Fedora 19 power management test day will start this Wednesday (2013-04-17).
The event will be mainly focused on laptops, but even desktop machines
can be tested. There are also prepared three test cases which are suitable
for secondary architectures, thus e.g. if you are running Fedora 19
pre-release on your ARM box, please join us and share your numbers. There
are also prepared special test cases targeting aggressive power-savings on
Intel, Nvidia and ATI / AMD (Radeon) graphics cards.
This is also on-site event that is running along with the Redhat Open House
event. So if you are near Brno, feel free to join us in person. You can
bring your hardware and test it there. There will be available calibrated
digital power meter (Chroma 66202) so you will be able to measure power
consumption of your hardware. Live USB/CD will be available so you can
participate in the test day without affecting your production machine.
There is also prepared new web application which you can use for
submitting your results, but if you prefer the wiki, you can still submit
your results through the wiki as usual. Everybody is welcome to attend this
event and your attendance will help us to make the Fedora better. Going
through all test cases take less an hour, but you don't need to finish
them all - just select test cases you are interested in, partial results
are also valuable for us. Just visit the PM test day WWW page [1] and
follow on-site instructions or join us in person [2]
thanks & regards
