Re: [Sugar-devel] Problem downloading a lease.sig file on an XO

2012-09-14 Thread Juan Cubillo
mime type has been correctly set to application/octet-stream and wget 
confirms the change. But Sugar is still downloading it as text/plain 
type and now adds a .txt extension at the end of the file making it 
lease.sig.txt . It seems my guide will now have to add the extra step of 
"log into Gnome" so that kids may download the file and unlock XOs. 
Nothing to worry about. Thanks for all the help!

Should be ok, as long as you're comfortable with the validity period
(ie: not too long!).


2. Why is the XO adding this .asc extension or how can it be avoided?

As Sam mentions, it is MIME-Types. Perhaps this helps: set the mime
types in your webserver so that .sig files are served as
application/octet-stream (something that I believe sugar will not mess
with).

You can check what mimetype is being set on a transfer with wget --
during download, it'll print a message about Length, that same line
shows the mime-type.

If that doesn't help, let us know.

cheers,

it may be there on XO-1, but it's never been there on 1.5 or 1.75.

In 11.3.0 there still was file /sys/power/wlan-enabled, whose content if 
set to '0' was supposed to disable wireless.


Has that function gone the way of the dodo ?

Jabber 2.1.5 on Debian6 and OS885

2012-09-14 Thread Franco Miceli
I've been trying to get ejabberd 2.1.5 to work with some XOs with OLPC
OS855 image.

I have followed the instructions on
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Installing_ejabberd/deb, configured the DN on the
XOs but they keep talking salut (olpc-netstatus).

Is Jabber still supported on the F14 builds (with ejabberd version 2.1.5)?

Has anyone encountered this problem?

Thanks in advance.

keeping the module from being loaded should do it.  i think that
adding a line to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf that says:
blacklist libertas
will do.

there's some chance that (i can't remember) that libertas will be loaded
from the initrd, in which case you'll also need to do a 
modprobe -r libertas_sdio
or
modprobe -r libertas_usb (on XO-1)
from somewhere like /etc/rc.local.  i say "like" rc.local, because
that file doesn't exist in recent builds, because modern linux
designers have little respect at all for the great, and useful,
traditions of the past.

Completely disable buildt-in WLAN

2012-09-14 Thread Kevin Gordon
Folks:

Is there a quick and dirty line I can maybe  just put into a boot-time file
that will totally disable the internal WLAN card on the XO 1, 1.5 and 1.75
every time I boot until I manually remove that line?  I dont want to
disable wireless networking, just the internal card.  I want to test a
series of USB 802.11N 5Ghz adapters and would like them to be the only
active network adapter.  I have a couple of versions of Atheros based
sticks  (with new firmware) from ThinkPenguin that are working very nicely
on both my F17 and Ubuntu boxes, but those machines dont have any built-in
wireless.   I thought before I'd try them on XO build 12.1.0 (on all
architectures),  that maybe someone would have a quick hack so that I can
avoid testing on a moving target :-)

Thanks.

13.1.0 development build 2 released

2012-09-14 Thread Daniel Drake
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/13.1.0
http://build.laptop.org/13.1.0/os2/

A new 13.1.0 development build is available. This one comes with the
first development release of Sugar itself ported to GTK3. That
probably means that it also comes with a fair number of bugs for you
to help us find and solve.

Bug/testing reports accepted and appreciated - either on the
appropriate trac, or on this list.

Known bugs which you don't need to file (yet):
- Any graphical weirdness on XO-1 (#12044). This might also creep over
to other platforms - lets test.
- Please also check for Sugar bugs in the 0.98 milestone before filing
at bugs.sugarlabs.org to avoid duplicates.

Fixed issues:
#6689 Need to be able to customise default language/keyboard
#10636 Don't delete ~/.i18n on first boot
#11669 olpc-update-query cannot tell the difference between a
corrupted lease and an unlimited one
#12042 plymouth shutdown splash not displayed
#12086 Include full dejavu fontsets instead of lgc subsets for 13.1.0
#12046 on 12.1.0 build 19, got "cap_set_file" error on glibc-common
install while doing: yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
#12047 libertas sdio often resets device during init
#11901 remove swipe gesture support from olpc-kbdshim
#12053 Update chrome X driver for xserver-1.13
#12054 Update dove X driver for xserver-1.13
#12075 Keyboard layouts not applied in 13.1.0 os1

Other changes/notes:
- Boot splash works again
- XO-1.5 and XO-1.75 now use the normal graphics drivers again, so
some things like screen rotation/low performance are fixed
- XO-1 kernel update fixes support for some webcams, but needs general
testing with all USB devices on XO-1 and XO-1.5.
- Touchscreen should work again for basic pointer emulation

Thanks
Daniel
