Can you more or less reliably reproduce it? Just to point at the code that should handle the unexpected shutdown: http://dev.laptop.org/git?p=projects/datastore;a=blob;f=bin/datastore-service;h=aba711221eded35ad919196ea0942072d96d966c;hb=HEAD#l49 We should make sure that the shutdown is handled gracefully and there's no index corruption nor a stale locking file.

I tried several times to reproduce this issue by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Erase while doing various things on the XO but did not run into it.

Joyride 2230 Mikus, any idea about how we could better reproduce it? Thanks a lot for your testing, is very appreciated.

You might know this - but just in case and for others reading: if the datastore fails to come up for any reason, the datastore storage dir (~/.sugar/default/datastore) gets moved aside and a new one is created. If you lost your journal this way, the files are in ~/.sugar/default/datastore.XXX . It will be interesting to know why ds failed to come up and file it as a bug if relevant. Do the logs in .sugar/default/logs say anything interesting? cheers, m -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
