Hi,

First, thanks to all the testers that have been contributed already!

For those of you who want to help and do an one hour smoke test do:

a) Follow the instructions here to update your machine to update.1-703
and how you can install the activities

    http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Testing_Update.1

b) Do the one hour smoke test described here

    http://wiki.laptop.org/go/1_hour_smoke_test

c) File Trac tickets(if not yet open) for the problems you encountered
and leave a short note about your test here:

Thanks,
    Simon
