Mandriva is only half-supported by sugar-jhbuild because
a) we don't have Mandriva VMs to look up and test things (and I 
currently don't have time to set them up) and
b) I don't know where else to look up stuff like package names (e.g. for 
Debian there is packages.debian.org)




Mandriva Linux release 2008.1 (Official) for mipsel
We currently only have a config file for 2009.1. If you can verify that 
2008.1 has the required versions of all the packages we need, I'm happy 
to add the config. For testing you can just copy 
mandrivalinux-2009.1.xml to mandrivalinux-2008.1.xml in 
sugar-jhbuild/config/sysdeps.


I remains at you disposal if you want to test your code on this mips 
hardware

(either on Mandriva or Debian).
Debian should work just fine (both native packages and sugar-jhbuild), 
so would be nice if you could test that.

Re: [Sugar-devel] XO emulator for Linux

2009-10-10 Thread Walther Neuper
Hi Wade,

thank you very much for your help in getting started with activity 
development !

Best regards,
Walther

PS: We'll follow http://git.sugarlabs.org/ for having our ReckonPrimer 
project hosted, as you recommended a year ago. Since that time the 
project has become more  consolidated.

 Hi Walther,

 http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activity_Team/Resources links to options 
 for setting up Activity development environment on Windows, Linux and 
 MacOS X.  Briefly:  For Linux hosts you can use native packages, 
 jhbuild or a virtual machine. The best Windows and Mac option is 
 VirtualBox. The resources page also links to various tutorials, wiki 
 pages, and other references that are useful when learning Activity 
 development.

 Regarding automated testing, please check the Sugarbot project 
 at http://code.google.com/p/sugarbot/.  It looks like it's been idle 
 for about a year, and I'm not sure what stage of completion it reached 
 (who was the mentor  btw?), but it may make a good starting point!

 Best regards,
 Wade

 Last summer semester 1 student built a prototype, and there are

 this activity during this winter semester.
 Time scheduled for this is not much more than 100h, thus it is too
 short
 to build up a complicated development environment, and too short for
 getting familiar with complicated things.
 But we would like to have

 Most students have Linux (Ubuntu etc) on their computers, some
 Windows.

 Any suggestions are welcome !

 others, we
 would be even more motivated !

Houston here! I see Luke Macken has rebuilt sugar-toolkit not to depend 
on python-json since that got merged into the general python.

The obvious question is whether this build got tagged. If not, well, we 
need a request. And could maybe use that to get the latest Sugar stuff 
in... ;)

[Sugar-devel] sunjammer: upgrade to Jaunty, Sat Oct 10th @ 20:00-24:00EST

2009-10-10 Thread Bernie Innocenti
Tonight I'm going to upgrade Sunjammer from Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex)
to 9.04 (Jaunty Jakalope).

Considering the amount of services hosted on Sunjammer, this is a
delicate procedure. I've already performed a test upgrade on our spare
server beamrider to get an idea of what kind of fallout to expect and
how to resolve it.

Some services may become intermittently unavailable as I update
configuration files and restart the various daemons. Advance apologies
for the disservice.

Fixed time reference:

I just did it and it resolved the warning with the missing dependencies + with
the unknown distro version.

Then the missing packages are:
alsa-lib-devel avahi-gobject-devel boost-devel dbus-devel dbus-glib-devel
dbus-python enchant-devel expat-devel fribidi-devel gnome-vfs2-devel
gstreamer0.10-espeak gtk2-devel icon-slicer libabiword libabiword libffi5

python-devel python-distutils-extra python-hippo-canvas python-olpcsound
python-xpcom wv-devel xapian-bindings-python xulrunner-devel-unstable zlib-devel

Then, at the end of the sugar-jhbuild update phase, I get:

*** the following modules were not built *** [40/40]
squeak meta-glucose turtleart meta-fructose meta-sugar


I am actually in the the sugar-jhbuild build phase

More later

Note that you can build materials inside many Sugar Activities,
including Turtle Art, Etoys, Scratch, Pippy, the MIDI music apps, and
others, and you can build lesson plans around others, including
Measure and Record for scientific data acquisition and so on. I will
be happy to assist your students in exercising their imaginations in
these directions.

I am currently designing a gravity/relativity exhibit for a contest
organized by The Tech Museum of Innovation in San Jose. Mythbusters
just did a show on this very subject, testing whether a bullet fired
level from a gun will hit the ground at the same time as a bullet
dropped from the same height. This and the fact that the parallel
projection of a parabola is a parabola are both aspects of Galilean
relativity.
