Re: Arch Linux XO image and Sugar packages

2013-10-07 Thread Daniel Narvaez
Hello,

I setup a buildbot instance to build the packages daily, using the XO as a
build slave for arm

http://sugarlabs.org:8011/waterfall
https://github.com/dnarvaez/archbot

You can pull them by adding this to your /etc/pacman.conf

[sugar]
SigLevel = Never
Server = http://sugarlabs.org/~dnarvaez/archsugar/$arch

I tested them on my laptop and on the XO. Though Arch Linux Arm supports a
lot of devices, including the Raspberry PI

http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms

If you have any of these please give it a try, I'd be happy to try to fix
stuff up if it doesn't work for some reason. (I have armv7 packages but not
armv6 and armv5 yet, as you can see from the buildbot, hopefully I will
figure out those soon).

I would like to understand better what you mean with porting. It should
just be matter of writing package specs  (or really fixing the existing
ones...), no?

If there is any more work involved strongly suggest  you first discuss it
on this mailing list, then have it done upstream directly. That way the
whole community will benefit from your effort and you will benefit from the
community input. Upstreaming after the fact rarely works.

I was mostly concerned about Samuel feeling that everyone is developing
they're own version of Sugar. I don't see that or at least I don't see
differences with the past.

We probably can have sugar-devel as email destination... Though I'm not
sure why people wouldn't just watch the modules they are interested in? It
seems more flexible. Anyway not opposed to send all modules to the whole
mailing list if there is consensus on that.

Well "everyone seems to be developing their own version of Sugar" seems to
be more than that. But maybe I'm just reading too much into it.

There aren't multiple groups of people or individuals developing sugar on
their own. As far as I know all the work that is being done these days is
going upstream.

We usually have 1 reviewer per patch. All the patches that have been

Because if we send patches to the mailing I'm pretty sure some people will

Australia builds have apparently a few non-yet-upstreamed patches. Both
Gonzalo and Walter are very much involved in upstream work, I'm absolutely
confident they will upstream as soon as it make sense.

OLPC OS is pretty much all upstream, as far as I know.

Dextrose. I know they accumulated non-upstream patches in the past. We
landed a couple of features coming from there before the freeze. I'm not
sure what is going on these days, which is why I wanted to know more from
David about the "porting" they are doing.

To simplify things I will only answer about the 0.100 release cycle. Things

There has been debate only about one set of patches which was too big and
complicated to review. Someone took care of splitting it up in the end
though and it landed.

I'm not aware of duplicate work. I'm not aware of semi-private things used
to differentiate products.

I don't think a lot of development is happening downstream. I have to admit
I don't have much visibility about Dextrose/Activity Central though.

I think it's fine for some development to land downstream first, as long as
it is discussed openly from the beginning. It's often a good way to try
things out...

I'm more concerned that even summing up the resources, there might not be
enough to keep development alive. It really worried me that very little
testing, bug triaging and bug fixing is happening for 0.100.

I don't know if it's constructive or not, but I'd say it's certainly
useful. You are identifying the major limitations of the current sugar-web
framework. Just some notes about them.

1 Inability to do OAuth

This has been discussed for Firefox OS too and as far as I know there is no
good solution for it yet. I won't claim to understand all the security
implications, tough the basic issue seems to run content from the web
inside an higher privileged application. In our case it's worst because we
don't support hosted web applications at all.

2 Journal

This is probably the issue we have been most aware of. I've been thinking
in the per activity datastore direction too and I think it's probably the
best one. Though as you say that involves UI redesign and we would need to
figure out compatibility with existing activities. (Please share the webkit
code, I don't know if I'll have time to hack on it but I did think to write
something like that at some point, it would be interesting to look at it if
nothing else).

3 Collaboration

One of the reasons we haven't tackled it yet is that we think something
like what you proposed might be a better solution than trying to wrap the
current native framework (which is also known to be very unreliable).

So as I see you either create a framework which mimics Sugar and no web
> developer will use it or create a framework which implements what a web

>

We probably all agree that it would be awesome to have something  that
integrates well with Sugar and works transparently by reusing existing web
technologies. I don't think that's easy to achieve though. It has been said
in previous discussions that without the close integration between
activities and system, Sugar would be just yet another suite of educational
applications (and likely not the best of them). I very much agree and I
think it's tricky to preserve that while moving to frameworks which are
supposed to work everywhere.

We could have started with something more web developer friendly and
incrementally integrated it into the native Sugar platform, for example by
redesigning the Journal in the way you described, and somehow adapting
native activities to the new design. Instead we went for something targeted
at the current Sugar developers with the idea of making it incrementally
more web friendly.

I have been on the fence on what was the best approach and I still am.
Something to consider is that we barely have the resources to maintain the
existing native code. I doubt, for example, that we would be able to ship a
redesigned Journal. Consider also that the people most involved with this
work has all a good knowledge of the Sugar platform but are not really web
developers.

Just my $0.02. Manuel might want to post his perspective too.

I don't fully  understand the problems involved yet but mozilla seems to
have a found a solution to this

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=852720

We do have a stable origin already given by the app:// protocol we are
using. Though I'm not sure that's the only requirement (the discussion on
the bug report is long and a bit confusing).

The patch queue is currently empty. In the last six months only one
patchset was rejected. It was by Activity Central and it was rejected by me
(not an OLPC employee) for purely technical reasons. The proof being that
the same patchset landed after being cleaned up and resubmitted properly by
another Activity Central developer.

More in general, no single developer is in charge of patch reviewing, OLPC
couldn't keep code out of the tree for non-technical reason even if they
wanted to. More specifically the ability to approve patches was offered to
one Activity Central developer, which never used it.

Mailing list posts going unanswered isn't really uncommon in free software
projects. But most of the time it just means that no one knows the answer
or everyone is too busy.

Only me and Manuel are usually answering about HTML5. I have not answered

Hi David,

I just started a thread about 0.102 focus and features. If you want to get
involved defining the upstream roadmap there is your chance! For 0.100 we
kept that very very simple, a short list of new features basically. But if
you want to contribute with a product specification I think that would be
awesome.

Both being hardware agnostic and OS agnostic make sense at a certain level.
But I feel like Sugar Labs needs one or more well defined flagship products
to focus on. That gives us something to market, to test, to design for.

The only Sugar based product which has really been successful until now is
the XO. And that makes us still very dependent on OLPC strategies.

Given the uncertainity of the OLPC situation (or rather it seems pretty
certain that their investement on Sugar has been heavily scaled down), I
think Sugar Labs should try to come up with another flagship product to
focus on. Sugar on Raspberry? Sugar as a cross OS application? Sugar on
some custom built (by who?) piece of hardware? I don't know but I feel it's
something we will need to figure out.

Sorry, keyboard acting up.

I think we are still very early in the life of the web activities
framework. I can't think of a single API that we could consider set in

That's a segmentation fault I think. It would be good if you could launch
it with sugar-launch -d and post the backtrace., possibly after having
installed debug packages.

I don't think that's true.

I'm one of the three developers involved in the web activities work and I
like many of your ideas. Manuel in his reply appeared to be interested too.
I have the feeling that if you look into it some more you might see the
paths are not that different. But even if you really think we got it all
wrong , I'd say we have been mostly researching so far... there is
certainly space to fix the direction.

Please get involved. Post your thoughts (constructive or not) when we
discuss topics we have been researching (I'd say we did that for any non
trivial topic so far). Make proposals, send patches.

As far as I know these are based on the latest OLPC builds (and kernel).
Only the sugar packages are updated, see the wiki page Walter linked.
Gonzalo just linked the XO4 build linked from Walter's page.

I'm giving that a try. I was able to build a Fedora 20 image for XO 1.5

https://github.com/dnarvaez/olpc-os-builder

I don't have hardware to test that though... I'm now trying to build for
1.75 which is harder but I can actually test. I need to rebuild the X
driver but I think that will require some patching, let's see if I can get
it to work...

It would be good to start the kernel with systemd.unit=multi-user.target so
that (hopefully) we just get a console instead of dcon freezing/X startup...

I'm not sure how to easily pass kernel arguments on the XO though. Does
anyone know?

I built an image for 1.75

http://sugarlabs.org/~dnarvaez/oob/images/

I've not been able to test yet. I don't have my usual usb stick with me and
having troubles finding something the XO likes.

Does the 3.10 kernel which is used there have olpc patches applied?

Is this the change you are referring to

https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/arm/2013-June/006116.html

Rebuilding systemd wouldn't be too bad if it solves it...

That would be awesome of course.

I built a xo4 image, which like 1.75 boots fine into sugar

http://sugarlabs.org/~dnarvaez/oob/images/xo4/

The main problem, as discussed, is that firmwares are not loaded. I'm
building a systemd rpm with firmware loading enabled. If we can get wifi
working then it should be easier to play with stuff, building in the
virtual machine takes really too long.

By the way, I suspect the issue with small icons is something we already
fixed in 0.101. As soon as we have the base system working decently I'm
planning to make builds with latest sugar from git.

Re: [Sugar-devel] XO on Fedora 20 (was Re: [GSoC] Porting To Python3)

2014-05-11 Thread Daniel Narvaez
I made builds for xo1 and xo1.5 with the firmware change

http://sugarlabs.org/~dnarvaez/oob/images/

The xo1 boots into sugar but there are no activities installed (I probably
got something wrong in the ini). Testing on the xo1.5 one would be welcome,
I'm curious if firmware solves the startup freeze.

Re: [Sugar-devel] XO on Fedora 20 (was Re: [GSoC] Porting To Python3)

2014-05-11 Thread Daniel Narvaez
A couple more images, for xo1 and xo1.5. They have sugar packages built
from latest sugar git. I have not tested them yet so they might not even
boot, but if someone gives them a try please let me know how they works.

http://146.185.144.82:3000/images/xo1/1/
http://146.185.144.82:3000/images/xo1.5/1/

The xo1.5 one also *attempts* to fix the issue reported by Martin. The
problem is that I'm running the x86 build slave inside docker.io, which
doesn't like xpart. So I patched olpc-os-builder to manually losetup the
partitions, but it's sort of tricky to get right. It will work eventually :)

I have arm packages for latest git almost built, so tomorrow I should be
able to build xo1.75 and xo4 images too. The oob configurations and some
initial bits of automated builds infra are now here

How far does it get? What are the last messages you see?

Mostly I wonder if it's the partitions issue that tch reported yesterday or
if we fail when running X.

Ok, at least the partitions problem is fixed then. If Gonzalo can look at
the logs with a serial port that might tell what is going on. I susoect the
X driver but hard to say blindly :)

I'm not quite convinced this is due to the not initialized eth0 (I'm not
sure what that is due too though). From the serial console are you able to
see the content of /var/log/Xorg.0.log (assuming there is one)?

2014-05-12 Thread Daniel Narvaez
Hello,

things are looking good so far, we already have all the models booting into
sugar 0.101 with wif apparentlyi working. I would like to take a step back
and understand a bit better where we want to go with this. Some random
thoughts and questions.

* To really understand how much work is left I think we need some good
testing, especially on the hardware related bits. I expect there will be
lots of small things to fix, but it would be good to understand as early as
possible if there are roadblocks. I'm a bad tester and I've never used the
XO much, so I'm often not sure what is a regression and what is not... thus
helping with this would be particularly appreciated.
* Which deployments are planning to ship 0.102 soon and hence are
interested in this work? I know of AU. Maybe Uruguay?
* Do we need to support all the XO models?
* Should we contribute the olpc-os-builder changes back to OLPC or fork it?
I don't know if OLPC will do any active development on the linux side of
things, if not maybe better to turn this into a sugarlabs thing.
* Are interested deployments using olpc-update? If I'm not mistake AU is
not.
* Do we care about maintaining the GNOME "dual boot"? I'm afraid we do, but
I want to make sure.
* As I mentioned in some other thread I'm interested in setting up
automated  builds from sugar master. I have some vague plan of what it
would look like and wrote bits of it. The basic idea is that you would push
changes to github and get images automatically built. I think this is good
for upstream testing but the same infrastructure could be used by
deployments. Are people interested in using this?

Hi,

to  be honest I haven't even evaluated alternative distributions because I
don't think we would have enough resources to do it anyway. We are making
minor changes to olpc-os-builder, rewriting it for another distribution
would be a lot of work.

Are you thinking to deployment specific settings and activities here? Or
some kind of subset/reference that is good enough for all the interested
deployments?

Yes. I don't really have a strong feeling one way or another. I can send
patches for the generic parts if they are wanted.

I think we also need a place where to put reference configurations. I
initially had put them in olpc-os-builder, numbered as 14.0.0 but that
feels wrong... since no official olpc releases are planned. I suppose I
could edit the examples/f18-[model].ini ones instead, but I would need
access to whatever repository we use to change those without needing review
every time.

I've seen screenshots of GNOME fallback in F20, so I'm hopeful it's still
there. But yeah, in the worst case there are alternatives.

Yeah, weekly images and one rpm per commit was pretty much what I had in
mind. (With yum based updates doing frequent builds is less important by
the way). Well, it's probably good to have one image per commit to the
build configurations repository, but that's different.

The non-configuration changes we have so far are here:

https://github.com/dnarvaez/olpc-os-builder/compare/v7.0...v8.0

Can you review please? I can remove the dropbox change if I'm given access
to rpmdropbox.laptop.org. Also, as I mentioned, I would need write access
to the repo to push the configuration changes myself. I created an account
on dev.laptop.org, user name is dnarvaez.

And finally a 1.75 image

http://bender.sugarlabs.org:3000/images/xo1.75/1/

Testing on this would be appreciated because I don't have a working 1.75
with me.

Now I'm going to try to get the olpc-os-builder changes upstream and setup
the infrastructure bits more solidly on docky.sugarlabs.org (a vm I setup
yesterday). Then I'll do builds with the fixes Martin sent.
