Either the file changed (unlikely), or your download did not complete?

Check the sizes and md5sums.

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).

Re: [Sugar-devel] Call for Help: SoaS & Display Manager (Auto-Login)

2009-08-01 Thread Ton van Overbeek
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.

sugar rawhide livecd image

2009-08-01 Thread Peter Robinson
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.

Cheers,
Peter

Re: [Sugar-devel] Need Help: usb drive not visible in the journal

2009-08-01 Thread Walter Bender
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

Need Help: usb drive not visible in the journal

2009-08-01 Thread sumit singh
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.

Kindly give your suggestions.

sumit
