What to test?

Today's Fedora Test Day will focus on the Intel graphics card driver.

If you come to this page after the test day is completed, your testing is still valuable, and you can use the information on this page to test with your graphics card and provide feedback.

Who's available

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

Development - Adam Jackson (ajax)
Quality Assurance - Adam Williamson (adamw)

What's needed to test

An Intel graphics adapter (i810 or later, except GMA 500 / Poulsbo)
An updated Fedora 42 pre-release, or the special live image (see below)
Your hardware profile uploaded to Smolt according to these instructions

How to test?

Update your machine

If you're running Fedora 42, make sure you have all the current updates for it installed, using the update manager. Or you can use a live image:

Live image

Optionally, you may download a non-destructive Fedora 42 live image for your architecture. Tips on using a live image are available at FedoraLiveCD.

Architecture	SHA256SUM
i686	4553b73f8fab46fbb85384974decc7f9595e5c7af6df76e303cef5e62a76e07f
x86_64	e59d1886f7b766011b89d88369d09a4dd46bd7ba8a25664e9de0430d0f8725d7

Testing

Follow each of these test cases:

QA:Testcase_intelvideo_basic
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_gnome3 - ALL post-865 cards should support Shell: if you get fallback mode, please report the test as warn and file a bug, but first see if logging out and in again gives you Shell: if so, it's probably Bugzilla: #679326
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_dpms
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_xv - NOTE: Totem is known to crash when trying to open a file, run totem filename from a console or double-click a video file to test
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_rotate
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_restartx
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_rendercheck (can take some time to complete, from 10 minutes to an hour or two)
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_glx
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_fastuserswitch
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_vt
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_suspend

Multihead test case:

QA:Testcase_intelvideo_multihead

You will need two or more monitors to perform the multihead test.

Optional extended OpenGL test cases (some of these will require you to at least move around in games):

QA:Testcase_intelvideo_3D_pymol
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_3D_avogadro
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_3D_openarena - NOTE: we do not recommend running this test when booted live, live boot 'installs' into a RAM disk and the space requirements for the game will likely exhaust your available RAM
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_3D_tuxracer
QA:Testcase_intelvideo_3D_mesa-demos

These will provide more detailed testing of 3D functionality. Please file bugs for any failures you find if running these tests.

Report your results

If you have problems with any of the tests, report a bug to Bugzilla usually for the component xorg-x11-drv-intel. If you are unsure about exactly how to file the report, just ask on IRC and we will help you. Follow the instructions on this page to ensure you include sufficient information in the report. Once you have completed the tests, add your results to the Results table below, following the example results as a template. The first column should be your name with a link to your User page in the Wiki if you have one, and the second should be a link to your Smolt hardware profile (see above for a link with instructions on submitting your hardware profile to Smolt). For each test case, use the result template to enter your result, as shown in the example result line. If you could not perform one test (for example, you cannot perform the more advanced tests because the basic one fails, or you cannot perform the multihead test as you have only one display), enter the word N/A. In the comments column, you can enter the model name and PCI device ID (vendor ID is usually 8086) of your card, if you know it - you can usually find this information in the output of the command lspci -nn.

This also sometimes occurs with glxgears running and opening the shutdown dialog. ↑ Ran pm-suspend. First time succeeded. Second time hung the graphics. Mouse moves, windows are not interactive, ctrl-alt-f2 kills mouse, ctrl-alt-f* doesn't do anything from that point. ↑ Double FAIL! BZ639057 still present from F14, plus BZ680333. Along with BZ680325 and suspend issues, this makes F15 completely unusable for this laptop

However, about ten minutes later the system slowly died with symptoms similar to Alex Williamson's, above. Could also be because I left glxgears running in each of the two users I had switched to, following Eric Blake's theory of a resource leak.
