=====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 -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 {{Code|ls -a}} in Terminal.
* '''When cloning a customized VM''', in order to keep the Journal and installed .xo Activities, use {{Code|rm -rf ~/.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 -rf ~/.sugar/default/datastore}} This may be needed if the Journal becomes clogged with too many entries. '''USE WITH CAUTION'''}}

====Testing liveusb-creator in Windows 8.1====
*Tested by satellit on 2014/08/01
:NOTE: GUI works well in fedora.
"There are a number of things that need to fixed in the windows version of liveusb-creator.
1-) detect screen resolution and properly display GUI
2-) run in compatability mode (run as administrator)
3-) run as '''liveusb-creator --reset-mbr''' by default (this can be done in linux by editing the icon command)
4-)Fix the Download button on the GUI to work and be up to date."

====f22 Rawhide kernel 3.19.0.0 causes problems with Virtualbox 4.1.20====
"Fedora's 'bleeding edge' distro "rawhide" has rolled out kernel version 3.19.0.0 today. Virtualbox guest additions 4.1.20 fail with desktop integation (only a ~1000 pixel horizontal resolution can be achived). Mouse integration and shared folder integration is OK. I *do have* rebuilt the guest additions after the kernel upgrade - just telling in advance in case somebody should feel like to ask!"

==Workaround to start sugar-runner in workstation==
*Change desktop file in /usr/share/applications:
:add --resolution 1024x768
#gedit /user/share/applications/sugar-runner.desktop
[[File:Sugar-runner_change_resolution.png]]
:This fix is needed to make sugar-runner start correctly from the XO icon
:in f21-workstation bare metal install
:installed with # "yum install @sugar-desktop sugar-runner" .
*Notes: 11/16/2014
You must navigate root terminal to /user/share/applications/
gedit sugar-runner.desktop
:edit the Exec line and save
:Restart Workstation before the changes will work

==MultiWriter==
:http://fedoramagazine.org/duplicate-isos-to-multiple-usb-drives-with-multiwriter/
"A brand new application called MultiWriter has just hit the Fedora 21 repositories that allows you to write a single ISO (eg. the Fedora Workstation Live Image) to multiple USB drives all at the same time. The application is super simple to use, just insert the USB storage devices you want to write to make show up in the MultiWriter interface, then press a single button to choose the ISO and MultiWriter will image the ISO to all those USB drives."
"Multiwriter is now available in the Fedora 21 repositories, so you can install it using the Software application in Fedora Workstation, or on the command line with:"
sudo yum install gnome-multi-writer
==liveusb-creator==
[[File:Cinnamon_liveusb-creator_f21.png|500px]]
:Version 2014-11-26 :: v3.13.1
"Support a new destructive mode that uses dd to copy the iso directly to the device. This method tends to be more reliable,
and requires hybrid ISOs, which Fedora have been producing for a long time.
Added a new --dd command-line option
DVD iso support with the 'Overwrite device' method..."

:'''Question:''' "http://fedoraproject.org/static/hotspot.txt gives "OK" even with location services switched off in privacy ?
:'''Answer:'''that location service is not related to NetworkManager connectivity checking
:location service is used by weather application for example, possibly clocks ... to determine your location
:'''Question:''' not Captive Portal on/off ?
:'''Answer:'''no there is no easy on/off switch, it is still a hard dependency as package, but you can for example create a same config file in /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/99-connectivity-fedora.conf for example with "blank" uri "uri=" and "interval=0" that will override the default 20-connectivity-fedora.conf (man 5 NetworkManager.conf CONECTIVITY SECTION ... )
:'''Answer:'''here is a upstream bug report about making the easy "on/off" option available (or some other solution) https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=737362
:also that URL will always return OK if it is "real" so no MITM, its content wont change in any way when local settings are changed, it is only used with known content and accessed over secure connection to verify you have access to the internet ... (in case of MITM, it will fail, because certificate for fp.o cannot be valid assuming CAs don't allow someone to create one for that domain ... and they "sign it") "

"gnome-software will support installing system add-ons such as fonts and codecs. It will show additional metadata for applications: screenshots, ratings, other details.
We will also work with the Fedora infrastructure team to obtain the metadata online for all applications instead of shipping it statically for a limited set."

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora.next
"This all came out of a number of proposals at Flock 2013,
including Architecture for a More Agile Fedora and Stephen Gallagher's suggestion that we use that architecture to design, build,
and market three distinct Fedora products. This grew into a proposal accepted by the Fedora advisory board, and the formation of Initial Working Groups by FESCo. "
