Announcing the Desktop Testing Team

This sounds interesting:

How will it work?

One of the good things about this program is that you, as testers, will be able to know every time what to test, you will be able to check the new features before anybody else, and you will gain experience on the Ubuntu development process. Also, there will be a mailing list to share your experiences, bugs and to have direct feedback from the developers.

How can I participate?

Start by joining the Launchpad team and subscribe to the mailing list. Introduce yourself in the mailing list, tell us about you and what applications are you mostly interested in. Create an account in the tracker (if you already have an account at iso.qa.ubuntu.com it will work as well).

Internode ubuntu mirror:

http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/ubuntu/releases-DVD/10.10/

Going to start testing a bit more intesely before the 10.10 beta, hopefully can use iso’s off the internode mirror, see no reason why not.

testing indicator-session

[22:14] <elleuca> could someone test if patch to bug #436887 is fine?
[22:14] <ubot4> Launchpad bug 436887 in indicator-session (Ubuntu) (and 1 other project) “Log out, shutdown and reboot confirmation alerts don’t follow GNOME HIG (affects: 3)” [Wishlist,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/436887

[00:53] <elleuca> you need to grab indicator-session from bzrusing
[00:54] <elleuca> bzr branch lp:indicator-session
[00:55] <elleuca> then apply the path
[00:55] <elleuca> patch -p0 < patch.diff
[00:55] <elleuca> an finally rebuild and install it
