I didn't write those backup/restore scripts and you're not linking or attaching them either, so the short version is "I dunno!". The only back/restore scripts I'm aware of (outside the XS stuff) were written by dsd (cc'd). > Frankly, I don't understand how the restore script is supposed to work: > it rsyncs the files into ~/.ds-restore-tmp and then quits without moving > them where the datastore is. > > I tried moving the files manually into ~/.sugar/default/datastore and > restarting Sugar, but nothing shows up.

Is anyone working on this? I'm working on the XS-based backup/restore and there is definitely such listing there :-) and you can restore particular files from particular dates... cheers, m -- mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
