Re: [Sugar-devel] 883 on XO1

The method used was to take a checksum of each of 128 parts of the file,
compare the checksums, and then transmit only the corrupted part.

This recovery method is only applicable if the file size matches, but the
checksum does not.

I've written this up at http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Download#Wrong_Data

Ouch,

David, I will happily keep you supplied with pre-tested OLPC image
downloads (by snail-mail CD-ROM) in exchange for some help recruiting
localizers for the Oceanic languages.  Consider it a standing offer.

I add another column to my spreadsheet (1) called 'Last of:' that have the 
datewhen was uploaded the last version..
The numbers speak for themselves..
The average of days that the activities had is: 421,2 days!!!
That means that some activities have 1 year of inactivity (inactivity = not new 
version)
I attach a graphic with the age of each group of activities:
1 month or less:  23between 1 and 2:26between 2 and 3:29between 3 
and 6:47between 6 and 12:  68moore than 1 year: 213

XULRunner 1.9 On OLPC Horizontal Scroll Bar Issue

2012-01-06 Thread anthony 

Hello there;

I encountered an issue when using the XULRunner 1.9.1.9, the default 
version of XULRunner on the OLPC computers. No horizontal scroll bar 
appears when text extends beyond the width of the screen.
I installed XULRunner 8.0 and called my XULRunner application from this 
newer version. The horizontal scroll bar appears.


i) Does this imply that there is a bug in XULRunner 1.9.1.9, or is 
there a setting that can be used to make the horizontal scrollbar 
appear?


ii)If it's a bug, is there a workaround? Or are there plans to update 
the default version of XULRunner on the OLPC computers? (Changing font 
size has been explored, and will probably not solve all the issues 
involved.)

rdiff or rsync is what I would use.  But all such tools require some
effort to explain, or in David's case, to download.

Re: [Sugar-devel] 883 on XO1

2012-01-06 Thread Alec Muffett 
At the risk of sounding perverse you could do block-level repair on this by 
having someone put the same file up for Bittorrent somewhere, and David could 
start the torrent, pause his "repeat" download, install a copy of 
previously-downloaded file, restart his Bittorrent client and have it 
download/repair the corrupted blocks for fairly small bandwidth consumption.

Lacking that has anyone got an equivalent hash-the-blocks-based binary diff 
tool, or does one just need to be written?

It would be good to record the date fo last release.  There could be
translations committed to git but not in the release if it was a long
time ago.  This could be checked against the release date and the git
log activity since.
