====How to Clear ./sugar====
 +
{{Note/note|
 +
* '''When making a new VM''', to clear the Sugar Journal of old entries and to avoid identity conflicts among copies of the VM, enter the command {{Code|rm&nbsp;-rf&nbsp;~/.sugar}} in the Terminal activity. Then shutdown the VM. This will clear all Learner information on the VM and let you start with a fresh install. Skipping this will result in collisions in the Neighborhood view of the Jabber network between separate copies of the appliance. Verify the presence of the '''.sugar''' directory by entering {{Code|ls&nbsp;-a}} in Terminal.
 +
* '''When cloning a customized VM''', in order to keep the Journal and installed .xo Activities, use {{Code|rm&nbsp;-rf&nbsp;~/.sugar/default/owner.key*}} in the Sugar Terminal, and then '''shutdown the VM'''. enter in root terminal:{{Code|su (password) shutdown -h now}} This leaves the Journal entries and removes only the previous Learner's identity key files.
 +
* '''To clear the Sugar Journal''':{{Code|rm&nbsp;-rf&nbsp;~/.sugar/default/datastore}} This may be needed if the Journal becomes clogged with too many entries. '''USE WITH CAUTION'''}}

Getting set up on IRC

Copied from Google_Code_In_2018/background#Getting_set_up_on_IRC

We use IRC for much of our communication. Unfortunate, Freenode, our IRC server, has been under attack by trolls of late, so we have had to lock down our channels. Therefore, you'll need to create a "registered account" to login. (You can use an IRC client or open https://webchat.freenode.net in a browser.)

To register on Freenode: 

/msg NickServ REGISTER password youremail@example.com

(Filling in your email and password)

Leave the window open if possible.

You will get an email that includes a command you'll need to type in to complete your registration. (It may take a while for the email to arrive.)

Go back to the open IRC window and paste in the verification line from the email you received in the bottom space.

If you have closed the IRC window, you will need to reopen it.

Once you are registered, you may join the #sugar channel: 

/join #sugar

When you reconnect at a later date, you may have to: 

/msg NickServ identify your-password

Please contact walter @ sugarlabs . org if you have any questions.

tested Beta:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/29/Spins
"Greetings. Per this fesco ticket: https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1714 I have created the Fedora 28 spins/labs page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/28/Spins All spin maintainers/owners/interested parties should test their spins and at least update this wiki page with beta/final testing. Spins that don't have at least one tester at Beta may be dropped and not shipped in Final, so PLEASE make sure at least someone tests. Spin maintainers are also encouraged to test their spin more often and make sure it's composing correctly every day for Branched f28 and rawhide. Thanks, kevin."

How to Clear ./sugar

35px-Activity-write.png
  • When making a new VM, to clear the Sugar Journal of old entries and to avoid identity conflicts among copies of the VM, enter the command rm -rf ~/.sugar in the Terminal activity. Then shutdown the VM. This will clear all Learner information on the VM and let you start with a fresh install. Skipping this will result in collisions in the Neighborhood view of the Jabber network between separate copies of the appliance. Verify the presence of the .sugar directory by entering ls -a in Terminal.
  • When cloning a customized VM, in order to keep the Journal and installed .xo Activities, use rm -rf ~/.sugar/default/owner.key* in the Sugar Terminal, and then shutdown the VM. enter in root terminal:su (password) shutdown -h now This leaves the Journal entries and removes only the previous Learner's identity key files.
  • To clear the Sugar Journal:rm -rf ~/.sugar/default/datastore This may be needed if the Journal becomes clogged with too many entries. USE WITH CAUTION'
