13.2 query

2013-08-19 Thread Chris Leonard
Can anyone change languages with the Sugar Control panel on an XO (xo-1 or
xo-4) and 13,2 build 13?

I cannot scroll down with down arrow, mouse (or touchscreen on xo04) and so
cannot select any lower in the alphabet than some Arabic variations.

Yes.

The problem you describe only happens the first time the menu is
drawn, the subsequent times are unaffected.

You can tell it is going to be a problem if you can't see the
down-arrow at the bottom of the menu.

You can also use the arrow keys to scroll without drawing the menu.

Has it been fixed upstream yet?

Re: [Server-devel] It's An Etoys Project! [LIVE, Monday 12 Noon NYC Time]

2013-08-19 Thread Adam Holt
*Live in 40min:* thanks all for bringing serious questions to Rita  Bert
Freudenberg's kids-are-my-career experience !

 Who can remember the early years of OLPC, when Etoys was considered as the
 kids' operating system for all XO laptops, prior to Sugar?  Come learn
 the true story behind this powerful ongoing adventure, that arose from Alan
 Kay's infamous 1972 Dynabook demo, and whose legacy continues as Etoys
 today turns kids into visual programmers fast --- in Haiti, Philippines,
 Zambia, Uruguay, and far beyond.  What have WE learned on this
 extraordinary chautauqua, and consequently what's the future of Etoys?

 Please come meet the husband and wife dream team so instrumental in making
 this happen, Rita  Bert Freudenberg, bringing them your questions to our
 live video Hangout On Air, Monday August 19, at Noon EDT/NYC Time: (1600UTC)

 Live questions can help us all seize the day: please Tweet using the
 hashtag #unleashkids --- or email questions privately to the all-volunteer
 team making this possible: cont...@unleashkids.org.

 Finally, THANKS to the silent humanitarian soldiers bringing this untold
 grassroots learning transformation increasingly out into the open, *unleashing
 one kid at a time,* in the most unforeseen circumstances.  E.G. in the
 immediate aftermath of Haiti's 2010 earthquake, where Bill Stelzer worked
 with kids unlocking their XOs and Etoys, needing authentic digital
 expression as one very spiritual way out of the misery.  Thanks all for
 joining this trenchant conversation, and mark your calendars for the Alan
 Kay Demo(cracies) of 2022 and 2072, humbly prep'ing our species for the
 next earthquakes-in-learning where you can:

If children are to keep alive their inborn sense of wonder, they need
 the
companionship of at least one adult who can share it, rediscovering with
them the joy, excitement, and mystery of the world we live in. Rachel
 Carson
