Re: [Sugar-devel] [PATCH] Pulsing icon delayed by 5 seconds or so SL#2080

However, that's wrong. We need to use a clear _subset_ of what dpkg, rpm, portage(... etc) can do, so the distro packager retains its flexibility (see: epoch). Defining the version string as identical to the pre-epoch portion of a debian version string says a lot more in 11 words -- and with more precision -- than the entirely of the dotted version string proposal so far. This is the power we get from *building* on other's work, instead of reinventing it. (But we should remember what problem debian is solving with epoch numbers, and think really hard about why this could never ever ever happen to us before getting rid of them.) You could make a similar proposal based on redhat version strings, etc. We all *think* we need a subset right now. And then you'll find that subset grow, and mutate, etc, etc. We are all better off if we implement a well understood standard, even if we don't think we need all of its power immediately. It is true, dpkg considers 1.1-peru to be an upgrade over 1.1-argentina, due to alpha ordering. But that has no useful meaning. My personal feeling is that the peru and argentina part isn't really a version number, it's something else, which is misplaced here. But I don't feel as strongly about that. Either solve the problem correctly, or solve it as simply as possible. This solves it as simply as possible. I've outlined several simpler solutions. QED. Again, I think either the slightly more complicated (but more precise and easier to describe) solution (debian version numbers, exactly), or a simpler solution (say, just use only even version numbers for upstream releases, save odd numbers for localization teams) is preferred to the present proposal, which I think is both too complicated (by defining its own ad-hoc version string semantics) and too simple (0.1 possible, 0.0.1 impossible, at least according tohttp://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Dotted_Activity_Versions). That page is outdated. The proposal is laid out in Gonzalo's initial mail. Sorry for the confusion.

We need as well your help to actually discover the bugs! There are basically three ways how you can test as of today (besides using sugar-jhbuild): * Install Fedora 14 on a machine and install the Sugar desktop * Test using Sugar on a stick: Get one of the nightly snapshots [4] and put it on a usb key. You can find instructions about it at [5]. It is good to subscribe to the Soas mailing list (low traffic) [6] for announcement and discussions in that case. * If you have an XO (XO-1 or XO-1.5) you can use an image from [7]. If you are aware of any other distribution where Sugar 0.90 can be tested easily please comment. In some cases there are new rpms for Sugar 0.90 that are not in a build yet and you want to verify if those fix an issue, you can do the following: - download the new rpm and put it on a usb-key. - insert that usb-key in an XO - open a terminal and to become user root type: su - then update the rpm with the following command: rpm -U sugar-0.90.2-1.fc14.noarch.rpm Note: You have to add the path to the file on the usb-key to the command from above. Usually the path is something like /media/[random characters]/sugar-0.90.2-1.fc14.noarch.rpm Sugar is a noarch rpm [1] for sugar-toolkit you have to pick the i686 rpm [2]. - then restart Sugar Regards, Simon [1] sugar: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=199034 [2] sugar-toolkit: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=199033 ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

It's supposed to be fixed (haven't checked myself yet) in recent Xorg versions. Bernie has also written a patch that lets metacity work around the bug. With that patch applied, metacity-message disable-keybindings works fine again. Bernie can you give some light on the issue in Xorg and where it has been fixed, if? ISTR somebody got in touch with the metacity maintainers to land the workaround, but don't know what got of it. To get the workaround (or an Xorg fix) into distros we will also need to report this bug to them. For Debian nobody did this so far and for Ubuntu there has been no follow-up from the reporter so the ticket is marked as Incomplete.

Tomeu, only took me two years to re-investigate and take action). I'm
connecting a callback to the visibility-notify-event and then testing if
data.state == gtk.gdk.VISIBILITY_FULLY_OBSCURED. Took me ages to track
this down, but seems to be working a treat, I'm about to test outside of
my VM dev environment and onto an XO-1:
FWIW, this is what I do in one of my activities (a simple digital wall
clock):

event.state))
self._set_may_freeze(event.state == gtk.gdk.VISIBILITY_UNOBSCURED)

X window has been unmapped (i.e. is invisible now).
logging.debug('unmap')
self._set_may_freeze(False)
def _size_allocate_cb(self, widget, allocation, *args):
Size for self.time_label has been (re)set.
Recalculate font size if necessary.
[...]
if self._unmap_cb_handler is None:
window = self.time_label.get_parent()
self._unmap_cb_handler = window.connect('unmap-event',
self._unmap_cb)
window.connect('visibility-notify-event', self._visibility_cb)
window.add_events(gtk.gdk.VISIBILITY_NOTIFY_MASK)
[...]
def _set_may_freeze(self, may_freeze):
self._hide_cursor(may_freeze)
self.may_freeze = may_freeze
if may_freeze:
self._schedule_freeze()
else:
self._set_dcon_freeze(False)
For other activities there might be a better match than size-allocate
for when to connect the callbacks to the window.
Perhaps we could move some of this to sugar.activity.activity.Activity
so activity authors could concentrate on the resource freeing part?
Maybe even coupled with a timer to prevent us from slowing down quick
activity switches (i.e. the user switching forth and back between two
activities in quick succession).
Sounds like a very good idea to me.

[Sugar-devel] Make Your Own Sugar Activites! is on Lulu.com
A couple of people had expressed interest in buying a printed copy of Make Your Own Sugar Activities! from Lulu.com, only to find it was not available. We had to remove it from the site to rework the book, making the fonts bigger and more readable, improving the page breaks, and creating brand new art for the front cover. I just got a review copy this weekend and it's a vast improvement. We've made the book available again, and you can get it here: http://www.lulu.com/product/paperback/make-your-own-sugar-activities/12995552 It's available as a beautiful Crown Quarto sized paperback and also as a free PDF download which is perfect for use with the Read Activity. This might be a great stocking stuffer for that special geek in your life. I don't get any money from the sales of this book; that goes to FLOSS Manuals, who provided the software that made creating the book possible. That doesn't mean I don't want it to be a best seller!

Re: [Sugar-devel] Proposal of dotted activity version number
So the proposed 1.2.3-peru numbering scheme really is a 1.2.3 scheme with an optional trailing taint hint? It probably makes better sense to clearly distinguish those two essentially separate issues: * mainline numbering + integer + triple integers + Debian-style triple string scheme + other? * how to officially handle slight forks + extending triple integers with fourth integer/string + non-version suffix to version + separate field + no official support + other? The easiest for Debian would be if you version your code using triple integers, as that properly supports multiple branches (which you _are_ doing, whether you admit it or not!). debian care not about deployment forks, but I sure recommend that you do support it properly - which means make room for it in the versioning string and admit that forks are versioned too - not only a non-versioned flag. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
[Sugar-devel] Testing Problem using Fedora LiveUSB Creator (was: Schedule after Sugar 0.90.0 is released)
FWIW, I've been trying to give recent daily builds a test run - both to spot problems in the projected 0.90 release and see how my own activities fare. I download the x386 .iso and install it with Fedora LiveUSB Creator (v3.9 - see further below) on my WinXP system. All goes along fine until I attempt to boot my computer using the resultant USB stick. It won't boot. It gets to a test screen with a SYSLINUX line at the top and a blinking dot on line 2, and stays there. Final SoaS builds boot fine via LiveUSB Creator, but to my knowledge, all nightly SoaS builds I've tried have suffered the above fate. Is this expected? Is there a (simple) alternative? (Is this a bug?) Also (Luke), I've had to use v3.9 to make my SoaS sticks rather than v3.9.2. The latter won't install on my XP machine; it complains about a configuration error and suggests reinstalling (which I've done to no avail). I've also uninstalled before reinstalling; nothing seems to help. Reverting to v3.9, everything works fine.

Some items are rather near term goals but there is as well the long road that leads to a new release --- 0.92 (1.0). === Branching === After the final release of a module, a branch should be created to host further stable development. If you do not have an 'unstable' commit yet you can leave your branch as is, as this ease the work for translators by not having to translate for two branches. The details about branching are described at [1]. === Bug fix release === To make sure we have the latest packages in F14 before the Final Change deadline happens the 18th of October [2], I added another bug fix release [3]. As Fedora is the bleeding edge at the moment we just backpack on this date. * 0.90.1 will be the 15th of October * 0.90.2 will be the 27th of October === Testing 0.90 === So far we have not seen much testing of 0.90 yet, that is why the bug fix releases noted above are so important to us. We need as well your help to actually discover the bugs! There are basically three ways how you can test as of today (besides using sugar-jhbuild): * Install Fedora 14 on a machine and install the Sugar desktop * Test using Sugar on a stick: Get one of the nightly snapshots [4] and put it on a usb key. You can find instructions about it at [5]. It is good to subscribe to the Soas mailing list (low traffic) [6] for announcement and discussions in that case. * If you have an XO (XO-1 or XO-1.5) you can use an image from [7]. If you are aware of any other distribution where Sugar 0.90 can be tested easily please comment. === 0.92 === Based on the GNOME schedule I made a first draft of the 0.92 roadmap. I reintroduced the Feature Acceptance milestone. The idea is that the discussion about a feature does not start one day before the feature freeze. As stated in the Feature policy [9] the acceptance is a sanity check, presumed in most cases to be a formality, to ensure that new features compliment Sugar guidelines and is manageable, prior to publicizing as officially targeted for the next release. The actual code must be ready by the Feature Freeze and is reviewed by the module maintainer.

Even without waiting much, it's clear we're leaking objects referred to the UI representation of the access points. `iwlist scan ` spots 37 APs, and that's roughly what you see in the UI.

When I dump the entries of the top one with .theone, the object looks like a UI widget for an AP.

We will then sync the Debian packages to Ubuntu Maverick (they will be available in a ppa) a week or so later (thanks Seeta). david In some cases there are new rpms for Sugar 0.90 that are not in a build yet and you want to verify if those fix an issue, you can do the following: - download the new rpm and put it on a usb-key. - insert that usb-key in an XO - open a terminal and to become user root type: su - then update the rpm with the following command: rpm -U sugar-0.90.2-1.fc14.noarch.rpm Note: You have to add the path to the file on the usb-key to the command from above. Usually the path is something like /media/[random characters]/sugar-0.90.2-1.fc14.noarch.rpm Sugar is a noarch rpm [1] for sugar-toolkit you have to pick the i686 rpm [2]. - then restart Sugar Regards, Simon [1] sugar: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=199034 [2] sugar-toolkit: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=199033 ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
[Sugar-devel] [PATCH v3 sugar] Pulsing icon delayed by 5 seconds or so SL#2080
When we click on the icon of an activity we see a pulsing icon of that activity before the activity starts and usually there is a time delay between the clicking of the icon and appearance of the pulsing icon , where tha amount of delay differs by the complexity of the icon i.e. more complex the icon is larger is the delay. So here we tried to reduce that delay if not completely obliterate it , by making the duration of the first 5 pulses larger and during these 5 times the icon will only be zoomed in and not zoomed out so as to reduce the frame calculation load on the processor, Hence reducing the delay. --- src/sugar/graphics/animator.py |6 +- 1 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) v1 was Reviewed-By: Simon Schampijer simon at schampijer.de v2 was Reviewed-By: Sascha Silbe silbe at sugarlabs.org v2-v3 Corrected Range parameter in the for loop and reformatted the code according to pep-8 diff --git a/src/sugar/graphics/animator.py b/src/sugar/graphics/animator.py index 8fb298b..3121e6e 100644 --- a/src/sugar/graphics/animator.py +++ b/src/sugar/graphics/animator.py @@ -25,7 +25,7 @@ import gobject EASE_OUT_EXPO = 0 EASE_IN_EXPO = 1 - +i = 1 class Animator(gobject.GObject): @@ -140,6 +140,10 @@ class Animation(object): # last frame frame = self.end else: +for i in range(0, 5): +easing = EASE_IN_EXPO +duration = duration * 100 +i = i + 1 if easing == EASE_OUT_EXPO: frame = change * (-pow(2, -10 * t / duration) + 1) + start elif easing == EASE_IN_EXPO: -- 1.7.2.3 ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

To solve the above bug i am thinking of clearing the text in the text to be translate box when ever the language to be translated is being changed. Please provide suggestion on any better approach to deal with this bug. Over the last month this list has seen a significant increase in requests for pointers. Asking questions is an healthy part of learning, but asking for 'pointers' is _not_ going to be particularly helpful. It shifts the effort to the person answering the question rather then the person asking the question. Effectively asking questions is an art. Asking question is so important that Eric Raymond, author of the Cathedral and the Bazaar, has written and maintained an article about how to ask questions the smart way at http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html . I strongly suggest reading the article. The time spent learning how to ask questions the smart way... and asking questions the smart way will pay for itself very quickly. Questions asked the smart way will generally get quicker responses and better answers. Two additional points -- If you are new to the list please clearly describe 1) What you know, 2) What you don't know, 3) and what you think you have to learn to solve your problem. This provides the person answering the question a sense of scope. This is very well put, lately I have felt like I would need to explain most I know about software engineering in order to give an useful reply. And if anyone feels dumb expressing what they don't know.

[Sugar-devel] chooser/datastore documentation
I am struggling with getting my activities to behave in consistent ways when using the chooser and datastore.find() between Sugar 0.84 and more recent Sugar versions. (For example, I cannot get find() to process mime-type query in 0.84 but it will handle a title query. The exact opposite seems to be true in 0.90. Of course, I could be doing it all wrong.) Similarly, I cannot get what_filter to work with non-GENERIC mime types, but that again could be user error. (I am trying to choose only Python objects, for example.) I've searched unsuccessfully for documentation on what works in which versions. Does such documentation exist somewhere? thanks. -walter -- Walter Bender Sugar Labs http://www.sugarlabs.org ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
