<div dir="ltr">And testing is going to be a lot rough at first. I started using Tim's suggestion to build up an automated server from <a href="https://github.com/XSCE/xsce-tests" target="_blank" style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:14.6666669845581px">https://github.com/XSCE/xsce-tests</a>. But when it didn't work, I discovered that I was using an XO1.5, and the code had been written for an XO1, but the documentation didn't indicate anything about the hardware platform.<div><br></div><div>In any case, if you clone <a href="https://github.com/XSCE/xsce-tests" target="_blank" style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif;font-size:14.6666669845581px">https://github.com/XSCE/xsce-tests</a>, you don't need to go through all the process of making a stick, and loading it on a XO1 using tiny core linux. The useful scripts are in the /testing folder. You can use git directly on an XO to fetch them. </div><div><br></div><div>And then the scripts themselves will need to be modified I think, based upon which server mode you are testing (appliance, lan-controller, or gateway). An appliance exists on an infrastructure which already has gateway, dhcp, dns, etc). A lan-controller is sufficient to itself, and gateway is a lan-controller plus. Obviously not all test are appropriate in every mode.</div><div><br></div><div>I will be the guinea pig, and start testing my rpi2 installation, and share with you all the trials and tribulations. For that purpose I have created a public spread sheet, (now mostly empty) which I will use to document my testing progress. I invite everyone to contribute and tweak that page, and maybe collectively, we can make it a snapshot of what works and doesn't.</div><div><br></div><div>This new publicly writeable sheet (with this link) is at <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18Y07kuAiHyMGJNQLydgo7GbuHShu_F5BQWA3egt_1PU/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18Y07kuAiHyMGJNQLydgo7GbuHShu_F5BQWA3egt_1PU/edit?usp=sharing</a></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sat, Mar 28, 2015 at 10:29 AM, Tim Moody <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:tim@timmoody.com" target="_blank">tim@timmoody.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-US" link="blue" vlink="purple"><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">and, of course, each application needs testing for functionality apart from did it install and does it run.<u></u><u></u></span></p><span class=""><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d"><u></u> <u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">From:</span></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"> Danishka Navin [mailto:<a href="mailto:danishka@gmail.com" target="_blank">danishka@gmail.com</a>] <br><b>Sent:</b> Saturday, March 28, 2015 1:24 PM<br><b>To:</b> Tim Moody<br><b>Cc:</b> Adam Holt; <a href="mailto:unleashkids@googlegroups.com" target="_blank">unleashkids@googlegroups.com</a>; xsce-devel; server-devel<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [UKids] Enthusiasm for a Centos School Server is wonderful<u></u><u></u></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><u></u> <u></u></p></span><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><u></u> <u></u></p><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><u></u> <u></u></p><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">On Sun, Mar 29, 2015 at 1:11 AM, Tim Moody <<a href="mailto:tim@timmoody.com" target="_blank">tim@timmoody.com</a>> wrote:<u></u><u></u></p><div><div class="h5"><blockquote style="border:none;border-left:solid #cccccc 1.0pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-right:0in"><div><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1f497d">At this time, and subject to testing, xsce can be installed on Fedora 18 (for XOs), 20, and 21 and on Centos.
