xulrunner bug with patch - stuck in bugzilla?
by Martin Langhoff 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

We have a UI regression due to xulrunner changes. Tomeu has done the hard work of finding the right patch to backport, but we need some help on the Fedora side :-) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=524377 This affects us here - http://dev.sugarlabs.org/ticket/851 For example - dev.sugarlabs.org and dev.laptop.org are very confusing to use without the missing spinner... cheers, m -- martin.langhoff(a)gmail.com martin(a)laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff

Weekly Fedora Sugar Meetings
by Sebastian Dziallas 30 Dec '09

30 Dec '09

Hi all, you've probably heard the rumor, that SoaS v3 will only ship Fedora packages. Now let me tell you this: It's true. What this means is that we can use a lot of help with packaging all kinds of crazy-awesome activities and other stuff for Fedora - which will get a Sugar environment with even more and better apps on its turn. So. Let's get this party started. I'm suggesting weekly meetings starting this Thursday, at 1500 UTC, 1000 EST [1]. Who else is in for this? Drop a note here! For those who're interested in getting started with contributing to Sugar, for example by packaging activities, there will be a Fedora Classroom session on January 6 (1500 UTC) in IRC & Gobby [2]. --Sebastian [1] http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=12&day=31&year=2… [2] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Classroom

packaging accessibility tools
by Tomeu Vizoso 29 Dec '09

29 Dec '09

Hi, Uruguay is working on adding some accessibility features to Sugar and they are using some stuff that, though old, is not properly packaged in any distro I know of: http://slappy.cs.uiuc.edu/fall98/Linux/download.html Do we have any volunteers to tackle packaging in their distro of choice? This seems like a task with specially high karma points. Thanks, Tomeu -- «Sugar Labs is anyone who participates in improving and using Sugar.

powerd or ohm?
by Tomeu Vizoso 22 Dec '09

22 Dec '09

Hi, I think f11 for the XO 1.5 uses ohmd but from a recent message from Paul I think the images for the XO-1 are configured to use powerd or at least doesn't start ohmd by default. Steve, is there any plan on this? Thanks, Tomeu -- «Sugar Labs is anyone who participates in improving and using Sugar. What Sugar Labs does is determined by the participants.» - David Farning

XO-1.5 video rendering not always smooth
by Mikus Grinbergs 20 Dec '09

20 Dec '09

In the new snow-1.xo Activity, the falling "white spots" are noticeably jerkier in os64 (XO-1.5) than in os10 (XO-1). Also, on os64 the (software?) cursor sometimes "flickers" annoyingly. It is always noticeable in the google-chrome browser (on Sugar), and for instance in the new version of the cartoonbuilder-7.xo Activity. In contrast, the (hardware?) cursor in the Opera browser operates smoothly in os64 (on Sugar). mikus
