Re: funny behaviour gtk+python

yes, it's true, but at the moment, I can't see a substitute for strtod(), and we can't put a dependency on gtk or Python in the Csound engine. I can't find an ascii_strtod(). Would it work if we added a call to setlocale() just before the call to strtod()? Victor This really needs to be fixed

font size when running under emulation?

I just installed the OLPC software in VMWare and Qemu, but the font size is so small that I have trouble reading it. My understanding is that this is an emulation (screen resolution) issue and it'll be a lot larger on the actual OLPC? Is there some way to configure the screen resolution on the

olpc password?

Is there a password for user olpc? I set one for it to be able to ssh to the XO, but it seems to have upset the X server and on reboot I could not get the graphics (flashed in and then failed). Thanks Victor ___ Devel mailing list

Re: Fixed memory address

Hi, I think we could run prelink on the OLPC images from within pilgrim, just before converting it to jffs2. It will result in a slight speedup in startup time, but nothing compared to importing modules that dominates startup time of the Python activities. Actually, I did

LANG=am_ET causes funny collating order

Hello Ulrich and Jakub, sorry for bothering you for what seems to be an OLPC specific bug, but I guess you can help me understand the issue here. If I set LANG=am_ET, strcoll() acts as if strlen() was a sorting criteria! For example, ls outputs file names sorted by their lengths first, and
