[OLPC-AU] Auckland testing 3 November 2012

Auckland testing 3 November 2012
Who: John, Oliver, Tabitha, Tom

Testing olpc-au builds on XO-1.75 and 12.1.0 on XO-1.

Ran Software Update on au888 and found it blocks the whole GUI during 
some operations but not others. It overlays anything in the “activity” view.
You can’t differentiate between what is an upgrade (for example chart) 
and what is a new install (for example DidgArt) as they all say “New 
Version” which to me implies they are upgrades.
What is the difference between the ok and cancel buttons? If you select 
something, and then click OK the updater disappears rather than 
installing it.

Digart 27 seems to work well. It has the small mouse pointer instead of 
the big sugar mouse pointer. The small oval is too small to reproduce 
the drawing in the activity icon, the legs and the dots are much too big 
by comparison.

When playing back things from within Record the sound is very very 
crackly sometimes. We reported this in browse a couple of weeks ago.

Tam Tam is broken

Sound quality varies dramatically depending on the playback level when 
played from within record.

Timeline (not part of the build but added using software update from my

Measure on right hand channel have to adjust volume level but all the 
volume control is right at the top


Hoiho XO-1.75 C2 build au889 0.94.1
Record 96.1 had some speaker crackling issues on some video playbacks 
but not everytime
Speak 42 basic test works
Tamtam mini  63.1 basic test works
Memorize 36 - works, can play all preloaded games and sizes, can create 
basic text game
Ruler - rotate screen and the measurement from the edge of the screen is 
no longer accurate - change the writing on the screen?
Stopwatch 16 works
Clock 9 works
Paint 43 works

Hoiho in Maori
Read works
Browse is almost fully translated - remaining two translations are “set 
home page” and “go to homepage” buttons.
Maze works
Moon fails to start
Clock doesn’t talk and has day of week in English
Ruler works and is translated
Speak works but has a bad accent
Write works, found you can make a line over the a in Maori by typing Ma 
then holding alt gr whilst pressing the - key. Yay! Seems to have menus 
translated.


Read needs instructions on how to get a book. As it stands it is pretty 
unusable

12.1.0 on XO-1 had some trouble with wifi network display in the 
Neighbourhood. We test in a heavily populated wifi area, our network 
appeared for a while and then disappeared. There are many worrying 
exceptions in shell.log (attached).
