Re: [Sugar-devel] Record v90 (was: v89)
Testing audio-only Record-90: Strange results. I tested with the latest 0.92 nightly version (Fedora-15-Nightly-20110515.07-i686-Live-soas.iso) that Tom Gilliard found to boot. (I was able to successfully create it with Live USB Creator.) I recorded on two systems, one with camera, one without. Record worked as might be expected except for two crucial facts: 1) playback was a silent file, with only an opening and closing click/short noise-burst; 2) the files are generated in ogg SPEEX format, not ogg vorbis (hence they are of no use to me). With the camera system, during audio recording color video was animated (unlike below). One other test: Record-90 on an XO-1.5 upgraded to 0.84. Things generally proceded as expected, but with a frozen video picture during recording. Unexpectedly, the resultant audio was ogg VORBIS, but with intermittent stuttering or pauses. I verified all audio results by playing them with Audacity on my desktop PC; same results as described above. Strange indeed . . .

I tested with the latest 0.92 nightly version (Fedora-15-Nightly-20110515.07-i686-Live-soas.iso) that Tom Gilliard found to boot. (I was able to successfully create it with Live USB Creator.) I recorded on two systems, one with camera, one without. Record worked as might be expected except for two crucial facts: 1) playback was a silent file, with only an opening and closing click/short noise-burst; 2) the files are generated in ogg SPEEX format, not ogg vorbis (hence they are of no use to me). With the camera system, during audio recording color video was animated (unlike below). One other test: Record-90 on an XO-1.5 upgraded to 0.84. Things generally proceded as expected, but with a frozen video picture during recording. Unexpectedly, the resultant audio was ogg VORBIS, but with intermittent stuttering or pauses. I verified all audio results by playing them with Audacity on my desktop PC; same results as described above. Strange indeed . . .

Close activity. This is with 0.90 SoaS. Should be fixed with v90. The problem is that audio recording was broken without a camera, and I guess you don't have a camera on your setup. In v90 this works, its usable but there are some UI oddities to be resolved at a later date.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Package Task for Fedora
I am sure Peter Robinson will be happy if you help him :) Gonzalo 2011/5/13 Yader Velásquez yajo...@gmail.com Hi guys, I just finished a little job like python/sugar programmer in a local OLPC deployment organization in Nicaragua. Now I have free time, and want to collaborate with this project. Also I just approved as package maintainer in Fedora, I would like to contribute in this way. Where could I start? Any tool or activity that needs to be a RPM? -- GNU/Linux User # 480207 http://yadervblog.drupalgardens.com/ https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Yaderv*¡Desde abajo y a la izquierda!* ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
Re: [Sugar-devel] [OLPC-AU] Search in Favourites View is disabled

I do find it odd that to reach non-favourite activities the learner needs to use the list view button or the Ctrl+2 accelerator for the list view ... but on the other hand, I can see the use-case in teaching context; start the year with few favourites, and include the favouring as part of the lesson plan. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
Re: [Sugar-devel] Activities/All
I can't remember for sure, but perhaps the Browse home page link Activities in older versions pointed at wiki.laptop.org. It now points at activities.sugarlabs.org ... and shows a Browse Activities page, ... which at first might be understood as activities for the browse activity ... ;-) -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
