The test efforts were divided in 2 tracks:
- generating a lot of network traffic in an attempt to repro the
netwokr-related lockups
- run through parts of the smoketest revisiting bugs found last week
We didn't have time to explore other areas of the smoketest as we
found plenty to keep us busy

Updated my firmware to Q2E13 and installed joyride 2302, replacing 2298.
Touchpad works under joyride-2302 but is completely unusable under 708:
the mouse cursor is stuck 99% of the time.
I have not run with extra mouse debugging enabled yet, will do that
tomorrow.
Should I try 711 instead of 708

The disconnect is that Victor has neither explained what syscalls he
wants to be able to make nor posted his patch to limits.conf. Until he

Michael,
I detect a disconnect.
Victor needs some way to be able to set the real time features of Linux;
this is certainly desirable in various audio, voip and similar
applications.
Victor has been using the facilities in limits.conf to enable particular
user's accounts to do this under linux.

Hi Deepak,
Thanks for asking.
I believe that infra mode = AP but no school server.
My take is that this is a blocker. Until more school servers are
deployed in the field, this will be one of our most common deployment
