3.0 | |
Task Description
The new multiple screens betatesting is ready to be used, this task will be to better track all that is needed to betatest:
How to use it: Everything should be automated, so just upgrade your system with the command “apug” and restart to a new desktop configuration (from elive menus), which is important too. It should detect that you have multiple screens and ask you to configure them, or use an existing configuration, etc in contrary case you still have the configurator available (only one now, which is an elive tool)
Things to betatest: This is the list:
all the options and behaviours (what if select no, yes, save, not save, remove, etc), this is more or less already betatested by me
try to disconnect the extra screen, reboot computer, your desktop should be equally functional (and I assume not asking/saying anything about)
poweroff again the computer, connect again the extra screen, it should remember that configuration for your second screen and going back to these settings (without asking anything, i assume)
there’s some games that changes your screen resolution (in order to play in fullscreen), if the game exits with an error your desktop is messed up (desktop running in a strange resolution), the normal behaviour is to return to the correct resolution when the game exits correctly, but i dont know if this happens or even if goes to the correct multiscreen mode. Also: a reboot should perfectly return to the normal behaviour
maybe already said before, but switching between “using and not using” the external screen should be not a painful experience (and/or with reboots), it should be “work on the fly”
ecomorph (special effects) should work correctly, except for the “exposé effect” which doesn’t seems to like it so much (confused numbers of desktops, etc, not sure if this one works better after the full implementation)
detail: technically speaking, there’s two launching of the “load screen settings”, one happens before the desktop is loaded and the other when the desktop has started to load... in other words: if there’s a widget/question that asks for anything it should always happen when you already have access to the window controls (including window borders for example)
since i found a strange behavior with the “automated fonts sizing calculation” feature, i include this betatest point: test if the font sizes are not reconfigured “smaller than normal”
we have hotkeys to switch between virtual desktops, do we have a setup for between screens? i just tried to configure a new keyboard hotkey (ctrl + alt + shift + arrows) for switch to another screen 0/1 but doesn’t looks like to work on virtualbox... will need to do test in a real machine (and implement the hotkey in the default configuration)
Notes: if any of these betatests are not working as expected, please include the details of the “steps” about how to reproduce it, and the exact (first words) of the “conflicting” message found

Task Description
Eltrans was the easiest way to get big parts of the os translated for free. It needs to go live again, so what is the problem that prevents it from working? Is there any way we could write a new version of it so you do not need to waste your time? In that case, what are your requiremetns and what kind of interface should we give it so that it can just be put in place of the older one?

Task Description
Hola! Tengo tres problemas:
1- Al cerrar sesión el sistema se bloquea.
2- Cuando pongo el equipo en suspensión o le doy a hibernar, me ocurre que al volver al escritorio Internet no funciona y si reinicio todo vuelve a la normalidad, esto ya me pasaba con el sistema estable.
3- Cuando intento actualizar no me deja y todo es darle al botón pero ahí se queda sin poder actualizar.
P. D. - Por lo demás todo perfecto.
Un saludo!

Task Description
From the dock (shortcuts), and click-screen menu, clicking to open folders/directory crashes the whole system back to the login screen. Logs in fine, then repeats when attempted. Besides terminal, I have not been able to successfully open it. It is fully updated, which had to be done in terminal as the software centre would not execute “Restart & Upgrade” after the download. I am running Retro in Gnome-Boxes before going to metal. Everything else has seemed to be working as expected.

Task Description
I use a partition for / and another for /home. The installer recognized / as a previous Elive installation and proceeds. It doesn’t ask for /home partition nor for user creation. After editing /etc/passwd I see an eliveuser has been created but if I set that a password is required at reboot, I’m screwed because it doesn’t ask to set it.

Task Description
Iceweasel browser will not open email with hotmail.com. Hotmail.com says outdated and errors with mismatch tag. Tried to upgrade with synaptic package manager but synaptic package manager error message when reloading update lists and firefox is not available. Old versions of firefox (as in Mint 8 or other old linux distros) continue to work in Hotmail but iceweasel errors. Google Chrome does not offer add-ons that Firefox offers such as download helper so is not a good iceweasel replacement. I recently just paid for elive 2.0 and am facing errors with it being outdated. William

Using beta 2.9.2 trying to enable persistence, gives me error “You don’t have enough space available.” I re-sized the partition from winbugs ( UsbWriter-1.3 installs it to the pendrive formatting only the image size needed), created partitions next to the Live_OS one, etc and always gave me that error. But persistence works anyway.

Hi,
I have yesterday finished installation of last beta version. Unfortunately I wasn’t front of my laptop when the installation process went to an end. I think that there’s probably on last step something like how to boot the system isn’t it? Now the system doesn’t boot and I can’t access bios... Have you some idea what to now? I’ m using Lenovo ThinkPad E530c. Thanks.

Task Description
My first bug report, so let us start with an easy one !
I run Elive 3.8.2 Beta on a HP-Z620. When I want to eject a USB stick, a notification pops up to say not to unplug the peripheral because it is busy (some data having to be written on it) and stays indefinitely. No clue when/if I can pull out the stick safely …

738 | 2020-01-06 | 2020-01-23 | Bug Report | Huge installation crash | Closed | Titi | |
| |
Task Description
My test machine : HP-Z620, no nVME BIOS support (and no chance to ever have it) 480GB PCIe nVME module, no option ROM (not bootable without BIOS support) 2GB USB stick, plugged on mother board (glued inside computer) Multiboot : Ubuntu 18 LTS + Elementary Hera + Trisquel Flidas
USB stick : /dev/sda 1.8GB /dev/sda1 fat32 210MB boot,esp * EFI partition /dev/sda2 ext4 410MB * UBUNTU boot partition /dev/sda3 ext4 410MB * HERA boot partition /dev/sda4 ext4 410MB * FLIDAS boot partition /dev/sda5 ext4 410MB * spare boot partition
nVME module : /dev/nvme0n1 448GB /dev/nvme0n1p1 ext4 60GB * UBUNTU root partition /dev/nvme0n1p2 ext4 60GB * HERA root partition /dev/nvme0n1p3 ext4 60GB * FLIDAS root partition /dev/nvme0n1p4 ext4 60GB * spare root partition /dev/nvme0n1p5 ext4 200GB * HOME partition, common
Trick : USB stick is bootable, holds the EFI and BOOT partition of each system. Each boot partition contains all necessary drivers to acces the nVME root partition to finish associated OS activation. Trick : the single HOME partition is shared and used by all systems (one at a time, obviously), each system having different users names, no need to explain why !!!
So far, so good, everything working like a charm. Then I decided to install Elive on the spare partitions to test it.
I installed Elive 3.8.2 Beta using option “my disk is already partioned”, selecting /dev/nvme0n1p4 for ROOT (with format), then adding /dev/sda1 for EFI (no formatting), /dev/sda5 for BOOT (with format) and at last /dev/nvme0n1p5 for HOME (definitely NO formatting). I did not understood the last installation step where I had to specify the boot partition of my other system ??? Which one, I have 3 bootable OSes ?! So picked Hera at random. Elive installation successfully finished, I reboot the computer. All installed OSes are visible in Grub, Elive is default and I let it start, works nice.
The killing. I decide to check that all my other OSes still perform well. I reboot and select Hera as it was the system specified during the last installation step. It starts booting, I get the Elementary logo, but never ending. I try again and again but Hera does not boot anymore, OS is definitely dead ! Flidas and Ubuntu boot normally, but impossible to log in, no users exist anymore ! I boot a live stick to analyse the HOME partition and I see it has been renamed to Elive_home and no other user than Elive exists. It is like renaming the partition has lost all existing data or the partition has been re-formatted.
