| − | One or two ideas collected for testing for tutorial page?
| |
| | | | |
| − | === OLPC/Sugar as Webserver ===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *Open Terminal and type the following to install Boa (approx. 100k)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | su -
| |
| − | yum -y install boa
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *Now put your index.html in /var/www
| |
| − | *Find your Sugar Computer/XO's IP Address. Still as root user (having entered su- already), enter into Terminal:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ifconfig
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *Look next to eth0 for 192.168.whatever (for example)
| |
| − | *Go to another machine on your LAN and type your Sugar Computer/XO's IP Address into your browser. There's your Sugar computer serving up a web page!

| − | ====Changing the "XO Guy"====
| |
| − |
| |
| − | [[Development_Team/Almanac/Making_Icons]] Save yourself some time. Don't make the mistake I made. Before you make an icon, see if it's already on the laptop!
| |
| − |
| |
| − | /usr/share/icons/sugar/scalable on the laptop contains a bunch of icons for your use. Also, svg-grabber is a python script that will download ~800 non-sugar svg's for you to work from.
| |

| |
| − |
| |
| − | To change the XO Guy, the symbol in the middle of the Home view (with applications opening around him/her), you have to follow a few steps:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *'''Create An Icon''' - You first have to make an icon image and save it as an SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) file with the name computer-xo.svg. Probably on your Mac or Windows machine. There are instructions on how to do this [http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Making_SVG_Icons_for_Sugar on the OLPC wiki].
| |
| − | *'''Transfer It To Your Computer''' - Copy computer-xo.svg to a USB or SD card and plug it into your OLPC or computer.
| |
| − | *'''Install it''' - Open Terminal and type the following commands to back-up the original icon and copy your new icon into the correct location:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | su -l
| |
| − | cp /usr/share/icons/sugar/scalable/device/computer-xo.svg /usr/share/icons/sugar/scalable/device/computer-xo.svg.bak
| |
| − | cp /media/<your usb or sd>/computer-xo.svg /usr/share/icons/sugar/scalable/device/computer-xo.svg
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *Now close terminal and press Ctrl,Alt,Erase.
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Restoring Icon To Original'''
| |
| − |
| |
| − | To restore computer-xo.svg back to the original, open terminal and type:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | su -l
| |
| − | cp /usr/share/icons/sugar/scalable/device/computer-xo.svg.bak /usr/share/icons/sugar/scalable/device/computer-xo.svg
| |
| − | rm /usr/share/icons/sugar/scalable/device/computer-xo.svg.bak
