I have identified a bug that I think is a duplicate of SL#496. Can someone please confirm?
I've got this logged at https://dev.laptop.org.au/issues/784 The journal does not open or save directly from/to external media. If, say, a USB drive is used, the file is copied to the datastore before being opened. Changes are written to the version in the datastore and not to the version on the external media. Read test To reproduce: on another computer, copy some files (I used JPEGs) to a USB stick put the stick into an XO in the journal, look at the USB stick click on the file that you copied Expected behaviour: the associated activity opens the file on the USB stick is opened directly Actual behaviour: the file is copied to the journal the associated activity opens the file is opened from the journal Read/Write test To reproduce: open Write type some stuff: "AAAA" quit the activity to save insert a USB stick in the journal, drag the Write file to a USB stick open the Write file from the USB stick type more stuff, so that the content is now "AAAABBBB" quit the activity to save open the file again from the journal you'll see that the content is "AAAABBBB" quit the activity open the file again from the USB stick you'll see that the content is "AAAA" Expected behaviour: the file opened from the USB stick should contain "AAAABBBB" Actual behaviour: the file opened from the USB stick contains "AAAA" Sridhar Dhanapalan Technical Manager One Laptop per Child Australia M: +61 425 239 701 E: [email protected] A: G.P.O.
