What to test?[edit]

Today's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on user experience issues of peripherals. We are interesting in the problems you face when plugging anything into your computer, be it a mouse, a keyboard an external hard drive, a modem, a printer, a camera, a phone, a music player, a GPS or whatever.

Who's available[edit]

The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion: Matthias Clasen, David Zeuthen, Bastien Nocera

Prerequisites for Test Day[edit]

An up-to-date rawhide installation. See the instructions on the Rawhide page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. If that feels too risky to you, we also have recent rawhide live images available that allow you to participate without risking your existing installation. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.

Note that the images will be removed shortly after the test day, since they are strictly for test day usage only. Warning: I was bit by the bug having to do with notification area icons not showing up. I killed nm-applet and ran it directly to get onto my wireless network.

For the Go online with a phone test, you'll need the latest versions of NetworkManager and gnome-bluetooth
A variety of gizmos that can be plugged into a computer. See above for a representative list of devices that might be good to test
A good mood. Remember; while we are poking into things that may make us angry or frustrated, we are doing it to make things better

How to test[edit]

In this test day, we want to find small and large issues that ruin the user experience of working with devices that can be (hot-)plugged into your computer.

Test cases:

Here are some things to look at:

Does the desktop react in the right way if you plug in your device ?
Is a suitable icon used to represent the device ?
Do the relevant applications 'see' the device, e.g. does a music player appear in rhythmbox ?
Do applications react appropriately to the device being unplugged ?
Do things work in the same way if the device is already plugged in before boot or before login ?

Things that work alright[edit]

Tester	Description
pfps	USB sticks work as usual (surprise!), except I see "Aug 11 09:11:29 localhost gnome-keyring-daemon[2253]: mount_added: assertion `identifier' failed" and "Aug 11 09:12:05 localhost gnome-keyring-daemon[2253]: no volume registered at: /media/CF" on unmount plus "Aug 11 09:13:40 localhost usb_id[3250]: unable to access '/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-2/1-2:1.0/host12/target12:0:0/12:0:0:0/block/sdc'" on eject
pfps	USB to SATA disk works (and eject option available!), except I see the second and third messages from USB stick test above
pfps	USB multi card reader works, except I see the first and second messages from USB stick test above
mclasen	USB webcam works for both video and audio out of the box
kparal	USB stick works ok - auto mounting, auto showing contents, showing desktop icon, showing warning for too large files, informing user when is safe to eject device (see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=516647 - multiple partition bug on F11, also on rawhide?)
pfps	PCMCAI to CF adaptor working as expected - modulo above messages
kparal	Accessing data on phone using Bluetooth works ok
pfps	Thinkpad T60p disk in bay (PATA->SATA!) works ok - modulo above messages
mclasen	Changing sound output devices moves streams without glitch
mclasen	Volume up/down keys on USB speakers bring up the OSD
pfps	eject on USB sticks (and CF cards in adapters) correctly unmounts all partitions
pfps	Filesystems with pictures correctly offer to import the pictures (Cameras are a different matter, though)
danw	USB ethernet adapter shows up in nm-applet when plugged in, and NM falls back to next device when you unplug it
vbenes	sending file to phone via bluetooth works fine
