Re: [Server-devel] extension of Moodle authentication mechanism
Thank you. I'll spend some time studying it and try to write up some documentation, and use cases.

Re: [Server-devel] extension of Moodle authentication mechanism
For full disclosure. This feature has been sitting on the side lines because of its kludginess.

Re: [Server-devel] extension of Moodle authentication mechanism
In fact, the only feature so far is mimic authentication mechanism used by Moodle. I documented [1] how Moodle's/XO autologin works and implemented it using Flask, the Python web micro framework. Next step will be to turn xs-authserver into an authorization server maybe using OAuth. This would allow to use xs-authserver as an identity provider by external services easily. If you have problems running xs-authserver, take a look to this issue [2] in DXS. 1: https://gist.github.com/migonzalvar/279de1bbf414df1fad8c 2: https://sugardextrose.org/issues/4759#note-3 On Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 6:41 PM, David Farning dfarn...@activitycentral.com wrote: For full disclosure.

Re: [Server-devel] How to create a screencast
Here's a few commands I played with from an XO-1, then tried to view stream.ogg from my desktop. I couldn't get streaming to work, though, all it did was display a static screen capture. gst-launch ximagesrc! ffmpegcolorspace ! videorate ! videoscale ! video/x-raw-yuv,framerate=5/1,width=320,height=240 ! theoraenc quality=16 ! oggmux ! shout2send ip=schoolserver.local port=9000 password=dxsstreaming mount=stream.ogg streamname=Test description=Screencast gst-launch ximagesrc! ffmpegcolorspace ! videorate ! videoscale ! video/x-raw-yuv,width=320,height=240 ! theoraenc quality=16 ! oggmux ! shout2send ip=schoolserver.local port=9000 password=dxsstreaming mount=stream.ogg streamname=Test description=Screencast gst-launch ximagesrc! ffmpegcolorspace ! videorate ! videoscale ! video/x-raw-yuv,framerate=15/1,width=160,height=120 ! theoraenc quality=16 ! oggmux ! shout2send ip=schoolserver.local port=9000 password=dxsstreaming mount=stream.ogg streamname=Test description=Screencast On Mon, Oct 28, 2013 at 3:03 PM, George Hunt georgejh...@gmail.com wrote: Nosing around I found https://github.com/scollazo/dxs/blob/b6f016a69f5304a20710ea58baf0679bfad05e01/docs/TESTING.rst Which I believe answers my question.

[Server-devel] what I'm working on
Hi xsce team, I've been having fun working on little things that were not replicated by ansible playbooks. I started generating pull requests so everyone could see what I'm working on, even though I'm leaving for a week in Baja, and the work is not really complete But our new workflow really requires more testing and completeness than I have achieved before I leave. I'm not generating pr's on incomplete work. So here are the things I've got branches for, and done some work on: - openvpn - vnc-remote graphical administration - avahi-announce - a spec file that generates rpms that include hash tag, version, selectable base name - man-pages ___ Server-devel mailing list Server-devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
