RC1 Release notes: 283 fixed since 2006-0.3 14876 packages rebuilt (6291 i586, 4167 x86_64, 1592 noarch, 2826 ppc) DrakX 1.1074 / Drakxtools 10.3-0.55mdk don’t package drakvpn as it is unusable Packaged installed Don’t install gnome-alsa-mixer when detecting alsa, gstreamer-alsa is enough Don’t crash when xorg-x11 is not available printer: Install “desktop-printing” only on sytems with installed gnome-panel, Discovery does not ship GNOME and also not desktop-printing. Fixed endless loop when clicking “Back” in model selection, when by autodetection no model was found. Do not set margins in CUPS when HPIJS is the driver, for this driver the margins are already well set. Also match model name with added lower-case “hp” with HPLIP XML database. When auto-detecting network printer models via SNMP, guessmanufacturer name from model name Fixed printer list filtering in the main window, now one can also filter on the state field, and pressing after typing in the filter string does not cause the filter being lost when hitting the refresh button or doing some action. Taken care that auto-refreshing does not happen when the refresh function is running. Auto-refresh the list of remote printers in the main windows every 5 seconds. Made reloading of parallel port kernel modules (for auto-detection) also working if “ppdev” module is loaded. Let also network printers be found which do not answer to a broadcast ping (most newer HP). This is done only in class C and smaller networks, to not scan too many machines. Check for CUPS daemon running without console output. Fixed retrieval of parallel port base address. Fixed parallel printer auto-detection and registered IEEE-1284 ID string for Mandriva hardware database. Fixed USB IEEE-1284 ID string output. Added recording of IEEE-1284 device ID string, for USB printers. When having added one’s own PPD file now it gets pre-selected in the printer/driver list. Fixed recognition of alredy set up queues for auto queue setup, for several Xerox Phaser printers the user was asked again and again to set up a print queue. When setting up new queue with HPLIP old HPOJ config was not deleted during installation. Fixed. Support for HPLIP URIs with “?device=…”, possible fix for bug #18041 and bug #18053. authentication : fix bug #18180, allow Active Directory even on non corporate product (requested by our commercial team) Change definition for Active Directory with SFU and Active Directory Winbind Remove idmap ldap backend for winbind AD (obsolete, see Samba 3.0.20) Remove default_tgs_enctypes, default_tkt_enctypes, permitted_enctypes from /etc/krb5.conf for winbind configuration, Buzgilla 15232 bootloader: handle “=” between keyword and value (esp. useful for reading conectiva’s menu.lst) (bug #18090) Conectiva: set isUpgrade to conectiva when we found a conectiva release file, also look for conectiva-release new functionality: upgrade_by_removing_pkgs, enabled when upgrading redhat and conectiva distributions add file upgrade-map.conectiva.10 for precise choice of packages Look&Feel: simpler and better code, allowing forcing scrolling to bottom new advertising nicer “Details” mode do summaryBefore() only once (this will reduce damage caused in Bug #18277) new “Image_using_pixmap” which is rendered using DITHER_MAX which is much better on 16bpp displays Network: don’t translate strings here configure wpa_supplicant correctly for shared or passwordless connections wpa_supplicant may list some networks twice, handle it rewrite drakroam to use wpa_supplicant fix isdn config in manage interface use lower case ‘i’ in iwconfig/iwpriv/iwspy ( Bug #18031) Drakroam: really allow to select the network sm56 support allow to run perl code as post command don’t display keyring icon if the wireless network doesn’t need a key set SSID for rt2400/rt2500 cards using WPA with an iwpriv command ( Bug #18205) enable Interactive firewall by default in high security levels and enable the psd rule kernel 2.6.12-11mdk assorted x86_64 fixes from current git tree: fix 32-bit thread debugging fix TASK_SIZE for compatibility mode processes fix overflow in NUMA hash function setup fix bug in csum_partial_copy_generic() fix HPET for systems that don’t support legacy replacement add support for more than 8 cores on AMD64 systems tell VM about holes in nodes avoid wasting IRQs disksearch 1.1.0 Catalog and search tool for removable media pxelinux 3.10 A PXE bootloader klamav 0.22.1 KDE frontend for the Clam AntiVirus? virus scanner rpmdrake 2.20 Mandriva Linux graphical front end for sofware installation/removal zapping 0.9.6 A TV viewer for GNOME bazaar 1.4.2 A distributed revision control system compatible with arch gxine 0.4.7 GTK+ frontend for the Xine multimedia player kdetv 0.8.8 Kdetv - KDE Video4Linux Stream Capture Viewer poppler 0.4.1 PDF rendering library evince 0.4.0 GNOME Document viewer pygame 1.7.1 Python module for interfacing with the SDL multimedia library streamtuned 0.16.2 Audio/Video stream player and recorder aptitude 0.3.3 Curses-based apt frontend penguintv 0.76 Media-rich RSS reader openldap 2.3.6 LDAP servers and sample clients gnome-photo-printer 0.6.5 Simple Photo Printer for Gnome sympa 5.1.0 SYMPA is an electronic mailing list manager dvgrab 1.8 DV grabber through the FireWire? interface gtk+2.0 2.8.3 The GIMP ToolKit?

In addition to the traditional ‘Bugzilla’ system, beta-testers now have the opportunity to use ‘Testzilla’ to ensure that tests are performed consistently and accurately for main features. Testzilla is a powerful new system for validating large-scale systems in a collaborative way over the Internet. It is designed to work in collaboration with Bugzilla and adds hardware coverage capabilities to the testing process. Testzilla enables testers to: Use pre-existing test procedures to detect bugs Create new test procedures Here’s how to get started testing and reporting bugs with Testzilla: 1) Open a Bugzilla account at http://qa.mandriva.com 2) Select, then follow the test procedures available in the Testzilla section at http://qa.mandriva.com 3) Report any bugs or say ‘OK’! How to contribute new Testzilla procedures? 1) Read the Testzilla documentation at http://qa.mandriva.com/twiki/bin/view/Main/TestZilla 2) Navigate through procedures at http://cvs.mandriva.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/testzilla/procedures 3) Use existing procedures as a template for creating new ones 4) Submit the new procedure by sending an email to testzilla a t mandriva.com Important note : Testzilla should be seen as an initial step in formalizing the QA process in cooperation with the community, and in this particular case, to offer strict procedures to make major component validation possible. For in-depth tests that aren’t covered by Testzilla, Bugzilla continues to be available. Happy testing!
