- [Sugar-devel] [SWEETS] Testing collaboration related fixes 05/07/2012
Hi all! Following the plan for Harmonic Distribution v0.2 (which will be a basis for Sugar Distribution to use in peruvian pilot), in Sugar Shell code were made fixes that are intended to make Telepathy (everything related to Neighbourhood view and Sugar Activities sharing/joining) more stable (that was broken since global redesign started after 0.88 release). Fixes are accessible from SweetsDistribution:Factory repository. Follow regular Sweets Distribution installation instructions[1] to install fixed Sugar Shell on all supported platforms[2]. Some visible changes in F1 view: * the number of buddies should be increased from ~20 to 70-90 some Sugar versions (maybe 0.90-0.92) don't publish information about nickname/colors on regular basis; this information are being stored on disk for now * for some buddies, server still don't have information about colors (replaced by gray) and nick names (jabber ids) If you have a time and want to help Puno deployment pilot, please, consider possibility to install sweets-desktop from Factory repository and do some testing of collaboration functionality. Some tips: * while interacting with another buddies, make sure that all participants use Sweets Distribution (some F1 buddies might misbehave) * the good criteria of stability level of new Sugar is comparing with how collaboration happen in 0.88 Sugar. Source code, for interested in people, can be found in top commits from: * http://git.sugarlabs.org/desktop/sugar * http://git.sugarlabs.org/desktop/sugar-toolkit * http://git.sugarlabs.org/server/prosody-sugar [1] Sweets_Distribution#Installation [2] Sweets_Distribution/Supported_platforms -- Aleksey Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

Pungi
- Advanced
- used to build non-live CD/DVD isos
Pungi needs to run on the arch it is composing, as root, and with an install of what it is composing, eg if you are composing Fedora 8, you need to be running Fedora 8. This is so that the correct userland tools are used to create the images and such used by anaconda. The eventual usage of pungi will most likely be in mock chroots to facilitate this. It needs to run on the arch it is composing due to how anaconda-runtime determines what files to put in the boot images at this time. Currently the releases of pungi are designed to run on an updated Rawhide system. Development of pungi always tracks Rawhide.
- The following sections..." assume you have installed the mock package and prepared the mock chroot"

I installed Fedora 18 last night, and I have to say I like sugar-build more and more. With just this steps in a clean F18 you get Sugar running and ready to hack each part of it: Kudos Daniel Narvaez!

L10n Translations
There is a git user named "pootle" that acts as the proxy by which all PO file translations are committed from the Pootle server. Please make pootle a committer on the repo and I will make the connections between git and the Pootle server. Some "best practices" about working with git and Pootle are described here.

Tony Anderson: The school server is gateway and dns for the XOs and can certainly resolve http://know to a fixed address, which is the more orthodox way to do this. Incidentally, I believe the problem with the wiki is that the url is http://schoolserver/wiki4schools/ not http://schoolserver/wiki. Normally, the XOs access everything from the Browse home page so that keyboard entry of urls is not needed. However, because of the xo-custom script problems this was not set up.

SD Card Install
This is a Fedora 17 Hard Float Trimslice Image suitable for writing to an SD card and placed in the Trimslice's Full Size SD slot (Front slot) and booting without further modification. Write with xzcat file.xz > /dev/mmcblkX, put in the device, and you're ready to go. Boots to a serial console.
Most of the SD card images can be used with a USB storage device drive using the following method: Write the image to both the USB storage device and an SD card. IE, write the image using xzcat file.xz > /dev/sdX then xzcat file.xz > /dev/mmcblkX. Once written, use a partition editor such as fdisk to delete the VFAT partition from the USB drive and the Linux partition from SD card. Plug the SD and USB storage into your ARM device and power up. The ARM system will load any applicable bootloader pieces, kernel, and initramfs from the SD card, but use the USB storage for the root filesystem. Nearly images are self-sufficient, but a kernel tarball is optionally available with the contents of the image's /boot and /lib/modules directories. These can be used in conjunction with the tarball root filesystems to create your own images.
Resizer

Debian on Chromebook
- Entering Developer Mode
"On this device, both the recovery button and the dev-switch have been virtualized. Our partners don't really like physical switches - they cost money, take up space on the motherboard, and require holes in the case. To invoke Recovery mode, you hold down the ESC and Refresh keys and poke the Power button. To enter Dev-mode you first invoke Recovery, and at the Recovery screen press Ctrl-D (there's no prompt - you have to know to do it). It will ask you to confirm, then reboot into dev-mode. Dev-mode works the same as always: It will show the scary boot screen and you need to press Ctrl-D or wait 30 seconds to continue booting. You'll still have to run "crossystem dev_boot_usb=1" and reboot once to boot from USB drives with Ctrl-U. To leave Dev-mode and go back to normal mode, just follow the instructions at the scary boot screen. It will prompt you to confirm. If you want to leave Dev-mode programmatically, you can run "crossystem disable_dev_request=1; reboot" from a root shell . Th ere's no way to enter Dev-mode programmatically, and just seeing the Recovery screen isn't enough - you have to use the three-finger salute which hard-resets the machine first. That's to prevent a remote attacker from tricking your machine into dev-mode without your knowledge. An unrelated note: Holding just Refresh and poking the Power button hard-resets the machine without entering Recovery. That's occasionally useful, but use it with care - it doesn't sync the disk or shut down politely, so there's a nonzero chance of trashing the contents of your stateful partition."
