Disclaimer: perhaps off-topic Usability report : Was running Firefox 3.5 (*not* the Activity). Noticed two things: * The font size (for things like the Menu Bar) was too large, with the result that various dropdowns (and settings windows) ran off the bottom edge of my XO-1 screen -- so I could not click on any buttons located at the bottom. I wonder if this has anything to do with the font size in Journal View also being too large. * The following error was logged several times: Obtaining the module object from Python failed Traceback: can't import cStringIO : /usr/lib/python2.6/lib-dynaload/timemodule,so: undefined symbol: PyExc_ValueError mikus p.s. Pretty boot has "awkward interval" before/after rotating dots. For me, sound works with "OS3" on XO-1 (though perhaps not as loud as with other builds). ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
Re: [Sugar-devel] Call for Help: SoaS & Display Manager (Auto-Login)
Regarding getting auto-login to work after restarting X. Yesterday I looked at the slim sources and it seems at first sight easy to add auto login of the default user after the first login. Any interest in me trying to implement this? If we use an extra option to slim we could push this change upstream to Fedora and then we do not have to maintain our own manager (olpc-dm). But maybe Sebastian is already happy with a working olpc-dm. Ton van Overbeek ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
sugar rawhide livecd image
Hi All, I've done a Fedora Rawhide based snapshot. Now that the mass rebuild is done for the step up it i686 I'd like to get some testing done so that we can see what impact, if any, we'll see on the XO-1 with its i586+cmov processor so that we can get bugs filed and things fixed as early in the current rawhide rotation to ensure we get a well supported F12 release. I'm going to do a new rawhide based snapshot 1-2 times a week. Let me know of any issues you see on is so we can track them.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Need Help: usb drive not visible in the journal
What version of Sugar are you running? re copy-from-journal, if you use the -q flag, it will search on the title and description fields. copy-from-journal -q 'title of some journal object' filename with copy-to-journal, it is it important to use a -m flag copy to journal foo.png -m image/png -walter On Sat, Aug 1, 2009 at 6:46 AM, sumit singh wrote: > Hi all, > > I am facing a sort of weird problem at this point.

Need Help: usb drive not visible in the journal
Hi all, I am facing a sort of weird problem at this point. On my xo, my usb drives are not visible in the journal. I mean the icons at the bottom of the journal are not visible. However, to my surprise my usb drives(pendrives) are mounted and I can access them from the terminal. I have tested it with 3 pen drives so I don't think its due to my pen drive. Moreover, these pen drives are not even visible in the objectChooser widget when I invoke it through any of the xo activities like write or paint. Can anybody please suggest me a solution. Moreover, is there any way to access the data in the journal through the terminal, I mean there are many activities which saves data into the journal and I am in severe need to access that data. Is there any way to do so. I got this link- http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Copy_to_and_from_the_Journal#Copy_from_Journal_script , but I think the names of files are hashed and I won't be able to recognize my file in this case.
