I've been having trouble syncing. It keeps stalling at around 40% of the first iso. 20:12:37 <wilcal> I got a full Vbox install with many apps working 20:12:52 <tarazed> Major probllem with USB3.0 - not supported in the installer. 20:12:55 <Tonyb_> x86_64 downsized yet? 20:12:57 <brian_> installed gnome-586-dvd seems fine 20:13:00 <Kernewes> Haven't managed to do a thing with B2 yet unfortunately 20:13:01 <MrsB> Morning QA 20:13:05 <dvg_i> sync is great. 3rd build is best yet 20:13:07 <Kernewes> she's back :) 20:13:12 <wilcal> M5B2 x86-64 CI still is broken with no KDE 20:13:13 <MrsB> sorry about that 20:13:20 <DavidWHodgins> HiYa Claire 20:13:21 <olivier_cc> Morning Claire ! 20:13:31 <dvg_i> 64 bit is still 2nd build 20:13:37 <dvg_i> 3rd expected soon 20:13:43 <tarazed> From USB2.0 no problem, USB3.0 is dead 20:13:46 <dvg_i> per ennaels mail 20:14:01 <olivier_cc> same problem as tarazed with dual iso 20:14:41 <wilcal> k that explains that 20:14:42 <MrsB> The ones to test at the moment are classic DVD i586 and the dual dvd 20:15:00 <wilcal> That one works pretty good for me MrsB 20:15:06 <wilcal> In Vbox anyway 20:15:17 <MrsB> Ought to be testing on real HW now really 20:15:20 <wilcal> spent a couple hours with it this morning ( here ) 20:15:48 <tarazed> Sorry, on USB2.0 system USB3.0 stick works fine, not on USB3.0 system 20:16:16 <tarazed> I ahve no USB2.0 devices to test isos 20:16:19 <wilcal> I'll run it up on real hardware this afternoon 20:16:21 <brian_> mine was a hardware install - just one unusual item 20:16:24 <MrsB> is there a bug for the USB 3 issue? 20:16:38 * MrsB didn't see it on the pad 20:17:14 <tarazed> Yes but nobody seems to have noticed yet 20:17:23 <MrsB> do you know the bug number? 20:17:34 <tarazed> #14799 20:17:42 <olivier_cc> what unusual item brian_ ? 20:17:44 <DavidWHodgins> bug 14799 20:17:44 <MrsB> bug 14799 20:17:45 <[mbot> Bug https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14799 major, Normal, sysadmin-bugs, NEW , Regression in USB3 support in mga5 beta2 ISOs 20:18:38 <DavidWHodgins> While that would block release of a rc or final release, I don't think it should block a beta. 20:19:08 <brian_> @oliver - when I first opened liveDVD-Gnome-586 it kept saying <something went wrong> I had to choose protected mode Kernel to get it to open 20:19:15 <brian_> afterwards it all worked fine 20:19:15 <tarazed> It just means that I cannot test half my machines 20:19:24 <DavidWHodgins> Note that there has been some discussion on the dev mailing list about delaying release for another month, and adding a beta 3. 20:19:37 <Kernewes> sounds sensible 20:20:18 <MrsB> there we go, that'll get noticed len :) 20:20:25 <brian_> I'm slowly working through the icons and confirming they work (gnome - yuck) 20:21:06 <olivier_cc> there is indeed a few issues on gnome live isos 20:21:11 <MrsB> well done brian_ 20:21:21 <tarazed> KDE4 DVD 64bit looks good 20:21:26 <MrsB> the live isos need some love still don't they 20:21:27 <DavidWHodgins> I just started my sync script again. It's showing about an hour to finish the first iso. 20:21:46 <wilcal> IMO if we can get the M5B2 x86-64 CI to go I'd turn it loose 20:21:51 <MrsB> kde livecd is about 50Mb too big 20:21:58 <dvg_i> incredible. we are in the space age? 20:22:15 <wilcal> And how old is the CD? 20:22:30 <dvg_i> less than half an hour for all isos here 20:22:43 <dvg_i> from scratch 20:24:17 <MrsB> #info Classic DVD 32 is looking OK. Plenty of bugs but no showstoppers 20:24:35 <DavidWHodgins> I'm only getting about 250 kB/s on the download. Normally it would be around 555 kB/s. My dsl connection keeps dropping every once in a while for 10 to 30 seconds. rsync doesn't like that! 20:24:43 <MrsB> #info There's an issue with usb 3.0 support in the installer 20:24:51 <MrsB> #info live isos still need some love 20:25:23 <dvg_i> DavidWHodgins: Maybe look for a better ISP 20:25:44 <MrsB> is there anything else we should note in the meeting logs 20:26:23 <DavidWHodgins> dvg_i: I think it's probably a problem with the telephone line, not the isp. 20:26:37 <olivier_cc> that seems to sum it up well Claire 20:27:00 <dvg_i> DavidWHodgins: ask for a new cable then? 20:27:15 <MrsB> pad appears to be down atm 20:27:28 <DavidWHodgins> dvg_i: That will likely have to wait until spring 20:27:41 <olivier_cc> no pad here either 20:27:45 <MrsB> #info https://pad.riseup.net/p/mageia5beta2 Please remember to make good use of the pad 20:28:12 <MrsB> Anybody anything to add at this stage? 20:28:25 <olivier_cc> when will it be decided to have a Beta 3? 20:28:31 <wilcal> I really wanna see the next x86-64 CI 20:28:43 <wilcal> will I see that today or tomorrow 20:28:44 <MrsB> after beta2 olivier_cc 20:28:59 <DavidWHodgins> wilcal: Likely tomorrow. 20:29:04 <wilcal> Thanks David 20:29:14 <wilcal> I've a pretty empty weekend 20:30:05 <MrsB> we need to see bugs being fixed now, but it's Christmas and alot of people are taking time away so it's difficult. We need the RC to be a real rlease candidate though as there is not long between the RC and the final, so if there is not much activity we may need to consider beta 3 20:30:43 <DavidWHodgins> The pad is not connecting from here. 20:30:49 <MrsB> dead pad 20:30:52 <brian_> <my thought> - I concur. Otherwise you might get a hard review on Distrowatch 20:30:54 <dvg_i> same here 20:31:12 <Kernewes> or in the mags 20:31:15 <DavidWHodgins> Better to be late, then bad. 20:31:34 <Kernewes> although Linux Format arrived today stating that the final M5 should be out by now :) 20:31:38 <MrsB> Is there anything else to add about beta 2, or shall we move on? 20:32:32 <MrsB> #topic Testing updates 20:32:58 <MrsB> We're not doing badly with keeping on top of the updates 20:33:03 <wilcal> Lots of "OK"'s there 20:33:13 <wilcal> look'n pretty good MrsB 20:33:25 <wilcal> I still touch at least 1/day 20:33:36 <MrsB> if you do get some spare time and no ISOs to test though please have a look at them 20:33:38 <MrsB> yeah 20:33:52 <wilcal> Try to pick on the red Security updates first 20:34:09 <MrsB> that's the way to do it, start at the top and work down 20:34:11 <wilcal> Many thanks to olivier too nice job 20:34:13 <olivier_cc> I saw jasper went to critical 20:34:29 <MrsB> http://mageia.madb.org/tools/updates for the list 20:34:31 <[mbot> [ Mageia App Db - Current Update candidates ] 20:34:52 <MrsB> Herman and Olivier are both doing really well, congratulations both of you 20:35:09 <olivier_cc> I like the green light on madb, :) 20:35:09 <wilcal> Either one of you guys in school? 20:35:34 <olivier_cc> too old for that wilcal 20:35:53 <MrsB> there are lots there waiting to be validated by the looks of it, so we're well on top of things at the moment 20:35:55 <wilcal> I wanna go back to the 6th Grade 20:36:08 <DavidWHodgins> :-) 20:36:20 <DavidWHodgins> Not me. :-) 20:36:44 <MrsB> there is a procedure for jasper, we've done that one before 20:37:27 <MrsB> i think you can add the OK's for nail 20:37:33 <olivier_cc> brian_ : are you OK with qa-testing ? 20:37:56 <olivier_cc> OK, I'll do it Claire, thanks 20:38:32 <MrsB> i'll sort the advisories out after the meeting and get them validated 20:39:51 <brian_> sorry - had to look down - yes 20:40:06 <MrsB> brian_: do you have a mentor yet? 20:40:18 <brian_> no - just a psychologist ;-) 20:40:21 <MrsB> lol 20:40:35 <MrsB> wilcal: you're similar timezone 20:40:48 <MrsB> would you be mentor for brian? 20:41:04 <olivier_cc> And a good psychologist too wilcal 20:41:09 <DavidWHodgins> Cat woke up.
