[Sugar-devel] 2 idea's to train people dyslexia
Hi, I am not a dyslexia expert, maybe a bit more that average. idea 1 Today I read in a newspaper that it helps people to let them hear what they (words not the characters). People made commerial software for and improved really the performance of kids. idea 2 typetrainers (learning to type with 10 fingers) tend to teach character by character . Teaching by words would be way better since people use the word image (not the character by character scanning) idea 3 I combination of 1 and 2 maybe creates new use cases in developed countrys like mine. A remix of speak (like a always on button) would do a major job I think 2ct Marten -- Marten Vijn linux 2.0.18 OpenBSD 3.6 FreeBSD 4.6 http://martenvijn.nl http://opencommunitycamp.org http://wifisoft.org ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel

[Sugar-devel] soas2
hi, When i make drives with: Soas2-200904031934.iso Soas2-200903131725.iso Under ubunutu with livecd-iso-to-disk.sh I get grub loading and end in een grey screen. Here the boot halts. Reproducable with: - qemu - alix1c board - EEE 701 Fidling a bit show a grub display, with crambled characters and a warning "password required". This is probably the grub passwd.

[Sugar-devel] administrator / user questions
Hi, May these question on the wrong list: but looking at http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/ this could be the place. (intro about me below) My questions: - could/will be there be a way to change the FLUKS password in the GUI? - for mass deployments (or shop) setting a onetime FLUKS passwd would be handy, espacially if such could be done from the script. - should I post/discuss feature requests here or post them as bugs? Background: My name is Marten, I am a user of Sugar on a Stick and selling sticks/cf-image for (non tech-)common people. Parts of my income (time/money is spend on FLOSS project. My focus is on creating infrastructure for kids on school based on FLOSS. My background is a unix sysadmin, but I am not a developer in c++ or python. My current project goal is 30 kids on a mediawiki using soas in may-june 2009. read more on http://martenvijn.nl kind regards, Marten -- Marten Vijn linux 2.0.18 OpenBSD 3.6 FreeBSD 4.6 http://martenvijn.nl http://opencommunitycamp.org http://wifisoft.org ___ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
