Re: [Sugar-devel] I reinstalled my system back to a previous image, but don't know where to put my public key for gitorious

2011-06-02 Thread laurent bernabe
Hello,


   - for my system instability, i fixed it by installing Xubuntu instead of
   Kubuntu (my laptop begins to be old). So another question come to me : if i
   change of computer, i presume that i will have to generate a new key pair
   (as the public key ends with my system account). Am i right ?
   - i generated a new keys pair, but i was still unable to confirm my key
   on sugar gitorious. I joined the script file of my terminal.

Regards

 You can configure your system with a new SSH key pair.

 Then you must configure gitorious by uploading the new public half of
 the SSH key.

 I don't think either your local system repository or the gitorious
 repository are ever configured with an SSH key.

  Because i erased the old public key in the public repository (that was
  before i read your answer) , replaced by a new public key = which i
  lost when my computer crashed one more time.
 
  What should i do ?

 You keep losing keys.  I suggest careful actions.  Different to normal
 actions because of your unusual environment.

 0.  remedy the cause of your computer crashing,

 1.  make a new SSH key pair,

 2.  copy the SSH key pair to more reliable media, such as a USB drive,
 or CD-R, or another computer via network, taking into account the risk
 of losing the key or having the key intercepted, (e.g. if you only use
 the key for gitorious, then the exposure risk is low.)

 3.  upload the public key again to gitorious,

 4.  confirm you can access gitorious using the private key you hold,

 5.  clone the public repository to a new directory,

 6.  resume development of the files.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [PATCH] [SugarCommander] Added ability to export Journal items.

2011-06-02 Thread James Simmons
Sebastian,

Do you have this in a cloned Git repository?  That is how others have
made modifications to my Activities.  Aleksey Lim did this when he
made improvements to Speech in Read Etexts, for instance.

I did not put this functionality into Sugar Commander because I didn't
think it would work.  If there are deployments without Rainbow where
it might be of use, fine with me.  However, I like my Activities to
degrade gracefully.  If you could do some permission checks of known
files and hide this functionality for deployments where it would not
work that would be helpful.

Ana Cichero said my chapter Fun With The Journal was discussed at
EduJAM.  I guess she wasn't kidding!

Re: [Sugar-devel] SunMoonMusic Activity does not open in Mango Lassi

2011-06-02 Thread Art Hunkins
@ Walter:

Thanks for the info. In Mango Lassi, indeed, user-installed activities *cannot* 
be erased. I've filed a ticket:

http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/2876

Strangely, the latest nightly Fedora 15 builds work correctly in this regard.

Apparently, quite a bit of my problem was related to running out of protected 
memory on my USB sticks. Perhaps a warning should be posted somewhere that 
more protected memory (or larger capacities) on SoaS sticks is better - since 
SoaS/Fedora is getting larger, and now that pre-installed activities cannot be 
easily deleted.

(I note, for the record, that most pre-installed activities *are* eraseable in 
Strawberry, all except Etoys on Blueberry, and some on Mirabelle. This option 
freed up space and allowed for greater user-customization - a desirable 
situation in *some* cases certainly.)

Just curious: are different versions (i.e., Strawberry, Blueberry, Mirabelle, 
etc.) of SoaS tailored to specific deployments? If not, why are there such 
variations in installed activities and whether they are regarded as permanent 
or not?

  The only activities where deleting is disabled are pre-installed ones. The 
ones you install should be able to be deleted. If not, this is a bug.

  Regarding the decision to make pre-installed activities permanent, it is 
driven by Sugar deployments: teachers requested that certain activities always 
be available. Which ones is a deployment x deployment decision. For SoaS, we 
have a very limited set of pre-installed activities, but as the Fedora image 
grows, the user-space shrinks.

  FWIW, from the Terminal Activity, you can delete the pre-loaded activities in 
/usr/share/sugar

[Sugar-devel] Csound MIDI with Mango Lassi (and later)

2011-06-02 Thread Art Hunkins

@ Peter:

Please disregard my report that Csound MIDI was not working correctly in 
SoaS Mango Lassi or the latest nightly builds of Fedora 15. MIDI is working 
fine - my mistake.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [DESIGN] multi-selection in journal

Hi Martin,

 Hello Amigos,
 
 Lately I have been working on the support for multi-selection in the
 journal. This feature was originally part of Dextrose3's TODO [1], but
 during EduJAM [2], many people were interested in having it on Sugar
 mainstream, so I will give it a try ;)
 
 I already have a functional prototype running on sugar 0.9.x (check
 video!) [3], its design was based on different ideas and proposals
 [4,5]. My current patch does the minimum required to get this working,
 avoiding any big code re-factoring or massive rewrites (for now).
 
 Anyway, I would like to hear everyone's feedback on the current design!

First, thanks for taking this challenge on!

 Thanks in advance,
 tch

Nice movie :) some quick general questions/comments:

- When clicking Select all does it only select all the currently visible 
objects? When clicking Select none does it clear the tick selection from 
hidden objects?

- I'm not convinced changes to object details while in the multi-select mode 
should change the filtered selection shown. You show in the mpeg un-favouring 
an object in detail view and it disappearing while still being ticked for a 
multi-select operation, will this hidden but still ticked object be operated 
on? Keeping the two workflows separate might help – step one, if needed set 
your filter to narrow down the number of objects displayed; step two, activate 
multi-selection (this list is now locked in), make your checkbox selection, 
take action. Or perhaps any selected objects that are filtered out could simply 
be de-selected?

- A slight variation to this design raised a while back is to pick up on how 
most iPad apps now deal with multi selection lists. Rather than always showing 
a long line of checkbox clutter, consuming screen space, have a distinct Edit 
button in the main toolbar. Once clicked display the checkboxes next to each 
object ready for multi-selection, once cancelled hide/clear the checkboxes. 
This button could perhaps be a single toggle icon that looks like your current 
Select all/none icons, and would also provide continuity toggling between the 
two toolbars (i.e. the multi-select on/off button would have the same placement 
in each, the far left would seem a likely position). This might also avoid a 
tick box vs. favourite star confusion.

^^^ FWIW the above 'always show all checkboxes vs. edit mode toggle button' I 
seem to remember had an even split when it was last discussed – so likely no 
clear winner.

- Need to make sure it is very obvious how to get out of a multi-select mode. 
We don't want to end up with another mode confusion as in Home favourite vs. 
list mode.

- If Journal is in the multi-select mode, do you still get the mono action 
hover palette pop-up? Can you still resume an object?

I do like all the confirmation dialogues when performing operations on multiple 
objects. Also it's a nice touch that deleting all multi-selected objects also 
de-activated multi-select mode, where as the copy to action keeps the 
multi-select mode as is in case you want to perform extra steps on the current 
selection :)

Great to see multi-select moving forward at last!

--Gary
