Re: [Server-devel] Installing pathagar in xsce master

2015-06-18 Thread Gonzalo Odiard
Hi Anish,
I was working with upstream (pathagar) solving a lot of little issues I
found,
and adding some optional features needed by Sora's deployment.
You can see my work here
https://github.com/PathagarBooks/pathagar/commits/master

Until now, I have tested install Pathagar with the role provided by xsce,
on a centos 7.1 in a vm, but couldn't finish due to this error  with
Postrgress.

In the field, we installed manually pathagar on a xsce 5.1 and is working
ok,
using a sqlite database.

If you can test, would be great.

 Hi Gonzalo,

 Thanks for working on this. I can help with testing (on x64-centos) .. did
 you make any progress on this?

 Pathagar has been problematic in the past, and Miguel has a workaround and
 it was good for a while, before (I guess) it broke again :/

 Best,
 Anish

I would need access 'lascahobas' server, because the new server is not
available yet.
Could you provide me the client information needed?
Sorry to bother, I didn't used openvpn before.

2. Sign on there and change your password. You can use this sign on at
any time to see if the sora server client connection is available at the
passthrough.
3. Then you will need to create a new user without administrative

generation of the keys for the sora server is triggered by accessing
https://50.17.210.12:943/ (without admin), and logging on with the
credentials you created when you set up the sora server user.
4. When you make this https:// access, the amazon openvpn application
will offer to let you download the openvpn client application.  I have
usually yum installed openvpn already. Hit refresh, and you will be given
a choice to download an unattended access key file.
5. Download the cient.ovpn file and change it so something similar
to the username you created. Place it in the /etc/openvpn/ directory of
sora server

 Sorry I missed your request when it came 3 days ago.

 This continues to puzzle me.  LTS is a stream of security updates, and
 you say the deployments do not apply them until the next year?

 And yet they want them?

 They want something they don't use?

 If a vulnerability is reported just after they make their image, the
 children are exposed to the vulnerability for the rest of the year.

 It seems more likely that the meaning of LTS is not understood.

 Fedora continues with security updates for a similar time period, but
 if the deployment uses our builder unchanged they won't get them.  I'm
 expecting that if a deployment needs LTS on Fedora they will assume
 the responsibility to apply the updates when they make a build.


All valid points. I sent a email to the deployment to ask for more
information.
I will report when have a reply.

Let make my comment clear. My proposal was not a criticize Fedora
or the Fedora community. Fedora has been very supportive and responsive.


  I do not think we should switch from Fedora to CentOS, because;
 
  1.  our installed base express interest in Fedora or Ubuntu,

 Daniel Drake, myself and others put in a lot of effort back in the
 F-14/15 days to get everything upstream into Fedora. I continue to
 maintain that and produce a Sugar on a Stick release with every Fedora
 release.

 In the last release Daniel and I was involved in the delta between
 Fedora and the OLPC release was very minimal. Basically kernel,
 firmware, and some minor changes to a couple of Sugar packages for XO
 HW and patches that weren't yet upstream.

  2.  there are missing desktop packages, which means we are taking on
  maintenance of those packages on CentOS,

 Having tried and failed to do this back when EL6 was new I believe
 this is a dead end. It turned out to be _WAY_ more effort than
 actually keeping Fedora up to date. The upstream RHEL releases are
 every 6 months but if you need a fix for a package in the core 2500
 odd packages and it's not easy you might be waiting a lot longer for a
 fix.


Ok. I didn't know that.

When I talked with deployments and they ask for Ubuntu,
and I ask why, what they really want is Long Time Support.

Then, I was thinking in CentOS as a LTS version of Fedora.


 In Fedora if you know the right people (like me) you can get a fix
 into update-testing in a day. Also there's a much much wider QA group
 across the packages we use and care about.

 I can go on and on about the details required for this but basically I
 suspect eyes have glazed over already.


This is true, and I know that.
But also is true, that keep the pace of changes in Fedora is not easy.
In fact, is not Fedora fault, mostly is Gtk ([1], [2], [3]) or libraries
(the last was vte [4],
but I can find more).

 3.  we would delay necessary work until the next release of CentOS, or
  if the work is too large we may never upgrade.

 I suspect it would be never.


Ok. But Let me explain my reasons.

Right now, the only stable images are based on F18.
We don't have images in a good shape for the deployments for F20,
we missed F21 (where Gtk theme change in a subtle way again,
and toggle toolbar buttons don't change the background color),
and we should start to work in F22. With the hands we have today,
I am sure we will not solve all the problems we already have before F23 is
released.

That is my concern. If we would had one dsd involved,
the conversation would be completely different,
But as Samuel said in a previous mail in this thread I have seen a fair
amount of interest,
both publicly and privately, for newer XO laptop builds.  But I don't think
the requesters
realize how much work it takes to make one.




  Let me explain that last point.
 
  There is a continuous flow of changes into Fedora.  These changes
  eventually flow into Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and thus into CentOS.
 
  The most cost effective way to handle this flow was for developers to
  test changes on our builds, every week.  This gaves us awareness of
  the change and kept us involved to resist changes that cause damage.
  We were there once.  It required a low but continuous engineering
  effort.

 It use to take around an hour to cut a release from Fedora/Sugar
 repos. Quite often the delta from a patch for a fix being created and
 a new OS was in the hours timeframe. It's the usual story of a little
 bit of effort regularly stops it from being a major issue.

 Kernel and olpc-os-builder aside I think you could probably produce a
 working image of Fedora 22 now. I think all the userspace bits are
 likely there and working due to my SoaS work.


I am sure we could produce a _almost_working_ image for Fedora 22.
The problem is make a _working_ image. Just to point a example,

Re: [Sugar-devel] Community XO software builds

2015-05-06 Thread Gonzalo Odiard
Hi Sam,


- Who actually is using/testing these images?

 I downloaded it (XO-1 and XO-4 versions).


- Why?

 To test if all is working in a new Fedora, and to try find a solution
for the Browse problems in the XO-1. Sadly wifi connectivity
is not working ok in the F20 images.



- Is there a reason you are not looking into using an official (OLPC
or deployment) build?

 For distribution, today is more stable the F18 version. But we need move
then we need solve the problems we find in newer versions.


- Have you engaged OLPC or another party to work on changes?

 Yes.


- What direction do you believe the builds should go?

 I think we should try make a build using CentOS. I don't know
if have all the packages we need, but the rate of change in Fedora
was difficult to follow when OLPC had a team dedicated and now
is almost impossible. The true is we didn't finished to solve
the problems we found in F20, and Fedora is working in F22.

Building XO builds by repacking existing work is relatively trivial.

 But the low-level kernel, driver, and OS work necessary to support XOs
 with newer operating systems (as well as newer XO batteries) is something I
 cannot do, and where we really need help.

+1

 Without guidance from OLPC or others, I could build thousands of XO-#
 laptop images.  But unless it looks like a significant number of
 deployments/children actually would benefit, there really is no point.

 I think the benefit is provide a environment where we can test, fill bugs,
etc.
But if there are no people with the knowledge and the time to work
in the low level stuff, will be difficult.

 At James' suggestion I looked a bit into a Fedora 22 beta build.  I have
 found the following problems so far getting the RPM dependencies worked out:

- olpc-library needs to depend on python-jinja2, not python-jinja.
The olpc-library RPM also was removed from Fedora, perhaps due to lack of
changes  abandonment.
- totem-mozplugin no longer exists and was intentionally removed.
Given Firefox supports various media codecs internally this might not be a
problem for it (apart for vmeta?); but I don't know what webkit-based
Browse uses for media players.
- xorg-x11-drv-keyboard and -mouse have been replaced by
xorg-x11-drv-libinput.  See

- 14.1.0 has custom F20 systemd binaries, but I am having trouble
finding information as to why.  If they have relevant changes they need to
be ported to F22 if not already present because using the F20 systemd
binaries breaks all sorts of library dependencies.

 Patches have been written for the first three that I could submit.

 We need to come up with a clear direction as to what volunteers and/or
 OLPC want  would actually use for updated XO builds.  I only have the time
 to focus on one set of images.


True. I am not sure what is best option here.
We still didn't solved all the issues in F20, but is already a old release.
I wonder if we can try make images based in CentOS.

Re: [Sugar-devel] XO-1 vs Sugar 0.104 performance, and swap to NAND Flash

2015-04-03 Thread Gonzalo Odiard
SHC8420412 = 332S



On Thu, Apr 2, 2015 at 12:54 AM, James Cameron qu...@laptop.org wrote:

 With Sugar 0.98 in 13.2.1, the XO-1 was so short of memory that adding
 swap gave an obvious benefit.  Thanks to those who have verified this
 for us.

 With Sugar 0.104 in 13.2.4, things seem much better on the XO-1,
 thanks to all the work done by Sugar Labs developers.  But I'm not
 finished testing [1].

 Meanwhile, there's an opportunity to add swap to jffs2 filesystem.

 The XO-1 NAND Flash is rated for 100,000 writes per cell.  The jffs2
 filesystem we use spreads the writes across all the cells.

 There's a risk that swapping to the NAND Flash will shorten the life
 of an XO-1.  It may become slower at reading and writing journal
 entries.  But they might already be so slow that this isn't a problem
 any more.

 What I need is some data from XO-1 that have been used a lot: how long
 does it take to reflash?  To test, surround a copy-nand command with
 timing markers, like this:

 ok t-sec( copy-nand u:\32014o0.img )t-sec

 The result will be on the line above the ok prompt when it is done,
 e.g. 403S, which is 403 seconds.  Send me the serial number, file
 name, and time in seconds.

 Notes:

 1.  free memory with no activities running is up around the 40 MB
 mark.  Browse running leaves 16 MB free.  Activity startup time is
 much reduced, and reduced still further when the pulsing icon
 animation is switched from 10 times a second to twice a second.  The
 animation is stealing resources!  On the other hand, the spinning
 cursor during startup or in Browse consumes no significant resources.

 http://dev.laptop.org/~quozl/z/1YdW4T.txt shows the change.

 Again, these images are not supported by OLPC.

 It would be useful to know who actually might actually deploy these

 relatively few people working on XO software at the moment, and we need
 more help in order to create a polished release.

 Bug reports about these images can be filed in dev.laptop.org with the
 commbuild keyword.

 Changes from the last build:

- Sugar 0.104 is now included.
- The language control panel problem appears to just be a first-boot
issue.  If broken, rebooting should allow the language control panel to
work.
- On XO-1, the Linux kernel has been downgraded to a Fedora 18/Linux
3.8 OLPC/XO kernel to solve the excess CPU usage.  But mesh networking is
not coming online, and collaboration on XO-1 may be more generally broken.

 Known major issues still outstanding:

- The XO-1.5 camera (OLPC #12858) and suspend (OLPC #12859) problems
still exist.
- On XO-4, programs may randomly crash (OLPC #12837).

 Hi all,



 I'm proud to announce the fifth version (0.5) of Sugarizer, a taste of
 Sugar for any device.



 http://sugarizer.org



 I've decided to put the focus on this version on three majors points:

- Responsive Design: to ensure that Sugarizer could work on any screen
size, from the smallest smartphone screen (320x480) to the bigger tablet
screen (2560x1600).
- Android support: I've done a huge work to ensure that Sugarizer and
activities work well on Android so I've fixed lot of issues related to
Android limitation. Of course due to diversity of the Android ecosystem,
some issues could still exist on Android versions lower than 4.2.
- Firefox OS support: Thanks to Mozilla foundation that help me on
that, Firefox and Firefox OS are now #1 platforms for Sugarizer. Sugarizer
has been tested successfully on Firefox browser and on several Firefox OS
devices (Keon, Peak, Flame).



 Finally, because it's very important for us that Sugar/Sugarizer could be
 accessible to every users, I've packaged and published Sugarizer on three
 major app stores:

- Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.olpc_france.sugarizer
- Amazon Store: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00NKK7PZA
- Firefox Market Place: https://marketplace.firefox.com/app/sugarizer/
 (soon)

 Of course, you could also install it by yourself using instructions on the
 Sugarizer website if you don't like stores.



 Other features of this version:

- Updated TurtleJS version, now save automatically context in the
Journal
- Updated Gears version, now use colors for gears
- New Etoys activity (beta)
- Favorites activities are now saved in user settings (so, could be
retrieved from a device to another)
- Favorites activities are now configurable at server settings
- German localization



 Do not hesitate to fork and contribute: I need you to Sugarize the world !

 All contributors are welcome.



Lionel.



 P.S.: Special thanks for their contribution on this version to: Jorge
 Alberto Gómez López (TurtleJS activity), Manuel Quiñones (Gears
 activity), Bert Freudenberg (Etoys activity), Christian Stroetmann (German
 localization), Jason Weathersby (Firefox OS support).

 Yes, at least one not upstream, dereference of NULL pointer in

 There may be more.

 Check my understanding; Write activity depends on abiword and
 libabiword RPMs, and for OLPC OS 13.2 we used our own RPMs.


Yes. Is just one spec file and create both rpms.


 I shall review whether to reuse RPMs or port patches to the Fedora 20
 RPMs.  Depending on user experience.


Thanks!

 Summary: partially solved with new kernel.

 The Chat activity was run with debug logging in Terminal:

 % SUGAR_LOGGER_LEVEL=debug sugar-launch org.laptop.Chat

 At the time the activity was shared, the log showed:

 1410842095.436535 DEBUG sugar3.presence.activity: _ShareCommand object at
 0x527dc8 (sugar3+presence+activity+_ShareCommand at 0x4f7c20): Join
 finished DBusException(dbus.String(u'Failed to connect to multicast

 Telepathy Salut was failing to setup the multicast group, because it
 was calling setsockopt with SO_REUSEPORT, because Fedora 20 header
 files define SO_REUSEPORT, but the OLPC kernel did not.

 (It is bad that the failure was not reported to the user or to the
 logs unless debug logging was turned on.  If someone cares, they can
 raise a bug.)

 Adding SO_REUSEPORT support to the kernel [2] solved for Salut over
 networks where DHCP is available; such as wired or wireless access
 points.  The new kernel is in the dropbox [3].  The previous change to
 avahi-daemon configuration is removed [4].

 A different problem occurs with Salut over link local addresses; IBSS
 ad-hoc wireless.  The buddy icons are missing.

Re: Testing 40002au4.zd image on XO-4

2014-09-14 Thread Gonzalo Odiard

  1. Piano and Write not working.

 By Piano perhaps you mean MusicKeyboard activity.  Yes, I think this
 will be fixed in a new activity, I heard something about it privately.
 I already removed it from the OLPC build until it gets fixed.  It
 isn't in 41001o4.

 The Write activity did not work for me.  I removed it from the OLPC
 build until it gets fixed.  It isn't in 41001o4.  The activity log
 (see the Log activity) only shows a segmentation fault (error 11) and
 no detail.  I've not yet figured out what the problem is, but if
 somebody else figures it out first, great.  I don't really know where
 to look.


I am working on these...

A new MusicKeyboard activity will be released soon,
and already sent a patch to MusicPainter activity maintainer.

About Write, I am looking at the backtraces.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Sugar 0.100 features on Sugar 0.102 build

2014-09-02 Thread Gonzalo Odiard


 Gonzalo's question seems to suggest that the dependency on
 sugar-cp-background should be declared by the sugar package spec file.
 I disagree.  I think it should be a decision by deployment team.



Yes. That is the reason I asked.

 This take it or leave it attitude that is displayed here is the reason
 myself and Dextrose(Activity Central) came into being part of the ecosystem
 in the first place, for the needs of the deployment. We listened to what
 the deployment wanted to do and worked towards that goal.

 I guess that this is just another way to ensure further work is only done

Jerry, Please stop with this tone.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Sugar 0.100 features on Sugar 0.102 build

2014-09-02 Thread Gonzalo Odiard
Just a few points:

* If anybody want install all the control-panel sections, can install
sugar-cp-all.
* You can install all sugar with yum install @sugar-desktop sugar-runner
[1]

If there are some dependency not working, is a bug, and we can try to solve
it.
As a example, I filled this ticket [2] and pbrobinson fixed the problem
really fast.

About mixing sugar-datastore / sugar-toolkit-gtk3 / sugar,
was discussed recently, but we didn't find any good reason to do it.
Have sense keep at least the toolkit separated from sugar, because that is
the interface
we provide to the activities. The code in Sugar (jarabe) is private,
and we can change it without fear of break activities.

Is true that is difficult make Sugar + activities work on other
distributions,
but that is (in general) due to external dependencies (like you said,
Abiword in the case of Write).
In general pure python activities, will not have problems.

Some of the problems making difficult work on other distributions
are related to the work needed to make work the XO touch.
At the time, the support of touch in Linux in general, and in Gtk in
particular,
was not ready, and OLPC invested a lot of work to do it usable.
That patches went upstream, but anybody who works on open source projects
know,
takes a time until that changes are distributed.

I think would be great have good packages on debian and derivatives,
but don't know who can do it.

 Hi Jerry,

 As I've not had the pleasure of working with you directly and I have never
 been an OLPC associate, whatever that is, and, to my knowledge, there is no
 such thing as a Sugar Labs associate, therefore I don't feel offended by
 your (perceived) aggressive tone, so I hope it was not directed at me.

 Let me assert something which is often forgotten here:

 Deployments != Administrators

 For me, Deployments = Users.

 Therefore, the easier it is for users to install and/or use the Sugar
 Platform, the better.

 You say it is such a big change for the better that there exist a bunch of
 sugar-* packages.

 I ask:

 - Is the Sugar Datastore at all usefull without sugar?
 - Does any other software use the control panel packages?
 - Is there perhaps an alternative implementation of the aforementinoed
 mentioned packages that justifies splitting the platform?
 - Is it possible, practical, or even useful, to upgrade one component
 without the others?

 Now, as a deployment volunteer, let me tell you (you probably know this)
 that trying to work with Sugar on any GNU distribution other than fedora is
 a nightmare, as the platform does not declare it's dependencies properly,
 and does not communicate upstream effectively, so, for instance, Write
 never works, speech never works, and half the activities don't work (maybe
 I'm exaggerating out of frustration).

 I have been a strong proponent of extirpating Sugar from the OLPC/fedora
 microcosmos, but frankly, adding complexity is not helping.

 Now, from the technical point of view, perhaps a simple sugar-platform
 package that pulls ALL of Sugar and glucose and dependencies would not be
 so hard to do, and then the deployment-administrator-supporters can just
 omit this package and manually pick and chop sugar as they see fit (or are
 requested to do).

 I feel sad that to this day and age, SugarLabs has not proven to be much
 more than an appendix of OLPC, even to hard working members of the
 community such as yourself.

 Sebastian

   So much for being volunteer deployment friendly, now you have to fix

Ok, I will look at that.

  pbrobinson to push it upstream) and needed remove libwebkit2gtk from
  the Requires on sugar-toolkit-gtk3

 Thanks.  The OLPC RPM dropbox is available now on dev.laptop.org.
 Should we use that or use yours in personal directory?  To use the
 dropbox, place them in public_rpms/{f18,f20} (noarch) or
 {f18,f20}-{xo1,xo1.5,xo1.75,xo4} (i686 and armv7hl).


Ok, I need check how will work with the AU images, where we use
patched rpms. I will try to make it work with the standard (dropbox)
if possible.


   What effect did the removal of Gnome [2] have on the available
   disk space on XO-1?  It seemed negligible when I tried it.
 
  I tried to build a XO-1 image with gnome,and just at start Sugar
  show a message of Journal full. Removing gnome solved the problem,
  but I found dconf was not installed, then the configuration were not
  saved. Also gstreamer-python was needed by some activities.

 Thanks.

 For 13.2.0 and 13.2.1 we had been building for XO-1 with a smaller
 activity set, G1G1Lite, and your Sugarlabs/0.102 set is same on all
 laptop models, so somewhat larger.

 The free disk space on your build may be even less than 13.2.1; 729MB
 vs 723MB for the .img file.

 You might solve this with a 0.102Lite, but that increases the activity
 list maintenance load unless you use Wiki templates.


True. I preferred start with the same group of activities and remove Gnome.
In general deployments do not include Gnome in the XO1
(at least, Uy and Py don't do it)
and request for activities as TuxPaint and TuxMath. I am not a fan of them,
but the idea is make something useful.


   Can you also publish the 41001SL0.zd{,.md5} files for use with
   external SD card?  If not, you might remove [sd_card_image] from

  Ahh, that is the use of these files :)
  Uploading

 Thanks, I see them uploading.


Uploaded now. There are info about how to install them, right?



 I've also begun reproducing the build locally.

 For your interest, hacked [2] kspost.60.nochroot.activities.py and scp

 James,

 Just a minor point: Address the harvest-client RPM issue for OLPC
 builds, if you can. I know AU needs it, but I don't think the others
 will. Uninstalling harvest-client.rpm on a machine or three is ok, but
 on several will become cumbersome.

 It is encouraging to see effort streams coming together.

  dropbox, place them in public_rpms/{f18,f20} (noarch) or
  {f18,f20}-{xo1,xo1.5,xo1.75,xo4} (i686 and armv7hl).
 
 
  Ok, I need check how will work with the AU images, where we use
  patched rpms. I will try to make it work with the standard (dropbox)
  if possible.
 
 
What effect did the removal of Gnome [2] have on the available
disk space on XO-1?  It seemed negligible when I tried it.
  
   I tried to build a XO-1 image with gnome,and just at start Sugar
   show a message of Journal full. Removing gnome solved the problem,
   but I found dconf was not installed, then the configuration were not
   saved. Also gstreamer-python was needed by some activities.
 
  Thanks.
 
  For 13.2.0 and 13.2.1 we had been building for XO-1 with a smaller
  activity set, G1G1Lite, and your Sugarlabs/0.102 set is same on all
  laptop models, so somewhat larger.
 
  The free disk space on your build may be even less than 13.2.1; 729MB
  vs 723MB for the .img file.
 
  You might solve this with a 0.102Lite, but that increases the activity
  list maintenance load unless you use Wiki templates.
 
 
  True. I preferred start with the same group of activities and remove
 Gnome.
  In general deployments do not include Gnome in the XO1
  (at least, Uy and Py don't do it)
  and request for activities as TuxPaint and TuxMath. I am not a fan of
 them,
  but the idea is make something useful.
 
 
Can you also publish the 41001SL0.zd{,.md5} files for use with
external SD card?  If not, you might remove [sd_card_image] from
your .ini file and save some time.
  
   Ahh, that is the use of these files :)
   Uploading
 
  Thanks, I see them uploading.
 
 
  Uploaded now. There are info about how to install them, right?
 
 
 
  I've also begun reproducing the build locally.
 
  For your interest, hacked [2] kspost.60.nochroot.activities.py and scp
  words-21 and turtleblocks-207 from sunjammer because
  download.sugarlabs.org 302 redirects to an .au mirror which is out of

Subject: Testing images with SUgar 0.102
To: Sugar-dev Devel sugar-de...@lists.sugarlabs.org, iaep 
i...@lists.sugarlabs.org


We have new images to test Sugar 0.102 in any XO model.
You can download them here [1]
These images are clean Sugar images, without any customization.

Even when Sugar 0.102 is finished, we appreciate the report of errors.

What is new?

The release notes [2] describe the changes in Sugar, in addition,
the following activities were updated:

   - Abacus 54 - 56
   - Calculate 41.2 - 42
   - Chart 10 - 11
   - Chat 80 - 81
   - FractionBounce 22
   - Log 35 - 36
   - Measure 49 - 51
   - Memorize 47 - 48
   - Physics 19 - 21
   - Scratch 24 - 25
   - TurtleBlocks 202.1 - 207

and the following activities were added:

   - Finance 11
   - Words 21
   - MusicPainter 12

Several performance issues were solved, if you use XO-1, would be
great if you can help us to identify remaining issues, to solve them on
the next Sugar cycle.

Thanks James.


 Could you please include devel@lists.laptop.org in your release
 announcements?


Good point. Forwarded.


 Are there any patches in the SL102 branch [1] that you'd like to push
 upstream?  I've looked at them.


I would love to see official OLPC images with Sugr 0.102,
in that case you can use everything you want :)

The changes are mostly related with the change in Sugar from GConf to
GSettings,
added dconf as a dependency (we need add it to sugar rpm as Requires)
and a few configs.

The sugar rpms are the Fedora 20 rpms rebuilded in F18.
I just needed do a single change in the sugar rpm (I am working with
pbrobinson to push it upstream)
and needed remove libwebkit2gtk from the Requires on sugar-toolkit-gtk3

 Then install the Daniel launcher here [1][2].

 Is there a way to do that with olpc-os-builder ? Do I need to use the

 Any advice is welcome.

 Sorry to be late in replying to this thread but it's been a week of travel.

 So I've had a number of people ping me about bringing support for the
 XO-* devices into Fedora as a supported platform. I think it's
 reasonably achievable but will likely need some assistance. I think
 it's probably worth starting a separate thread but I'll put some quick
 points here, if people generally think it's worthwhile I'll kick off a

Certainly if there are people available to work in update the kernel to

would had a big impact in our future.

Re: XO 1.75 Slow to turn off

 @Gonzalo, minor note, microSD and eMMC do not ever show bad blocks,
 they are managed by the controller inside the device, so red blocks
 are never shown.  Red blocks are XO-1 only.

 First, thanks for doing this work.


 Thanks for helping out.


   I would like to take a step back and understand a bit better where we
 want to go with this. Some random thoughts and questions.

 * To really understand how much work is left I think we need some good
 testing, especially on the hardware related bits. I expect there will be
 lots of small things to fix, but it would be good to understand as early as
 possible if there are roadblocks. I'm a bad tester and I've never used the
 XO much, so I'm often not sure what is a regression and what is not... thus
 helping with this would be particularly appreciated.


 This is a issue. If we have a Sugar with similar functionalities
  (settings and activities installed) we can request help from deployments
 and volunteers.


 Are you thinking to deployment specific settings and activities here? Or
 some kind of subset/reference that is good enough for all the interested
 deployments?


I think we should do a generic version. We can start with the activities
used by example in AU,
but add more based on deployment requests. In the xo-1 models space is a
issue,
but not so much in the others, and the benefit is have more testing.



  * Are interested deployments using olpc-update? If I'm not mistake AU is
 not.


 We are not using it. I am pretty sure Nicaragua use it.


 Is AU using yum?


Yes, we use a deamon calling yum with a particular configuration.
Recently I am testing dnf in F20, and I am impressed. If there are not
downsides,
could be nice use it.

log from xo-1.5

Looks like eth0 is not initialized and all stop there.
Probably you already know that, but xo-1 and xo-1.5 have a 8686 wireless
card, different to the 8787 in the xo-4

 problem is that I'm running the x86 build slave inside docker.io,
 which doesn't like xpart. So I patched olpc-os-builder to manually losetup
 the partitions, but it's sort of tricky to get right. It will work

 Hello,

 things are looking good so far, we already have all the models booting
 into sugar 0.101 with wif apparentlyi working.


First, thanks for doing this work.



 I would like to take a step back and understand a bit better where we want
 to go with this. Some random thoughts and questions.

 * To really understand how much work is left I think we need some good
 testing, especially on the hardware related bits. I expect there will be
 lots of small things to fix, but it would be good to understand as early as
 possible if there are roadblocks. I'm a bad tester and I've never used the
 XO much, so I'm often not sure what is a regression and what is not... thus
 helping with this would be particularly appreciated.


This is a issue. If we have a Sugar with similar functionalities  (settings
and activities installed) we can request help from deployments and
volunteers.


 * Which deployments are planning to ship 0.102 soon and hence are
 interested in this work? I know of AU. Maybe Uruguay?


AU sure, if w don't have serious regressions. We need ask to Uruguay. Other
deployments usually update slowly.


 * Do we need to support all the XO models?


In a ideal world, that would make our life easier, we can define a eond of
line to our support of F18.


 * Should we contribute the olpc-os-builder changes back to OLPC or fork
 it? I don't know if OLPC will do any active development on the linux side
 of things, if not maybe better to turn this into a sugarlabs thing.


Probably James would know better respect of this issue. The changes we did
for AU are in a fork [1], but are not low level stuff,
just configurations.


 * Are interested deployments using olpc-update? If I'm not mistake AU is
 not.


We are not using it. I am pretty sure Nicaragua use it.


 * Do we care about maintaining the GNOME dual boot? I'm afraid we do,
 but I want to make sure.


Yes. Is a important feature for the deployments. In the end deployments
don't ask for Gnome, but for a standard desktop,
for some cases. If Gnome don't work without acceleration in F20, XFCE, mate
or similar can work.



 * As I mentioned in some other thread I'm interested in setting up
 automated  builds from sugar master. I have some vague plan of what it
 would look like and wrote bits of it. The basic idea is that you would push
 changes to github and get images automatically built. I think this is good
 for upstream testing but the same infrastructure could be used by
 deployments. Are people interested in using this?


I am not sure if do a complete build for every sugar commit have sense,
maybe yes do weekly builds, or automatic rpms.
The deployments usually make their own customizations, and will deploy one
or two images in a year.

 Hi,

 to  be honest I haven't even evaluated alternative distributions because I

 Why is all this work being put into Fedora 20?  The maintenance window
 is limited and as of the next release they won't even support non-KMS
 drivers by default.  Wouldn't make sense to look into a distribution
 that provides and LTS release?  Resources already seem to be limited
 so having to chase after Fedora every 6 months to a year seems like a
 waste of resources.  The GTK3 and GNOME teams obviously have their
 eyes on a different class of hardware than what is being used by
 deployments.

 If not, you have reproduced http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/12750 and you

 Thanks for the slap on the wrist, I'll tune up Browse.

 And I think I will move its repo to github.  Part of leaving Browse
 abandoned in gitorius is because I don't get well with its site.

 I've been pushing patches I receive by email or attached to bugs, but
 I did not pay attention to gitorius pull requests.

 With advice from Chris Ball and #postgresql, it proved possible to use

 dump the permission, session, and session_attribute tables.

 However, I have not loaded these dumps into the production

 roughly 5500 accounts, with no easy way to validate.

 Thanks to the people who have re-registered.  For those that had

Great work.
I am trying to use the thin client, but I only see the activities from the
version 0.2
(and the content of the journal from the last time)
Should I reset/clean something to see the new activities?

 Hi all,



 I'm proud to announce the third version of Sugarizer, a taste of Sugar for
 any device.



 http://sugarizer.org



 To remind you, Sugarizer reproduce main features of Sugar in
 HTML5/JavaScript. Sugarizer also expose these features to allow running in
 a browser Sugar Web activities wrote for Sugar 0.100.



 New in this version:

- Full support of filtering in home view, list view and journal,
- Localization: English, French and Spanish - thank to Alan,
- Full buddy menu,
- Settings dialog for name, buddy color and language,
- 4 new activities:
   - Maze from Manuel Quiñones: a port of the famous Sugar Maze game,
   - Gridpaint from Brian Silverman: a nice painting too with triangle,
   - FoodChain: a game to learn name of animals (French, English),
   - Abecedarium; a full Abecedarium (image, text, sound) with more
   than 2000 words in French, English and Spanish.
- Better touch support and better compatibility with Firefox, Safari
and IE,
- Now available as Thin Client (Web), Client (Android or PC) and
Server (for School server).



 Hope that you'll enjoy it and it motivate you to adapt or create new Sugar
 Web Activities that will work both on Sugar and on Sugarizer.

 The power of JavaScript is the very rich ecosystem of frameworks that you
 could now use to port/rewrite Sugar activities. Here some sample:

- Physics: http://buildnewgames.com/physics-engines-comparison/
- Write: http://www.webodf.org/
- Calculate: http://www.graphr.org/
- Labyrinth: http://philogb.github.io/jit/
- Arcade Games: http://craftyjs.com/ or http://html5quintus.com
- Scratch: http://waterbearlang.com/javascript.html
- TurtleArt: ask Walter :-)
- Implode: ask Joe !



 Go ahead to Sugarize the world with HTML5/JavaScript technologies !


 Best regards from France.


 Lionel.

Both are missing dependencies.
In the case of Memorize, check if you have installed the rpms

In the case of Infoslicer, you can install python python-cjson or try a
newer version of Infoslicer,

Re: XO Problems (4 Problems)

2013-11-25 Thread Gonzalo Odiard
Our latest builds (Walter and me pointed to the same) are based on Fedora
18,
as 13.2.0, and only have the sugar 0.100 rpms, and a few other updates from
dsd.
Sadly, we don't have resources to work in the low level stuff,
then we didn't moved to newer Fedora releases.

 Hi everyone,

 I am writing to show you what I was developing those last days, in order to
 make simpler the developing of Sugar Activities, this module, micro library
 or whatever you want to call it, makes much more easier the processes that
 every activity does, for example create ToolButtons, add them to a Toolbar
 or implement collaboration which is difficult for any starter developer.
 The main idea is include SimpleAcivity in our toolkit, but thinking about
 all the review processes it takes, you can add it to your activity for now
 or you can take a look about how it works in the Demo activity I did [1],
 where you can see how easy is to implement sharing or create the toolbar.

 * SimpleActivity classes *

 simpleactivity.SimpleActivity:
 The activities which doesn't want to implement collaboration, can derive
 from this class (instead of sugar3.activity.activity.Activity), this class
 automatically adds the toolbar to the activity with his
 ActivityToolbarButton and it makes easier some processes related to the
 design, e.g. add buttons, separators, or whatever to the toolbar in only
 one line and also other things related to the operation for example any
 number, string, dictionary or list that is saved into the self.data
 variable will be auto kept in the journal, and when the instance runs
 again, in self.data will be what you leaved when the activity was closed.
 Among these there are many other simple features, that after all, they do
 everything much easier.

 simpleactivity.SharedActivity (derives from SimpleActivity, you can use all
 its methods): :
 From this class should derive every activity which needs to be shared, the
 process is greatly simplified cause the communication is done automatically
 and the system works with something like an event manager, so we only
 need to worry about register our events in a python dict, where the keys
 are the names of the events and the values are the functions to call when
 we receive an event, and when we want to emit an event with the values we
 need or not, all we have to do is to call send_event(event_name, data)...
 And that's all, we don't have to worry about telepathy, dbus or anything
 like that, SimpleActivity does everything for you :)
 Also it includes an option to send files in a very easy way, using the
 method send_file(file_path, data) that notifies every peer that a file is
 available, and it can be downloaded just calling the download_file method,
 and then SharedActivity will start emiting signals with information related
 to the download progress, etc.
 The process of downloading is done using another independent tube, then
 nothing gets blocked while the file is sent/downloaded, we can continue
 sending events while, and everything will continue working.

 Notes:
 - Both classes derives from the natives classes of sugar, so we can
 continue using every method of sugar.activity.activity.Activity or
 whatever, without any problem.
 - Whole SimpleActivity (module) is only one .py file, then we can put it
 into our activity directory easily as we do with HelpButton or
 FontComboBox, even if it isn't in sugar toolkit.
 - It only supports GTK3, I think it is not necessary to make it compatible
 with GTK2, because nowadays the new activities should be did in GTK3.
 - I advice everyone who is interested to take a look of the documentation
 that you can found in the docstrings in the file for now (I will create a
 cleaner documentation with sphinx), to learn about all you can do with
 SimpleActivity.

 Also I started a Feature wiki page [2], but is not ready yet. Could anyone
 help me with that?
 I need some documentation experts ;)

 I hope you find it useful, as I always say, I love developing for Sugar,
 because it causes a great feeling to know that the lines of code I wrote
 will be used directly or indirectly by millions of children around the
 world.

 Dear Community,

 In spite of being a part of this community since July 2007, and trying
 to keep up with all that is OLPC and Sugar, these interviews threw me
 off a bit.

 The videos are uploading as I write this. They'll be available at
 https://www.youtube.com/user/olpcsf/videos soon. Bill Stelzer, who
 usually interviews and runs the camera asks people a handful of
 questions. So, here's a little community exercise. Why not ask you all
 the same?

 1) What brought you into the OLPC and/or Sugar project(s)?

I started developing activities because I liked the project and the mission.
Later was invited to help start a deployment in my country,
and after that was contracted by OLPC to continue developing activities
and Sugar.

 2) What keeps you going in the OLPC and/or Sugar project(s)?

The team is incredible. Every day I learn something,
and we have new challenges.

 3) What are the challenges you face in the OLPC and/or Sugar project(s)?

* Miss-communication between volunteers.
* Lack of founding.
* New technological landscape (tablets/android)

 4) What would you change/do differently so OLPC and/or Sugar
 project(s) could do better?

I think we need do a strategic analysis of our position, and improve
the development of the areas needed by teachers and schools.
If OLPC is not a option to distribute Sugar, we could need partner
with hardware providers.

 I think Sugar would do very well a change in appearance and in some cases
 functionality. I say it should be graphically attractive to users and some
 operational details should be improved.

 Is that there are a theoretical foundation behind the Sugar GUI , however I
 think it should be revised to give more importance to aesthetics.

 From the point of view of functionality , I think there are small graphical
 details that make it look that works very slow sugar such as how options are
 displayed implementation of activities in the home view .
 I think it should be changes to the user experience more enjoyable in this
 regard.

 To be more clear: I mean that the user has a cute sight and efficient
 execution.

 Other complexing functionalities require more work and knowledge, such as in
 the case of the shared network. It would be good to improve the code so that
 the developer only activities need to call two or three sugar api functions
 to get the functionality of the network share from my point of view is one
 of the best things that has sugar , but unfortunately it complicated and
 confusing when using this feature in applications.


 Disculpen que me entrometa en esta charla, pero como están tratando el tema
 de diseño, creo que es un buen momento para reiterar algunas propuestas que
 he hecho en varias oportunidades.

 Pienso que a Sugar le haría muy bien un cambio de apariencia y en algunos
 casos de funcionalidad. Yo digo que gráficamente debiera ser más atractiva
 para los usuarios y algunos detalles de funcionamiento debieran ser
 mejorados.

 Se que hay toda una fundamentación teórica detrás de la interfaz gráfica de
 sugar, sin embargo pienso que debe ser revisada, para darle más importancia
 a la estética.

 Desde el punto de vista de la funcionalidad, creo que hay pequeños detalles
 gráficos que hacen que parezca que sugar funciona muy lento como por ejemplo
 la forma en que se despliegan las opciones de ejecución de las actividades
 en la vista hogar.
 Pienso que debieran hacerse cambios para que la experiencia del usuario sea
 más agradable en este sentido.

 Para ser más claro: me refiero a que el usuario tenga un sistema lindo a la
 vista y eficiente en la ejecución.

 Otras funcionalidades más complejas requieren más trabajo y conocimiento,
 como en el caso de la red compartida. Sería bueno mejorar ese código para
 que el desarrollador de actividades solo necesite llamar a dos o tres
 funciones del api de sugar para obtener la funcionalidad de la red
 compartida que desde mi punto de vista es una de las mejores cosas que tiene
 sugar, pero lamentablemente es complicado y confuso a la hora de utilizar
 esta característica en las aplicaciones.
