Finished downloading and installed Alpha TC1 KDE on a VM

Code:

[andrew@localhost ~]$ rpm -q kernel kdebase
kernel-3.0.0-1.fc16.i686
kdebase-4.7.0-1.fc16.i686
[andrew@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/fedora-release 
Fedora release 16 (Rawhide)

Going to try this on some real hardware soon.

im interested in Gnome, have they improvved on the lack of stuff in control-center

**AdamW** · #7 2nd August 2011, 08:27 PM

note that TC1 has quite a few bugs, this is really for validation only. if you're testing it it'd be greatly appreciated if you could contribute your results to the validation pages:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_...ha_TC1_Install
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_...Alpha_TC1_Base
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_...ha_TC1_Desktop

but check first whether bugs you find have already been reported, many already have (such as the inability of network installs to work as they can't find the repository). thanks all!

Adam

how come the LiveCD's of Gnome arent building?

**AdamW** · #9 3rd August 2011, 06:57 AM

detox: read the logs!

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/g...ame=livecd.log is for today.

Error creating Live CD : Failed to build transaction : empathy-3.1.3-4.fc16.x86_64 requires libcogl.so.1()(64bit)

so, there's a dependency issue there. I think cogl got a bump recently, so empathy will need a rebuild.

**AdamW** · #10 3rd August 2011, 07:01 AM

actually, it looks like there's a few things depending on cogl that needed a rebuild, and they all have been rebuilt - but the rebuilds didn't make it into the repo the nightly composes are using yet.

#11 3rd August 2011, 07:11 AM

so we can expect a working Nightly or a TC1 liveCD next week or no?

**AdamW** · #12 3rd August 2011, 09:57 PM

nightly, depends when the tree gets updated. tc1, there ought to be one, we're still trying to get releng to put it out.

#13 4th August 2011, 12:29 AM

ohh ok, thanks Adam , i shall keep my eye out if/when there will be a LiveCD

good idea, but is there any difference to gnome desktop in F15 at a moment? I would like to see some improvement and solved problems ... maybe someone who made it can comment on this
