer handover... so UEFI for mga4 is *experimental* (MrsB, 20:33:40)
    7. the crash should only be with classic isos (MrsB, 20:34:59)
    8. some dual gpu systems may still have issues (MrsB, 20:36:02)
    9. one to try : rd.blacklist=nouveau xdriver=intel (MrsB, 20:40:32)
