Hello, There are two bugs which effect all of my installations recently: blocker: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=720571 as it happens on all installations on my physical test machine, so installation is never completed. annoying: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=721183 as installation hangs in the middle when using vmware, but at least it continues fine once I send the virtual machine an "alt+ctrl+reset" The rest are just small annoyances.

Hi,

as no participants with time to attend appeared for our testing meeting, I just email things here.

First topic was the experience with our 12.1-Beta

Sorry, but something has come up that will prevent me from being available for tomorrow's meeting.

For entry into the log, my experiences with 12.1 Beta 1 are as follows:

...

I have installed on 3 real machines (2 x86-64 and one i686) and one 32-bit VirtualBox VM. All instances are updated every 2-3 days with 'zypper up' with Factory repos enabled. For the most part, everything I need for my normal operations is functional.

...

The main exception is a failure in systemd for my main 64-bit laptop. It failed in MS6, worked for a while with Beta1, and then started failing again. The symptom is that it hangs in the middle and never completes. I need to enable debugging to see what fails. Systemd is fine for the other instances.

...

I still have the complaint that the KDE plasmoid network manager applet asks for the system password too often, but otherwise it is functioning.

...

I still have problems with the nouveau driver for my main laptop, but it works on a desktop with nVidia graphics.

I have two machines running Factory full time and a third installed with it. Most things just work. There were several reports about problems with fresh installs of 12.1-Beta that were attributed to https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=720571 I also noticed black tooltips in LibreOffice on KDE that did not appear in icewm or gnome. Will file a bug.

openQA currently shows random problems when rebooting into the installed system or rebooting later (hangs when shutting down network). Overall, results should get clearer during the next days.

You may add your own experiences by responding to this thread.

Second topic was Beta Pizza Party planning. There is one party scheduled to happen in Nuremberg in SUSE headquarters and all 12.1-Beta or Factory users are invited to join in. You find details on time and place on http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:BetaPizzaPartyNBGAttendees If you plan on joining the event, please add yourself to the list.

People are encouraged to organize their own pizza party in their area and add details to http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:BetaPizzaParty
