| Today's installment of Fedora Test Day will focus on user experience issues of display configuration, including multi-monitor setups, monitor hotplug, projectors, etc. We explicitly want to focus on user experience issues here, which means we want to find problems where typical user tasks that involve display configuration don't work as expected, not test an individual feature in depth. | | Today's instalment of Fedora Test Day will focus on user experience issues of display configuration, including multi-monitor setups, monitor hotplug, projectors, etc. We explicitly want to focus on user experience issues here, which means we want to find problems where typical user tasks that involve display configuration don't work as expected, not test an individual feature in depth. |

| The primary tool for display configuration on the desktop spin is gnome-display-properties, in the menus under ''System → Preferences → Display''. Another important interface to the display configuration system is the 'display' hotkey (the key that produces the XF86Display keysym) that many laptops have. On Thinkpads, this is the key combination Fn-F7, on HP laptops it is Fn-F4. | | The primary tool for display configuration on the desktop spin is gnome-display-properties, in the menus under ''System → Preferences → Display''.

| * An up-to-date rawhide installation. See the instructions on the [[Releases/Rawhide|Rawhide]] page on the various ways in which you can install or update to Rawhide. If that feels too risky to you, we also have recent rawhide live images available (thanks to the [http://www.fedoraunity.org Fedora Unity] project) that allow you to participate without risking your existing installation. Tips on using a live image are available at [[FedoraLiveCD]]. | | * An uptodate rawhide installation or a recent desktop spin live cd (provided we can produce working rawhide live cds in time). If you don't have a rawhide installation, your input will still be valuable if it is based on F11. |
| | |
| Note that these images are too large to fit on a CD. You will need to burn them to a DVD or convert them to USB images to work with them. We are working to get the image size reduced for future test days.

| | |
| Finally, if you don't have a rawhide installation and don't want to download an iso, your input will still be valuable if it is based on F11.
