<mschuessler> i'm trying to use sugar on the wetab
<mschuessler> wich is a handheld - would virtual box drain the battery pretty fast?
<kevix> there are deb and rpm pacakges for sugar but dont know how it would install on 'meego'
<mschuessler> which
<mschuessler> i am actually quiete close
<satellit_afk> no it will be slower. Otherwise I have no suggestions...
<mschuessler> meego has a yum as package manager
<kevix> if you do try it, add your results to the sugarlabs wiki, if you can :)
<mschuessler> i already did
<mschuessler> it compiled succesfuly
.....
<mschuessler> however - the project im working on aims at running suagr on top of meego
<mschuessler> runing sugar on the weetab stanbdalone wont be a big problem
<mschuessler> i would just install fedora and put the sugar-emulator on it
<mschuessler> if you dont midn i would like to post the error message here when i try start the suagr-emulator on meego - maybe its just a missing depencie or something the like
....
<mschuessler> it runs an 1.66 GHz Intel Atom N450
<satellit_afk> yes I have a ACER ASPIRE ONE N450 here and it works great....
<mschuessler> what operating system?
<satellit_afk> runs fedora fine
<mschuessler> yeah fedora would run on the wetab too
....
<mschuessler> but as i said - the project im working on aims at running thesugar interface on top of meego - so you could easly switch betwenn the two
....
<mschuessler> well and to the current state i managed to compile sugar and install all dpeencies i am aware of but i get the following error
...
<mschuessler> i have the feeling im really close to get it running
<mschuessler> The error is "no module named decorator" btw
<alsroot> mschuessler: you need to install python-decorator package (or how it is named in your distro)
<mschuessler> hey thx
<mschuessler> funny thing is - i just did
<satellit_afk> keep trying....people with knowledge are here at different times . also use mailing lists...sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org
<mschuessler> and it fixed the error - yay!
....
<mschuessler> now i get a dbus exception
<mschuessler> is that a familiar problem to you guys?
<alsroot> mschuessler: could you pastebin it
<kevix> mschuessler: could you say what kind of educational environment this is for?
<mschuessler> a school
<mschuessler> kids are aged 14 and up
<kevix> interesting.
<mschuessler> its an experiement - if kids would get along with a handheld in school
<kevix> there is the scratch and etoys environment which might be good be computational thinking/programming
<kevix> 'getting along' in an educational setting = ?
<mschuessler> well my project manager defintly wants etoys
<kevix> OLPC/Sugar is working on the XO-1.75, which is the precursor for the xo-3 (marvell ARM tablet). so they are working on how they will transition to a tablet paradigm
<mschuessler> yup i know
<mschuessler> put xo-3 is not here yet - an we get a couple of handheld devices for free
<mschuessler> so why not use sugar on those
<mschuessler> its a much better interface than the meego one (if use for education)
<kevix> hopefuly you can publish your result for olpc/sugar to see
<mschuessler> yup we will
<mschuessler> we document everything we try and what has worked and what not
<mschuessler> here is the current error btw: pastebin.com/DtyBD28m
<satellit_afk> do you have a wiki ? with these results?
<kevix> mschuessler: have you seen the videos from the recent edujam 2011 in Uraguy?
<mschuessler> no i havent seen them
<mschuessler> sry its http://pastebin.com/DTyBD28m
<mschuessler> were about wld i find those (videos)
<mschuessler> we do not currently run a wiki
<mschuessler> is guess publishing our results in the sugarlabs wiki would be a better aproch anyway
<satellit_afk> You may want to link it here: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Creation_Kit#Community_Distributions
<alsroot> mschuessler: Re: http://pastebin.com/DTyBD28m -- do you have sugar-datastore installed? does "datastore-service" command start well?
<kevix> mschuessler: http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/EduJAM/2011
<mschuessler> no it doenst - apparantly cjson seems not to be installed proberly
<mschuessler> i will fix this and tell you guys if i made a any process
<mschuessler> i have forwarded your sugestion to publish our apraoch under Community Distributions in the suagr wiki to my project manager
...
<mschuessler> it works! awesome!
