Hi all:
Playing around with wedo, I've found that scratch is providing udev
rules for wedo and there are rules installed by olpc-utils. I'm
wondering if the rules provided by scratch should be used in place of or
in conjunction with the olpc provided rules in /etc/udev/rules.d. Here
are the contents of the 2 files for F11.
30-olpc-wedo.rules:
# Lego WeDo
SYSFS{idVendor}==0694, SYSFS{idProduct}==0003, GROUP=dialout,
MODE=0660
45-lego-wedo.rules:
# Lego WeDo
SYSFS{idVendor}==0694, SYSFS{idProduct}==0003, MODE=0666
Looks to me that what is provided by scratch should be part of
olpc-utils.
i believe scratch supplies rules because (at least at the time) it
could be installed on XO distributions that didn't include udev
rules at all.
This is my impresion too, last versions of scratch included these rules.
and since the 'olpc' user is a member of group 'dialout', i think these
rules are equivalent in practice. (except for use by 'other',
and i'm not sure how that would happen on an XO.) both rules
give the olpc user read/write access to the device.
are you seeing a conflict or other problem?

Do not tell others what to do! 2. CADT 3. I want others to drop all sugar code now! 4. People unsubscribed from the list because of me. (At least it was a good excuse I guess...) So congratulations, you have *way* better communication skills that I will ever have, your thread was fascinating to read. In the meantime I personally changed my preferences regarding this Sugar rewrite on Android, and now I see how stupid was I. The problem is that there is no need to rewrite stuff on Android when there is a much more easier, cross-platform thing exists and it is HTML5!!! (I have even tested chrome's speed on an XO-1 and it is totally acceptable.) When I skimmed over the activities in the Sugar Activity Store :) I realized that there are not too many of them. Most of the activities fall into the following 3 categories: 1. Small activities which can be easily rewritten. 2. Big activities which are ported to Sugar (etoys, scratch, write). 3. GCompris. A lot of them. 4. It can be that Uruguay and Peru created a lot of stuff I do not know about and I am stupid. Notably Ceibal Jam http://ceibaljam.org/?q=lista_descargas/jam some of them are already on Sugar's Activity Library. So I clearly cannot see the need for invisible perfect compatibility because 2-3 are already ports so they must be ported anyway, and 1. does not contain that much activities to warrant such amount of work in my opinion. But you know, I will not tell you what (not) to do... ;) What you do not seem to take into consideration are these: 1. Activities should move to a per activity storage model (like Android does) otherwise your compatibility layer will not work too well. 2. The Sugar HIG will result in pathetic touch controlled applications, even if the problems can be fixed by the excellent suggestions of Gary C Martin (here: http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2011-February/012556.html). Okay, actually I think that you totally understand 2. so I just do not get what your point with invisible compatibility is...

We want to know... - Which are the interesting and achievable robots/boards/sensors? Right now we have WeDo, NXT, ScratchBoard, Pico, GoGo -- all can be connected and need minor tweaking to work. - Given that most (all?) are usb-connected, what are their usb signatures -- for the udev rules? Gonzalo and I will populate http://wiki.laptop.org/go/11.2.0/Robotics_plan:-) Other robot/controlled/sensor devices that aren't easily supportable right now should be listed here http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Robotics or here http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Peripherals/Robots . cheers, We can work together in supporting Arduino for Scratch and TurtleArt. for Scratch (as listed on the robotics plan page) there is a good project that can be integrated. http://seaside.citilab.eu/scratch/arduino My 2 pesos ;). m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- Software Architect - OLPC - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel

Emiliano has Arduino + TA working, I think. Needs to be reworked as a plugin in the new TA plugins model (which seems excellent). Great, IIRC I think that also it's working only serially, i.e you cannot download code to the chip in order to have an autonomous system, this would be an excellent addition (maybe this was already integrated but i dunno) On the Uy/Ceibal side, I really want to know which Arduino they are using, and the exact sensors too. So we document that in wiki.l.o, buy the exact same kit here, and fold it into our test plans. for Scratch (as listed on the robotics plan page) there is a good project that can be integrated. http://seaside.citilab.eu/scratch/arduino Interesting! Somebody needs to look into that scratch stuff and figure out how to integrate it so that it Just Works. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- Software Architect - OLPC - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff ___ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
