Just a quick update of where i am at, at present.
There are a bundle of new features i am working on, i will put a few new releases into extras-devel - but not send anything into testing until PR1.2 comes out - as i will need to sort out the version numbers.
So far included and working are:
LED Pattern selector
Vibrate Pattern selector
Sound Test selector
To be added soon:
More space / disk information
Proximity checker
Dead pixel screen test
Bluetooth information checker
More detailed accelerometer and GPS Info
SQL Info - if i can (Amount of SMS data etc) - not sure on this one yet.
External IP addresses
Better graphics / ease of use
Individual updates + constant reads - such as accelerometer data.
I'm still interested to hear of any other information.
For those having issues on install, the software does call on alot of modules on installation. This is because it is trying to test alot of things.
I have added quite thorough debugging into the programme, and i'm adding even more!
To get to the debugging, go in x-terminal (On every device)
type
Code:
python /opt/healthcheck/healthcheck.py
The program will then dump the debug lines into x-terminal, you can then paste it into here, or screenshot it (CTRL+SHIFT+P) and upload the image as an attachment.
When i get home tonight i will list all of the extra modules used and hopefully how to recify any possible issues, like
gobject
and
hildon
issues.
Secondly, there have been two people mentioning a battery drain with healthcheck, obviously i would like to prove either way, and have run my own tests... so far it hasn't happenned to me... So it could be device/dependency specific.
Running conky at the same time(or htop) should help you identify any other issues.
Anyway, happy healthchecking, and will update you all with a shiny new version for testing soon!
