Andrés,
Go is one of my favorite games, so I'm excited to see that someone has
picked up development again! It requires such balance between aggressiveness
and defense, as well as local play vs spreading out on the board - I think
it's a great game for kids to learn. I look forward to trying out a

It's actually just GNOME for now... but I'm keeping an eye on it and
will add support for that protocol as soon as it's agreed/implemented.

While Startup_Diagnosis was the repository for that information in
the past, the relevant bits for the vast majority of users/repairpeople
have been moved to XO_Troubleshooting_PowerOn and I stopped
linking to Startup_Diagnosis (which was left as a developer resource.)
Much thanks to the authors

Hello all!
I've recently started learning python and sugar programming and, while
trying to be useful in the meantime, have been tinkering around with the
PlayGo activity.

The attached patch is untested and likely insufficient to solve this

I posted about an experience I had, where I was surprised to find
that my OLPC had become unresponsive. My reason for posting was to
"alert" others that "surprises may be lurking" for OLPC users.

You do realize that both forum.laptop.org and the OLPCNews forum have
been up and running for months (years?) with thousands of replies?

Ah, I understand. It is probably best to discuss this with people
working on the presence service..

Hi All,
Emiliano has an elegant workaround but crashing the XO on NAND full (to
un-recoverable state?) is a heinous bug that affects essentially all users.
If someone has the bug ID handy can you send it out and mark it a
blocker for 8.2.0 (priority = blocker and keyword includes blocks:8.2.0)?

Hi Mikus,
Can you file a bug on this (dev.laptop.org) and include steps to
reproduce and test?
Mark the milestone 8.2.0 and priority High (may be triaged higher if it
affects a lot of cases). My impression is its a design improvement (e.g.
hour glass cursor) we should target for 9.1.0 but we c
I recently upgraded to Joyride and am having trouble with the microphone.
In the powerup selftest the microphone works, but the level of the
playback is much lower than the powerup chime or the sound sweep test.
The microphone does not work in Record or Measure.

Well, we can add some sugar API around the gtk clipboard stuff, but

The "visual speed of operation" of palette opening/closing on the
screen is noticeably slower on the OLPC than on a workstation. When
the OLPC user fails to "slow down" with his actions, unintended
consequences can result.

This is really awesome, congrats.
I would like to know how much time takes every switch (including the
