Auckland Testing Summary 20 October 2012
Who: Fabiana, John, Oliver, Tabitha, Tom
13.1.0 for XO-4 (build 7):
The touch screen is working beautifully in this build, with no strange
pointer, no calibration errors, good accuracy. There is some jiggling if
you hold your finger motionless on the screen.
The on screen keyboard never appears, even when you select it from the
frame.
There is no way to get the frame with the touch screen.
While using the mouse pointer, it’s quite easy to have the frame appear
and then not go away. Briefly hitting a corner with the mouse and moving
back to the centre will cause the frame to appear after which the only
way to get rid of it seems to be to return to a corner or use the frame
key on the keyboard. The problem is not that the frame appears, but that
it doesn't disappear.
Logging in to google docs crashes Browse.
There doesn’t seem to be any way to right click or hover to get a
context menu when using the touch screen.
Ctrl-Shift-t does not open a new tab in terminal.
Alt-Tab does not switch windows.
vmeta drivers for XO-1.75 don’t work for playing back video. Does the XO
4 have the same hardware? Can it use the same drivers?
One Education OS 1.2 (build au49) on XO-1.75 and (build au249) on XO-1.5
Moon doesn’t work in Maori - fails to start, just gives pulsing icon.
Talking clock doesn’t talk at all when language is set to Maori (as in
there is no sound). The days of the week are all written on the screen
in English, while the rest is in Maori.
“Goodbye” in the shutdown screen is not translated to Maori. This might
be an image rather than a word to translate.
Some of Typing Turtle is not translated to Maori, including the text
balloons which you are invited to type.
Tuxmath starts and shows the first screen (which is not translated to
Maori) but crashes on XO-1.75 when you click “Play” with a “cannot
execute binary file” error in the log. Tuxmath works on XO-1.5.
Once on Rosella (an XO-1.5 with sentelec finger sensing pad) the
touchpad went crazy, moving rapidly in a vertical line with no
horizontal motion. Then it stopped moving altogether. It seemed to come
right after pressing a key on the keyboard.
Rosella also took a very long time to boot (several minutes) on one
occasion. I eventually noticed it hadn’t booted, switched to a text
console and by the time I brought a camera in front of the screen,
booting continued.
Arithmetic doesn’t have a Maori translation.
In Record, high quality does work on XO-1.75, but the quality is very
very low. Low quality is even lower! It would seem the XO-1.5 and 1.75
have similar recorded video quality.
The build doesn’t expand to fill the size of the disk, leaving 4GB
unused on an 8GB laptop.
Get Books and Read work on XO-1.75.
If you rotate maze, the game keys don’t rotate, so things get very
confusing. The rocker rotates as expected. The playfield also extends
off the screen in some rotations. Perhaps maze should not support rotation?
On Ivy (an XO-1.5), Tam Tam Mini crashed, with grey screen and 100% cpu
usage. Please find attached two backtraces from two different gdb
sessions attached to the same process one after the other. The two
traces are very similar.
Slider puzzle has incomplete Maori translation
In calculate the Show History link is not translated to Maori
Record’s toolbar shows the stop button in a dropdown even though there
is room for it when using Maori:

There are three buttons not translated to Maori in Memorize - load game,
new game and what ever the other button on the create game screen is
(you try testing with a toddler and remembering buttons!)
Jigsaw Puzzle has not been translated
Thanks testers
