Today's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on Power Management
Who's available
The following cast of characters will be available for testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...
- Development - Jaroslav Škarvada (jskarvad)
- Quality Assurance - Jan Ščotka (jscotka)
Note: jskarvad will be available during CET business hours (UTC+1) on #fedora-test-day, #fedora-power, #fedora-devel, otherwise he will be on e-mail with non guaranteed response time.
Prerequisite for Test Day
- An updated Fedora 15 pre-release or you may get LiveCD, (special PM test day live image will be prepared later).
- Your hardware profile uploaded to Smolt according to these instructions
Typing convetions
In the following text commands that needs to be run as root are prefixed by #, e.g.:
# id
means to run id command under the root account. Commands prefixed by $ do not need to be run under the root account.
How to test?
Focus on pm-utils, powertop, tuned. Some test cases are only for laptop users and it is signalled in test case description field. If you do not have laptop just skip them. You can also skip other test cases (e.g. if you do not have enough time). In this case just leave the columns for skipped test cases blank. Please note that your report will be still valuable even if you do not finish all test cases. Steps:
- Run test cases bellow
- Report results to the result table
- Laptop users can upload their score from automated Tuned test (optional, but highly appreciated)

Test Results
If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla usually for the component pm-utils, or powertop, or tuned. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, 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 the first line 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 the Smolt profile of the system you tested. For each test case, use the result template to enter your result, as shown in the example result line.
