Also, Jim's book could help clarifying several concepts, though I

[Sugar-devel] Video Chat, Video Editing and VOIP activities for Sugar

[Manusheel Gupta]

Dear friends,

6 developers working at SEETA  will be spearheading the
design and development of video chat, video editing and VOIP activities in
Sugar starting Feb. 15. We have been trying to arrive at a decision on the
approach to be followed -  designing the application and writing the code
from ground zero vs. porting an existing open source application to Sugar.

We have been examining a number of open source applications, and believe
that it will be easier to port the following applications to Sugar than
reinventing the wheel  -

1. Video Chat - Pidgin  (http://www.pidgin.im/)
2. Video Editor - PiTiVi  (http://www.pitivi.org/)
3. VOIP activity - Shtoom (http://divmod.org/trac/wiki/ShtoomProject)

Wish to have your feedback on issues, implementation strategies and external
dependencies that we might have overlooked.

Regards,

Manu

[Sugar-devel] Test request: Wifi encryption changes...

[Martin Langhoff]

Hi lists,

I've recently been working on wifi & wpa association issues  on the
8.2.x releases (F-9, NM-6.5, Sugar 0.82) and there is bug I would like
to ask people to test for with Strawberry (of F11 images on XO),
Blueberry and the 0.87 SoaS builds.

I have definitely seen it a long time ago, and it was known, but it
wasn't on dev.l.o as an open bug so I tracked it as
http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10021

To repro you need an XO or SoaS and an access point...

* Setup an AP with WPA or WPA2 encryption, with a passphrase
* Connect to it from XO giving the right passphrase
* On the AP, change the passphrase
* On the XO, reconnect. The reconnect will try to use the stored
passphrase, fail, and ask for a new passphrase. However, NM ignores
the new passphrase.

Similar issues are likely to exist with changing between no
encryption, WEP, WPA, WPA2.

Hopefully this is fixed in newer NM + Sugar, but it is something
nobody has been testing, and it does mess things up in the field so we
need your help...

If this gets fixed, then we can remove the ugly "delete network info"
button from the control panel (which is just a workaround for this).

(Why am I asking for this? I don't have equipment at all at this
moment, as I am "on the move".)

cheers,


martín

[Sugar-devel] Test request: Overwhelm chat

[Martin Langhoff]

Long time ago, we've seen Chat.xo get slower and slower as messages
pile up. It didn't seem to be a network issue, but a "draw it on the
screen" or perhaps on the scrollable canvas.

Here is the original bug report. It was done with an XS, and the
networking side (wifi, XS) was not saturated. It just seemed like Chat
could not handle the traffic for purely "local" reasons.

Does this still happen on SoaS Strawberry? Blueberry? Latest?

This one is easy to test with a few XOs or SoaS machines and
hiperactive testers... It will probably be more visible on XO-1s
because the CPU and GPU are fairly limited in performance.

(I ask Strawberry because that's the Sugar that gets deployed on XO-1.5s ;-) )

[Sugar-devel] Tickets status - 3G Feature

[Daniel Castelo]

Just to be sure that we have the same status about this tickets.

The ticket 1652 "Add Connection Information to 3G (GSM) Modem Support" was
applied, but after that I received some improves to do. I could fix some of
theme (see the ticket information).

The ticket 1654 "Add Pin/Puk Configuration to 3G (GSM) Modem Support" was
not applied. I corrected some bugs produced by a previous merge with head. I
supposed that this patch will be applied in the next Sugar Version.

Great!

I think you'd be better off starting from Empathy
(http://live.gnome.org/Empathy), which already provides both features and
is built on the same communications platform (Telepathy) that Sugar
already uses.

> 2. Video Editor - PiTiVi  (http://www.pitivi.org/)

Yes. PiTiVi is the ideal starting point.

Definitely talk to the Telepathy developers (on their mailing list and
#telepathy on freenode).  They are very helpful.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Test request: Wifi encryption changes...

[C. Scott Ananian]

Clear network settings does have other uses, even in the absence of
bugs: you may want to remove a network from being autoselected, or
remove a password for a home network before lending your device to
someone.  In the absence of a per-connection editor (like nm-applet
has), "clear network settings" gets the job done.

This one's surprising, since the Sugar collaboration stack is based on
Telepathy, and Pidgin isn't.  Empathy would be a better base.

Of course, it would also make sense to look at the Video Chat activity,
even though it needs work.  The Telepathy folks might be able to advise
you on what its next steps should be, if you decide to work on it.

For Video Editor, you may want to take a look at OpenShot
(http://www.openshotvideo.com/). I tried it out a couple of weeks back
and it seemed to be quite impressive as far a basic video editor goes.

[Sugar-devel] Fedora Sugar Packaging Queue

[Sebastian Dziallas]

Hi all,

I'd like to take the chance to hint once more at our tracking bug [1], 
as well as the activity wiki page [2]. Recently, TamTam has been posted 
for review, too. I'm a little disappointed with the speed we're 
progressing with.

Here's a list of the currently most important things we need to get in.

Settings Manager - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=563598
NoDM - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=559559

TamTam Suite - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=564425
Typing Turtle - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=559213

Other reviews still require action, either by the packager or the 
reviewer. I'm going to ping the owners directly.

In other news, we're being blocked by licensing issues for some 
activities and the boot screen, as I've posted before.

If you get a second, please go ahead and help to unblock us here - for 
example by reviewing a package (these aren't really that complicated, so 
it shouldn't take too long) or by packaging an activity from the list.

Thanks,
--Sebastian

Just to make sure everybody understands what this is about. If we are 
unable clarify this, there won't be a boot screen specifically for SoaS 
at all.

If nobody complains by the end of this weekend, I'll just upload the 
images, put a GPLv2+ license in the archive and make a tarball, as this 
is what they've been listed under in Strawberry and Blueberry, too.

Alright, so here's the thing: I basically don't care what it's licensed 
under, as long as it's in the blessed license list either here [1] or 
here [2]. It would make certainly sense to go with a content license 
instead, agreed.

And I guess from how our logo policy [3] looks like, we might need to 
have a some more restrictive one there, since the tarball would 
essentially only bundle the boot screen (I guess it wouldn't make much 
sense to put something that's intended for SoaS in the sugar-artwork 
package, right? - Simon?).

 From the wiki table in [2], it looks like we could go with a CC-BY-ND, 
too. Is everybody alright with this?

I've recently submitted patches to bugs.sugarlabs.org for two activities
because we had identified them in dev.laptop.org bugs as having
inadequately described licenses in code and packaging, but are there
other activities that need this review?

[Sugar-devel] Problem importing hulahop.webview() in sugar emulator

[vijit singh]

Hello everyone,

SocialCalc is based upon the use of hulahop.webview widget. While trying to
run socialcalc on sugar emulator running on Fedora and Ubuntu, error saying
"No module hulahop" was occurring. So, we tried installing hulahop on these
linux distributions.

*1. Firstly we tried with ubuntu-8.10, here are the exact steps taken- *

* **xulrunner was pre-installed. And then I installed python-support.deb and
libxul0d.deb which are pre-requistie packages for python-xpcom package
(other pre-requistie packages were already installed). Then i installed
python-xpcom. And then I installed python-hulahop and hulahop. *

*Downlaod links for these packages are as follows:-*
*http://packages.ubuntu.com/en/intrepid/python/python-xpcom*
* **
http://packages.ubuntu.com/en/intrepid/hulahop*
*
**http://packages.ubuntu.com/en/intrepid/python-hulahop*

Now, though hulahop was getting imported but while using hulahop.webview, an
error saying "hulahop has no attribute webview" occured. However, when we
checked the hulahop folder, there was a file named webview.py, so this
problem might be because of some kind of wrongly set library paths.

*2. Then we tried it with ubuntu-9.10, with similar steps but got the same
result.*
*
*
*3. Then we tried it with fedora-11-*
*
*
*Installed hulahop and then xpcom from the following link- **
http://www.rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/mandriva/2009.1/i586/media/main/release/python-xpcom-1.9.0.8-1mdv2009.1.i586.html
*

Now, when we tried to use hulahop.webview, the following error occured-
http://pastebin.be/23452. though hulahop was getting imported properly in
this case as well.

Could someone please guide us about what are right steps in case we are
wrong somewhere. Also has anyone been able to use
hulahop.webview  successfully on linux distros before?

Regards,
VIJIT

for all ubuntu versions before 10.04(10.04 uses debian packages),
try sugar repos from
http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Community/Distributions/Ubuntu
the package is python-hulahop

but it supports only 9.10, 9.04, 8.04
not sure if supporting 8.10 makes sense today, since LTS is 8.04

Re: [Sugar-devel] FileShare Activity Feedback and Review Request

[Tim McNamara]

Justin,

Alastair, Grant & I had a great time with this app this morning. Seemed to
work great.

>From a UI perspective, I found myself wanting to click files to download
pending ones. This may be a hangup from too much web experience. Having to
click on the icon at the top took a little bit of retraining :)

Well done!

Tim.
