Re: [Sugar-devel] Fwd: #841 UNSP: SoaS should support using a proxy server
I am working with a school in NH where we can get Sugar to boot and run on some of their machines but we can't get it to connect to the internet because the school uses a proxy server. I am going to a NH LUG meeting tonight to try to recruit a local linux person to help support them. Is this likely to be a pointer to how to fix their internet connection problems?

[Sugar-devel] [sugar-devel][olpc-haiti] Offline Maps Beta 2
Everyone's still snowbound here in Pittsburgh, so I made some significant updates to the OfflineMap activity. Right now it's being designed for Haiti, but if there's interest the same codebase could be used by another deployment. * Satellite Maps: Gonaives,Grand Goave,Miragoave,Anse a Galets,Etroits * Roadmaps: PortAuPrince,Lagonav,Jacmel,Leogane,Jeremie,Sant Marc,PortDePaix * Add to maps with markers, lines, and shapes: roadmap-level precision * Load Google Earth KML files with 100 points, rivers, polygon areas * Activity can be shared, markers editable by all users * When connected to the internet, you can paste from OSM or Google Maps Information and Screenshots: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Ndoiron/OfflineMap Download: http://haiti.latest.disaster-tool.appspot.com/OfflineMaps-2.xo Tutorial, links to sample KML files: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Ndoiron/OfflineMapTutorial Regards, Nick Doiron ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

We have a bug on 802/8.2.1 where in some cases (specific combination of WPA2 with certain AP chipsets) we fail to associate on the very first attempt, and then subsequent attempts succeed. This is an 8.2.1 regression, because several libertas patches were added late with little testing. I would suggest reverting those patches. The reason that it works in F11 is that those patches were never sent upstream and hence are not included in that kernel.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Fwd: #841 UNSP: SoaS should support using a proxy server
Hi Caroline, You might want to try setting the gnome proxy server settings as I believe (this theory is untested) xulrunner and telepathy should recognise those settings. you can get that by running gnome-network-properties which is part of the control-center package (no idea off hand if that is in SoaS by default), but you can also set it using the command line but I'm not sure how off hand.

[Sugar-devel] [RELEASE] Sugar Settings Manager 0.87.1
Hello, I just release Sugar Settings Manager version 0.87.1 Currently the settings manager, if started while Sugar 0.87.x is running, monitors the font related GConf keys and applies the changes real-time (as the GConf values change). Note that this is not yet a part of core Sugar (glucose). We decided to keep this separate till it gets a reasonable amount of packaging done. For proper integration, check out the patches at http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1692 Link: http://download.sugarlabs.org/sources/external/sugar-settings-manager/sugar-settings-manager-0.87.1.tar.gz Thanks, Sayamindu -- Sayamindu Dasgupta [http://sayamindu.randomink.org/ramblings] ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
