What to test?

WARNING: These are OLD test results, for the CURRENT test see the 2010 test page:Test_Day:2010-04-13_Nouveau

Today's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on the proposed new default driver for NVIDIA graphics cards, Nouveau:

• Features/NouveauAsDefault

If you come to this page after the test day is completed, your testing of Noveau is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test Nouveau with your graphics card and provide feedback.

Who's available

The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...

• Development - Ben Skeggs
• Quality Assurance - Adam Williamson

What's needed to test

• An NVIDIA graphics adapter. To confirm whether you have supporting hardware, run the following command:

  /sbin/lspci -d 10de: | grep -iq VGA && echo "Join Nouveau Fedora Test Day" || echo "No nVidia graphics hardware found." 

• Rawhide (tips on installing Rawhide below), or the live CD available for this test day (again see below).
• FAS Account - you can create an account in 3 minutes if you don't have one
• Your hardware profile uploaded to Smolt according to these instructions
• Make sure to back up your existing xorg.conf file, if you have one, so you can recover if the nouveau driver causes you trouble

How to test?

Update your machine

See the instructions on the Rawhide page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. Or:

Live Image

Optionally, you may download a non-destructive rawhide live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.

Architecture	MD5SUM
i386	f5852f27e324fb87f4d060abf44d16dc
x86_64	195e48300a94c65289ffdb20d4eeb2d4
Other Versions

Latest syslinux package?
Creating a LiveUSB of this rawhide image requires the latest version of syslinux, which is currently available in Rawhide and in the latest Windows liveusb-creator. Users of F10 and below can upgrade to the latest syslinux package using

yum --enablerepo=rawhide update syslinux

.

Test

Follow each of these test cases:

• QA:Testcase_nouveau_basic
• QA:Testcase_nouveau_xvideo
• QA:Testcase_nouveau_restartx
• QA:Testcase_nouveau_kms (Only available for GeForce 8 and newer cards currently)
• QA:Testcase_nouveau_rendercheck (requires 15 minutes)

Multihead test case:

• QA:Testcase_nouveau_multihead

You will need two or more monitors to perform the multihead test.

Report your results

If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, just ask on IRC and we will help you. Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results from Adam Williamson as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, and the second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see above for a link with instructions on submitting your hardware profile to Smolt). For each test case, if your system worked correctly, simply enter the word PASS. If you had trouble, enter the word FAIL, as a link to the bug report for the failure. If you could not perform one test (for example, you cannot perform the more advanced tests because the basic one fails, or you cannot perform the multihead test as you have only one display), enter the word N/A. In the comments column, you can enter the model name and PCI device ID (vendor ID is usually 10DE) of your card, if you know it - you can usually find this information in the output of the command lspci -nn.

Will May	HW	PASS	PASS	N/A	N/A	N/A	PASS	7600GT. Hit bug 492316 (mouse disappearing near corners of screen) but it's apparently fixed already. The only other thing was that the video took a lot of processing power when the window was moved around and also playback occasionally had jagged lines in it as if it was interlaced poorly.
