A few weeks ago Bryan and David reported breakage with xs-config, and
over the last week over various tests we've had xs-config updates
making a mess of already-configured XS setups. I haven't had a chance
to look at it but yes, it is a high priority bug, and I'll be working
on it asap.

Martin,
Thanks for your note. Unfortunately, it left me with more questions than
with answers. Some questions include:
* What use cases are you trying to support?
* What threats obstruct supporting those use cases?
* What trust structure are you trying to create and how does it

Hi! I've got good and bad news.
I tried BrowseNew, and it works fine for pictures uploading! As you can see,
I could upload pictures from an XO for the edublog. Question: Isn't it
possible to resize the picture?
I also tried pasting pictures from the clipboard and from Write (Ctrl-C

The comment about "Debian version" reminds me to ask about man and info pages.
Is there a set of man pages that matches the packages for various XO
installations? Since XO disk space is small I expect an online or

Hola Martin como va todo.
Como ya te comentó Edgar aun no hemos configurado el servidor.
Voy a hacer las preguntas pertinentes en la lista server-devel, tal como nos
recomendaste.
Si necesitás más información me avisas para mandartela.
Muchas gracias por la ayuda.

Hi Tarun,
Not sure I fully understand that but it doesn't seem like a critical
issue to me.
The workflow I think we should support if we can is:
- Open write
- Add text and images
- Exit write ("Keep" first or just exit)
- Open Browse
- Click insert image link in EduBlog

I agree with Greg you've done an excellent work! We will always have new

Today just after noon (edt) our Qwest internet connection (not the one the EDU
server is on) went down. I was in the middle of upgrading the DNS servers so it
frustrated that task enormously.
Qwest seemed to have the service more or less restored by 4:30 PM or so. At
that time I noticed an ema

I'm not sure what the Linux support for that machine (MIPS) will be.
I gave one to Dennis Gilmore (late of OLPC, now at RedHat)
and he said he was very happy with it as a server.

Hi John,
Thank you for your comments. We will receive - hopefully soon - two units and we
will try to customize the XS server according to the mips architecture.
The debian-mips mailing list seems to be an important source of information in
that concern.

As per ticket #7606, until now XO users have had full shell access
over ssh. This (with related commits in ds-backup and xs-config),
confines them to rsync over ssh only.
The update_users.py script fixes existing users, while create_user
will now set the shell of new
XO users were being given their UUIDs as passwords, which was
unnecessary.
In case the user storage system changes again in the future, the post
installation scripts reference /home/idmgr/storage_format_version to
decide what to do.
diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index
The status returned by "/etc/init.d/idmgr stop" is less often the inverse
of its actual success.
"/etc/init.d/idmgr start" will not start if the daemon is already running.
"/etc/init.d/idmgr condrestart" works.
diff --git a/conf.schoolserver/idmgr b/conf.schoolserve
This removes the named XO users from both the SQL and system databases.
To remove all users, use something like
/home/idmgr/remove_user `sqlite3 /home/idmgr/identity.db \
"select serial from laptops"`
diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index fad74be..1065310 10064
The create_user script tries to give useful information to syslogd, and
ensures that the username it is given is a valid XO serial. It also checks
the ssh public key, but is not terribly strict. If a system user is created
but some later process fails, create_user tries to re

JARs look good but there don't seem to be decent cli tools to deal
