I tend to go through the example content, trying out each of the files with their respective default programs, OpenOffice.org, Movie Player (Totem) etc. I also open Firefox to test network connection and name resolution. Maybe glxgears too, if there's a graphics card + free driver. There have been a few pages about testing in the wiki for a while now. One aimed specifically at laptops, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTesting and another at ISO testing for alpha milestone releases, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/ISO Recently there seems to have been an re-organisation in the wiki to promote more testing. Until I looked a few minutes ago, I didn't even know there was a testing team https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing Steve -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
