| + | Re: [Testing] Auckland Testing Summary 18 June 2011 |
| + | About me has a new color icon picker, it is quite strange and confusing |
| + | as to what colors you have picked |
| + | ................................... |
| + | Here is how it works: |
| + | the two XOs on the left cycle through different fill colors, keeping |
| + | the stroke color constant; |
| + | the two XOs on the right cycle through different stroke colors, |
| + | lkeeping the fill color constant; |
| + | the XO in the center is the current selection -- what you'll get when you exit. |
| + | (There are two XOs for fill and two XOs for stroke so that you can |
| + | cycle back and forth in two directions -- i.e., undo.) |
| + | If you have suggestions as to how to make this less confusing, please |
| + | let me know. |

| + | XO-1.5's do not have Mesh networking support, so they use 802.11 Ad-hoc |
| + | networks. XO-1's default to Mesh networks at the moment for compatibility, |
| + | because that is what they historically have done. |
| + | Once an XO-1.5 starts an Ad-hoc network, the XO-1's will spot that network |
| + | within a minute or two, and use the same Mayan numeral as the XO-1.5 to |
| + | indicate its presence. If all the XOs leave an Ad-hoc network it |
| + | disappears; but Network Manager/Sugar cache its presence for a while in case |
| + | a scan accidentally missed a network. |
| + | When an XO-1 sees an Ad-hoc networks they are all filled in as "occupied", |
| + | because an XO-1 does not show the unfilled variants to allow an XO-1 to |
| + | start them. |
| + | This behavior has been around since OLPC build 10.1.3 (860) & Sugar 0.90, |
| + | and is described at http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Features/Ad_hoc_Networking |
| + | I believe XO-1's can be adjusted to default to Ad-hoc as well if desired |

| + | <silbe> Sugar will use link-local collaboration (telepathy-salut), using multicast on the LAN (e.g. wifi). |
| + | If a Jabber server is configured, Sugar will try to connect to it (using telepathy-gabble). |
