Hi All,

This is the muchly belated results from a week and a bit ago for the
Wellington testing group.

People that came; Carl, Grant, Alastair, Martin, Uli

Physics application (latest at the time), use of magic pen inside any
existing shapes, application crashes.

We tested a bunch of Laptops with Sugar On a Stick: Sound works fine
generally.
HP/Compawq nx7400 - works fine!
HP Mini - boots, no Wifi, works with the big green USB Active Mesh
antenna. Built-in wifi is Broadcom BCM4312. This chip works fine in
Ubuntu 8.10 using closed source driver. Cameras not tested due to lack
of software. /dev/video0 node appears on HP Mini though, so probably
works ok.

Connecting to network causes X to die, and liveuser home directory to
disappear.

Cheers,
Edward Murrell
