Were you able to register properly w/ XS and were you able to connect to
ejabberd?
The best way to check is to run $ olpc-netstatus from the terminal
You should see gabble listed and not salut
If you only see salut you are not connected to ejabberd

The Nepal deployment team has spent much of the last two weeks testing
767 for a deployment tomorrow. Presently our two pilot schools all use
build 703.
On the whole, I am quite happy w/ 767 esp. the GUI changes.
my comments may be redundant because I fail to keep up w/ developments

I was working w/ Trinarayan today on running flash activities on the XO

are using firefox 3 but would like to use Browse instead.
1. Display flash by default. A lot of existing educational resource use

Due to the patented technologies that are in flash we cant ship adobe's flash
(that's why we have gnash) unless you have an agreement from adobe you likely
cant ship flash either.
I read through the license a couple months ago and if I can recall
correctly, an organization can distribute
Flex is a framework for developing flash widgets that can do AJAXy stuff
AFAIK, flex still relies on the flash player. I believe that AIR is also

Don't you have a local moodle install in the office? that might help in

We need to get working quickly on developing course materials. Our two

and activity descriptions in MS Word. Not quite ideal :)
I want to get them using Moodle asap. It will improve
sorry been out of contact on this issue and haven't responded earlier.
The monsoon started last week so there is a lot less dust at Bashuki
school. The touchpad problem has reduced to a point that about 3 out of
27 kids have touchpad problems at one time, down from 50%
I still need to test this
thanks, will try this out
