19:02:49 <DavidWHodgins> #topic * Who's new? - If you are then come and say hello
19:03:02 <DavidWHodgins> Anyone here who hasn't been to a qa team irc meeting before?
19:03:29 <DavidWHodgins> #topic * Testing Mageia 8 Beta
19:03:51 <wilcal> finding more bugs here but no show stoppers
19:04:08 <DavidWHodgins> Regarding  "dkms rebuilds drivers for kernels unnecessarily ", that will be fixed next time the kernel is updated.
19:04:54 <bri_an> My usage has been fairly clean
19:04:55 <DavidWHodgins> What are the questions listed in the topics about the correct kernel install and partitions?
19:05:00 <wilcal> This morning I did a successsful plasma install on my 9-year old Dell laptop
19:05:10 <wilcal> that from the live-dvd
19:05:11 <bri_an> :-) Wilcal
19:05:12 <hviaene> Hi all, sorry to be late
19:05:21 <DavidWHodgins> HiYa hviaene
19:05:27 <wilcal> hello
19:05:42 <DavidWHodgins> Benmc: What are the questions listed in the topics about the correct kernel install and partitions?
19:06:27 <DavidWHodgins> Oops. That should have been to you wilcal
19:06:33 <wilcal> 5.7.9-desktop-1.mga8 seems to be everything here
19:07:03 <wilcal> no proble.keep a go'n
19:07:14 <Benmc> ś ok dave, still waking up
19:07:21 <DavidWHodgins> The live i586 iso should install the i586 kernel, not the desktop kernel
19:08:55 <DavidWHodgins> I'd like to give a few more days for testing before releasing these iso images to the general public
19:09:17 <DavidWHodgins> Perhaps wait for the next kernel so the nvidia drivers build properly.
19:09:37 <bri_an> I agree - get that nvidia thing fixed
19:09:38 <Benmc> only issue i found so far is a 'script' error during update phase of CI 32
19:09:58 <DavidWHodgins> Saw that. I'll look into it more later.
19:10:10 <DavidWHodgins> Did you open a bug report for it?
19:10:14 <Benmc> I really only have time to do a install and quick reboot test
19:10:20 <hviaene> I did an upgrade M7-M8 again, and that went quit well
19:10:24 <Benmc> no bug yet
19:10:49 <DavidWHodgins> Ok. I'll open one after I look into it.
19:10:57 <Benmc> no one else has reported / agreed finding it
19:11:15 <DavidWHodgins> Which iso were you using? Live or classic?
19:11:34 <hviaene> Only glitch: when running the update on M8 afterwards, it bumps out some 6 lib packages, but I see no harm from that
19:11:48 <Benmc> CI, Xfce DE i586
19:11:51 <hviaene> Classic installs
19:11:57 <DavidWHodgins> hviaene: What do you mean by bumps?
19:12:13 <hviaene> ddeletes
19:12:43 <DavidWHodgins> As part of urpme --auto-orphans?
19:13:01 <DavidWHodgins> Or due to task-obsoletes
19:13:09 <hviaene> No, very basic run updates from MCC
19:13:37 <DavidWHodgins> It has to be triggered by some package(s) then
19:13:54 <DavidWHodgins> I'll watch for that on my next test.
19:14:14 <hviaene> Yes, "delete to update som others"
19:14:37 <wilcal> FWIW: I tried to boot Mageia-8-beta1-Live-Xfce-i586.iso on this new Dell Inspiron laptop and things got ugly. I had to "pull the plug"
19:14:42 <DavidWHodgins> Ok. That's not a likely to be a problem.
19:15:04 <DavidWHodgins> Ouch. Any idea why?
19:15:24 <wilcal> It was really scary what this thing did
19:15:40 <DavidWHodgins> Does it run x86_64 ok?
19:15:43 <Benmc> Wilcal: I heard that Dell loves Mga8
19:15:47 <wilcal> bing bong and it started to try and put files on the live-dvd
19:16:16 <bri_an> that's different
19:16:18 <DavidWHodgins> That's weird.
19:16:22 <wilcal> Yes, I am using a brand new Inspiron here and M8 runs wonderfuullly well
19:16:37 <wilcal> It was scary
19:17:08 <wilcal> I just bought this thing and I'm trying to not blow uo the HD that was suppled with it it has Win10 on it
19:17:15 <DavidWHodgins> I'll try the i586 xfce on one of my systems later today and see how that goes.
19:17:51 <Benmc> sorry guys, got to go
19:17:54 <DavidWHodgins> Any other questions or comments on m8?
19:17:57 <wilcal> bye ben
19:17:57 <DavidWHodgins> Ok Benmc
19:18:20 <bri_an> wilcal I saw you mention wifi issues in m8?  I haven't pursued any laptops yet with m8
19:19:01 <bri_an> what's happening before I risk it
19:19:02 <bri_an> ?
19:19:03 <wilcal> I higly recommend Dell laptops. Dell will maintain the waranty even if you install linux on it
19:19:40 <DavidWHodgins> The software used shouldn't matter for a hardware warranty
19:19:49 <hviaene> My Lenovo does well with M8 Wifi
19:19:50 <wilcal> You can actually buy Dell computers without an OS knowing Linux will be installed on it.
19:20:13 <DavidWHodgins> #topic * Testing updates - Any questions or problems
19:20:25 <bri_an> wilcal - yes used to be only high end developer machines, but they are bringing it down to mid-level now
19:20:42 <bri_an> David - Tomcat issue with last update
19:20:50 <hviaene> Big problem: no time up to now
19:21:01 <bri_an> https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26862
19:21:03 <[mbot`> [ 26862 – tomcat new security issues CVE-2020-11996 and CVE-2020-1393[45] ]
19:21:17 <DavidWHodgins> bri_an: Yes, saw the post about it. I'll try to get to that one later today.
19:21:32 <bri_an> with last fixes I couldn't make it work any longer.  Haven't had a chance to try on a new VM build
19:21:51 <bri_an> ok - thanks David
19:22:32 <hviaene> I hope I van have a look to morrow (rain announced)
19:22:53 <DavidWHodgins> The list is getting longer with more people focusing on m8. We have to keep up on the m7 updates too.
19:23:36 <DavidWHodgins> #topic * Anything else?
19:23:38 <bri_an> I see wilcal's carrer in there
19:23:52 <DavidWHodgins> Anyone have anything else they would like to discuss?
19:24:10 <wilcal> I'm good lov'n M8 on this new Dell Inspiron lappy
19:24:10 <bri_an> I think the java one could be okayed
19:24:24 <hviaene> I had t o replace the mottherboard in my dektop
19:24:46 <DavidWHodgins> hviaene: That's always fun. Easy to mess up.
19:24:58 <hviaene> And bought a Gigabyte GA970A (3nd hand same processor)
19:25:07 <wilcal> Ohh  thereseems to be someting on the MCC WiFi setup. I'm not quite sure what it is yet
19:25:20 <hviaene> And struggling to get USB3 going
19:25:53 <DavidWHodgins> hviaene: Due to not having the connectors wired correctly, or not working with the kernel?
19:26:07 <hviaene> Loads of stuff on the internet on its BIOS settings, but 0 up to now
19:26:26 <wilcal> I highly recommend the new Samsung FIT Plus USB stick 32 & 128GB
19:26:39 <hviaene> USB3 connectors on the motherbeoard
19:26:55 <bri_an> Hmm - I saw something yesterday about a bios update.
19:26:56 <wilcal> yes
19:27:07 <bri_an> Are you current hviaene on bios?
19:27:35 <hviaene> I guess not, I h-just got it this week
19:28:03 <bri_an> that may help fix it if is out of date.
19:28:18 <DavidWHodgins> That's one of the first things I due with a new mb or system, is to ensure all of the firmware is up to date.
19:28:20 <hviaene> I'll have a look
19:28:44 <DavidWHodgins> Looks like countdown time.
19:28:47 <DavidWHodgins> t - 5
