Re: [Testing] Software update problems in OLPC 10.1.3

2011-01-08 Thread Mikus Grinbergs
Admittedly, the XO-1 system I tested with is customized.  And I
installed build os860 on it from scratch with 'copy-nand'.

I install Activities manually, rather than with software install.  With
Help-12 (from 'help-12.xo' gotten via activities.sugarlabs.org) on that
system, My Settings -> Software Update tells me all my software is
up-to-date (and does NOT get errors checking installed activities).

[File 'Help-12.xo' gotten via
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Activities/G1G1Lite/10.1.3 is functionally
identical to (it only differs in a few comments from) the sugarlabs file
'help-12.xo'.]

mikus


p.s.  On the XO-1, the log output of Help-12 is not clean (attached).

New Dextrose 2 build: os438dx

2011-01-08 Thread Bernie Innocenti
This release of Dextrose 2 is intended for beta testing. Images for the
XO-1 and XO-1.5 can be downloaded here:

  http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Dextrose

I've not bothered uploading GNOME-enabled images, since Paraguay does
not use it. I could be convinced to generate them if it's needed by a
deployment for evaluation purposes only.

The major highlight in this release is a simple automated updater based
on yum which will hopefully enable us to deploy small updates
effortlessly. The final release should be ready by Feb 22, when schools
reopen in Paraguay, and if the updater works well we'll be able to fix
any remaining bugs post-release. This build also includes a refresh of
the new activity updater which supports the "OLPC microformat" protocol.
Please test both these features vigorously.

This release is missing several Sugar fixes that went into OLPC 10.1.3
over the last weeks. The queue of patches waiting to be merged in
Dextrose is quite long and new features have to take precedence so they
can get tested early on. We also have some small features that we hope
to merge in time for this release. Consult the todo list for more
information.

=== Changes ===
* Yum updater (alsroot, m_anish)

OLPC on Slashdot again

2011-01-08 Thread Carlos Nazareno
Congrats guys!

Kudos on the work on switching to ARM.

Comments are a little more sane and less FUD-y now on Slashdot:

http://hardware.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=11/01/08/0229206

This would be a good time for people here to hop on and comment on the
Slashdot thread to help educate/evangelize to the geek world more on
what OLPC's been doing (and stop FUD from resurfacing again).

FUD has really generated a lot of badwill for OLPC, this'd be a good
opportunity to help rectify that.

Have a great weekend!

-Naz

Re: 2g, 4g, 8g

2011-01-08 Thread John Watlington

The images are matched to the size of the SD card they are
to be installed onto.   (Well, actually they represent the smallest
card we've encountered in that size, as all SD card models
vary slightly in size.)

There has been a recurring thread about always installing
the 2GB image, and then resizing the filesystem on first
boot to fill the SD card ( http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10040 ).

You can always use a smaller image on a larger SD card,
but until you resize the filesystem, you will be wasting part
of the SD card.

Cheers,
wad
