    • mvl-dove: Marvell just dropped another patch set which largely included Android support and some fixes, review in progress, kexec basically works with workarounds (need to decide which workaround to use), several more bugs were found (kernel oops launching mplayer, ...), might need to get Marvell engineers involved

  • QA Status (GrueMaster, plars)

      • Both live images tested and got good coverage, one of the two net install images was testable

Weekly Reports

Emmet Hikory (persia)

This Week

  • Far too much yak-shaving trying to get a Debian armel install up
    • Preliminary work to allow libvirt and dnsmasq to coexist well for VM + embedded target work
  • A couple days attempting to track down why partman-uboot was failing (fixed in passing in ubiquity r3854)

David Sugar

This Week

  • testing a3 image for imx51
  • migrated laptop to a3
  • moved arm packaging activities to x86 hosted via qemu-arm-static
  • investigated mono runtime issues
  • arm porting updates, including gmp

Future

  • focus on some motu/lubuntu work and submit canola2 package for archive
  • new machine arriving this week
  • more arm porting and ftbfs issues

Oliver Grawert (ogra)

This Week

  • finished the split of progress handling in rootstock GUI (show different progresses for different stages of the build instead of complete build progress)
  • code cleanups in rootstock and rootstock-gtk
  • did more oem-config testing for rootstock images

  • testplan for mobile-QA to test rootstock images is online at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RootstockTestplan

  • test and work on A3 images for imx51
  • research hangs in qemu under rootstock, no final outcome yet, but seems not rootstock induced, hang of installing ubuntu-netbook at unpacking iso-codes is reproducable in plain qemu images, needs more research.
  • tested various mono fixes for armel/qemu

Future

  • Go on researching the qemu hangs when installing big tasks
  • do final rootstock gui upload
  • fix remaining rootstock bugs
  • still do more oem-config testing in rootstock images
  • convert rootstock testplan to gui testplan once the final upload is done
  • switch rootstock fully to archive (d-i netinst) kernel (needs some special handling under jaunty/karmic i.e. devtmpfs disabling)

Paul Larson (plars)

This week

  • Tested multiple respins of images on both imx51 and dove, test results documented on iso tracker
  • Wrote the remaining checkbox tests for suspend/resume testing
  • Fixed a few bugs in the suspend/resume tests
  • Started executing suspend/resume tests, opened several bugs as a result of this already
  • debugging on an audio problem I'm seeing with dove
  • bug triaging

Future

  • bug triaging
  • additional automation work
  • try to get some baseline tests for mobile-bringup-testing
  • announce and push merge request for suspend/resume tests

Steve Kowalik (StevenK)

  • Alsa testing
  • Rebuild library of test audio clips of varying sample rates, stereo/mono, audio codecs, etc. Used to have one when testing Moblin 1.0.
