Re: [sw-eco] Keyboard Support for Haiti Ethiopia - OLPC 8.1.1 bugfix release
I'm just getting some feedback from Quanta on problems with Mongolian laptops as they are producing a couple thousand this week and will be shipping them out. I will try to recreate these issues and we can see if they fit the same areas of change and if there is another fix that could be a candidate for bug fix release. Looking ahead, the next new keyboard/country that will be manufactured is Dari (Afghanistan), starting in 2 weeks from now. Perhaps I can get to testing that one as well with 703 and see what issues they will have BEFORE they have them. After Dari, there are only English and Spanish laptops for 5-6 weeks. For people who want to help with this testing, the basic idea is that you need to set your laptop to the desired country and then follow the test cases found here: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Tests/Keyboard_mappings Kim On Thu, May 15, 2008 at 5:23 PM, Michael Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Wed, May 14, 2008 at 07:54:46PM -0400, Michael Stone wrote: --- officially --- According to tickets #6973 and #6945, 703 loads the wrong keyboard map for Haiti and inappropriately invokes GTK-IM for Ethiopia.

(I'll suggest a few myself in my next email). Blake Setlow was the first to take me up on my offer; he asked me to consider the fixes for #5268 and #1002 discussed previously in: http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2008-March/012052.html and http://lists.laptop.org/pipermail/devel/2008-May/013611.html and offered his assistance testing 704 in exchange. Because #5268 is an iconic bug which may offer some relief to those with jumpy touchpads, I am inclined to consider his changes on these terms even though I suspect that it may exhaust our remaining QA resources to attempt to qualify them. If you have other issues you wish to propose, you need to do so by Sunday night so that I can make an informed decision about how to proceed if 704 turns out to be worth keeping. Michael P.S. - Dennis, Blake, and I spoke with Andres to learn of his feelings on how to proceed. He informed us that he does not consider it feasible to QA a 2.6.25 kernel or to backport his touchpad driver in time for our bugfix release. However, in preparation for our August release, he requested more extensive testing of his 'testing' kernel series, which we should endeavor to provide by using these kernels in the joyride, faster, olpc3, etc. builds. ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
