It has a repository: http://xo-get.olpc.at/repository/ - but the entry
for Chat is out of date so I don't know where it syncs from.

 Bert's joyride-activities script seems to pull from
 http://xs-dev.laptop.org/~cscott/repos/joyride/, which is very  
 out of
 date. For example, it has Chat-37 as the latest, but Chat-42 has  
 been
 released.

 How do we get activity updates in there?

Yeah until we have another way to update the activities I think the best is to 
update by the normal joyride procedure. To get a full list of the latest 
activities 
and not only the sucrose ones.

I will do the ones I maintain now as well and encourage you to do so as well 
unless 
someone has a better idea.

I updated the script for the sucrose activities (included as well Record). But 
obviously the activities not included in Sucrose won't be updated with that 
script.

http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/ReleaseTeam/Releases/Sucrose/0.81.4#Instructions_to_test_in_olpc_joyride

But as these are all workarounds i guess we should not spend too much time on 
that...

   Now kernel in joyride requires 3DNOW and it prevent from emulating
in typical environment. That would makes testing and translation work
difficult for many of occasional contributors.
   It would be nice if OLPC or SugarLabs can *regularly* build
LiveCD/USB with persitent storage support without 3DNOW requirement.

Those activities are part of Sugar: Sucrose = Glucose + Fructose =

Easiest way to run the latest activities

2008-07-09 Thread Sayamindu Dasgupta
Hi all,
The easiest way, perhaps, to run the bleeding edge version of Sugar on
an XO is to run the latest joyride. Is there a similar way to run the
latest activities on an XO ? I am a bit concerned that many people who
are playing with the latest joyrides still have older activities from
a pack like the G1G1 one or the Peru installed, and consequently the
latest activities are not getting as much exposure/testing as
possible.
Thanks,
Sayamindu
