[Sugar-devel] Sugarizing an application
Hi. When I execute an application written in C and gtk with a "normal user" (not the root user) it looks fine, I mean sugarized (for example with rounded entry text). But if i execute it with the root user it looks without the sugar theme. On what it depends? Thanks Daniel ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
Re: [Sugar-devel] Sugarizing an application
I am testing the client gnome-ppp to connect the Xo with a modem 3G. When I execute the client using consolehelper and pam (or the root user) the application looks without the sugar theme. When I execute the binary file of the client (/usr/sbin/gnome-ppp) it looks "fine".

Re: [Sugar-devel] Sugarizing an application
First, I tried to sugarized gnome-ppp (made with C and gtk) and execute it as an activity. But it doesn't looks fine. Now i am thinking in rewrite gnome-ppp in python like "native" Activity. The problem that i have, is that I need to execute wvdial as root and write the resolv.conf file with the dns configuration. How can I run things with root privileges? Thanks.

[Sugar-devel] Sudo in Fedora release 9
I have the version "OLPC release 9 (Joyride)" of Fedora, I want to configure the sudoers file to allow users to run some commands as root using sudo. But I couldn't do it. As I see it, the sudoers file in this fedora has been done by OLPC. This is true? Can I install the "conventional" sudo command in this distribution?

Re: [Sugar-devel] Sugarizing an application
In a short term we are thinking in develop an activity to interact with wwdial. In the future we are planning to test Sugar 0.8x and Network Manager 0.7, and change our activity to interact with networkmanager. We should investigate the way to interact with networkmanager (a set of APIs or something like that). Regards.

Yes, we managed this possibility. In this case I need to study (and I need support) to know how implement it according to the sugar architecture, and discuss which is the best dialog to configure and use this connection.

[Sugar-devel] [DESIGN] CMDA/GSM/3G Modem Support in Sugar
We are thinking in add CMDA/GSM/3G Modems Support in Sugar. We want to discuss the best interface to allow user configure and use this type of connections. The basical idea that we managed is to have an option in control panel to allow users to setup the connection, and a device icon in the bottom frame where users could connect and disconnect it. If is possible when the SO detect the new device, sugar could show the device icon and a shortcut to setup it. The fields that user should configure are: Tel Number, User Name and Password (which more?) We should discuss if we will allow configure many conections or just one.

Re: [Sugar-devel] adding 3G devices support to sugar
In Uruguay we need "USB_SERIAL_OPTION" for 3G Modems. Martin, I could test your work using 3G Modems. I could help programming the control panel and the device icon too.

Re: [Sugar-devel] [DESIGN][FEATURE] 3G modem support
As I told before I have made some improvements to this feature: tickets 1652-"Add Connection Information" and 1654-"Add Pin/Puk Configuration" (i wrote this in the feature page). To add Pin/Puk configuration support I need to handle the "Authentication Error". Now i am setting the message "Authentication Error" on the palette label. This message dissapear when user clicks. This is a good first version to display errors?

[Sugar-devel] Tickets status - 3G Feature
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. Regards, Daniel -- Ing.

*Design Meeting Summary* - Apply Ebens Mockup to the 3G Connection Pallete. ( http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/File:3G_device.png). We have the icons: sugar-artwork/icons/scalable/actions/go-down.svg sugar-artwork/icons/scalable/actions/go-up.svg sugar-artwork/icons/scalable/actions/media-eject.svg - Display the connection errors in a similar way that Alert shown when control panel configurations requires restart. Will be great if Eben could make a mockup adding this. - The Device icon should change when the connection is established (we need a new device icon for this) - Align the control panel options (left align) and write a better description of each field (For the next version the wizard made by aa could be added http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/1630) ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

Re: [Sugar-devel] Status of printing support?
I have spoken with the developers of the GoSC [1] Andres Ambrois and Vamsi Krishna Davuluri about this topic, some time ago I've spoken with Tomeu too. I have read the discussion about this topic on the list [2] and I am not sure if the community has a consensus about the solution. About GoSC, I have tested the Print activity and works fine. I've wrote a new wiki page about this feature, with the goal of separate the work done on GoSC and the feature that we want in Sugar [3]. A solution could be add an option to the journal to print some types of entries. Here in Uruguay the first goal is to bring the possibility of print using a local printer. I know that Vamsi wants to work on this feature, and obviously me too. Finally, sorry for the delay!

Re: [Sugar-devel] Sugar Labs Roadmap.
Just to share information about Uruguay. Here we gave classmate machines to some of our teachers. They prefer this laptops, instead of XO, because have a better overall performance. This machines have Ubuntu with Sugar Sweets Distribution. We prefer Ubuntu, instead of Fedora as Linux Distribution, because has Long Term Support. Additionally this, the provider has more experience in this distribution. Today we use Fedora because is the Operating System of OLPC, but in case we start to use other hardware we will prefer other linux distributions.

When I want to change the page the activity get stuck. Maybe this depend on the epub format version that I am testing. Do you know if the activity FBReader for sugar 0.82 and the activity Read for 0.84 have some problem?

[Sugar-devel] Problem with Jhbuild and Fedora 11
I think that we talked about this problem before, I want to install jhbuild on fedora 11 and I get this error message. Seems like the problem is a dependency between jhbuild and gtk. should Jhbuild work over f11? ___ checking for METACITY_MESSAGE... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.20.0) were not met: Requested 'gtk+-2.0 >= 2.20.0' but version of GTK+ is 2.16.6 Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.

The trac ticket suggest a new behavour: "The download event record, as a system event, might have a 'hide event' option or not be erasable. The code bundle behind the event should, perhaps, only be erased from the Home list view (installed-Activity-code-bundle management), while system or Activity events and their associated object instances are managed from the Journal of Activity event instances."

[Sugar-devel] Problem with Read activity and screen rotate feature
We want to read books using the rotate screen capability of XO. We have a small problem, if we open a book (pdf, epub) and we rotate the screen, the game pad buttons have the same use that the screen in a normal position, I mean that user have to click in the "left game pad" button (the down button in horizontal position) to go to the next page. I think that all the game pad buttons have to be adapted according the screen position. We want to know how can we catch the rotate screen event, and be sure that this change in "Read" behaviour activity has sense. Regards, Daniel -- Ing. Daniel Castelo Plan Ceibal - Área Técnica Avda.

Re: [Sugar-devel] Problem with Read activity and screen rotate feature
Thanks for the information! I've tested the build 351. I realize that the "Directional Pad" change the Behaviour when the screen rotate. Great! However, in the Read Activity the "Directional Pad" is useful for go forward line per line, but if you want to change the page you have to use the "Game Buttons". So, for Read Activity will be useful adapt the "Game Buttons" too. What do you think?

Re: [Sugar-devel] Problem with Read activity and screen rotate feature
I understand that user could associate the symbols of each game pad button (square, circle, etc.) to mean certain things, But in Read Activity is not the case, is like an exception. Users will associate "Down" And "Up" buttons (depending on the screen position) with the PageUp PageDown action. So, in my opinion and the experiencie of teachers in schools, will be more intuitive for user change the action of each button when screen rotate. Do yo know if I can catch the screen rotate event in the activity? Thanks for your answers.

[Sugar-devel] Problem downloading files using Browse Activity
We have some problems using browse activity V120. We can't download files attached in gmail (apparently happen with many sites) The activity doesn't show any error message. If I read the log I get:: ERROR:xpcom:Unhandled exception calling 'int8 createChromeWindow(in nsISomething, in uint32, out retval nsISomething);' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1/python/xpcom/server/policy.py", line 277, in _CallMethod_ return 0, func(*params) File "/home/olpc/Activities/Browse.activity/browser.py", line 149, in createChromeWindow parent_dom_window = parent.webBrowser.contentDOMWindow AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'webBrowser' 1298464623.020300 ERROR xpcom: Unhandled exception calling 'int8 createChromeWindow(in nsISomething, in uint32, out retval nsISomething);' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1/python/xpcom/server/policy.py", line 277, in _CallMethod_ return 0, func(*params) File "/home/olpc/Activities/Browse.activity/browser.py", line 149, in createChromeWindow parent_dom_window = parent.webBrowser.contentDOMWindow AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'webBrowser' ERROR:xpcom:Unhandled exception calling 'int8 createChromeWindow(in nsISomething, in uint32, out retval nsISomething);' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1/python/xpcom/server/policy.py", line 277, in _CallMethod_ return 0, func(*params) File "/home/olpc/Activities/Browse.activity/browser.py", line 149, in createChromeWindow parent_dom_window = parent.webBrowser.contentDOMWindow AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'webBrowser' 1298464625.116524 ERROR xpcom: Unhandled exception calling 'int8 createChromeWindow(in nsISomething, in uint32, out retval nsISomething);' Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1/python/xpcom/server/policy.py", line 277, in _CallMethod_ return 0, func(*params) File "/home/olpc/Activities/Browse.activity/browser.py", line 149, in createChromeWindow parent_dom_window = parent.webBrowser.contentDOMWindow AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'webBrowser' I found this ticket http://bugs.sugarlabs.org/ticket/776 Have you got any idea?

Re: [Sugar-devel] [DESIGN] Proposal: Simple messages notification system
This feature is very useful for us. For example we use it to notify users about the release of new software images and to publish information about contests that Ceibal promote. To send the notifications we use our updater system.

[Sugar-devel] Hulahop Support
Hi. In Uruguay we use the program JClic, one of the componentes of this program required hulahop. Do you know if the library has support now? I know that the new Sugar Browser is based on Webkit.

[Sugar-devel] Turtle Blocks and sensors
We are using this activity http://activities.sugarlabs.org/es-ES/sugar/addon/4027 and the differents blocks to use sensors in XO and Classmate machine. We realized that in a Classmate machine the blocks "resistance" and "voltage" are not displayed. We want to know if the activity checks if the laptop could use this feature or has a "hardcode" check to distinguish XO's machine for others. Thanks Regards. -- Ing.
