Would be good to consider to include my fix for #6540 then. It's waiting
review and merge from a Read developer.

 You will see that there are plenty of new stuff in joyride than just a
 telepathy-salut update.

 One thing we can do is use 693 and install the specific package, or make a
 new Update.1 build that includes it. But we should test it individually
 before putting it in the update.1 build.

 One thing we can do is have half the XOs with 1721 in one channel,
 and the other half with 693 in another channel.

So we need a new read package and a new telepathy-salut.  Giannis  can you 
please make sure we have a trac bug filled requesting these.  Who do i need 
to talk to to get the Read build done?

If Etoys sharing is to be tested, then you need to update the etoys  
rpm (was approved for update.1, trac #6548).

Hi,

On second thought I think a new Read build is not required for this. 
However, there is a newer version available in joyride that's not in 
update-1, I'm making a ticket for that.

Guillaume: your patches are on master and will be included soon.

Thanks Yani. I think we need to start with Update.1 and add the required
fix(es) to that until we can get the next build together. Who can help with
that?

Ricardo, if you think there is anything else different with B4s in regards

They don't suspend.  So if MP's have networking trouble that happens when
a laptop suspends, the trouble won't happen on a B4.

Right. But the suspend and resume problems we've seen with the mesh and
sharing can be recreated on a relatively small number of laptops (10). So
we will either fix the problems, or turn off suspend in order to test for
scaling issues above 50. We have 50 MPs for next weeks testing.

So we should be ok.

Kim,

The suspend/resume problems will show even with 2 XOs. This cannot be fixed
at the moment.

As Michalis mentioned in another email, testing S/R and mesh scalability
will just break the test. We have to test them invidually.

Preparing the XOs for next week's test

2008-02-22 Thread Giannis Galanis
A couple of stuff for the next week's test.

1. We have about 45 XOs in the conference room, and we can make it up to 80
by collecting other XOs in the office. Do you think this is enough?

2. I will try to update all of them with the build we will agree to
initially test with. This would be 693/D13?
There is a new version of telepathy-salut in 1721, which apparently only
fixes smth related to stream tube flush(which i dont know what it is). I
dont believe it important to our test. Other than that Update.1 i think
should be ok.

3. I can also disable suspend/resume in all of them in case we decide we
dont wanna have it enabled. It will save alot of time by doing it on monday.

If there is anything you think might be useful to prepare in advance, let me
know!
