If I was to setup a system to do some testing of Argyll on a wider distribution of Linux and other similar systems, what would people recommend I try and set up ?
For the purposes of testing, it's best if the systems cover a broad range of differences, rather than simply trying to cover every possible combination.
Say I had an AMD 64 systems with a 320 Gbyte drive, and partitioned it into 10 Gbyte chunks, this would allow me to load up around 30 different systems, if not for comprehensive testing, at least for being able to reproduce reported problems.
What comes to mind are:
MSWindows: Windows 2000 Windows XP Windows XP 64 Windows Vista (sometime!)
Linux: SUSE Linux 10.1 SUSE Linux 10.1 64 bit Ubuntu 5.10 Ubuntu 6.06 Fedora Core 4 Fedora Core 5 Fedora Core 5 64 bit Debian Linux 3.1r2 BSD: FreeBSD 6.1 OpenBSD 3.8 NetBSD 3.01 NetBSD 3.01 64 bit
Comments or suggestions ? Additions ?
Sould Solaris testing be of any interest ?
