Hi, I checked the apache config and added the mime type for the .pr files.
I downloaded the file on my Mac and it got the correct mime type and offered

I'm not sure if the filename doesn't play a role on the Mac.
I tried on soas-strawberry and XO-802 and it did not open etoys from the
journal. Maybe etoys is looking for a different mime-type than
x-application/squeak-project?
Try application/x-squeak-project not x-application/...
It used to work on 802. And it does work in F11_XO1.5/Sugar 0.84 - I just
tried. Just go to Squeakland.org and click the project thumbnail next to
Jeopardy 3point0 which is the current project of the week.
Ok, good news! That opens in the etoys plugin in my browser so I will try
to change the mime type and test again. Thanks
Dave
Ah well, the plugin embedding code (on Mac/Win/non-sugar Linux) provides
its own mime type, so this does not really mean it will work in Sugar, where
you do not have (nor need) the plugin.
OK, I fixed this by adding
'pr' = array ('type'='application/x-squeak-project','icon'='video.gif'),
to lib/filelib.php in moodle. Looks like our version of XS did not support
this mime type for forum uploads in moodle. This should be an XS 0.6
install.
Thanks!

Re: Sugar on the Asus Eee 701

Thanks to Trademe I could pick one up at a reasonable price. For those that know me well, yes I had some help with setting up Sugar and yes I had some help with writing this post. SOAS Strawberry runs well on the Eee, but you can't really install it. There are various guides, which basically consist of First, the most interesting and handy thing about a netbook, is the ease of booting off removeable media. Many of my friends use SD cards to try out different OS. That said, you can do a full install from SOAS using the zyx-liveinstaller. You can download it http://filteredperception.org/smiley/projects/zyx-liveinstaller/ and install it with rpm and then run it. It will install to any disk, either the built in SSD or a removable USB or SD card. This is just one option, of course. Dave Install anaconda Run liveinst Fight with partitioning (hint, don't choose automatic, choose custom, delete everything and make an ext3 partition) Fix the resulting broken redhat installation with no graphical interface by installing the entire KDE stack and messing with inittab (note, you'll need a wired ethernet connection, or epic iwconfig fu) Install sugar The first work around was just to dd the SOAS usb image directly onto the Eee's drive. This was good, the Eee boots quickly and starts sugar by default, however our USB image was only 1GB so we couldn't use the rest of the disk, and the journal complained that it was full, even when it wasn't. I think the journal problem was probably to do with the tricks the live image performs to boot of read only media, since we did a byte-for-byte copy of the live image, these are all still present when booting from the Eee's drive. I'm told a future version of SOAS may support installation to the hard disk. The current solution is the Ubuntu Netbook Remix and Sugar from alsroot's PPA. I used the Karmic Koala Beta and updated to the latest packages. This wasn't entirely plain sailing, Sugar's web browse activity didn't work until I did apt-get build-dep python-hulahop, see this bug. This has made the Eee a really nice platform, you can alt tab between Sugar and your other apps but not the netbook remix menu thing, so you can't start new non-sugar apps without quitting Sugar. The only real problem is the Eee 701's low res screen - not all activities are designed to shrink this far, Scratch being the most missed example as it is my nieces favourite. The things you do (or your helper does) to please a nine year old. Big thanks to said helper for giving up about 10 hours more than I thought we needed. Sharing the experience, I hope that this helps the developers see where the issues were and that next time I try this (I have another Eee ready) that it is easy to see improvements - I can wait a while ;-) ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel -- Dave Bauer d...@solutiongrove.com http://www.solutiongrove.com ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

I think some of your comments below may still be relevant but I don't entirely understand. I suspect that part of the problem is that you are using the IP address. Sugar will see whatever DNS or IP addr you provide there and will try to connect to jabber and create an account as follows: - machine-id@jabberservername On XO hardware, machine-id is the serialnumber. On other hw, it creates a random string on first boot. The problem with the scheme is that jabber on the XS expects a very specific jabber servername for the account: its own name (as given to domain_config) prefixed with 'schoolserver.' OK, we can workaround this two ways, Use schoolserver as the jabber server name in the settings then 1) set the IP in /etc/hosts as a quick hack to make sure things work 2) set up the SoaS to use the built in DNS on the XS. Using the DNS seems problematic, probably due to my lack on knowledge. If we do that we need to defer to the network DNS for everything except the schoolserver hostname. If kids take the stick home, what happens with the DNS if we put the XS into resolv.conf? The SoaS is not getting DHCP from the schoolserver due to the setup where the XS is just inserting into the same LAN as the clients. Dave If the name doesn't match that format, then it breaks. The workaround is to use schoolserver.mydomain in the SoaS control panel. A more proper solution is probably to bring back 'registration' :-) hth, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Sugar-devel mailing list sugar-de...@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel -- Caroline Meeks Solution Grove carol...@solutiongrove.com 617-500-3488 - Office 505-213-3268 - Fax ___ Sugar-devel mailing list sugar-de...@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel -- Dave Bauer d...@solutiongrove.com http://www.solutiongrove.com ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
Re: [Server-devel] Gadget on XS
Here is what I have so far:
XS 0.6
Install frm kickstart
Edit /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0-local for static IP
run /etc/sysconfig/olpc-scripts/domain_config
Make sure ejabberd is configured correctly
Edit /etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg
Restart
ejabberdctl --node ejabb...@schoolserver start
Gadget
Get RPM
http://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/packages/gadget/0.0.3/2.fc9/noarch/gadget-0.0.3-2.fc9.noarch.rpm
More Info: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=95961
yum install python-twisted
rpm -i gadget-0.0.3-2.fc9.noarch.rpm
Edit ejabberd.cfg to support gadget
Hostname is gadget.full hostname ie
gadget.schoolserver.xsdev.solutiongrove.com
It looks like its not using gadget but local collaboration. I turned off the
shared roster and shutdown ejabberd and I think it might be using local
collaboration instead of the server.
I need more debugging.

server_host = 'localhost'

Can you point to those instructions you followed to your success? The question is, IMO: what does gadget do better? The best I understand is that when there are many XOs it can show a random subset in your network view. That is all that is _implemented_ at the moment. It may show promise but what we have is this. And I don't find a random subset very compelling. The patches I've done for ejabberd + moodle make a lot more sense, IMHO. And scale a ton more because Moodle feeds a bit of data to ejabberd and gets the hell out of the way. It's not clear to me how ejabberd+Gadget (erlang+python) scale in terms of memory, resource contention and CPU. Frankly, I'd love to get rid of my ejabberd patches. Right now, I'm doubtful that Gadget will satisfy the Sugar team's expectations. Unless Gadget has moved forward considerable in the last 3 months, or if it's generally just more advanced than I think it is. It is my understanding it somehow uses less network resources, but I don't have that much information. For my specific application, I will be using the Moodle/ejabberd combination, but as someone asked, I figured I would try it out and see if gadget worked. I can at least report I was able to configure it As noone is working on gadget right now, and I don't have any information on how it works or where one would go to get that information, or how to use it to improve collaboration, I can't do much with it.

Does it really make sense to rely only on Moodle being on the internal network to provide security? You are right, and a lot of my pre-OLPC work has been in making the largest of those installations work smoothly in scale, security, performance, customisations... In those cases, Moodle is a webapp. In this case, however. Moodle is the central UI for most things XS. Some things XS change how the XS behave. For example, I am drafting a bit of code that will let you configue eth0 and 'domain_config' from a Moodle-based UI. So on first boot, the XS comes up in a special mode that lets you set those 2 things. Once this work is done, you no longer need to login as root. Ever. Cool, maybe a switch to turn this off would be useful for those who are running a different configuration. Dave On the other hand, it'd be serious trouble if Moodle started listening on the public address. Right now Moodle seems to be reasonably meek... but I haven't thought that through actually, it may have risks too. The bottom line is: Services that are on the LAN address have not been designed to be on the WAN address -- many (most?) of them are a security risk if exposed to the WAN today. As the XS evolves, _more_ services will pose a risk if exposed to the WAN. So -- put your test/dev machines on the LAN to play with things. The XS will hand out DHCP leases to non-XOs, you can create normal user accounts in Moodle (from the 'course creator'-blessed XO) so that things work. Using non-Sugar XMPP clients (mostly) works too if you're on the LAN. hth, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff -- Dave Bauer d...@solutiongrove.com http://www.solutiongrove.com ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel

Re: [Server-devel] notes on scaling ejabberd for the XO's
So what does gadget do? Is there a new client side UI for electing groups? Who chooses, the kids or the teachers? etc. Gadget: * Shows people you have explicitly friended (which is trivial, that's just a conventional non-shared roster) * Shows you some random people on the server so you can bootstrap your friends * Has a search API so you can search for specific nicks (I don't know if this is implemented client-side yet.)

Fantastic! One interesting data point would be whether the new software stack (sugar with the new telepathy-gadget) is backwards compat with an XS that has no gadget. Preliminary tests show it works fine. We have been testing SoaS against XS 0.5.2 and it performs the same as jabber.sugarlabs.org (which I believe has gadget installed).

It said check for updates and when I did it downloaded all the G1G1 activities. This works on my AMD linux box without changing the kernel. I'll try to the modifications later and see if I can get it working on my Macbook also.
