Can't make the date?
If you come to this page before or after the test day is completed, your testing is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test, file any bugs you find at Bugzilla, and add your results to the results section. If this page is more than a month old when you arrive here, please check the current schedule and see if a similar but more recent Test Day is planned or has already happened.

What to test?[edit]

Today's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on Silverblue . You can download Silverblue ISO image from Fedora 29 Beta 1.5 for testing and verify the cheksum of downloaded media.

Who's available[edit]

The following cast of characters will be available testing, workarounds, bug fixes, and general discussion ...

Run the tests[edit]

Visit the result page and click on the column title links to see the tests that need to be run: most column titles are links to a specific test case. Follow the instructions there, then enter your results by clicking the Enter result button for the test.

This testday is also meant to be exploratory, so the list on the testday app is not at all comprehensive!

Reporting bugs[edit]

If you find anything that seems wrong or off, please file a bug in bugzilla. The affected component should be clear from whatever error message you happen to find, but if you aren't sure, file a Silverblue issue or ask in IRC. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report or what other information to include, just ask on IRC and we will help you.

  1. The usual boot messages regarding the non-standard AMD Phenom processor's.
  2. I have reviewed the Boot logs, the installation log, the user logs all using journalctl and it seemed to be okay.
  3. All of the usual services I deal with started well, though I am not an IT professional, am a developer though.
  4. So far Selinux seems to be behaving correctly, again I am not an IT pro and haven't run into a use case where I had to make any changes to or be concerned about the operation of Selinux
  5. Started and stopped different services today, everything I tried responded as expected

  1. Since I did the rebase as my current user I assumed it would actually copy over my user information to include in the new ostree. It did this, however during initial startup of the new ostree it ran the first time new user setup, which I couldn't figure out how to skip. After setting up a superfluous user, I logged in with my preferred user account.

  3. I didn't have any services (I noticed) not starting as expected. I still haven't fully tasked my system since the install though, this may change after I do.
  4. So far I haven't need to manipulate (ie start/stop/kill) services.

  3. All applications I searched for were not found (wireshark, virt-manager, dia, gimp). Unable to install applications from All group. Attempting to install Geary gave error "Unable to install Geary as runtime "sdk.gnome.org" not available".
  4. Some process started after I edited the /etc/ostree/remotes.d/fedora-workstation.conf file, but before I could run the 'sudo rpm-ostree rebase fedora/29/x86_64/silverblue' command. When I ran the rpm-ostree command I received: "error: System transaction in progress" I received that error for around an hour. The rebase process took around an hour. I'm speculating that the system ran the rebase upon the fedora-worstation.conf file being edited and saved, but I have no proof. Once I was able to run the rpm-ostree command, everything completed properly.

Also, it's easy to get stuck on app details screen if Gnome Software window is closed when app detail is displayed. On the next startup the same page is shown, however, the back button doesn't work. Apps from Flathub work correctly, only runtimes installed with the app are not removed with the app and kept installed.

  1. Installed several flatpaks, as well as setup the Evolution flatpak as per the directions on the Gnome site. I all worked as expected. There is a strange thing that happened once, and I couldn't get it to repeat so I am not sure it is a bug or not, however when closing out Evolution I was unceremoniously kicked back out of Gnome to the login screen. I tried to get it to repeat, with no success.
  2. I am saying this passes because it does notify you that there are updates (whether kernel or flatpak) however, if you try to use software to perform the actual update it fails, everytime.
  3. I'm not sure if this is pass or fail since the only thing I can see in addons are the extensions, no fonts, codecs, etc...
  4. rpm-ostree update worked fine
  5. Again there is a caveat. I was able to rebase from F28 Silverblue to F29 but when the rebase was done and I booted into the new ostree it wouldn't let me proceed without creating a new user.
  6. Rebase worked just forced me to add a new user at first boot of the new image.

  1. Firefox displayed gnome-apps-nightly.flatpakrepo as text, but "flatpak remote-add ..." completed successfully.
  2. Ran "gsettings" and "touch" commands to shorten wait time and rebooted. No notification ever received. Confirmed "gnome-apps-nightly" appears in list of repositories displayed by "software". pkmon reported: Transactions: [none] daemon connected=0 Failed to get properties: Error calling StartServiceByName for org.freedesktop.PackageKit: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.TimedOut: Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.PackageKit': timed out (service_start_timeout=25000ms)
  3. Browsed for, viewed, and attempted to install software application GNOME Dictionary. Install failed with following message: Unable to install "GNOME Dictionary" as runtime "sdk.gnome.org" not available.
  4. Initial "sudo rpm-ostree upgrade" reported "No upgrade available.". Reboot succeeded. fedora-workstation.conf already contained the updated gpgkeypath, so no rebase was possible.

  1. I didn't enable sudo for the user during installation, I usually use non-admin user or root, so some problems might arise from this:
    • Firefox didn't open the link, I had to add it manually from the terminal
    • I tried to install gedit (Nightly) from the added repo using gnome-software, it didn't work, I got the message 'Unable to install gedit as runtime "sdk.gnome.org" not available'
    • I got gnome-apps-nightly in the gnome-software sources, which is the correct (expected) behavior.
  2. Looks like my mirror brought me an older version of metadata, so "Unable to get a list of updates", GDBus.Error:org.projectatomic.rpmostreed.Error.Failed: Upgrade target revision 'some_checksum' with timestamp 'some_timestamp 18-september' is chronologocally older than the current revision 'some_other_checksum' with 'some_other_timestamp 20-september'; user --allow-downgrade to permit
  3. I couldn't install VLC using flatpakref file, Software said "Failed to install file: not supported", but I could install flatpakrepo file, so I added flathub this way Still, couldn't find flathub apps in Software, using flatpak command, I got some timeouts, but Software never complained, and didn't show any apps Web apps (e.g. twitter) found in search, installed, and removed normally. Also software sources work fine

  1. Firefox does not open the repo file. Installing the repo file manually succeeds, but attempting to install any software through Gnome Software fails with 'Unable to install...as runtime "sdk.gnome.org" not available'
  2. Update notification never appears, but checking for updates manually with Gnome Software shows no updates available. A dialog asking for the root password for software updates appears on every boot, and appears again when checking for updates with Gnome Software.

  1. Its obvious that using RC 1.5 we will not get any update. So picked the f28 rebased f29 system. I did not get any notification so used "rpm-ostree update" and it worked. Got a small update and system got updated from 29.20180916.n.0 to 29.20180918.n.0 tree

  3. As there is no way to track System transaction progress, I had to cancel it and manually did "rpm-ostree upgrade". It worked. Both the upgrade and rebase repo downloads were tremendously slow.
  4. The rebase download was very slow

  1. Fails to install gnome-apps-nightly repo by opening https://sdk.gnome.org/gnome-apps-nightly.flatpakrepo in firefox. Adding repo from terminal sudo flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists gnome-apps-nightly https://sdk.gnome.org/gnome-apps-nightly.flatpakrepo works fine
  2. F28 Silverblue upgrade and then rebase to ref fedora/29/x86_64/silverblue works fine
  3. I think due to slow mirror, it sometimes fails to rebase as well. Saw following errors during two attempts: 1. Receiving metadata objects: 183/(estimating) 46.4 kB/s 2.0 MB error: [56] Failure when receiving data from the peer 2. Receiving metadata objects: 783/(estimating) 8.6 kB/s 1.3 MB error: [35] SSL connect error
  4. Rebase from F28 Silverblue to ref fedora/29/x86_64/silverblue works fine for both automatic and custom partitioning

  1. RHBZ #1620584 Same issue as the case without upgrading Silverblue 28 first - again, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1620584. This time around I captured a traceback. Seeing "radeonsi_dri.so" in the traceback makes me suspect the GPU software - the machine has an AMD Sea Islands card and is using the "radeon" kernel module.
  2. RHBZ #1620584 This looks like https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1620584. I have this issue on only one of my two systems, so I think it's graphics-card related. I have yet to make this scenario (rebase from 28 to 29) work on this system. However, a fresh install with the 1.3 beta ISO comes up in Silverblue 29 with no problems.
