Copying contents of Journal to transfer from XO-1.75 to XO-4
Hi We are swapping out a classroom of XO-1.75s to XO-4s (known as XO-Duos in Australia I think). Is there a way of taking the majority of the contents of the Journal from XO-1.75 onto USB and then putting it into the Journal of the XO-4s? I am not too concerned with getting all the data, but would like to at least get sound, video and images they have created, as well as Write files. Would be great if we can also get Turtleart projects and other activity output, so would appreciate any suggestions that people have. I am familiar with drag and drop the file from the Journal to the USB icon, but that is one file at a time, so hoping there is another way. We are planning on installing XO-system 1a (build 49) from Australia. We are assuming the XO-1.75s have an old Australian build on them but don't have these details. We'll be at the school Monday-Wednesday NZ time so hoping for suggestions or instructions within this timeframe. Thank you Tabitha New Zealand ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

I don't think there are any datastore issues to deal with.

I am familiar with drag and drop the file from the Journal to the USB icon, but that is one file at a time, so hoping there is another way. I would try the backup/restore functionality of Dextrose to accomplish that. Insert your usbkey / right click on the usbkey's icon in the journal / select backup. The backup is stored in usbkey/backups/serial number/datastore.tar.gz. Change the serial number directory of the source machine to be that of the target XO-4's serial number.

x performance problem in webkitgtk
Hi! Now that I am developing a HTML editor application, noticed a performance problem on xo1.75 latest (32011). The symptom is that text selection is very-very slow in the editor. You can test it by opening a long page from wikipedia in epiphany, selecting some text with the mouse then pressing shift+up or shift+down. Looking at 'top -d 0.3 -p pid of x' shows that while the browser is thinking about the selection, the X process consumes all CPU, then the webview is updated. The same does not happen if you just scroll the webview. I have installed firefox and it does not have the same problem either. Could you test it on XO-1 and XO-1.5, please? I think fixing this problem is quite important as it practically makes all text editing web applications unfeasible on the XO...

Re: x performance problem in webkitgtk
Just tested with WikipediaEN that it does not happen on 21021 (12.1.0) so it is a regression. On 07/07/2013 18:53, NoiseEHC wrote: Hi!

Think you ran into the same root cause as https://dev.laptop.org/ticket/12718 might be fixed in 13.2.0-12 Jerry On Sun, 2013-07-07 at 19:42 +0200, NoiseEHC wrote: Just tested with WikipediaEN that it does not happen on 21021 (12.1.0) so it is a regression.

Re: Headphone volume adjustment

I presume that behaviour is implemented by the pulseaudio core. It is probably done for the same kinds of reasons (minimum volume not guaranteed to to be inaudible, but muting does the trick). Some drivers may implement a mute intentionally, but I agree it seems likely to be pulseaudio. You can test this by moving the control with alsamixer or amixer. If the mute changes state, it is the driver doing it. If the mute only changes state with pulseaudio driving it, then it is pulseaudio doing it. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
